Des Moines. Aug. 10.-The Iowa SUI

character of a fight between two men.
E. A. Clark indulged in a fight with
G. A. Boyd, in Jones county, and
came out with broken leg. He
wanted the Mystic Workers of the
World to pay him 5000 for his broken
leg on an accident policy. The Mys.

fight was in violation of the state

that it was lawful as far as he was
concerned, as the provocation was
sufficient.

| cumStan@eS connected with inns ease
the loss may be an irrepafaple oi.e'
and will be regretted not only ny the
loser but by all bird ana poultly
fanciers. Several years ago. MT. ret
! tiSreW sent to distant state ana pur
chased i Wild turkey. 1t was Il male
| bird and one Of flock that hau peeil
| captured at the nest at the time tnty
We're Matched. This bird was crossed
with a flock of bronze turkeys, sucn
as are commonly found III poultry
yards in this part of the state. Inc
| result of the cross was Il lot ol SouiiS
| birds of various colors ana appear
ances. Blu among the lot were several
| that We're especially conspicuous on
account of their very unusual colof'
| being light shade of red. AS they
| had the points of deSlraple Dlfd,
they Were taken from the 1locK ana
bred separately by the owner. The
result was that a considerable num-
Der of the next flock We're of the same
| conspicuous color. So that while the
birds of the first flock We're considered
a freak Mr.. Pettigrew conceived the
idea that he could develop distinct
species Or breed. With the object in
mind he continued to breed along the
line and was gratiied to find that each
year the flock was coming to the stan
| dard towards which he was breeding.
After several years of this kind OF eff
fort the breed became so firmly estab-
| lished that every turkey in the flock
bore the desired marks and color.
Aside from its color which appeals
strongly to fanciers the species is in
every way a practical and profitable
| ono. But at the present TINY the de-
veloper and owner of this breed is la
| boring under the fear that his efforts
have been set ut naught by the work
1 of the fox or foxes that have raided
his place. Only the old sobbler and
three of the young birds We're left and
while the latter are not old enough to
| determine definitely their sex, it is be-
lieved that all three are male birds.
Should this prove to be the case, it will
be impossible to continue the species
rs Mr.. PettiSrew is the sole owner of
| birds Of this breed and whether or not
more could be developed by again
crossing with the bronze is a matter of
that can only be determined by expert
ment, although it is believed that it
| would not be successful.
