 A well know huntsman of this section went out for few shots yes terday with the result that he came nearly landing in the police station for trespassiHg on private property and killing a couple of large cats which the owner cherished dearly. He was endeavoring to get some oil from the skins of those striped ami mals which belong to the cat family, and seeing couple, as he thought, at a distance he fired and both drop ped. Upon investigation he found them to be cats and he also found that the owner was not far away. The man who had lost his pets was in fight ing mood and was thinking of having the Middlebury authorities lock the hunter up. He was finally allowed to come home and hereafter when he wants oil he intends to buy it.
 Great interest was taken in the game at the Rye lots yesterday be- tween the Cadet Juniors and the Quakers, the former winning by the score of II to o, only about five min utes of the second half being played. There is intense rivalry between these two Brooklyn teams and they started at each other the moment the whistle was blown. Shortly after the end of the first half the Cadets scored but failed at goal The second half was only partly played but there was enough action in it to suit anybody. When the game stopped the score was II to 0 in the Cadets favor. The Quakers wanted the Juniors to go to another part of the field and finish the game but Coach Stein refused to al low his team to play any longer. It is too bad that these teams cannot ar range a game where the field will De roped off and their slugging cut out. It would make an interesting con test and would attract large crowd as the supporters of the elevens are very numerous.
