United statea Authorities Arrest
Seventy-Seven PiumaEe Hunters.
The United States revenue cutter
Thetls put In at Honolulu a while dgO
with seventy prisoners, all Jap
nnese plumage hunters, who had been
captured on an American island while
engaged In their Illegal operations,
says writer In Field and Stream.
These men were sent out as hunters by
a Tokyo firm aud their destination
was Llniasky Island, known In many
regions as wonderful nesting place
for plumage birds.
This island Is In mid-Paci6c not far
from Midway Island. The fact that
II belongs to the United States did not
seem TO deter these oriental plumage
hunters. They had, besides the hunt
ers, a corps of sklnners and taxider-
mists. They went to work last Janu-
nry and collected a great many thou
sands of skins. Late In the same
month an ocean gale destroyed their
schooner, drowned some of the men
and left the rest marooned upon the
island.
A second Japanese vessel brought
about forty more hunters, who were
left to Join the others, the ship leaving
word that she would presently return.
She did not return. Meantime the war
with Russia broke out, Of which the
plumage hunters heard nothing In
any case they were very hungry when
finally discovered by the United States
revenue steamer, rescued and impris-
oned.
Captain Hamlet OF the Thetis says
they had wrought an appalling de-
struction. There were 3S5 cases of
plumage collected, and in all likelihood
more than 100000 plumage birds had
been destroyed. 1t would seem that
the records of the orient rival those of
Florida, Mississippi, Louisiana AMI
other parts of the United States,
where the very acme of thoughtless
destruction would seem to have been
reached.

studeuta Broke Them Up.

There are very few things that es-
cape the notice Of college students
when they appear Ell masse. This was
demonstrated at an uptown theater the
other evening when stirring melo-
drama was being enacted, says the
Philadelphia Record. A group of ten
students occupied the front row Of the
balcony. Just below them sat party
OF young women. II was when the
beautiful heroine was about to be
thrust out on the mercy Of a pitiless
world that tragedy was turned into
comedy. True to feminine emotional
nature, the feelings Of the group OF
women aforesaid were so wrought up
that tears hogan Ia flow. There WAS a
nasty struggle Tor nauukerciiieis, a
deep dive into pockets and bags and
then pause. Only one OF the six
girls had had the foresight TO provide
herself with a handkerchief.
With sympathetic glance OF com
prehension she wiped the tears from
her own eyes and then passed the bit
OF linen along. One by one the weep
ing maidens dabbed their eyes with the
handkerchief and then II was SNUG
gled back to the owner and the game
of progressive handkerchief was begun
again. The students saw all this, and
one OF them took a handkerchief from
his pocket TO wipe away imaginary
tears and passed 1t along the line. Loud
''sobs" drew attention to them. In a
moment the house was convulsed with
laughter. and 1t was only after mana
gerlai interference that the by-play
was stopped and the six maIdens with
the one handkerchief were spared fur
ther modification.
