was in the sheep pasture. and though down
on the ground was chasing the sheep In q
very threatening way. lie managed to get
a shot at 1t on the ground. and his aim vas so
good that the bird was not Interested In any

six feet seven inches from tip to tip.
Saturday morning early VIII Cotterell. on
an adjoining farm. noticed n great commotion
among n flock Of sheep on his ather's farm.
He was confident that dogs were worrying
the flock. as they were running about if great
confusion. Hurrying 10 the pasture with his
gun. his surprise was great when he discovered
that the cause of the disturbance was a big
bird on the ground. making things lively for
the sheep. seemingly determined to have
fresh mutton for breakfast.
Frightened by the advent OF Mr.. Cotterell,
the hungry bird spread his great wings and
raised to a tree at the edge OF the field. But
he came TO the ground again without protest
in response to a message of greeting from
Mr.. Cotterell's gun This bird had a wing
spread Of seven feet Ave inches.

Flock OF PelIcans In Kansas.
From the PhtsburD Headlight.

The other day a large flock Of p~elicans
few over the town of Hepler. One Of the
birds was shot and it fell into the large rail-
road pond. After It had been shot the flock
lowered over the pond for three or four
hours. circling higher and higher till they
were out OF gunshot reach. O.
1t was after night before the flock aban-
doned the wounded bird and continued their
journey northward. The bird that was shot
was not killed. but was disabled in one Of
its wings. 1t is a fine large bird. standing
about 4 feet high and measuring 8 feet
from tip TO tip of its wings,
1t il as white as snow with the exception
that it has one or two black feathers In the
tip of the wings. Its beak is about one foot
in length, with a pouch underneath large
enoughto hold about one gallon OF water. The
flock had probably been disturbed and driven
out OF their course 10 the northern LAX es.

Drink Hour in Boston

The famous semicolon in the liquor law
which prohibited the sale Of liquor after II
o'clock at night, even in hotel dining rooms,
was blue penciled out by the voters Of
Boston in the election held today. The
citizens, by a majority Of about 1900.
voted to accept new law which will allow
drinks to be served in the dining rooms Of
Boston hotels up to midnight.
For the privilege OF selling between II
and - o'clock the hotel proprletors must
each pay $500 in addition TO their regular
license fee, and the number Of such spe-
cial permits is limited TO one for each 1900
inhabitants, or fraction thereof, as de-
termined by the last census.
1t is figured that according to the present
population these licenses can be granted
TO twenty-eight hotels this year. The law
takes effect on its acceptance by the voters
Of Boston. and the thirsty ones will be ac-
commodated just as soon as the excise
commission issues the permits.-New York

1.-THE Black Politician" may be rightly
termed a comedy success with music. The
situations are side-splitting and the ac-
ton Is speedy and consistent. AS Heze-
kiah Doc, Mr.. Dudley is nothing more
than a race track tout, but when requested
to pose as a great politician he rises to the
situation with all the grace and dignity
of an old campaigner. If catchy melody,
pretty girls, elaborate scenic embelsh-
mOnts, capable singers, dancers, comedians
and vaudeville performers. novelties, able
stage management, expensive and appro-
pirate costumes are any criterion this IN
