The Terrible Slaughter of Birds foI
Millinery Uses is Rapidly En-
terminating the Feather
ed Flocks of the
World.

Let the world bid its sad farewell
to its feathered folk in millinery
modes continue their slaughter, says
dispatch. Certain species of the
rarest and most beautiful birds are
threatened with determination at no
distant date. In one market alone
lately We're sold at one time 10, 900
humming birds $4,000 parakeets, 15.-
900 kingfishers. 10000 aigrettes and
thousands of other gorgeous south
ern birds of different kinds, as well
as doves and even sparrows. France
receives every year from America
Tonkin and India millions of birds
which are exchanged for millions OF
dollars. The number of small birds
annually imported into England and
France may be computed at l 100000
Germany exports nearly 20,000,000
feathers, which are worked up in Eng
land into hat trimmings. In London
there are held every month sales of
birds skins and feathers. India sup
plying some 100000 feathers alone
The South American republics are
awakening to the danger of exter~
mination of their most ornamental
birds and have passed laws regulating
their slaughter In America has been
formed a league whose members fore
swear the wearing of feathers.

One often hears the expression
MY child caught a severe cold which

PALMA TROPHY LAPSES.
British Rifemen Decide Not to
Compete This Year.
WHILE HOPPE

II has been decided that there will be no contest
for the Palma trophy this year, although the Ma
tional Rife Association Of America had hoped that
the invitation Of the Dominion Rife Association Of
Canada TO shoot the match on the range at Ottawa
would be accepted by the British riaemen. Recent
CORES espondenca. however. between Lord Cheyles-
more, Of the National Rife Association Of Great
Britain. and General Spencer, president Of the Ma
tionaI Rife Association of America, settled the
matter adversely
The Canadian association was desirous Of having
the match, and even willing 10 consider the posi-
bity Of match without the English participat-
ing, but the National Rife Association OF America
at a recent meeting decided that unless a British
team entered it would not be wise TO have this
match at all this year. II is hoped that by 1907
some arrangements may be made by which a shoot
may be held. the British participating.
On March Colone: John T1lton. chairman OF
the Dominion Rife Association OF Canada, wrote
to General Spencer. as follows:
Touching the question suggested in yours Of the
here is thas the contest for the Palma trophy at
Ing part therein IT. however. ever England declines to
SEND team have no objection to take up with
the executive of the Dominion Rife Association the
changed conditions
This letter was submitted to the executive COM
mttee of the National Rife Association OF Amer
ica, which committee came to the conclusion that
if a British team did not enter It would be better
for an American team not to enter and Colonel
Ttlton was so advised by General Spencer. as fol-
lows:
A meeting Of the. executive committee of the
National Rife Association Of America was held on
the 18th inst al which the view was expressed
mat unless British team entered in the
Palma trophy match il would seem inadvisable
for the United States to send a team. AS a matter
Of fact. what we desire is good, friendly honest
competition with the best British team as we'll
as your own and other teams, and unless we can
meet the British team We hardly claim TO have
wiped out any feeling that may have arisen on ac-
count OF the last match
Subsequently. and under date of March g. General
Spencer received a letter from Lieutenant Colonel
c. R. Cross, secretary Of the National Rifle Asso-
caton OF Great Britain, in reply TO his letter TO
Lord Cheylesmore, as follows:
beg 70 inform you that your letter was con-
sdered by my council at the meeting held yester-
cay and was instructed to reply that they regret
they do not see their way TO send a British team
70 canada 10 take part in the proposed match for
the Palma trophy.
The best of feeling has been evinced IN the cor
respondence between General Spencer Lord
Sheyiesrnore and Colonel T1lton. and they are con-
haent that matters may be adjusted so that in
l@f the Palma trophy contest may be revived with
the best Of feeling prevailing.

EAGER TO SAIL ETHER
Many Want to Go BaIJoOning 5pitb
Count de la VGuLp.

Count de la Vaulx. the French aeronaut will
make his first ascension in this country at West
Point on Saturday. Cortlandt F. Bishop, chair
man Of the racing committee of the Aero Club,
has been overwhelmed with applications from
persons who want to go UP with the count but
the crew will not be chosen until just before the
ascent.
a special car for the accommodation Of the
members of the club and friends will be at
tached to the 11;l5 m. train on the New York
Central 1t will reach Garrsons at 12:4O O'Clock.
where a ferryboat will be waiting. The ascension
will be made as soon as the party arrives at
West Point
It had been hoped to have the ascent on Sun
day because there are many who cannot devote
entire day to the sport during the week.
Mr. Bishop has received a great many letters
from persons who were never known to have
any interest in balloOning, saying they would be
ready to go any reasonable distance to see the
ascensions of Count de la Vaulx II they could
be held on Sunday.
General Mills superintendent Of the Military
Academy, decided. however that it would not be
proper to have ascensions on a government res
ervation on Sunday.
Two of the Frenchman's balloons-the Ludion,
with a capacity Of $4,000 cubic meters of gas
and carrying two persons, and the Orient, with a
capacity of $4,000 cubic meters, and carrying
three persons-wiu be taken to West Point on
Friday night. The one to be used in the flight
will be chosen and filed on Saturday morning.
An intimation that the Aero Club might find
some other place for it's ascensions has stimu-
lated the officials of the Pittsheld Coal Ges
Company TO hurry the installation Of the large
pipes it promised TO put in for filing balloons.
Word was received from the secretary yester-
day that everything would be IN readiness on
April g.
with our new connections" he writes, II
think we should be able fill a large balloon
of $1,000 cubic feet in about an hour, If your
tendants can dance about and adjust the ballast
rapidly enough"
There is. not gas works in France that can do
that"
If the gas company keeps its word arrange
ments will be made for an ascension by Count
de la Vaulx at Pittsheld a week from Saturday
Sunday. The famous balloon LIE Centaure,
with a capacity Of $4,000 cubic feet and carry
ing four or five persons, will be used. Mrs.
Newbold L r. Edgar will be o. the passen-
gers in the car, and possibly one or two other
women will accompany her. She has article
on ballooning in current periodical.
Count de la Naulx will be the guest at a re-
ception under the Joint auspices Of the Aero
Club and the Automobile Club at the home OF
the latter No. 1853 5th avenue, next Tuesday
night. He Will give a lecture balloOniug
