and unless something is done looking
towards their preservation all small
game in West Virginia will be thing
of the past in year or two.
Wanton slaughter of small and large
game for marketable purposes both
in the state and for markets of other
states, it is charged, has been going
on at a great rate during the past five
years, and this OVERRIDING of hunting
makes more stringent game laws abso-
lutely necessary.

surrendered.
The story Of his escape and recapture

Is the subsequent career OF the convict
which has just come out that throws a halo
of romantic interest around him. William
johnson. the man from whom Goodwin had

tartan feeling. He had read Charles
Reade's Never Too Late to Mend" to some
purpose. He visited Goodwin in prison. and
became deeply interested in him. He formed
the opinion that Goodwin had good stuff in
him; that 1t was misfortune that had led
him into crime, and that given a chance to
make a start somewhere where his record
was unknown he might do well.

The Strength of Ferns.

From the Philadelphia Record.
Strength is not thing usually attributed
to maidenhair fern remarked a local
florist, and yet if it's roots have not suffi-
cient room they will break the strongest
flower pots. Blades of grass will force the
curbstones between which they spring out
OF place. Indeed, the strength In vegetable
growth Is wonderful. The most striking
example Is the Island of Aldabra to the
northwest of Madagascar The island is
becoming smaller and smaller through the
action of the mAngroves, growing at the
foot of the clhfs. The roots break off inn
mense pieces of stone which fall into the
sea- Into the gaps thus formed the waves
eat their way. In a few years it is likely
that by the combined action of the waters
and mangroves the island will disappear.

Training the Circus Horse.

From Leslie's Weekly
In purchasing an animal for circus-ring
bare-back-intuition in the purchaser
is perhaps a more important factor than
mere technical knowledge, but both are
important. However, beyond such intui-
ton, the points to be looked for are a broad

body. and broad. intelligent forehead. He
must be young and Of course. sound and
well marked. After he and the trainer
have met and come to know each other the
latter gets on him for a trot around the
ring, giving the animal his own gait for
a while. then bringing him into a lope
Next he is given a little spur-always point

milling worn down so that it does not cut

with many encouraging words until the

gets the idea that his trainers motives are
of the kindiest, it is surprising how quick
ly he responds in kind.
After the horse has been broken into a
proper gait, large pieces Of paper are scat
tered about the ring, sacks thrown I'D be-

off his back, pistols fired into the air and

Ing experience. and confidence in his mas
ter. who continually soothes him with re-
assuring words, is all that keeps the pupil
from going to pieces. But even then some
are panic-stricken, and the trainers motto
is: Take time-have patience" He then
works the novice around the ring with an
experienced animal. allows him to smell of
the saddle and other objects used. and bite
them If he wants to. But sometimes, even
after all this, the subject is found to be
too nervous to stand the strain, and he Is
turned out for a few days. weeks OF
months, or longer, as may seem best.
Early in his training the horse Is handled
all over, until he becomes so used to It
that he will not finch. After he has been
broken to gait and noises dummy rider

even after the circus horse has been
through all these experiences. he will some
times sulk. In that event the trainer gives
him "one-two'' across the front legs with
whip. and there Is no more sulkng after
that. for the impression Of this, his first
real punishment, is a lasting one. An lab.
