Game Commissioner Farr, who is
co operating with W. f. Kendrick OF
Denver in an effort to establish the
Chinese and English ring neck phea-
SAINTS In Colorado, has sent three
settings Of eggs Of these famous game
birds to Canon City for experimental
purposes one of which was given to
Captain B. F. Rockafellow, one to
Dali DeWeese and one to Fl. s. Gar
linghouse. The eggs will all be set
under chickens and when the birds
are Matched they will be cared for
until big enough to fly when they
will be liberated In various parks of

The pheasant is the especial friend
of the orclardist and gardener and

John Sharp Williams, democratic
leader of the house, played clever
politics this week when he showed up
the hypocrisy of the so-called Big
Five" the little coterie which, head
ed by Speaker Cannon. runs the house
of representative. says our Washing
ton correspondent. Mr. Williams put
the republicans on record as opposed
to removing the duty on woOd-pulp
despite the presidents earnest recon-
mendation that this be done; to a law
prohibiting injunctions in certain la
Dor cases, and 10 the prompt enact
ment OF an employers liability law.
1t is perfectly obvious to those who
observe the course Of the house lead
ers from point of vantage that Mr.
Cannon and his colleagues are at
heart opposed to every reform meas
ure advocated by the president. Il is
true that they may try to enact some
halfway measures merely to save
their own faces at the polls next No
vember. but whatever they deem it
necessary as a matter Of self preser-
walton To do they will do with WY
faces. Speaker Cannon has himself.
for instance introduced a resolution
calling on the secretary Of commerce
and labor TO conduct an investigation
of the combine which makes wood
pulp papers and keeps the price at an
exorbitant figure to every publisher

merely a grand stand play" a bid

action which would be offensive to

ton will take time and while an in

Everyone who is interested in the
seal herd of Alaska will learn with
pleasure that there is some prospect
of the question of the protection of
the seals from pelagiac sealing being
opened up by the Canadians. For
years the United States has been try
ing to reach some agreement TO stop
this brutal form of sealing but every
time the Canadians have presented
some insurmountable objection. Now,
however, the Japanese sealers' have so
far monopolized the industry, if it
may be dignified by that name, that
it has become quite improbable to
the Canadians and it is expected that
they will themselves reopen the nego-
tiations with the United States,
which they formally and not too po-
litely ended. Pelagiac sealing, it may
be explained, is the practice of shoot
ing the adult seals three miles Or
more out at sea. The jurisdiction OF
the United States ends at the three
mile limit, but when the mother seals
are sucking young they are COM
PEELED to swim out more than that
distance in order to secure sufficient
food, their food consisting of the lar
ger fish. The pelagiac sealers shoot
them as they swim and the result is
that the unweaned pups, as they are
called, wait for the return of the
mother and, perfectly helpless, grad
ually starve TO death, for no seal will
adopt an orphan pup. If there were
an international society for the pre-
vention of cruelty to animals it
could not devote itself to a more wor-
thy cause than the abolition of this
cruel method of taking seals.

1t is said that the president will in
few days send another special mes
sage to congress advising special leg
islation for the suppression of an
archy. There is no doubt that he is
in earnest in this matter. Attorney
General Bonaparte, following instruc-
lions given him some days ago is
making careful investigation to find
if there is sufficient law to enable the
executive branch of the government
to suppress anarchy and he has come
to the conclusion that further enact
ment is necessary. Meanwhile fed
eral authorities have been instructed
to cooperate with state authorities
in an effort to drive the anarchists
across the sea. Those who have been
in the country less than three years
may be deported under existing laws.
Those who are American citizens by
naturalization will be closely watch
ed and information as to their where
abouts will be kept on file and other
governments will be informed as to
their movements. The circulation OF
anarchistic literature by mail will be
if possible, prevented, and those who
issue literature will be prosecuted
Anarchy is not Indigenous to this
country. 1t will be found that every
anarchist has a foreign name and in
nearly every instance is an imml-
grant 1t is said that if congress will
grant the necessary authority the
president will make treaties with Eu-
ropean states which will result in
an international movement against
these assassins not only of men, OF
kings and of presidents, but of order
ly government. Joint action against
anarchists was proposed by Germany
and Russia at the time of the assassl-
nation of President Mckinley. They
stated that the murder of President
Mckinley with the attempts upon the
the lives of rulers which have been
committed in recent years made it
plain that a struggle against anarchy
was urgent upon all governments and
that unless this movement could be
made international it would fail of
effectiveness.

ALWAYS HAD $40.
Two Men Arrested for Theft, and Had
Peculiar Pocketbook.

Hartford, April Chief of Police
f. Gum is having careful investiga-
ton made into the cases of two men
who were arrested here yesterday.
They give the names of Charles Da-
vison, 2S years old, of st Louis, Mo,
and Frederick Ward, 10 years old, OF
New York. They are suspected OF
theft.
One of the peculiar things about
them is that no matter how near
broke they might have been, they
were always able to show you $50
bill. Ward had in his possession,
when searched at the police station, q
purse with most unusual lining. The
lining was of isinglass and beneath
it showed a $40 bill every time the
purse opened. Furthermore, the bill
showed plainly that it was the outer
one of a roll" Altogether, 1t look
ed good, and the desk sergeant was
almost on the point of congratulate
ing the capitalist. when he discovered
that the 1920" was a 'phony" bill,
and that the inside roll was OF It's
sue paper. The object of such a
bluff is matter for conjecture.
The men were arrested for their
action at the store of Chamberlain &
Shaughnessy. No 60 Asylum street.
They entered the store shortly be-
fore noon. and asked 20 see some I'M
derwear They were SHOWN some gar
ments. and then they called for kind
which was not in stock. The clerk
volunteered to get it Cor them, and
while he stepped outside to oblige
them. a suit of underwear disappear
ed. The men were arrested by Police
men Flanagan and Roche. At Po-
lice headquarters they were searched
and one of the garments was found
wound around the body of one of the
men. under part OF his clothing. The
room in which they have been stay
ing. on Grove street, was located. hut
nothing was found there.
