ANTI-INJUNCTIoN LAWS.
Congressman Townsend Has a Con-
 ference With President.

Washington, D. C.. May 13.-Oppo- sition of so important and serious q character has developed to the enact- ment by congress of anti-lnjunctiol legislation and the civil federation measure amending the sherman anti trust law that there is strong prob ability that congress will adjourn without action upon them.
 The situation with regard to the an- ti-injunction bill Is not so serious as it is amusing. A few weeks ago, Representative Charles F. Townsend, of Michigan, had conference with President Roosevelt. He became im- bued at once with the idea that the country was palpitating for the en- actment by congress of a measure limiting the power of federal judges in the issuance of iniunctiOns. par ticuarly in cases In which organized labor was involved. The president. himself, is in favor of the passage of such a law. In fact, he pressed the matter so strongly upon Representa- tive Townsend that the congressman rushed to his office at the Capitol and began at once to draft the measure. Subsequently. he presented 1t to the house. assured that it was one of the measures the country most needed.
 Now the assidous representative from Michigan is beginning to hear from every section protesting against letters and telegrams by tine basketful from the country. He is getting the enactment of his bill and other members of congress are being de- luged with protests against the pro- posed law. Most of those letters come from the commercial and manufac- turing interests of he counry. The letters received warn congress not to enact any such legislation unless it wants tO render business conditions even more serious than they have been in the past six months.
 And this is not all. The leaders of organized labor in the country 'lO not approve of the draft of Mir Town sends bill. He has tried hard tn sat- isfy them, but failed Practically no two of the important labor leaders agree as 10 just what shall be done. A the question is discussed the diff ference of opinion are becoming the more radical. Mir Townsend Is dis turbed.

BIRDS ARE NESTING.
Gratifying Report Relating to Ac- CIimatIon of Hungarian Pheasants.

Local hunters will be pleased to learn fhst the commissioners on fisheries and game have received in- formation which proves beyond doubt that the Hungarian pheas- ants recently imported into this state. at considerable expense by the commissioners are becoming ac- climated.
 Commissioner Geer received a letter from a friend in ihe town Of Bedding the other day in which he stated that in passing along a road in that town near the woods. in which a number of pairs of the pheasants were recently liberated. one of the birds flew across the road and so close to him as to almost strike him. He followed the bird into the woods and discovered a pheasant's nest in which there were 14 eggs. This was the first report the commissioners had of the Hun earisn pheasants and l. shows that the experiment tO acciimafe the birds in Connecticut is a sucness-

 Just as wondrous floral millinery dis play has convinced the observer that ex- otics and wild flowers of every hue and family are to be used to the exclusion Of all other trimmings. sudden defiance of the Audubon Society Is manifested by an array of hats loaded with feathers lt Is sometimes difficult to recognize such familiar domestic fowl as the duck. tur- key and hen in their dyed plumage, for who has ever seen a live hen with pink wings, a duck with violet breast or turkey with 2 sapphire blue tall?
