Sparrows XIII Turkeys.

English sparrows kill turkeys in Rhode Island, according to Dr. Philip B. Hadley. They convey the black head" disease, whose fatal prevalence among turkeys is threatening the ruin of turkey farming in the state. Dr. Hadley says that poultry. generally game birds. and some wild song birds, have the amoeba or coccidium. which causes the disease. and so. why he lays all the blame to the English sparrow does not quite appear, unless because the little pest has earned so bad name on other accounts. The British grouse are troubled in a way similar to the turkey. And the seri- ousness of the case is illustrated by Dr. Hadley in the statement that whereas 30 years ago Block island alone used to send out more than 40.- 900 pounds year, the turkeys now raised there can only be counted by dozens.

8ALLOT-STUFFING NOT NEW
Old Colonial Records Show Act Was Attempted in 1856 = The
 Punishment.

It is not necessary to give up our pious faith in the superior political morality of our forefathers when we learn that even in the first generation of Bostonians was found a ballot stuf fer.
 The same record which reveals this break records also its instant repudi- ation and punishment. It was on the fourteenth day of January, 1855, 25 years after the settlement of Boston, according to the quaint records pre- served of the kings chapel. that a referendum was held as to whether a part of the land should be alienated.
