ture.
Turtles generally have special spots
in shallow water close to shore to
which they return every night, and
each animal has its own wallow or
burrow. where 1t remains when not
eating or travelling. 1t is in these
places that they are generally sought.
In pegging the aim Is to drive the
peg in the chimes of the carapace of
the turtle, as this offers the best hold
ing part and does the least damage to
the animal. When turtle Is seen the
pegger stands erect on the forward
thwart with his miniature harpoon
poised for prompt throw at the right
moment.
AS soon as the animal is hit it dives
and drags the boat forward at rapid
rate. 1t is very soon compelled to
come to the surface to breathe and is

crossed with the Seebright bantam.
This gave the rose comb and the laced
feathers. A further cross with the
partridge cochin fixed the color and
increased the size, while an admix-
ture of Plymouth Rock helped in the
establishment of the general type and
heightened the laying qualities. The
fowls thus produced were golden Wy

and feathers laced with black on
gold ground; but they had not one
drop of Wyandotte blood. They were
subsequently crossed with the white

The upper she'll OF the hawksbill Is
covered with thirteen plates, called
collectively In the trade the head.
The plates vary in thickness from an
eighth to quarter of an inch, accord
Ing to the age and size of the animal,
and weigh collectively from four to
six pounds. These plates form the
tortoise shell of commerce and bring
about SO pound.
In securing the plates the animal
must be handled while still alive. The
shell is first cut loose from the tur-
tie with knife. 1t Is then put into
boiler of boiling water, and In
about five minutes the plates can be
ripped off with a knife II allowed
to remain little longer in the water
the plates would drop off of their own
accord, but they would be injured by
too long submersion in the hot water
The Cubans use a knife heated al
most white and with this tear off the
plates and let the still living animal
go. Formerly the plates were de-
taehed from the bony framework by
laying the animal while alive on
hot fire or sometimes by soaking It
while alive In boiling water. Fortu-
nately these inhuman methods are
rarely practised now.
The under she'll of the hawksbilI.
called in the trade yellow belly and
by the fishermen calipee, is also saved.
After being dissolved by means of
chemicals it is used in the manufac-
ture Of meerschaum pipes. The up

Kept His Resolution.

We resolved last night to be kind
during the year 1910 and began the
first thing this morning. When we
reached Third and Division streets, at
7:15. to take a car downtown. man
and his wife and FIVE children got off
the car we were TO take. They had car
pet satchels and lunch baskets, and the
man asked if we knew where Ben Davis
lived. We knew the man was looking
for Ben to pay him a visit" so we
said Ben formerly lived in Atchison, but
moved away two weeks ago to Kansas
City. Ben hasn't moved but we re-
solved to Be Kind during 1910 and no
one wants a man with n wife and five
children to visit him. The visitors took
the car and went on downtown. If Ben
doesn't run into them today our first

A New Christmas Hymn by Bishop

the author of a Christmas hymn which
will probably take rank with the most
popular carols sung i'll America and
Britain. 1t has been set to music by Sir
Charles Villiers Stanford, the composer.
who is credited with having achieved the
"carol of the century," 1t is described
as an exquisite melody, which came as
an inspiration to the composer as he
walked through London streets 1t was
written with incredible quickness, the
whole being completed within eighteen
hours. The carol is not one sim
pie melody monotonously repeated for
each of the six verses, but each verse
contains a slight variation. The last
verse is sung largely in unison with a
bold organ accompaniment. The title of
the hymn is Carol, Sweetly Carol"

Manufacturers of Bricks Win a Cass

After an investigation extending over
a year. the interstate commerce commits
siol has announced that the rates
charged by the railroads for the trans
portation of fire brick, building brick and
paving brick from Central Traffic ASSOC
citation territory to the Atlantic seaboard
were unreasonable and should be re-
duced. An order, therefore, was issued
by the commission requiring the rail
ways to charge no more than 81 cents
per 100 pounds for the transportation Of
such brick from Central Traffic associa-
ton territory to points in the Eastern
Trunk Line territory during the two
years, beginning on the first of Febru-
airy next. The case was brought before

and West Virginia against practically

Key West, Fla. was for many years
the center of a prosperous fishery for
sea turtles but recently the business
has been rapidly dwindling owing to
the improvident methods employed
the young and the old and even the
eggs being gathered in without
thought of the future.
Three species of turtle, the green,
the loggerhead and the hawksbill, are
caught and handled by the Key West
fishermen and dealers, according to
an article in the Montreal Star The
green turtle is the most highly priced
for food. This turtle is found on the
Atlantic seaboard from Long Island to
Brazil. and at one time was especially
common on the keys along the Florida
coast.
The female turtle lays from 300 to
SOC eggs in season, burying them
I'm the sand and leaving them to hatch
without further attention Owing to
their many enemies 1t is probable that
but few of the young turtles survive
The loggerhead turtle occurs along
tho Atlantic coast from Virginia to
Brazil and Is common on both the
east and the west coast of Florida. It
rs more common than the green tur-
tie. which is undoubtedly owing to the
fact that 1t is the least valuable of
the marine turtles and there is little
demand for its flesh More eggs of
ttfs species are taken for food. how
ever, than of any other.

ably about 200 pounds.

ing laid generally during the night OF
full moon in June. A peculiar fea-
ture of the laying process is that moth
