Slayer of Many Grouse and Woodcock for New York
 Markets Is Dying.
One of Last of Adirondack Gunners Who Had Followed Pot-Hunting for Sixty Years and Had 1t
 Reduced to Science.

Corinth, N. Y.-David Ellis is one of the best known hunters in the val ley of the upper Hudson and one of it's most successful fishermen, but he is on his back now, sick unto death. Worn out" the doctor says; Ellis says the game law broke his heart
 Ellis belongs to the old market hunt CT class and is one of the last of a famous line of men-the men who made business of supplying the New York and Saratoga markets with ruffed grouse (partridge) and wood cock. As to eating the birds, he would never have any of that. He began by selling grouse at $1 a pair and in late years he received as much as $2 a pair and on special occasions he got even larger price. Consequently it seemed like sheer waste and eytrava- gance to eat such birds when one could purchase chickens for not more than a quarter, "and chickens are lots better eating, anyhow" he used to say.
 Ellis was 10 when he began hunting. That was 60 years ago. His father was an old canaler, who made money and finally became the owner of a number of canal boats and property estimated at $100,000. They tell of him that he paid $50 one election day for train to take him to Saratoga in time to vote, for he was a good patriot and rather shrewd politician, too. The old mans property gradually dis appeared and when he died he left his son a house to live in and a love of the sporting life. The boy had hunted and fished for fun; he now hunted for fun and money, too.
 He was regular old horse down to two or three years ago." it is said of him. What he had to do he did like steam engine. It was up before day and to bed at midnight and up again in the morning with him when flight of woodcock was on or the partridge hunting was good on the hills"
 Lest he waste any time he fished for trout, too. He would never hunt in a storm, but if the birds were to be had he would hunt right up to the begin ming of the storm and then if it was a trout day he would turn from hunting to fishing. Should the weather clear up and the fish stop biting he would go back to hunting again. He tells of starting out with gun and pocket fish rod many time.
 Once he started hunting and about six o'clock a shower came along. That made good fishing, and for nearly two hours he tished. Then it cleared up and he could hear the cartridges fly ing down from the shelter of the hem locks. So he folded up his rod and took the gun from the hollow tree and hunted. Another shower came along and he hid the gun and fished. So it went all day. He hunted five times and fshed four times that day and when night came he had five pairs of grouse, three pairs of woodcock and seven pounds of trout.
 That's what I call good sport" he said, in telling the story. Sometimes feel like I want to fish with one hand and shoot with the other. I want to see a bird fly up with one eye and snap trout as he rises to a fly under the other eye. That's the

hunter can shoot it with little danger to himself, or he can drive it down and then slay it with a knife. Such sport is to be had in abundance at the present time in the Big Blaekfoot country.
 Wolves and coyotes are doing some damage on the Helena forest reserve this winter, according to reports re- ceived by Dwight Business, supervi- sor, from the Big Belt and Crow creek districts of the reserve. One hunter is at work on the Big Belt division wolves and coyotes. The appointment of another hunter to kill the animals has been recommended.

Muscles Turning h1to Bone

'In the case of horsemen," he said, there have been many cases where the muscles of the thigh, when used to grip too tightly, have turned con- pletely into bone and have had to be cut out. Such bones are still served, of course, by the blood vessels which formerly served the muscles. There is a specimen at the Royal College of Surgeons museum which shows a con- plete back muscle which has under gone the remarkable change I have re- ferred to. Rest is the only thing one can recommend in such cases. There is no pain and the only danger is that man so affected is very brittle and the bone muscles are liable to break"

as it went out under the ordinary laws
OF commerce and trade
The subject has been considered by
more than one postmaster general, bills
had been introduced, and reports made
by committees. but il had never been
intimated that il would be wise to
withdraw these funds from the locality
of the postoffice and invest them in
government bonds. Our platform was
bottOmed upon the fundamental idea
that the money be put IN tne postOffices
should not be withdrawn by the govern
ment from that community
The power of the east over the west
in controlling the supply Of money IS
already too great, and what We have
done will add immeasura bly, to the east

Protect Country Banks.
In my judgment, if we want to pOpu-
larize postal savings repositories, and
GLOW them 10 fulfill the purpose we
have had in view, we must speedily
amend the law so that the country
banks will not be injured. and so that
money will be permitted TO perform
its full functions in the localities to
which it naturally flows.
In this connection 1 must be permit
ted TO dwell upon the proposition for
central bank. It will soon be live
question in American politics. and ii IS
high time that Republicans should give
it that fireside consideration which In
the end settles all public problems
Leaders may fret and fume about 1t;
they may write books about it; COM

it: the Congressional Record may be
filled with pages concerning II, DUt

ter the judgment.
Central Bank slavery"
The proposal has not yet taken defi-
mite form but it is in the air that GEN.
trail bank shall be established, with the
sole power of issuing paper money and
of determining, therefore, how much
money at any given time we shall
have. and how it shall be distributed
1 do not say that I viii oppose CEN
trail bank, but 1 20 say that / will OPP
pose any bank with the powers that !
have described, for if that misfortune
should befau US we would suffer finan-
cial slavery more complete even than
the industrial servitude which now at
flicts US.
In the consolidation of the great
banks now in progress we see the prep
aration for such condition. Already
a dozen men, or less, can exert an in
fluence which makes the country trecn

A CAT AND DOG SKIRMISh
in Which the Cunning and Resounae

StrategicaI Ability.

81 never fancied cats very much,

shifty and resourceful. and so it's
quite likely to be able to hold its own
against an enemy much larger and
more powerful than itself.
Here was a yellow cat moving at
n walk leisurely across the street
while at the same time there was
coming along this block dog. When
the dog saw the cat it started for II
as fast as it could go. and when the
cat saw the dog it turned on full
power at once and fairly jumped to
clear the remaining space to the other
side Of the street, where it halted
with its back against tall iron picket
fence and faced the dog.
Instantly the dog jumped for the
cat, but even more quickly up went
the cats paw to sweep the air down
ward, and a cats claws are very
sharp and dogs nose is very tender
and delicate, and the dog didn't close.
In a moment he jumped for the cat
again, but again the cat clawed him
off, or the fear of the claws was
enough to make the dog shy again.
But the next time evidently the
dog was going to close in and rough
house things and take the chances;
and do you know what the cat did
now? The cat is very compressible
creature; it can get through a very
small space; and now this particular
yellow cat backed in between two OF
those irC1 pickets to the inner side
of the fence; but it didn't run away.
1t stayed right there, close to the In
ner side Of the fence, which the dog
couldn't get through, and when the
dog came up for that last time the
cat struck at it again through the
fence with that swift, silent sweep of
its paw, swung this time, as 1t
seemed, with a sort of savagely cool
contemptuousness Then the foolish
dog ran away.
I'VE may not fancy the cat, but we
should err if we failed to give it at
least some measure Of admiration for
the shifty ability with which it holds
ats. own against its natural enemy"
