HORNADAY, ZOOS
DIRECTOR, WILL
TALK TO HUNTERS

With William T. Hornaday, direc-
tor of the famous Geological Garden
at Bronx Park. as one of the speak
ers, the second annual dinner of the
Connecticut Fish and Game Associa-
ton, composed of prominent sports
men throughout the State, will take
place at the Stratfield, Friday even
ing.
Local Sportsmen who are members
of the club are highly elated, both at
the fact that the banquet Is to be
held in Bridgeport this year, and that
such prominent men have been Seclr-
ed as speakers. The toast list in
cludes, besides Prof. Hornaday, the
following:
E. H. Forbush, ornitholog1st Tor the
State Of Massachusetts,.
E. Hart Geer. secretary Of the Fish
and Game Commission of the State OF
Connecticut.
DIR. Herbert Job, ornithologist for
the state of Connecticut.
Prof. J. w. Tourney, director of the
School Of Forestry, Yale University.
Included in the attendance at the
banquet will be many famous sports
men. Including some of the members
of the "old guard, whose exploits of
years ago with gum and dog still go
the rounds among the outdoor enthu-
siasts.
Frederick Sturges Of Greenfield Hill,
is one of the prominent members OF
the association, and it is largely due
to his efforts that the banquet is to
be held in Bridgeport. Last year the
association banqueted at the Heube-
lin in Hartford.
The principal subject under discus
sion by the speakers will be the mat
ter of raising quail and partridge in
the State of Connecticut for restock-
ine, the fields, instead of sending out
side and importing the birds from
other countries. This experiment is
now in progress under the supervis-
ion Of the State ornfthologist and bids
fair to be a great success. 1t will be
a very important matter for the hunts
men il 1T turns out as expected, for
it will mean the preservation Of the
race of game birds. which is now rap
idly dying out owing to the steadily
population Of the State, the
number of hunters, the deadly mod
ern firearms, and the passing away
of the timber lands

ENGLISH GIRLS
ARE IMPORTED
Especial from United Press.


London, April 19--Absolute denial
that polygamy exists among the Nor
mons and an offer to submit the Nor
mon church to an investigation are
contained in messages from President
Smith OF the Mormon church and
Governor Spry of Utah, published in
today's London Express. The Elk
press cabled Smith for a reply to the
charge being circulated in England

the moral character of English girls
embracing Mormonism is being under
mined. He replied as follows:
Charges mentioned are absolutely
false No woman or girls are import
ed by the church from England or
any other country for immoral pur-
poses. Fair investigation will prove
this beyond question. While Star and
Dominion lines used for Mormon i'm
migration have full records concern
ing every immigrant. We court in
vestigation."
Governor Spry cabled that il the
English authorities will give him the
names of any girls alleged to have
been harmed by the Mormons. he will
''see that they are interviewed by
officers of the law and the results
