SEEMINGLY SUICIDE PACT
AMONG FROCk OF TURKEYS

Chico Cal.-Mrs Fannie Boydston,
residing on the Bell ranch. four miles
north of Chico, on the Nord road, is
the owner of band of 100 turkeys
that seem to have suicidal inclina-
tions. Already thirty-siX of the birds
have come to a tragic end by permit
ting passing trains to run over them.
Watch is being kept upon the birds
for fear that they will all display
signs of self-destroying inclination.
The Southern Pacific tracks run
through the Bell ranch. Mrs. Boyd
ston and her neighbors have witness
ed a number of turkeys fly straight
at the sides of a passing train. The
blow stuns the bird and in falling ii
is drawn under the train by the sue
ton and. of course, killed.
The voluntary death of the birds Is
the talk Of the neighborhood. Most
bands of turkeys are scary and stay
away from moving objects. Last
, week eight of the birds lost their lives
in this manner while the owner of the
fowls and her friends witnessed the
unheardof action of the birds.
What particular fascination NOV
ing train seems to have for the tur'
KEYS is a matter which is causing some
serious thinking among those wht

Carlisle. Pa.-The first Indian pow
WOW for years at the Indian school
here was conducted during the last
few days. when four dusky giant
cheyenne chiefs from the Tongue Rlv-
or reservation, in Montana. visited the
children of the tribe at the govern
ment's educational Institution, ana
later showed the marks of clVillzlng
influence when they quietly shipped
into a drug store and silently slipped
chocolate milkshakes.
At the powwow the four chiefs, to-
gether with the thirty Cheyenne stu
dents at the school. considered the ad-
yantages the white men are giving
them. Through an Interpreter they
talked to superintendent Friedman
and declared themselves more than
ever converted to education and that
they would go back to Their people
and talk and send them to the school
These same old fellows have been
strong opponents in the past of the
white mans education. More amaZ-
ing than anything else. the four chiefs
agreed that it would be best that theil
children should speak no Indian Ian
guage; that they should forget th'
past and seek citizenship in the fu

connected with his department. The
board of works on Thursday morning
was addressed by the commissioner

tective association, Mr.. Miles was the
principal speaker.
He declared that on subsequent
visit to Wayne county he will visit sew
ed to the state fish and game depart
ment as desirable places to locate a
state broodery of large proportions. II
any OF these sites are available, he
declared, the state would purchase
twelve or fifteen acres, build a large
lake and propagate fish spawn for the
restocking of streams in eastern In

come here and look over some of the
proposed sites.
The organization of rod and gun en-
thusiasts also was promised the hear
ty support of the state department in
any worthy effort to conserve the fish
and game in this county. Financial
aid will be lent, if necessary. The
commissioner was particularly inter-
ested in the work of the local body
and endorsed it's action in establish
ing a private broodery to restock
streams with small mouth black bass.
Spawn of rainbow and brook trout
will be placed in the Wayne county
streams within the coming year, MIR.
Miles declared. Cooperation of the
department with the local organiza-
ton was assured and local sportsmen
are more than pleased with the inter-
est manifested by the commissioner
in the work being undertaken here.

WHY PEOPLE DON'T

And Remedy for the Condi-

The Rev. ]. S. Lightbourn, rector of
St. Pauls Episcopal church, gives a
list of excuses made by several busy

And then as remedies, these same
men suggest:
Improvement in the preaching and
teachings.
Less interest in fashionable dress by
IN" congregations.
More consistency IN Christina li,,D.,
Services made more attractive and
better advertised.
The frst of these suggested i'm
provements is considered one of the
vital needs of Richmond churches by
Rev. Lightbourn. In his opinion, pas
tors all over the country have allowed
themselves to be called away by the
temporal needs of the church. neglect
ing their spiritual duties, His plan for
bringing his congregation into closer
association with the church, is 20 turn
the management of all finances, enter
tainments, and church societies direct
ly over to the vestry, or other lay
bodies. so that the pastor may devote
his entire time to teachings.
Rev. Lightbourn says this plan is
being adopted slowly by all the chur-
ches of the city, and will undoubtedly
bring many people back into the
church.
Rev. Lightbourn admits that busi-
ness men are dropping out of churches
and especially are the younger genera
tons becoming so engrossed in acuir-
ing money that they grow Indifferent
toward their spiritual needs.
