No Spring Shooting.

Charles Brewer, secretary OF the fish

the fact that all spring shooting has
been abolished by the recent legisla-
ture. Many people think that they can
still shoot geese, and this error may
result in the arrest OF the violators.

CONCERT IN A ZINC MINE.

From the St Louis Republic
An underground concert was one Of the
features of the convention of the Mis-
souri, Music Teachers Association at
Joplin the last week. A band of intrepid
musicians donned slickers. clambered
into the tub. and were whitfield down
through the Stygian shaft to the soo-foot
level. They were . bit distract when
they de-tubbed, so to speak. They doubt
less repented the rash impulse which
moved them to leave far. far behind the
smiling green landscape and the glorious
sunshine and the happy. singing birds
which make up the paradise known as
earths surface. But the Rubicon had
been crossed, or, rather. plumbed. and
here they were in the nav of a Joplin
zinc mine. and it was theirs to feign
valor they did not possess.
But after cropping along through an
endless tunnel for perhaps two or three
eternal minutes they came to a vaulted
chamber. which made them rub their
eyes in wonder. 1t was high and vast.
and ablaze with electric bulbs that
popped profusely forth from walls and
roof. They saw panels of zinc ore rum
ming a riot of color from pale topaz TO
the red of the rubys heart-an iridescent
sheen. They saw lead glittering in the
rocky sides They saw great ribs OF
flint. hard and white and taut under
the weight of the burden which once bent
the shoulders Of Atlas They saw chaste
strips of tiff woven into a marvellous
geologic frieze, and with the imagination
of musicians they wondered. perhaps, If
the ceaseless drip of the water were the
grief of this stone because the world
had not accounted it precious. They
saw stalactites pink and purple and
softly yellow as Etruscan gold. And they
saw the man who fashions those strange
ornate caverns and who. like the work
he does. is mostly unknown. and, alto
gether unsung, artisan and artist, the
Joplin zinc miner, who in the emergencies
always essays 100 per cent pure stun
Then the musicians sang. and they
sang in the most beautiful mine in the
world-a Missouri zinc mine.

CHAPTER III.

Fifteen minutes later Christopher Poe
got a street car and hurried across to the
number on Washington Square. There he
was admitted by a little old maid who
seemed quite excited that any person OF
Christopher Poe's aristocratic bearing
should call at her humble lodgings.
Poe passed through narrow dark hall
way, and up a long flight of stairs till he
came out on a landing from whch three
doors opened.

lady in a shrill tone from below.
Poe made out the second stairway in tn,

reaching the top raped at a single door

the room and suddenly the little bespec-
tacled man Pee recognized from having

Better meals for the hard WORKING

farm organization. composed of Geauga
County housewives. Mrs. j. x. Turner
and a band of the progressive housewives
Of Geauga County discovered short

in the city.
The proper way to deal with problems

auxiliary of the Geauga County Farm

The idea got abroad some way that farm

as honest and hard-working men de-
served.

who prepares the best meals for her

nearly 200 women will enter. That means
the meals must be actually served, not
simply that the menu shall be written

tian heiroglyphics You take this half Of
the room and examine 1t thoroughly for
signs of any one having spent the night
here, and I'll do the same over here with

Christopher Poe started at dim cor
ner of the room where a number of high
ly painted. grotesque wooden boxes Leaned
against the wall. and opened each one
as he came to il. blowing of a bit Of dust
here, aud scratching with his nail at al
most invisible stains.
Suddenly he stopped down and made a
more thorough examination Of a case
lying at full length on the floor. An open
crack through the middle riveted his at
tention. He carefully lifted the, lid and
took from one edge Of the cover metallic
object which gjstened as he held 1t up
to Sir Arthur Hornsby.
Hello, Find something" asked the
pcmpous Englishman, standing with his
face red from the exertron Of the search
which he had been conducting in his part
of the room.
Yes. something interesting. Can you
recognize 1t from there"
"A diminishing glass; cried Sir Az
thur.
Yes; a good one, too"
The Englishman stepped over to his
friend, and together they eXamined the
small hand glass. IT'S a French dimin-
isher." remarked Poe. That man Spoods
had a French artist working for him on
those fake Botticellis. didn't he?"
Il believe he did. But why do you con-
meet Spoods with this affair."
oh, don't: except that the man who
did the job is evidently an artist re-
marked Poe. Il wonder IL you could send

charge of the Turner ROOM
