An exciting runaway and one that
might have proved serious to more
than one person occurred on Tuesday
afternoon. Master Ashley Johnson,
Mr.. Reuben Cleaves' grandson, started
to climb onto a delivery wagon which
was standing full of groceries in front.
of Mr.. Cleaves' store. The horse, for
some unknown reason, took fright as
the boy leaned down to pick up the
reins prior to driving off to deliver
the orders in the wagon. The reins
were jerked from Ashley's hands and
the horse went down the hill below
the postoffice at a mad pace. The
wagon rocked and swayed but Ashley
hung on. Just as the horse rounded
the curve by the Fairview cottage,
Ashley beheld Mrs. Ephraim Hamilton
walking along by the side of the road.
Mrs. Hamilton, thinking nothing was
wrong even after she heard the fast
running horse, never even turned her
head until Ashley cried out look out
Aunt Fan" Then she jumped for the
bushes and landed in the ditch, I'M
hurt, but badly scared, for the horse
barely missed her. When the team ar
rived at the path in the woods below
the school house, the horse swerved
sharply around and started off across
the island. The body of the wagon
and Ashley were hurled to the ground
and all the groceries were either
more or less damaged. The horse and
wheels and frame of the wagon mean
time continued at wild pace straight
across the island, headed for Mr.. Roy

In his appeal DR.. Hornaday says
THE American people do not real
ize that scores of species of the birds
that sportsmeD and pothunters are
regularly allowed to shoot for sport
are of immense value to agriculture
How many men are there out of
every thousand that know that at
least 30 species of shore birds feed
upon noxious insects and are of great
value to the country? The gunners
that shoot legally are destroying 154
species OF valuable birds that legally
are classed as game birds even in the
North. How many Americans know
the immense value of our songblrds,
swallows, woodpeckers, blackbirds
quail, doves, and nighthawks in des-
troying countless millions of noxious
insects?
How many people of the North
know that the negroes and poor
whites of the South annually slauGh-'
ter millions of valuable insecteating
birds for food? Around Avery Is
land, La. during the robin season,
when the berries are ripe, r. A. Me
llhenny says that during 10 days or
two weeks at least 10000 robins are
slaughtered each day for the pot.
Every negro man and boy that can
raise a gun is after them.
There are seven states in which
the robin is regularly and legally be
ing killed for game. They are Lous-
lana, Mississippi, Maryland, North
Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia and
Florida In Louisiana, South Caro-
lima, Tennessee. the District of Co.
lumbia and Pennsylvania the killing
of blackbirds as game is permitted
Cranes are killed and eaten in Colo
RADIO, Nevada, Nebraska, North Da.
kota and Oklahoma. and in 20 states
the dove is killed as game. Through
out the North and most of the South
that great destroyer of noxious weeds

These bills. Or Hornaday SAYS. are

WE MUST SAVE THE BIRDS
Several Species Rapidly Becoming
Extinct.

Dr. William T. HOrnaday, director
of the New York Geological society,
has issued an appeal to all those who
are interested in the preservation of
insectivorous birds to write to their
member of Congress requesting the
passage by the next Congress of the
bill introduced by Senator Mclean of
Connecticut, which provides for the
protection of all migratory insectivor
Gus birds. In presenting his appeal Di
rector Hornaday cities some interest
ing facts showing how widspeard are
the results of the killing off Of the
birds which protect the crops.
Their destruction, he points out, is
seriously affecting the cost of living.
There are 100000 men and boys
who are slaughterlng the birds, and
in so doing are levying tribute upon
every American pocketbOok. Many
OF our best known bird species, he
warns. are being exterminated. The
result of this wanton giling he
declares, is great increase in the
armies of destructive insects and
consequent decrease in agricultural
products, which means loss to both
the consumer and farmer,
The ravages of these insects are
increasing as their bird enemies are
decreasing In Indiana and Ohio e..

ed in one year $500 by the Hessian
fly. Director Hornaday gives these
figures from the report of the United
States department of agriculture
showing the annual loss by insects
in one year:
