has made sleuth more unerring than

The scent OF these dogs is marvel

But this was only q simple test Here
is one which really proves what these

A. girl was murdered in Ridgewood.
N. j., about two years ago. She had
been struck on the head with a piece
OF iron pipe and dragged across the
road about two hundred feet into a
wood. Bloodhounds were put on the
track of her assailant, but without

to put ont Of his dogs, Herta Won En-

given the piece Of pipe to smell. and
Immediately took up the trail. A mile

a farm house. The farmer told them
there had been a stranger about there

no definite description Of him.

What. in a Name.

Mr.. Wilson is mistaken If he really
thinks the people rebuked him at the
recent elections only because he had
no short Christian name, which could
be abbreviated into what is called a
nickname. No such thought may
have occurred to him, but it may also
have its significance that it was only
few days after the election that he
voiced this wish for a shorter and
more affectionate manner of being
spoken Of and to. 1t was in speaking
to an audience assembled on Airing
ton Heights. and of the late Gen.

phil" Kearney. who II buried there,
that he mourned his own want OF Q
name which could be so shortened
that the country could express Its
friendly feeling for him. as it did for
General Kearney in shortening Philip
into "Phil"
Coming SO soon after the election
may give this regret pathos which
perhaps does not belong to 1t. 1t has
been well attested that Mr.. Wilson
was christened Thomas Woodrow
Wilson, and that after reaching his
majority. he renounced the Thomas.
The act was done while he contemplate
ed nothing but an educational and lit
erary career and had not thought Of
popular elections. or how he might
come to be affected by them. In alb
juring Thomas he cast off the finest
nickname in the language There is
none other which lends itself more to
the use of popular enthusiasm. tom.
Dick and Harry are all names to con-
jure with at election time or wherever
good fellowship reigns supreme. Mr..
Wilson threw away birthright in a
name which now would fill all of his
longings for shortness, sweetness and
light. Personally, we should not care
to call him "Tom." even had he re-
tanned the name. and even after his
testimony that he would like to have
it back again.
He takes issue with Shakespeare
in thinking there may be something
in name We find ourselves agree
ing with him as to that, but only quail
ifedly. The people who voted for Mr.
Roosevelt only because he was called
Teddy" never made him president
General Grant was denied all chance
OF nicknaming, but was twice elected.
And it was General Jackson the hero
Of New Orleans, and not candy" jack
son, who was elected twice. II Mr..
Wilson has yet done, or can do some
thing. to be elected twice, he will not
need nickname and will not miss the
forsaken "Tom."-St. Louis Globe

A POOR SEASON
e FOR HUNTING
ABOUT TO CLOSE.


Keokuk, Dec. 3.-The hunting season
practically closed in Iowa on ducks,
prairie chickens and quail and also the
fishing year on Nov. 80, tho the legal
time limit does not expire for quail un-
til the 18th Of December. The federal
migratory law stops the shooting Of
ducks on Dec. Is, and 1t Is probable
that the legislature this winter will re-
construct the law to comply with the
federal law.
Outside of prairie chickens It can
safely be said that this falls sport for
the Iowa nimrod has been the poorest
in the states history. Numerous
causes have worked to this end. The
weather has been the greatest trouble.
1t has been so in the case Of quail, dat
ing back to January and February Of
1912. Before the unprecedented cold
and unusual snowfall of that winter
the quail had become very numerous in
northern and other favored sections Of
Iowa. Severe winters have always been
their deadliest enemy and the one of
three years ago nearly exterminated
them thru freezing and starving \ Is
AS for ducks, the mild fail weather
kept them in the north country. The
usual cold snap in October did not
come, SO the birds drifted lazily to the
south or else came with rush and
were gone in day in the final freeze
up this month. One old timer. resi-
dent of one Of Iowa's choicest ducking
grounds for about twenty-four years
said 1t was the poorest fall in his mem
DRY.
Lack of large watering places and
the draining of the prairie sloughs
has also helped to speed the birds over
the state without stopping.
But there is one target left in Iowa
for the gunner which seems to hold
its own and that Is the cotton tail.
There Is also new method of getting
him-hunting him at night with the aid
of an automobile.
Those trying it say that it is great
sport and no easy task either to get
him as he crosses the road in front
of the cars searchlights.
The timber squirrel, which has be-
come nuisance in some localities, the
open season for which closes Jan. 1,
is also on the list, tho many dislike
the creatures.
Missouri Season Opens.
keokuk spertsmen who hunt in Mis-
souri, will be interested IN the an
nouncement that the open season for
quail shooting in that state began Tues
day. 1t has been narrowed down to
a single month, the killing Of quail be-
ing prohibited after the last day Of
December.
The law prohibits the killing, in one
calendar day, of more than ten of any
kind of game birds. or having in ones
possession more than fifteen. This ap-
plies to quail, geese, ducks and all
other kinds of game fowl.
Section 657 prohibits the killing Of
prairie chicken, grouse, pheasant. and
other such fowl. Only special act
Of the state legislature can open the
season on these birds.
Geese, ducks and brant may be killed,
according to the state law, between
Sept. Is and April 20 of the next year.
Under the federal law the season closes
Jan. 81. There is no law against a
blind, except one on the ice.
Birds which are protected by law
must not be kept by any one in their
possession more than five days after
the season ends.
