BRIDGEPORT

"a ~ srsesSs..eSe.SeSA eNeess
BRIDGEPORT, Feb. %. - The 'fu-
neral OF Miss Barbara Jones, aged 81,
who died at her home here Monday
morning, after brief Illness OF
heart disease, was held from Zion
Methodist Episcopal church Tuesday
afternoon and interment was in the
church cemetery. The Rev. B. S.
Hamrick. pastor of the church, con-
Quoted the services.
Miss Jones made a profession OF
her faith in Christ sixty-1ve years
ago, uniting with the church whera
the last sad rites were said. No
member of the family circle, which
she made Joyous with her presence,
or neighbor who knew her beautiful
life ever questioned her sincerity OF
purpose or steadfast faith in the
Master, Who has called her home.
She was a member Of a wealthy and
prominent family who spent their
lives in this vicinity. A sad coin
ctdence IN connection with the death
of this dear woman is the critical
condition Of both a brother and a
sister. who the death angel may sum-
mon at any moment. The three have
spent their lives together, and SO
close have become the ties Of love
that the removal of one brings great
sorrow and makes life's pathway
seem dark for those remaining.
Surviving the decease woman ais
the following brothers and sistersj:

the most important of the shore birds
With reasonable protection the wood
cock will thrive even in a thickly set
tied country, and as it does no harm
to agriculture there is no reason why
1t should not remain indefinitely avail
able for sport. 1t has, however, been
seriously threatened by two factors
winter storms and summer shooting
The birds winter as far north as they
can find unfrozen ground. In conse-
quence a severe cold wave is likely to
reduce them to starvation and drive
them into places where they can be
slaughtered numerically. In 1892, for
instance, gale that swept the coast
of South Carolina drove them in thou
sands into the streets of one village,
where fully two thousand were killed
in one day. The shooting of mated
birds in spring and the massacre of
young ones in summer have contrib
uted to bring the woodcock to the
verge of determination.
The Eskimo curlew affords an excel
lent object lesson of the ease with
which a species once abundant can be
actually exterminated. On the prairies
west of the Mississippi vast fiocks on
their way to Labrador were formerly
common sight; in the last dozen
years scarcely a dozen individual
birds have been seen. The close-packed
ranks of the migrating birds offered
the easiest of marks and they were lit
orally moved down in spring before
they could reach their breeding
grounds. In addition, they were
slaughtered for months in their winter
home in the Argentine, and the final
touch to their destruction was given
when both the Argentine and the
western prairies were turned into vast
wheat fields.
To save our other species from the
fate of the Eskimo curlew is the OBJ
ject of the federal migratory bird law.
Since the birds are continually pass
ing from state to state, experience has
shown that the laws of individual
states are not sufficient protection and
that this can only be afforded by a
scheme comprehensive enough to in
clude the whole range of the birds
travels.
Under the federal regulations the

recent years a number
OF causes have contributed to diminish
the numbers of the migratory game
birds to such an extent that vigorous
u measures are necessary to prevent
I their total determination. The federal
government has therefore supplement-
ed the various state laws with regu-
lations which are given below.
Shorebirds in Notwithstanding
snipe, woo6cock, curlew, avocet, plo-
yer, yeliow-legs and sandpipers or
peeps suffered from persecu-
ton AS late as the seventies these
birds were found in vast numbers not
only on the sea coasts and near the
Great Lakes but even on the prairies.
Since then. however, they have been
slaughtered mercilessly. One man in
Louisiana, for example, killed in the
course of twenty years 69,087 snipe,
an average of $500 birds winter. On
one December day in 1877 he shot 366.
Inc Wilson snipe-usually referred
TO simply as snipe-offer perhaps the
best sport of any of the smaller birds.
hey are, however. decreasing so rap
IDLY that snipe shooting, like buffalo
hunting, is likely to be thing of the
past, If adequate protection is not af-
forded The chief cause for the de-
crease is undoubtedly winter shooting
in the southern part of the United
States, where the snipe spend approx
imately six months. The birds nest
principally in Canada, though a few
breed as far south as the latitude of
New York city. In September and Oc-
tober they move southwark toward
the Gulf of Mexico, Offering excellent
shooting to sportsmen in some of the
territory through which they pass. In
the northern states nature provides
in this way natural limit to the open
season, which usually does not exceed
six or seven weeks. In the wintering
grounds of the South, however, there
is no such natural protection and the
birds are continuously exposed to
slaughter.
The extent of this slaughter in the
past has already been indicated. To
put stop to this in the future and to
provide, with adequate protection for
the birds, equal opportunities for
sportsmen in all sections is one OBJ
ject of the federal regulations. Spring
shooting is absolutely prohibited be.
cause of the waste involved in killing
birds on their way to the breeding
grounds in Canada, where they are
fully protected. If allowed to reach
these grounds unmolested they will re-
turn six months later with their num-
bers increased from so to 100 per cent.
