n IEw YORK, Dec. 1.-THE
nj Giants, says President Horace
" Stoneham with finality. have
4 made their last and best offer
for Van Lngle Mungo, the Brooklyn
pitcher, and they are worried to death
Stoneham, who Is young as presi-
dents go and full Of enthusiasm, didn't
say he was worried. He only said he
had made the Brooklyns his Sunday
offer, and that they could take it or
leave 1t alone. But he's worried, Just
the same.
II thought Brooklyn was crazy when
it didn't accept our offer for Mungo,"
said Stoneham. But when learned
what Chicago had offered them, 1
thought they were twice as crazy for
not accepting and getting it down in
writing, quick"
Two Make Big Offers.
MUNGO, one of the very best right
handed pitchers in the trade,
has proved himself under difficulties,
which Is to say while wearing the
Brooklyn livery. But Van Lingle has
sworn not to pitch another lick for
Brooklyn. He won't either.
Every other club in the National
League would give its right arm for

hunters have, however, is that their
prey is plentiful and easy to locate,
although the actual shooting may be
another matter and calling for some
skill. And another thing, there are
no bag or season limits, an unheard
OF thing among followers of field
sports.
Necessary for crow hunt are
several decoys. a crow call, and
a fairly good blind.
The blind is placed near a crow
roost or fyway and must completely
shield the hunter from the keen
sighted black pirates. A half-dozen
or 50 simple decoys are placed nearby
and in the trees, and a horned owl
decoy, natural punching bag for
crows, also helps things along. Last
and one of the most important items
is the call, capable of giving the
several types of calls peculiar to the
sable birds.
Let EN- Have It.
HIDDEN in your blind you rive the

spots owl or crow decoys and rallys
round to give battle. You pour a load
OF buckshot at him and no one ia
hurt but the crow. This gees on n
long as your shells last, and it is no
trick at all for pair Of guns to
bring down half q hundred in one day.
1t isn't as easy rs 1t reads,
however. It takes great pains
and good shooting to get results.
Many crow hocks have leader or
spy, flying yards in advance of the
main flight, and let it but suspect
your presence down there on the
ground and the shooting is over for
the time being.
Best time for crow shooting is early
morning, and next best is Just before
sunset. Best season of the year is
spring, but they vii fall for your
decoys and calls almost as well in the
winter, and thus they furnish some
excellent off-season shooting that
otherwise would not be had except
possibly on the skeet or trap field.
Out in the Middle West where crow
shooting gained many converts this
summer the hunters are eating their
birds and claim that they make excel
lent pie, but that is only rumor, and
this department cannot speak on that
subject from hrst-hand knowledge.
