Blight end fl’lsoue - Dying
Birds Alone Can Save Crops
and Lives .
NEW YORK, Aug. 8.~Whlls the
fight for the presidency is spreading
over the country,‘another national
campaign for the rights of the Ninth-
cred population of the continent is to
be pressed with redoubied force from
this city today. Acting for the inland
birds whose further extinction may
lay barren all the land, and for the
water fowl. whose death will bring
on national pestilence, the National
Association of Audubon Societies has
mapped out every section of the Unit-
ed States and organized a force of
speakers to bring home their issues to
all the people. Though the‘political
battle will'eud next November, this
campaign for the birds will be cease-
lessly carried to every American citi-
zen until eventually the federal and
state governments shall establish bu-
reaus to adequately meet the national
need for economic bird preservation.
Seven able ornithologists have been
today assigned to cover as many divls«
ions of the whole country and estab-
lish local headquarters ill this unique
campaign for the national feathered
life. At a constant cost of 810,000 a
year, these trained workers will be
kept on tour until every community
to hear the story of the dying’birds
and the loss to lives and crops which
their decrease threatens. Funds to
increase. this campaigning force will
be sought from every man, womhn and
child in the country who cares for the
birds or has a dollar at stake in the.
agricultural and commercial interests,
which they slope can guardrfrom des-
truction. While only about a thousand
members today help the National As
sociation of Audubon Societies to
maintain scores of reservations, an
army of wardens, a small fleet of pa-
trol boats and a staff of educational
workers, it is believed that, when the
present emergency is brought home
to the nation, many thousands will
enlist in the movement.
“Save the birds who save our lives
and crops,” is to be the watchword of
the new national campaign which is
being launched at Audubon headquar-
ters here today. The prediction of
Henry W. Henshaw, a government ex-
port, that “Were the birds exterminat»
ed it is dirtiest certain that not only
would successful agriculture become
impossible but the destruction of the
greater part of vegetation would fol~
low," is to be Its keynote. The es»
tablished fact that destructive insect
life is today alarmingly on the in-
crease and the birds. its natural check.
steadily becoming exterminated will
be set forth before every farmer, or«
chardist, railroad and: business man,
together with the known loss 'of $800,-
000,000. due to this condition last year.
Medical authorities will be cited and
the profession aroused to the pessi-
bilities of plague in the decline of the
water fowl, nature‘s scavengers.
“We intend to place before all the
people the greatest non-partisan issue
confronting the nation at this thorn".
said William Butcher, president of the
National Association of Audubon So
cieties at. its headquarters. Iii llrond
way, today. “We are squarely faced by
Ian impending national calamity and
yet the government only appropriates
some. 362,000 a year to investigate and
ed sites on this paramount economic
pro Iem. As much is put into one
single gun, which is soon worn out.
Until the federal and state govern-
ments are forced by the people to es-
tablish adequate departments or bu-
reaus for the expert handling of this
important subject. our association will
keep up this fight throughout the ria-
tion. I believe this work will eventuai~
ly be adopted as one of the. govern-
ment‘s most essential activities; but,
until it is, we shall call on all patriotic
Americans to help us fill the breach
and struggle with’the grave problem
which. aside from sentiment. is of in.
tense economic importance."

Were Acting As Agents In
Disposing oi the “Queer" for
the Real Culprits '
W'—
In an old country residence near
Branchvllle, yesterday. a forte of six
United States Secret Service men
rounded up the biggest and most dar-
ing band of counterfeiters that has 01)-
erated in ~the East in years. Nine well‘
dressed well-educated italians, every
one of whom has been posing in the
adjacent-countryside as an. exiled noble-
man, were captured. Thousands of dol-
lars in sprlous coin were found, along
with dies and moulds, and even a
stamp.
The coincrs were taken completely
by surprise. There was a savage show
of resistance when the officers rushed
the place with drawn revolvers, but
they soon' prevailed. The doors were
found locked, and one of these was
broken in with a crowbar.
In the fight that followed the Secret
Service men tired no shots. One of the
counterfeitcrs, however, was severely
injured by one of the ofllcera felling
him with the butt end of a heavy Cult
revolver which knocked him some
less. '
Prisoners Lashed to True.
The handcuffs were put on the nine.
each being coupled to another, and all
were taken outside and lashed to trees
with hitching lines and bits of harness.
One detective was left to guard them.
The house was then searched, the
plant found and destroyed.
The den was an ideal one for a lot of
desperate men. Iiranchville is a junc«
tion point on the Ilanbury division of
the New York, New Haven and Hart-
ford road. It is twelve miles from
South Norwalk and about the same dis.
tancc from Danbury. A jerkwater train
carries passengers from the junction
to Ridgefleld four miles up the hills.

it was in this quiet. almost deserted
section of the country that the men
had rented an old but rather protein
ilous farm house. A part of the band
of counterfeiters pretended to “farm

culating the coin that was manufac—
tured. For nearly a your they have
been at work. For a time they clr‘
culated the coin they made only In

It was good coin. There was nearly
as much silver in the quarters and

the government. The moulds and dies
were excellent. The stamp was hard

Nine months ago the money was in

traced to Connecticut, and went like

point. The small towns were flooded
with it.

ers.

that it had nevsr'seeh so many «stran-

to buy real estate h e frequented the
vicinity for months. Branchvllle had
never seen a real secret service men.
and so it was no wonder that Branch-
vllle was not suspicious.
Riding and tramping through the
country, the detectives finally follow-
ed ‘men they suspected until they lo-
cated Ito house. ,There were a dozen
times, in e pastweeks, when the
place could have been raided, but the
ofiicers waited. They waited for rain.
They wanted a rain that would keep
the band indoors. They knew the band
was a large one, and wanted to catch
the’whole lot. together.
Thursday's and yesterday‘s rains
provided the moment the government
officials had been waiting for.
The station agent» at Brancbvllle

had seen before. who appeared to be
waiting for train connections. Their
faces were familiar, but their clothes
were different. They were six busi-

Keeper James Gordon states that
Janos Barony, who was here so long
about. a year or so ago. was easy in
comparison to this man.
It is thought that he will have to
be placed in a straight Jacket, as he is
liable to do himself personal injury.
it is almost impossible to keep any
clothing on him, and he delights in
tearing them up as fast as he gets
them. He frequently dresses himself
up and dances, apparently playing In-

violent, and a close. watch has to be
kem on him.
The officials of Wilton are taking
steps to have him taken off as soon as
possible.

Eben iiiIIDeeldes-Io Call ills
handsome Summer Itesl-
dence Property at the Shore
Pilot's Island
Eben Hill has decided to re-name
Tavern Island, his handsome summer
residence property, Pilot’s Island, and
there is every probability that the
next issue of government maps will
so designate it.
Mr. Hill has taken the matter up
with Washington, and there is little
doubt but that the request will be
granted. The new name was consid-
ered very appropriate by Mr. Hill, in
view of the island's history, because,
for many years, it was the home of
Captain Joseph Merrill, who piloted
incoming vessels to their destination
at various points in the upper harbor.
Just how the island secured the name
of Tavern Island Is not known, and
Mr. Hill has been unable to ascertain,
but it has had this appellation] for a
long time.
During the past few years, Mr. Hill
has spent. many thousands of dollars
in improving It, until today he has one
of the finest shore properties along
the Connecticut shore, and a summer
residence that is a model one in.every
every respect, and fitted with all of
the conveniences of a city home, in~
eluding electric lights, city water,
etc.
Mr. Hill has also recently completed
nfino wharf at Hickory Bluff, which he
has given the ham of Hickory Dickery
Dock. This dock is also a modern one
in all of its features, and required a
long time to construct. The water-
way between the shore and Pilot's Is—
land is very considerably sheltered by
the protecting wings of the loud
Smith's Island, designated on the gov.
ernment map as Sheffield Island, and.
consequently. Mr. Hill can get to his
attractivo. summer place in a small
boat at almost any time he desires.
It is believed that the name. Pilot‘s
island, will onset with favorable com~
ment with practically everybody inter-
ested in the harbor and shore mat-
ters. It will certainly conjure up, In
the minds of the old salts, memories
of the bygone days~tho days of even
the old sailing packet. In Captain
Joe Merrill's time. the harbor was not
dredged ‘out as well as it. is today, and
it required no mean skill to sail a
craft successfully through the Intrica-
cies of the. old harbor. A pilot surely
presided over the destinies of a vessel
in those days. at least. after she had
entered the lower harbor.
