FEEDING THE QUAIL.
~——-—-
Game Warden Smith and Three Local
Sportsmen Looking After Birds.
' Three ‘of the local sportsmen ac-
companied by (lame Warden Smith
.wers out yesterday clearing away the
‘ ,snow and putting out food for quail.
,,._It is ofthe utmost importance that
the few scattered covies of quail that
are about should receive care and feed
when the snow covers up their nature
al food. This partygknowing where
quail had frequently been seen. found
one flockof 18 strong birds trying to
glean a breakfast from‘thc weed seeds,
sticking’above the snow. Probably
this flock 'is composed of smaller
flocks got together for the winter. Re-
turning the party‘camo across the
land known as the fireserve and there
found a flock of nine Hungarian part-
ridge, increase from the birds liber-
ated in the spring. Another flock of
these birds was reported last week
from another section. and prospects
are good for a substantial increase
‘ this spring.
,_ Sportsmen all over the, country at
this time knowing‘Of any covies of
quail. should do all they could to see
that they receive food. It is - well
known that light snow. though deep
will not prevent the quail from get-
ting food. but crust and ice works
havocwith them. and under the pres-
ent fall of snow there is crust. besides
the Ice on the trees and bushes.
From the commissioners’ report it
is plain that no more quail can be
bought anywhere for restocking. hence
, the need of caring for what we have.
and it is hoped that others will follow
the example of thosa’of yesterday.

BRIDGEPORT, Feb. 1.--lf President
Roosevelt wiilconsent'to head a wild
west show, he can draw a salary of
> $10,000 a week for thirty consecutive
weeks. according to an offer that has
lust been made to him by James M.
Atlas. proprietor of the Hotel Atlas. in
this city. Mr. Atlas, who says he is
an old friend of'Mr. Roosevalt and used
to wrestle with him when he was gov-
ernor in Albany, has sent the presi-
dent the following letter:
"Hon. Theodore Roasevelt,
of the United States:
“Dear Sir:—~Will you accept an en-
gagement of thirty weeks at a salary
of 310,000 per week, $300000 in all.
commencing the first day in May,
1909, to head a wild west exhibition
entitled. “Theodore Roosevelt's Con-
gress of Rough Riders?"
“An early reply will be greatly ap-
preciated by yours truly,
“JAMES M. ATLAS."
Alias says be Is backed by a circus
syndicate, and is ready to advance the
$300,000 or any port of It, as an evi-
dence of good faith. In his own,nund
he has already mapped out the perfor-
mance. He says the program will be
bbout as follows:
Part l.-—Grand assemblage of 'l‘boo»
dore Roosevelt's Congress of Rough

on a spiritedmnstang. and bows grano-
fully in the style made popular by But-
falo Bill. - ,

Part iV.—-'l‘he inauguration. Repro-
duction from the famous scene in
Washington, when the popular idol
took oath of office for the second

Mr. Atlas, who is an old time wrest.
ler. earths reels certain that his re
marksbleoffer will be accepted.
‘ "That's no dub sum, 8300.000," he
said. “He can postpone his African
hunting trip until autumn. Think of
the money he would make-and the big
crowds that would applaud him!
"We will furnish everything for his
comfort on the road. There will be a
private car for him, or two if neces-
sary. and one for his stenogrsphcrs. If
he wants to carry on his. literary work.
“This is the biggest idea In the his-
tory of the show business, and it‘s all
my own. if it goes through we shall
put out the biggest tent in the world.

within reach new. All We need is our

they might fall on each others’ necks

storm at Hartford a few brief weeks

friends and opponents and sighed.
The careful harborers of country
post-offices looked troubled.
But over all the esr-toear groups
and glad band exponents Postmaster
William H. Marigold. of Bridgeport.
president of the association, rose
grandly to the occasion. With a voice
[carefully trained with glycerino and
lemon drops he honeyed the senators

semblage into one Worshlpful mass of

ber of members were present. Tcn
pairs of Hungarian partridgcs have
been received from the state. The
state purchased these birds from the
revenue received from hunters’ licens-
es, and distributes them among the
towns.
The hunting of wild ducks was dis-
cussed by H. S. Joncs, who contended
that as shooting them at the present
time was illegal, the open season
should be extended to February 1.
There was some discussion about Dro—
senting a hill to the legislature con-
cerning that point. and providing that
the sale of wild ducks should be pro-
hiblted.
Anothcrmaticr discussed was the
question of proscuilug a bill to have
a closed season on l'lllnizlil'lltl‘i part-
ridges for two yours, in order to pro-
tect the new flocks. It. was decided
not to present rihls bill. The mom-

have any place to shoot,
An amendment to tho present law

favored. Instead of being fined for
not being able to show a license, if
was thought that a better plan would
be to allow the offender to go if he
could prove that he had a license al-

OBSERVATION DAY.
Most Any Kind of Weather May Be
Expected for February.
Friday was "observation day" for
the month of February, according to
some of the score. With almost every
variety of weather known to man. the
“observation" for February was, to say
the least, not especially encouraging.
although it indicated little more than
ordinary February weather. Snow,
.slcct and rain was included in the pa
culisr offering of Friday afternoon and
evening.
Saturday was also csiocmod us an
observation day, and the prospects for
February, if there lav-ally truth in the
old superstition. are not very bright.
While the elect storm continued until
Saturday morning about 7 o‘clock, the
appearance of the storm again chang-
ed. and settled down to a regular old
time snow storm. which made people
think of the blizzard. '
