FOREST AND STREAM. 



tFEB. 1. 1883. 



FACT AND FANCY. 



Bogardus and Carver.— There is no present nor remote 

 probability of these gentlemen meeting for a match. Each 

 now claims the world championship; and neither is disposed 

 to give the other an opportunity of proving his claim. 



A Very Old Joke.— A gentleman, who had taken the 

 right of shooting over a moor in Ayrshire at a high rent, 

 'lagged only two brace the first day". After counting the 

 price, he grutublingly i vmarked to the tenant of the moor 

 that the birds had "cost him two guineas the. brace. The 

 tenant very innocently replied: "Aweel, sir, ye may be 

 Ihankfu' ye hae gatten sae few o' them : they're far too dear."

Health Regained in the Adirondack^.— Eight years 

 ago Dr. E. L. Trudeau, of New York city, came for the first 

 time to the Adirondacks, with his health completely broken 

 down by hard labor in his profession. He arrived at Paul 

 Smith's in such a reduced condition from lung disease, 

 attended by alarming hemorrhages, that he had to be carried 

 from the carriage to his room in the St. Regis house. He 

 staid through that season and went home in a greatly im- 



proved condition, but soon the old symptoms returned, and 

 he came back and spent the winter in the Adirondacks, and 

 has remained thero with his family about all the time since, 

 having found that whenever he attempted to resume his 

 former life in the city his old enemy, the lung trouble, was 

 sure to follow. During these eight" years he has spent his 

 summers mainly at Paul Smith's and in his pleasant camp on 

 Spitfire Pond, and the winters at Saranac Lake, and during 

 this time he has been the prime mover in the work of erect 

 nig the neat Episcopal chapels at Paul Smith's, Saranac Lake 

 and Bloomingdale. Last Wednesday week he arrived at 

 Plattsburg on his way to his winter quarters at Saranac Lake, 

 hale and hearty, after a live weeks' sojourn in New York— 

 the longest time in the eight years that he has been able to 

 breathe any other than the life-giving air of the Adirondacks.

Sale of Fox-Terriers.— At the American Horse Ex- 

 change last week Mr. William Easton disposed of a draught 

 of fox-terriers from the kennel of Mr. L. Rutherford, Jr. 

 Eighteen lots were disposed of, of which only four were 

 grown dogs, the remainder being puppies, and a total of 830s 



was realized. The best prices obtained were $42 for the year 

 old bitch Careful and $30 for her sire, Bowstring. H4:i for a 

 dog pup by champion Royal, out of Plighty, and *31 for a 

 litter sister and $:i7 for the imported hitch Nancy. 



The Supreme Court has done a fine thing in the interest of 

 fish and game protect ion bv affirming the judgment of the 

 Superior Court of Martin county, in the case of S. P. Taylor, 

 who was convicted of having violated the law providing for 

 the erection of fish-ladders in streams the waters of which are 

 used for milling and other purposes by the construction of 

 dams. Taylor is the wealthy proprietor "of a paper mill on one 

 of the trout streams of that eountv, and his dams obstructed 

 the passage..!" the. tislios up-uream.' The State Bporfemeir's 

 Association appealed to him to comply with the law, but he 

 declined doing so, hence his arrest and" prosecution. Messrs 

 Crittenden Robinson andR. E. Wilson, Directors of the State 

 Association, personally conducted the suit, and secured a con- 

 viction and fine of *50. Taylor appealed to the Supreme 

 Court, and that tribunal has affirmed the judgment. His ox- 



Eenses have run up to something like $1,000. This case should 

 e a -warning to violators of the fish and game laws. — Siicrri-
