RECREATION. KI 

At the fall opening of McCreery’s mil- 
linery department, in his beautiful 23d 
street shop, the window display showed 
15 hats exquisitely trimmed without any 
bird plumage whatever except ostrich 
feathers, and those were used on only 2 or 
3 of the models. Only 7 hats in the entire 
display bore wings, breasts or whole 
birds and among these but one aigrette 
was visible. This was a strong argu- 
ment against the slaughter of birds, by 
a house noted all over the country for 
refinement of tauste and exclusive styles. 
On the same day in a window of Ehrich 
Brothers’ 6th avenue shop—another lead- 
ing millinery house—g hats out of II 
shown were guiltless of objectionable 
plumage—a still better percentage. 
These signs are encouraging. They 
seem to indicate that the buyers and the 
sellers of hats are alike awakening to a 
sentiment against the horrible traffic in 
bird plumage. : 

The Tribune, of Bay City, Mich., states 
that Deputy Warden E. Atkinson, of that 
place, recently arrested Roy O’Neil for 
violating the fish laws, and seized about 
1,500 pounds of undersized perch which 
O'Neil had taken in his nets. The offender 
was arraigned before Justice Callender and 
fined $20 and costs, which he paid. He got 
off easy. He should have been assessed at 
least $100.
