 drawings for the book, " In Brush, Sedge 

 and Stubble," were on exhibition, and stole 

 one of the pictures, " Sharp-tail Shooting," 

 by O. W. Huntington, which is reproduced 

 in Part 1 of the book. A clerk in the store 

 noticed that he several times handled that 

 particular picture, and, when it was missing, 

 Detectives Callahan and Jackson were 

 called in, and arrested the dealer. He ad- 

 mitted he had taken the picture, but said in 

 excuse that he admired it much, and wanted 

 it for himself ; that he could not afford to 

 buy it, and was therefore tempted to take 

 it. When Mr. Huntington was asked if he 

 would prosecute, he said, " No ; the com- 

 pliment to the work is sufficient. Let him 



«o." . . ... 



A reproduction of the picture in question 



is shown on page v. of this issue of Recrea-
