restored by turns, and bv turns made suitable or useless fo 

 animal or 'plant life. Vast areas have been alternately pop- 

 ulous and vacant, primitive races have become extinct, and 

 new ones have succeeded; some have survived, some have 

 been transplanted, some have been modified out of all resem- 

 blance to their former self. Man has been constantly on the 

 move since he was driven from Eden, migrating from ocean 

 to ocean and continent to continent; and the. dog being con- 

 temporary with man, and always associated with him, it 

 follows that whenever traces of him are fonnd in unin- 

 habited and waste places, there man must have occupied at 

 some time or another. In this world nothing is constant. 

 Mutations alone are persistent. In all differentiation man 

 under God is the potential agent. Cultivation is the author 

 of outcomes and results, and all gardens left to themselves 

 inevitably run to weeds. CHARLES IIALLOCK.

THAT MITCHELL LETTER. 



Editor Forest and SLrcam: 



In your last issue Mr. Autliony advises your readers that he 

 purchased a stolen letter, and I, with a eood many others, rest 

 quite content to believe his self- volunteered confession, even if 

 we remember that dictionaries contain such as the following: 

 "Fence, a receiver of stolen goods." "A fence, the person who 

 buys stolen property." It matters little in this connection 

 whether the property was stolen or not; Mr. Anthony says it was, 

 and believing that it was be says he bought it. 



When he first referred to this alleged stolen letter in a. com- 

 munication to the Indiana Field Trials Club he wrote: "A stolen 

 letter taken from my possession by fraud and put into the pos- 

 session of the I Eastern Field Trials] clnb by James Watson." The 

 plain reading of this sentence is that I was a party to stealing a 

 letter from htm, and I had every right to feel indignant at such a 

 charge, But Mr. Anthony now explains that he thought he had 

 purchased a letter stolen from me. 



Goinga little further along in Mr. Anthony's confession he says 

 that the person to whom the letter had been intrusted called on 

 him a second time for it, and he then gave it to him with the un- 

 derstanding that on hU word, of honor he would destroy it if I 

 again asked for its return. Here's richness; fancy a man who 

 Mr. Anthony says sold him a stolen letter having any honor to 

 give as a pledge. "Honor among thieves," is an expression we 

 sometimes hear by way of quotation. What could Mr. Autliony 

 expect other than that the man he says sold him a stolen letter 

 sent it back to the person he got it from. A man who would sell 

 a stolen letter would not stop at such a little thing as selling out 

 the man who bought it, and such men as Mr. Anthony who buy 

 stolen letters know that and don't give them hack on words of 

 honor. 



So far I have been assuming the correctness of Mr. Anthony's 

 statement that he entered into the employment of buying a 

 stolen letter— a letter he says was stolen. The person to whom 

 I sent the letter when he was asked for its return said, to the best 

 of my recollection, that he had been too busy to do anything 

 about it and had mislaid it among his papers. I might or might, 

 not have written agaiu for it, possibly I sent a reminder that it 

 had not yet turned up. When it did it was at. once returned to 

 the Sporting Life editor. That gentleman was beyond doubt 

 made aware at the time as to where the letter had been sent and 

 everything about it, but be has something else to memorize be- 

 sides recollections of such men as Mitchell. Neither of us knew 

 that the letter had ever gone out of the possession of my trusted 

 friend. I kuowingly neither deal with persons who sell letters 

 nor persons who buy them, hence I decline to believe that the 

 letter was ever sold by my friend as alleged, and I further decline 

 to recognize by any further correspondence the man who publicly 

 confesses he bought a letter he says was stolen. Ail I ask of any 

 one is to apply common seuse reasoning to Mr. Anthony's whole 

 confession and he will arrive at the conclusion that for a man so 

 clever as to get everything signed, sealed and witnessed with the 

 aoditiou of stenographers in hiding, he has told a story that is too 

 full of inconsistencies to bear the impress of truth in such parts 

 as it is impossible now to obtain any denial of— the proceedings 

 between himself and the person intrusted with the letter. 



I leave him in the congenial company of Mitchell and "Wild- 

 fowler." James Watson.
