 song, " When we went to Coney Island," was always and prob-

 who, so to speak, died with wild pigeons. The inanimate target 

 is either too slow or too fast for them. I never had the felicity of 

 standing before a trap with a wild bird in it. and can't say bow it 

 feels, but I do say a pe'son must be dreadfully partial to live bird 

 shooting if he can't get a little pleasure out of inanimate targets.
