i Watnut Hitt, Sept. 14.—The regular weekly competi- 
ion of the Massachusetts Rifle Association was held at 
“ts range to-day in a light fishtail 6 o’clock wind, which 
“iccasionally made the riflemen sit up and take notice by 
ts quick changes.

solved, as he had for his second score at 1000yds. a 4h.

THE talk around the club table shifted to fish 
and fishing, with the usual astonishing conse- 
quences. “Well, gentlemen,” said the man who 
‘was fortunate enough to tell the last story, “the 
best day’s sport I ever had was off the coast of 
southern California. There were three of us in 
the boat, each of us had three lines out, and we 
simply couldn’t pull them in fast enough. 
“What kind of fish were biting,’ asked an in- 
\dulgent listener. 
|' “I don’t know what the natives call them,” said 
dthe fisherman, “but they were big enough to be 
jichthyosauruses.”’ 
, “Maybe they were whales, Frank,’ suggested 
an ironical member. 
| “Whales!” exclaimed Frank, with a look of 
disdain; “whales indeed! Why, man, we were 
J baiting with whales !”’—New York Sun.

A WONDERFUL BIRD. 
Aout the time when the papers were full of 
\the controversy growing out of the stories of the 
f nautire fakirs,’ two negroes in Washington 
-were overheard discussing the intelligence of 
\birds in general. ‘Birds is shore sensible,” ob- 
|served one darky to the other. ‘Yo’ kin learn 
\them anything. I uster work for a lady that 
jj had one in a clock, an’ when it was time to tell 
ede time it uster come out an’ say cuckoo jest as 
‘/many times as de time was! 
‘| “Yo’ doan’ say so?” asked the other negro, 
incredulously. ‘ 
=| “Shore thing!” responded the first darky. 
“But de most wonderful part was dat it was 
Nonly a wooden bird, too!’—Bretton Woods
