Much inquiry is made in regard to the
open season for jacksnipe. The new
law takes away all restriction from the
killing of jackenipe, which now can be
killed at all times of the year. This
change in tbe law appears to meet with

who declare that these birds are at their
best late in in the spring when, under
the old law, they were protected. Jack

do not remain very long in a place.

A good story was told to us the other
day of Conductor Cressy, running on the
Independence A Monmouth railroad,
who, by tbe way, is a tip-top good fellow
and a Joker himself. A traveling man,
and eye witness, gave us tbe facts. As
the train pulled out of Dallas one after
noon recently, there was on board a big
fat colored mammy with a pickaninny
kid about a year old that was about as
obstreperous and contrary as any brat
could be. Tbe mother coaxed and
coaxed and threatened It without suc
cess. Finally she opened the front of
her dress and exposed her bosom, and
produced a "dinner" of generous propor
tions, but tbe little brat still continued
to squall and lefuaed to be tempted into
quietude; then she resorted to strategy,
"You bettab tak hoi' o' dat dinnah
chile, or I'll gib it to the conductah."
Tbe traveling men In the car let out a
shout, while Conductor Cressy said he
Just had dinner, "dam a rabbit," and in
extra stern voice demanded tickets.
