Il(sjps, whose I'arjii ;lJeins out Isireugh,
pcrlenncd a cliinhlug feat en .Satin day
evening that lays ever any we have heard
or lately. Mr. HnopeV poultry yard lias
liecu troubled by incursions or chicken
hawks, visiting Irem their H'lido.veus In
the adjacent weeds. Having discovered
the neat or a pair en it large black oak tree,
ever fifty feet rrem the ground, ene day last
week Mr. Hoeics 11 red a heavy charge or
shot Inte It, when the hawk sailed et) un
harmed. Ills boy observed the proceeding
and returned te the house with his rather.
On Saturday evening Mr. and Mrs. IIoejkjs
drove into Oxford ami in their absence
.Sammy thought he would inspect that
hawk's nest and see after its contents.
As seen as his parents lelt home, without
telling any one, he went le the weeds and
proceeded le climb the tree, going up the
big trunk ami out the projecting limb en
Which the nest was built almost as agile as a
squirrel. Iu the uest he round live eggs,
four of which he hastily placed in the side
peckels of his coat, the tilth being broken by
the shot it is Muqiesed, ami descended te the
ground without breaking 0110 or the eggs!
When he went home and related his adven
ture his parents could scarcely believe him,
but the proerio.sitivo lay iu therggs. When
asked It the tree was hard te clhnn, Sammy
said "no, only when he get te the big
limb wlioie tliure were no branches
te held oil te; but when he saw
the eggs hi tlie nest he steed up and
ran along the limb te them and burned back
liefore he had tlme te think el falling."
Could auvfuiaii iierferm such n feet us this
lad walk ten fectetit a horizontal limb M
feet from Iho ground and climb down the
big body m"u trce witli his pockets lull et
eggs and net break ene et" tliem t We wet
net. Sammy Hoeihjs Is certainly the champ champ
Ien egg gatherer of Chester county. Hut It is
dangerous business taking them from
hawks nests, nud we want te persuade lys
from doing iu Mr. lloepes bieiiglil the eggs
te our elllce en Monday. They are larger
than guinea eggs, whlte with bluish lingo.
Tlie hawks are of Iho long-tailed species, the
worst dcspollers or the c'.ilckeii yard.
