A VALUABLE TABLE FOR SPORTSMEN
The 31st of this month is the last day of
grace for squirrels in this Commonwealth
bntil the 31st of December, when the close
Season again begins. On the former day,
thanks to the Pennsylvania State Senate,
which had too many jobs on hand to find
time to right the wrongs of suffering ani
mals and birds, not only squirrels, if the
the weather be fine, will be slain by tens-of A
thousands.
The average hunter, though, will knock
down every grouse and quail that
he can smuggle into his pouch without
detection, for to their shame be it
Eaid, there are comparatively few
Wooded sportsmen. Even the English
nobleman is a rather ordinary sort
of an animal in this respect, and calls the
shooting of the golden pheasant sport,
though there is about as much skill re
quired as would be necessary to shoot
Shanghai chickens with someone along to
wake them fly up ten feet from the ground.
The savage instinct takes possession of
most men w hen in the woods with gun in
hand, and atavism is pretty sure to crop
out
A LAW THAT WAS PASS.KD.
The proposed law gotten up by local
Fportsmeu was strongly urged on the legis
lature la-t winter, and, somewhat
xemavulated, it passed the House, but was
not reached in the Senate. It was proposed
to make the shooting of all kinds of game
later in the season, and all to come in on
the same day, but there were those who in
sisted on making the squirrel season open
September 1, a;1 under the present law, and
the squirrel hadn't friends enough to save
him. though the House favorablyconsidered
the rest of the bill, and even raised the
penalty for being found hunting rabbits,
or lares, with ferrets to ?50, half to go to
the intonner.
A II. Clarke's proposition to make hunt
ers for the market take out a license was
iiot considered, though it should have
been. Now the butchers start after the
woodcock July 4 and some of them kill
everything thev tan. "Were the season, as
proposed, to open tor all kinds of game on
October 1 the preserves would soon 6how a
better stock and there is but little pleasure
in hunting before that season.
Hut speaking of squirrels, it seems
Et ranee that lawmakers should interdict the
taking ot fish with a seine, and at the same
time allow squirrels to be shot with a shot
gun. Some years ago some legislators
wanted them excluded from all grace, re
garding them as vermin, but they evidently
w ere not true sportsmen, for there is no
more gamy animal in the forest than the
Kq irreL Prior to October, however, the
baby squirrels have not learned enough to
make them good sport.
fQUIRREX SHOOTING ONCE HAKE SPOET.
In the days when Americans prided them
selves on their skill with the rifle, squirrel
shooting was rare sport audit still is in
Some mountain ridges of this State
(ind "West Virginia, but to have suc
cess, one must use the old-fash
ioned muzzle-loading rifle, using a
patch on the ball to make it take the grooves
with precision. These rifles have very long
barrels, delicate sights, and hair triggers.
The great length of the barrel enables one
o take very exact aim, and for short dis
auce shooting they are superior "to any
breech-loader ever "made. The ball run's
about 1G0 to the pound, and the range at
which they are available is not over 200
yards.
If you want a real day's sport, go into
these" mountain wilds and stop at a farm
house. You must get up on a sharp, frosty
morning, before dayliglit, get your break
fast, and be ready "to start at the time the
tun heralds his approach by the rosy cheek
he gives the dawn. You want to make
friends with the dogs, and almost any mon
grel you find, from the size of a black and
tan terrier to one of lull regulation pattern,
will iswer. His looks indicate nothing of his
quai. y and any color, even pumpkin and
milk, is acceptable. A small or medium
sized cur is preferable to a larger animal as
he makes less noise than a large dog and,
getting closer to squirrels before being dis
covered, forces them to the nearest tree,
preventing them from getting to the ones in
which they have their lair where they
would hole if they could reach them, and
you must be an expert in woodcraft if you
get them to come out within a. reasonable
lime.
GREAT CLIMBING- OF THE SQUIRREL.
The squirrel often climbs to the highest
point in a high tree, and the higher he gets
the better it suits an ardent sportsman, for
preat skill is required to dislodge him.
Very often the squirrel is 90 feet from the
ground on a hillside, and the hunter is
forced to get a point further down
the hill to get a sight and must
shoot some 200 feet almost perpendicularly,
and all he sees to shoot at is the tips of the
snimal's ears as he crouches behind a limb
or a tuft of moss. It is not regarded as a
shot unless you hit in the head, and thus at
200 feet you have about an inch to go on,
and this requires finer work than is found
in shooting galleries. After you have got
ten half a dozen squirrels "piney's" don't
count you are ready to go home and rest
until 3 o'clock in the afternoon, when the
frisky little fellows will begin to look for
dinner and you can get a few more shots.
"With a dog at the season named, however,
you can find squirrels any time during the
day, if it is the right kind of a day. If you
know anything of dogology, and treat your
four-footed partner decently, he will never
require any coaxing to get h'im along after
the first hour's work, as he takes as
keen delight in it as the most ardent
sportsman, and a veteran squirrel-hunting
dog will express his disgust as plainly as
words could if you miss very often. " In
fact, a well-trained dog will "give a green
hunter points, and the best dogs are self
taught.
THE SOLE REWAKD TOR THE DOG.
"When the squirrel falls you must let the
dog cive it a shake, for form's sake. This
is all the reward and recognition he asks,
and he scoots as soon as it is over, and you
must handle yourself in lively shape if
you expect to get your rifle "loaded and
cupped ere vou hear the dog again velp,
announcing the treeing of another squirrel.
It may be within 100 yards and it may be
half a mile distant.
October is also the month when nature is
at its best, just before the arrival of the
mclancholv days, "the saddest of the vear."

Quail are plenty this year. In driving
through the country you hnd them at short
intervals along gram fields and timber belts
dusting themselves on the road, and the
clear note of "Bob White" is heard on all
eides. Grouse are scarce and were it not
that they are hard to shoot they would have
been exterminated long ago. Squirrels are
scarce. They were traveling last year and
were unusuallv plenty in this State, but

THE OPEK SEASONS FOB GAME.
The open season for the killing of each
kind of game is as follows:
Turkev from October 5 to Jannary 1.
Ducks' and gocse from September 1 to
MavlS.
Plover from July 13 to January 1.
Woodcock from July I to January 1.
Quail from November 1 to December 15.
Pheasants from October 1 to January 1.
Deer and elk from October 1 to December
15.
Squirrels from September 1 to January 1.
Rabbits from November 1 to January 1.
Penalty 5 to S50 fine for each bird,
animal or fish illegally shot, caught or
killed.
It will be observed that there are less
than 50 days in the 3G5, exclusive of Sun
days, on which a slaughterer is prevented
from going after some kind of game, and
many who profess to be after deer and elk or
ducks and geese will kill anything they can
safely smuggle. "When in addition to this
it is considered that farmers are allowed to
kill game caught destroying crops and that
a farmer's boy can buy a breech-loader that
will do effective work for S3 80, it is strange
that game of all kinds is not extinct The
game law is very nearly a dead letter and
many people who would like to see it en
forced are eithertooamiableor too cowardly
to enforce it If the close season lasted
from Hay 15 to October 15 and no game
were allow ed to be sold in market between
January 1 and October 1, except ducks and
geese, and they prohibited between May 15
and October 1, there would be a hope that
the preserves would in time become well
stocked, for few would go hunting for pleas
ure, either field or gastronomic, after Janu
ary 1.
THE MESSAGE FROM GOD
Dwrlt Upon by Dr. Laws at a Campmeetlnc
nt Homewood Driving Park An Old
Fashloned Bush Meeting With All That
Signifies.
The third of the scries of campmeetings
held by the congregation of the Sylvan
Baptist Church (colored), of Homewood,
was largely attended yesterday. The meet
ings are held in the grove near the driving
park. The pastor, Rev. P. C Gibson, re
ports that the meetings are being attended
with much success. The services yesterday
were conducted by Eev. E. S. Laws, D. D.,
of the Green Street Baptist Church, Alle
gheny, aad ex-President of the Colored
National University of "Washington, D. C.
There was not a great number of people
in the grove, and unlike most meetings of
the kind, the whites did not predominate.
The scene, as viewed from a distance, was
an impressive one in its primitive simplic
itv, and as one came nearer and noted the
attention and devout air with which the
200 people gathered there listened to the
words of the preacher as he stood on the
rude stage, surrounded by the choir and
with the green hillside for a background,
it would be realized that here was a genuine
negro campmeeting of the good old kind.
Dr. Laws chose for his text, "The Mes
sage From God," explaining that he was
there to deliver that message, for it was a
message that must be delivered and must be
received. The gentleman's delivery at first
wias very slow and deliberate, but he
warmed up and soon had his audience
aroused to a high pitch of ex
citement He said that ministers of
the gospel often shirked their duty
in delivering this message, for fear ot hurt
ing the feelings of their congregation, but
"It was better to save our sinner at the ex
pense of trodden toes than that all should
go blundering to destruction." He con
tinued, "This messenger of God, of whom
we read in the lesson, went out with a
dagger in his hip pocket, and finding the
king alone he soused his dagger into his
heart's blood, and vengeance was done.
This was not murder; it was carrying out
the law; and all Israel gathered and re
joiced, xnis is wnat the Uhurcli ot tiod
must do to-day. It must tell the men of
earththat the son of God has conquered
the kings; that Jesus Christ has caught
death at the gates ot hades and plucked out
his" stinger; that kings and princes, popes
and potentates, must bend the knee."
"Here are men and women who once said
that the gates of perdition could not blow
them away. Now these people are wafted
away bv the surging winds of the follies
and fashions of men. How different is the
man who has not exchanged faith for fash
ion, he, rising higher and higherj higher
and higher on the eternal edict of his eleva
tion, gazes down with one long arm and
longs to take the suffering earth in his em
brace!" AKOTHEB CHUBCH BEGUN.
Tearing of the Cornerstone of the New St,
Stanislaus Edifice Testerday.
The corner-stone of St Stanislaus new
Polish church, Twenty-first and Smallman
streets, was laid yesterday afternoon. The
ceremony was interesting, and about 4,000
people were present to witness it Bishop
Pnclan and Rev. Fathers Murphy, Heley,
"Woerfel, "Witzman and Jaworski conducted
the services. A choir from the St Stanis
laus' school had charge of the music part of
the service. Proceeding the corner-stone
laying there was a parade of the Poles be
belonging to the church. Johb Blaszak was
chief marshal; Joseph Rosinskv, adjutant,
and Benedict Loginski chief of staff The
societies of the church, consisting of St
Michael's, St Caspar, St Joseph, St
Hedwig Rifles, and the entire male
part of the congregation, participated in
the parade. There were also two bands,the
Moontooth and St Albert The route of
the parade was over the principal down
town streets and out Penn avenue to
Twenty-first and Smallman, where the
service was held.
After the ceremonv Bishon Phelan con
firmed about 200 children at the school.
The new church will be made from pressed
brick, with stone trimmings, the architect
ure to be of Gothic character. The edifice
will be 200 feet in length and 80 feet wide.
The cost is estimated at 518,000.

Lesson
0TBER PULPIT TOPICS OF THE DAT
Rev. Mr. Keister, pastor of the United
Brethren Church, at Wilkinsburg, preached
yesterday from the following text:
IX. Chronicles, vi., 18, "Will God in very
deed dwell with men on the earth?" He
said: "At the dedication of Solomon's tem
ple thiB question was as pertinent as it was
serious. "Will God occupy the completed
temple? "Will he indeed dwell with men on
the earth? We here find two thoughts for
our consideration: First, Man expectant be
fore God, and, second, God. responsive to
man.
"Solomon'B question is our own. We
seem to be familiar with it Our hearts
respond to it We have often felt its force
and have strong assurance that the man who
comes to God as best he can is not cast off.
This idea seems to he in us. It rises from
the very depths of our nature. Would
that we each and all obeyed it, and so come
to Christ and learned to know that in very
deed God does respond to the deepest long
ings of the expectant sonh
"At the beginning of the Chrisian era
men were expecting some new revelation
from God. They felt the need of it But
God must answer tor himself. He did re
spond in the person of Jesus of Nazareth.
And what a response that was! How much
better than man's expectation! Men were
looking for the Messiah whom they imagined
would bea prophet andtcacher.and above all
a temporal king who would deliver the He
brew from the Roman yoke and establish a
universal temporal kingdom. A prophet
and teacher and king He was.but His King
dom was not of this world. It was spiritual
and claimed both Hebrew and Gentile for
its happy subjects.
"We ask to be relieved from the dire con
sequences of our siu. God says I will give
you relief also from the love of sin. We
ask for heaven at last God says I will give
you the essence of heven now. We ask
God for his favor and presence. God says
I will dwell in you and walk in you and
supply all your need according to the riches
ot grace in Christ Jesus, no uoa s response
always transcends man's expectations. It
always will. As our hearts enlarge to re
ceive we find an abundant answer to our
larger prayer.
"It is not by the keenest scrutiny of his
works and ways that we discover God. He
hides Himself from the critical and captious,
but reveals Himself to the pure in heart
Would that we could learn this lesson once
for all, simply to believe and obey. Then
we could see and know without trying.
Then the wonder would be that we had
never learned this simple truth before; that
God reveals Himself bo frequently to His
children; that He dwells so near us though
He often seems so far away; that He is so
much more wise and good than we had ever
before conceived Him to be."
A LESSON ON CONTENTMENT.
An Alio Sermon on That Subject Delivered
by Dr. Locke.
Notwithstanding the intense heat the
auditorium of the Smithfield Street Meth
odist Episcopal Church was filled last even
ing to listen to the pastor, Rev. Charles Ed
ward Locke, deliver his closing sermon of
the series on the subject of "Contentment."
He said:
"Jjet us fill our goblets to the brim and
drink refreshingly of the mystic fountain of
contentment, whose waters insure eternal
youth and beauty. Christ's mission on
earth was not only to tell us what to be
lieve, but how to live. He came not only
that we might have life, but that we might
have it more abundantly.
"Contentment fosters health. A large
amount of illness results from head and
heart worry. The added avoirdupois of the
summer outing comes not as much from
change of climate as from a lifting of the
head burdens. The jolliest physician, all
other things being equal, has 'the most
cures.
"Contentment fosters temporal prosper
ity. It discourages grasping and greed and
illegitimate ambition. Cicero declared that
the ruin of the Roman Republic could be
traced to the destructive vice of avarice.
Contentment teaches men to labor and to
wait. Discontent and inactivity are closely
associated. Contentment and patience are
twin virtues.
"Contentment fosters piety. It en
courages trustfulness and thankfulness,
and these are beautiful Christian graces.
Contentment fosters genuine happiness. It
gives the discerning eye so that the beauties
of earth, the masterpieces of nature, art,
humanity and thought, can be discerned
and appreciated.
"Contentment is the way to heaven. The
cure of discontent is, 'Seek ye first the
kingdom of God and His righteousness and
all these things shall be added unto you.'
The contented, devout heart will learn to
handle the Bible as a weapon of defense and
conquest, and by it solve all the perplexing
problems of life."
BT0EY OF A DESTRUCTION.
A Covenanter Minister Draws
a Lesson
From the Fall of Fompeii.
Yesterday afternoon 59 people listened to
ha sermon by Rev. D. B. Wilson, D. D., suc
cessor to Rev. J. R. J. Milligan, at the Al
legheny R. P. Church. His subject was
taken from Paul's letter to the Corinthians
about sin. The minister said: "We are all
acquainted with sin, both in our lives and
in the lives of others. Salvation from sin
is desired, and how to obtain salvation is
the great question. So far the wisdom of
man has utterly failed to reach a saving
knowledge of God. Man's mind has
wrought wonders, but on this point it
has ever failed. All the light
man has ever gotten has been through God's
revelation. One must know God to be at
peace. Corinth had all the glory of man's
wisdom, yet was dark. We know this from
the ruins of Pompeii, which was a similar
city. It enjoyed all the wisdom of the
world, yet its moral life was the darkest and
most vicious. This is attested by the fact
that so great is the wickedness ot that age
preserved in the ruins that we can only visit
tHem unaccompanied by ladies.
"Vet God has been pleased to save men.
I nse the word in the sense of cleansing
degraded sinners from all sin. They are
saved only through God's grace."
8PBEADING THE GOSPEL.
Twenty-six Members Received Into
the
Buena TIsta 31. E. Church.
Yesterday morning's service at the Buena
Vista Street M. E. Church was given up to
the baptism of adults and the reception of
probationers. There were 26 persons re
ceived into the church. One adult was bap
tised. There were 21 probationers who were
received into full fellowship and six others
were admitted on probation.
The service was made up largely of songs
by the choir and congregation. After the
ceremony Eev. J. H. ililler, the pastor,
gave a special talk to those admitted on
their duties as members of the church.
Good Sluslc at tho Jail.
Services at the jail yesterday were con
ducted by Eev. Jackson Taylor, a colored
minister from Allegheny, with the fall
choir from his church. The singing of the
choir was unusually good, and seemed to be
highly enjoyed by the prisoners.
HOW TO PLEASE GOD.
Kev. James S. Martin Explains the Question
to Dr. McAllister's Congregation.
In the absence of Dr. McAllister the
pulpit of the Eighth Street R. P. Church
was ably filled yesterday morning and after
noon by Rev. James S. Martin, who took
for his afternoon subject: "How to Please
God." The text of Rev. Mr. Martin's
sermon was taken from Hebrews xi:16. The
principal thought of the sermon was'that if
man desired happiness in this and the next
world he must please God. This is to be
accomplished by faith. Men may live up
rightly and strive to do right, but without
faith it is impossible to please God. This is
necessary from the nature and from the
fruits of faith.
Mr. Martin then drew a fine distinction
between faith and belief, asserting that
manr Christians are unable to define the
faith ot their Church. He admonished the
congregation to seek knowledge of God, and
of Christ and of redemption through His
blood. Assent is necessary to faith: The
Christian must not only read God's word,
but having read it, accept it The perfect
faith he described as exemplified in the
Virgin Mary. The fruits of taith, he said,
were the emplanting of new life to the soul,
and a desire to do good. By faith man per
ceives the infinite goodness of God.
