'ROSPECT FOR GOOD HUNTING.
Wild Oats Plentiful in Marshes and
on Flats. 1
If big crops are any sign the hunting
eason on the Potomac this fall should be
xiinordinary. On the flats in the rear of ^
he pier at Shepherds landing, on the Dis- ^
rict side of the river, near Alexandria, g
in the flats at the south end of the new ^
lighway bridge and in Four-Mile run the d
vild grain is so thick that it is going ro be n
lifWcult to shove a boat through it next
nonth. when hunting begins. ^
Reedbirds and other game birds, as well a
is wild ducks, are fond of wild oats. They j
lock where food is most plentiful. The
ine growth of wild oats should attract
he birds and make hunting good. t
The patcli of oats in the rear of Shep- t
ierds Is within the District of Columbia, .
nd is in territory forbidden to hunters,
aist season the harbor police arrested a
lumber of hunters found in the marsh at .
Shepherds. In the Police Court lines were g

and Does It Properly. ]
_________ }
/ e
The champion scrapper of Naylor's alley
ti the eight to twelve year class appeared :
n the Juvenile Court yesterday afternoon :
or a judicial inquiry Into why he hit a ]
>oy several years his cider in the head ;
vith a rock and then pounded him up :
generally. j
The champion is Willie Johnson, nine
ears old. black as midnight, witli a resoute
-expression and two miniature fists as ;
lard as steel. >
Willie was specifically charged with "as- ;
vaulting, feloniously beating and severely J
njuring" James Howland.
Willie first smashed Jimmic in the head
vith a stone, it was testified, and then
leld him and played a merry tattoo on ?
he victim's belfry until there was a
feneral cross-cross and counterlining of
leep jagged cuts which afterward neces- ]
iltated several packages of plaster and a
ard or more of bandages to repair. Not
:ontent with this, Willie then proceeded
o blacken one of Jimmie's optics, and |
ountered rather heavily on his oppo- ,
tent's mouth and chin.
James' was a sorry sight when he ap- '
>eared as the prosecuting witness yester- <
lay. 1
"How did it all happen?" a court at- j
endant asked.
"He's been a-piekin' on me fo' de las'
veek o' moli." asserted the victor. "An' '
dst'day when Ah wall comin' home wif |
some mushmel'ns he tuks one 'om my
lan's an' smashes it, an' washes mah
ace wif de Insldfcs. Say, mister, dat ]
dn't no way toe do, is it?" '
"No, indeed," was the reply. "Then .
vhat happened?" ,
"What liappen?" replied Willie. "Dere (
vas 'nuff happen. Ah t&k er rock an'
ih swiped wif it. Den ah raps him
t few ober de roof, an' den I jolts him
vif de right an' c'oses de glym. an' I
Iraws de ela'et wif de lef' an' lan's a few ]
vif do feet. He ain't done nuffin' but |
un home an" holler." j
The boy stuck to his story before Judge t
Lallan, and drew a graphic oietnre of the
:antaIoupe face-washing episode. The
:ourt found no testimony to contrad.ct
rVillie's story.
The case was dismissed with an order 2
hat both boys should be soundly spanked
>y their respective mothers. The court
ilso warned Willie to beware of rocks,
tnd shun them as the worst of jail
igents.
Willie wasn't aware of the spanking orler
until he was about to leave the witless
room. Then some one suggested that
le e.quip himself with a board or an extra
>air of trousers. (
"Huh." muttered tlie boy. "Dat's w'at
t feller gits fo' boin' de chamneeun ob de
ille.v. Ah'se neber eomin' no mo'h agin I

PENSIONS FOR OLD PRINTERS.
Secretary Seibold Corrects a Misapprehension
Regarding Matter.
George G. Seibold. secretary of Colum- j
hia Typographical Union. No. 101. said i
today that owing to some misapprehen- j
sion the statement concerning the payment
of old-age pensions to printers had >
become slightly confused, and that the
checks covering the four weeks ending j
August "JO would be distributed about]
September 3. Mr. Seibold said that print- :
ers entitled to pensions had been calling
on him frequently since the statement
was published that the checks would
be mailed Saturday, August 15.
Old-age pensions are payable to members
of the union over sixty years of
age and who have been connected with
typographical unions for twenty years.
A man must be unable to obtain sustaining
employment to be eligible, and
any one earning over ft a week is not
entitled to a pension.
The local union will make up its report
for the four weeks ending August
lis), forward U to the International Typographical
Union at Indianapolis, and
when it has been approved, the checks
will be sent out from the office of the
local secretary.
