After chasing those doves several miles and using up all of bis shells, he comes back and finds his friend calmly load ing and firing at a “kitty-hawk” sitting on a tree, which, so far as any thing Is known to the contrary is still sit ting there as be bad not flown when the ammunition gave out, Tbe friends were a little blue over their bad luok and were beginning to quarrel, when tbe taller of tho two saw an old erow on a fence. They stopped again, and after a pretty sharp race they captured the bird, whioh could not fly, and pausing at a negro cabin, they had him cooked, and either one of them will now tell you that crow is far ahead of any other kind of game, both in delicacy and flavor.

He was caught at this and made to replace the stolen property. Yet he still hung around, and when the clerk was busy with a customer in the front part of the store Everett picked up a small jug, and going to a barrel of gin, deliberately Ailed it from tbe spigot. He then car ried the jug out of tbe back door and hiding it under the steps, walked into the store again and stood around for a few minutes longer. In the meantime Mr. Slappey’s clerk had sent out for a policeman who arrived just after Ever ett had gone out of the front door.
