After tne - Mallards 8 jl. Brran Makes : . ! Another Bemar table 8hot. ! Syl. Bryan, who seem to have won the position of champion duck hunter of the Cape Fear, went pown the river in bis "dug-out" again yesterday in quest of the web-footers, his favorite old -8-gauge, He -carried presented to him by the late Capt. D. and the right barrel was! six drams of powder and R. Murchison, charged with four ounces of No. 2 shot. Syl. "paddled his own canoe", and ra ved stealthily up Red mond creek, where he took a position near which he thought the ducks would come to make their-breakfast jbn the wild-oats 'that fringe that sluggish stream. j It was about 5 o'clock a. m., and Syl. has a very distinct recollection that it was a trifle cold, and he was correct; for tW.tberrnometer registered 11 degrees below the freezing point. Bipt Syl. didn t freeze. He sat in that "dug-out" like "Patience on a monument" and bided his time. Just as the first gray streaks of dawn appeared in the Eastern sky, a flock of mallards circled overhead, and after satisfying themselves that no danger lurked near. pitched" within i twenty-five yards of the jBryan battery. Then a pair of bull-necks dropped be yond and within about twenty feet of the mallards. There was aa even jdozen (not the fateful thirteen)! of the latter, and they formed a picture farjjmore beautiful to the hunter than the choicest productions of the "old masters." J I , As soon as the raaliards "bunched up," as Sylvanus informed a STAR repre sentative, with the two bull-necks picely In line, the 8 -gauge was raised aftd, in the twinkling of an eye a report loud and deep rang out, there- was a mjgbty fluttering in the water, and Sylyanus had the proud satisfaction of discovering that he bad killed the entire flock of mallards with the two bu I-necks thrown in for good measure. Hi: recounted this exploit with the air of one who has con fidence in his statements, and it isn't in the heart of the old hunter of the &TAR to question bis veracity.' After this re markable shot, Syl. cont inued his bunt until be had gathered in thirty-two ducks, when he .returned to the tity. reaching here by 10.30 aj m.

The Beoent Cold Weather Qare Hunters the Fittest 8port Had Here in Many : Tears. . - ' . " The freezing weather of the past two weeks has given sportsmen the best woodcock shooting known here in-many years. The woodcock feeds on worms, which it secures by boring deep into the earth with its long bill, and when the earth Is frozen it can only find its sup ply -' of. food by resorting to ' the edges of little creeks and' branches where the running water ' does not - freeze. ; On this account' the usual haunts of the woodcock' are deserted, and the area in which they can successfully prosecute their search for food becomes so circumscribed that they can be easily located, and fall an easy prey to the sportsman, who is ardent enough to brave a temperature ranging anywhere from 15 to 30 degrees Faren heit." ; U'- - . The woodcock, though usually more sluggish in its flight than the snipe -and the partridge, is nevertheless one of the most magnificent of be game birds. Its plumage is soft and beautiful, and its flesh has a flavor that is relished by the luxurious feeder. The genuine sports man would ; rather bag twenty wood cocks than forty partridges in a day's hunt, though it must be admitted that it is a much rarer bird than the ' part radge in this section, ; CITY MARKETS- J Prices for Meats, Vegetables, Fish, Fruits, i Qame, Etc, 1 j .
