Show Stoat Family In Hard Luck. There Is a family of ten young pheasants which enjoyed a miraculous escupe from death while yet In their shells. One morning an English gamekeeper came face to face with a stont bearing one of the eggs ; she paid the penalty, and It was then found thnt all the eggs were missing. He suspended the dead robber In a hedge and set a trap below, In which her ninte was taken. Their nest was found near by and among the baby stoats were the missing eggs. A massacre of Innocents followed Innocents they were, since not an egg had been touched. The keeper bore the eggs home in his shirt to a broody fowl, who duly hutched the young birds. |
