Dey , of the Oinah * signal office , has con

petitive examination at Washington , and
will leave for the east in a few days. Of
his succest we hive no doubt.
A sportsman siys thai he fears that
the deep snow of ths present winter will
be disastrous to next year's quail crop.
The deep suow entirely shuts oil feed for
the Bob Whites , and there is nothing I ft
for the birJs that were bon to grace we'l-
done toast but t turn up their toes ia the
drifts. Quail * d > not migrate much , and
if their dyin by famine i < as gen > ral as
fearel , it will b ? some years before they
are plenty again. Tha prairie chlck .ns ,
such as are not trapped and shipped , are
apt to winter ullriht in the numerous un-
gathered corn fields.

nounce the incorporation of the Omaha
Shot company and which has kept the
public well posted in the progress of
the enterprise ever since , takes pleas
ure in announqirg that tha first shot
was dropped in the new eatabl shment
Wene day night at 6 o'clock precisely
The process of dropping shot ia a
very curious and interesting one , and
a brief description will not ba out tf
place at this limp. .
The tower is five stories high and
the operation of mauufac.uring the
product , the reverse of the uau 1
course of affairs , begins in the fifth
story of "thetower. . " This is the
"dropping room , " 24x16feetinsize. Iu
the northeast corner stands a furnace
nd kettlfs for the "drop shot , "
while iu tha southeast corn r is a fur
nace and kettle for "back-shot , "
which is moulded. When the molten
metal is taken from the kettle it is
poured through a bottomless , cup-
shaped vessel into a pan eight inches
In diameter , the bittern of
which is perforated with small
holes. The pan rests on a
frame and the cup stands inside it.
The lead is then poured in and being
distributed equally through the pan ,
passes through the prfnctnred bottom
and f.Us a distance of 165 feet to the
bottom of.ihs shaft , in its descent as
suming the form of small globules , but
not all of the same size as one might
naturally expect.
It is next drawn up , iu the kettle
into which it has-fallen , to the third
story and goi > s into a large ci > cultr ;
pan , heated by steam and c.llcd "the
dryer , " after which it returns to the
second story.
Here it ia paised over
the plnnes , sevwii largo , smooth
wooden platforms with spaces forr
catching the imperfect shot. Down
these pi inus the shot is rollrd , every
perfect shot reaching the bottom in
safety , while the imperfectly for-ned
globules f-.ll into the jpicua acd stiik.
The perfect shot is then taken to
the first floir , where It ia passed
through "the separators.,1 These are
v'bratlng ' drawers , with perforated bottoms
toms which assort the shot in aizea ,
numbering from 1 to 10 and land c > icb
In a separate heap reidy te bs t ag ed
for the market.
The amount dropped lent night was
seven hundred and twenty pounds
and we understand the managers are
much pleased with the success of their
first experiment.

It will be remembered that a tnoe- *
Ing was called for the "Temperance
Bee Hive" on lait Friday evoiingbut ]
owing to the exTBinely cold WBther
only a few came in response to the "
call. It was thf'Uaht ' moat' beneficial
to postpone the opening meeting un

very interesting programme is pri-
