It went ou to uarrate thrtt "after the .powder anil smoke had cleared away the services were resumed." Head ing "hetwecu* the lines", some people had inferred that tin* incident was OOSRMttHl with a colored congrcgaUon. but people who know negro folklore were not 80 de ceived, A colored congregation would shave run the pastor off to the protection of the jay and irt avoidance of the pen ally that might have been incurred through murder of the bird. For the jay is iu some way regarded as a mes senger of satau. Any darkey of the old regime will tell you that the jay makes regular pilgrimages to the dark regions every Friday and returns equipped with some new agency of devilment. It wa? the jay bird, who in a tit of auger at a woman who had shooed it out of her garden, angrily plucked up an innocent pepper plant and went to hell .with It returning with the pepper plaut in the redkot condition it has ever since main tained. And if it had been on a Fri day, instead -of on a Sunday the jay was slain in Church, the preacher would have had eleven of them to kill the fol lowing Sunday, because the Frid^v-slain jay i? known to return with the com ing of the ensuing Friday accompanied by ten other jays. Parttor Wray and his congregation were manifestly ignorant, of popular jaybird traditions .or they would uever ha vp got themselves into the As- 1 Press i ??p??rts.' Hut It develops J that it was ndt for four they might have i been classified as among the .colored j churches that they were concerned. The it Atemf iitu ; Sent out about them proved faulty in some material respects, so the chairman of the board of deacons and tin1 clerk of the' hoard have prepared j an official narrative of the affair. Kyi-' dently the Associated Press did not care to bother with it. for the "correction" comes by way of a circular letter. It i is gravely related by 'the Church offlcors ?that "beforefthd after theSabbath School : hour every couceivhble effort was made to put the bird out of the building, 'buTT the ceiiiug being so high above the tops of the windows, it was impossible. As the Mjuawking of the bird bo Interrupted, the work of the Sabbath School. It was) th^pgbt best to remove It before th?f rprej|ching houi1. During the intermission a small gnu was sent for, which shoots a cartridge about the size of one's little finger, loaded with n)tistnrd shot.

It was then fully thnb^fhe service 'must either be dismissed or the bird shot. The pastor then stated, if the bird con tinued to shriek, he would have to shoot him, though he hated to do so. This was before the sermon. The; rrtiuister did not go to- hi*- home after the gun, but opened the door of the ante-room, secured the gun, shot the bird, which was in the dome of the 'church. The bird was then retfioved by a deacon. There was no smoke from the gun. and very little noise, compared to a shot Mg* ? , ? i Th<* Jaybird having been thus disposed of by a preacher whose aim Was true ( and who probably had Rome experience I in' ringing the "bull's eye from the shoot-!
