Two quails, flying at full speed, flew against a large window, 40 x 44 inches, in the south side of Snow Hall last week, and broke it all to pieces. The quails dropped dead, and Professor Williston, to get even for the destruction of the window, took them home and ate them for his dinner. The quails were being chased by a hawk, and keeping their gaze directly backward in their anxiety to escape, and met death in another manner.
