THE COMING RIFLE MATCH.

The sharp, vengeful crack Of the
American rifle has been heard forSome
time on the Creedmoor range, New York.
Scores Of men are practicing in that To-
cality in view Of the coming match with
the English team Of sharpshooters this
year, In relation to that match the
Board Of Directors of the National Rifle
Association have decided that the
rifle associations throughout the coun-
try be requested to compete at their
respective ranges, to fix the eligibility
of competitors to shoot at Creed
moor for places on the Ameri-
can team. The ultimate selection
of the team is to be made in four COM
petitions of two days each, at 800, 900
and 1000 yards, fifteen shots at each
range, the competition to take place on
18th and 18th of July. The six highest
aggregates in any three Of these compe-
titions are to form the first six of the
team, and these will select the next
two, and the two next highest will de-
termine the reserves. The shooting
thus far, at New York, has been of such
character as to steadiness, certainty
and team discipline as warrants the be-
lief that the American name will not be
lowered in the coming struggle for
superiority with the rifle. Major Jewell
recently scored 213 in possible score
OF 215.. Mr.. Allen put forteen bull
eyes in, fifteen shots. and reached
seventy-four In a possible seventy
five. This is equal to the best shooting
ever done in the country or across the
water. This shooting was done at three

A STRANGE BIRD STORY.

The San Jose (Cal.) Mercury says
l.. Page and son, cutting wood near San
Jose, noticed for several days that a
number of birds remained constantly
upon O tree near them, some going and
coming from time to time. Upon cut
ting down the tree they discovered
a limb with hollow cavi-
ty, some two feet in length
and three or four inches in diameter, In
which were two full-grown birds of
some goodly-sized species. There was
a small aperture through which the
birds were supplied with food from
their mates. The limb was cut and the
birds liberated. They were neither of
them able to fly, having evidently
never been out of their imprisonment.
How they came inside Is question. It
is probable that the mother bird was
small, and though able to make her
nest in the hollow of the tree and rear
her young could not extrieate them.
and they did not gain strength enough
to help themselves until the hollow had
SO closed that escape was impossible.
Those who examined the birds think
they are about two years old. They had
been fed from their birth by their bird
fellows through the aperture in the
limb of the tree. A nobler instance of
devotion even the human family never
exhibited

BLOWING UP THE sUEZ CANAL,
English Troops to Protect the Canal from
Damage.
TCincinnati ENQUIRER. l

lOIBCtuudu
NEW York, June 21.-The Cairo CORE
spondent OF the Herald telegraphs that
the government of the Khedive has dis
covered the existence of plot that may
exert considerable influence on the
future of the war. Several il-disposed
persons have entered into conspiracy
with the object of destroying the
passage Of the Suez Canal, by blow
ing in the banks with nitro-gly-
eerine at point between Ismalia
and Port Said. The discovery of the
conspiracy has created considerable ex-
element, and the Egyptian government
is seriously alarmed. The most strin-
gent measures of precaution have been
adopted to foil the conspirators. The
khedive has appointed a commission
for the defense Of the canal, with Gen.
Stofe Pasha as president, Admiral Nc
Killop Pasha, Admiral Frederigo Pasha
and Capt. Morice are the other members
the banks, and every possible effort will
be made to prevent the carrying out Of
the design. Il
The English government has taken
the alarm, and requested the Khedive
to watch the canal with renewed vigil
lance. 1t was in compliance with this
request that the commission was ap-
pointed. The publication Of this fact
will probably arouse public opinion In
England to such an extent that the gov
eminent will be called upon to dispatch
troops for the protection Of the canal,
and thus the British government will
be supplied with the pretext that they
have been waiting for. It remains to
be seen in what light Russia and the
Mediterranean States would regard any
English occupation Of Egypt.

If FULL JUSTICE WERE DONE.
IOhieaeo I,imes.l


When the Kellogg Packard. Wells
party were expecting an overhauling in
New Orleans, last winter. it appears,
they did not scruple to put eliminating
records beyond reach of inquisitive
investigators. One johnson, who
was at that time State Auditor and
official custodian of books and docu-
ments that are now needed in further
anee of the ends OF Justice, has just been
sent to jail and fined for refus-
ing to produce the records and
to answer questions propounded by
the Grand Jury. He asserted that some
Of the papers were destroyed and others
taken away when the ring managers
were expecting an attack by the White
League-more probably when they
were expecting enforcement OF the con-
gressional demand for them-last Jan
uary; and that he could not answer the
questions asked in the Grand Jury room
without eliminating himself. It is not
likely that the brief term Of imprison-
ment awarded him is more than the
merest shadow of what Mr.. Johnson
and some of his official associates would
get IL full justice were done.

Useful Eagles.

Two black eagles were recently caught
in the mountains north OF Santa Bar
bara. The sportsman waited until he
saw the parent birds sailing down the
valley and then robbed the nest, which
was 50 feet above ground, and was built
of sticks as thick as a mans wrist.
With some difficulty he secured the
young birds, then about three weeks
old and Of the size Of large chickens.
He got down before the old birds re-
na old beH e snG dsnoss were SIX
rabbit at a meal without indigestion. A
coyote visited the house and destroyed
all the chickens. The eagles were then
placed in the chicken-pe pen, and on the
next morning the coyote returned to get
some more chicken. One Of the eagles
engaged him in combat, and held him
with its talons until the sportsman
heard the outcries and shot the thief.
The full-grown birds Of this rare species
measure eight feet from wing to wing
and are four feet high.-[Exchange.
