twltter Of the whole young COW

twitter of the whole young COW
ey.
In the early dawn OF morning
on the open prairie or on farm
or field one can hear in all direc-
tions the melodious call "Bob
White" OF the male partridge,
and soon the neighboring birds
liven the former stiffness with
their answer.
Beside the gun of the hunter
the partridge is exposed to other
dangers, especially hawks, snakes
and other animals Of prey.
During one of my hunting trips
l noticed from distance a part
ridge that was being chained by
rattlesnaKe. The bird would
continually jump from the
ground, stirring up the dust into
little cloud, and it seemed i'm
possible for the bird to get out OF
the reach of the snakes eyes.
After watching this peculiar game
for a while, and stepping nearer
to the snake with cooked gun,
the partridge disappeared and the
RATHER wound its way toward a
large cactus bush, where in the
midst Of thick chapparal there
was situatued a large prairie rat
nest. But before the RATHER could
slip into one of the rat holes l gave
it a shot and took the head with
me to prepare the poisonous
fangs.
THE RAT NESTS.
The praire rat nests are very
peculiar occurrences in the west
Texas hunting grounds, especial
in the cactus bushes. Often they
where has been gathered mes
quite wood, one finds a mound OF
accumulated decayed wood, man
ure, animal skeletons, often with
we'll preserved skulls of small
rodents. In each of these rat nests
one finds passages that lead In
all possible directions, communi.
eating for miles with other nests,
This is the favorite haunt OF
the prairie rat, all sorts Of snakes,
opossums, skunks, bush rabbits
and also owls and lizards. o

THE WILD DOVE.


OF all migrating pigeon species,
the wild Texas dove is the most
abundant in this country. In
spring and winter, but more
especially in autumn,in the months
Of September and October, short.
ly after the Matching season is
over, the wild dove is to be found
in large flocks in corn, oats or
millet fields, or in the prairie or
billy regions where the wild
Mexican tea grows luxuriantly,
and where they find their food
from seeds of different herbs or
Of different plants. But especially
Is it in the fields, pastures and
regions where the wild sunfiowers
and white thistle grow, and
where at the same time q stream
Of running or stagnsnt water, so
called water holes or tanks stand,
that the wild dove Is at home and
is met with most abundantly. AS
stated, the proper wild dove hunt.
ing season is in autumn after the
sunfiower seeds ripen and fall to
the ground, and the doves are
fat and fall an easy prey to the
Nimrod. During this time hun
dreds and thousands Of wild doves
come flying from all directions
Of the globe and light in the SUM-
flower or millet fields or the
prairie near the farm water
holes or in post oaks trees where
they delight the hunters heart
with their simple but melodious
song.
The best time to hunt the wild
dove Is either early in the morning
especially during a drizzly, rainy
day, when they sit close together
on the mesquite or other prairie
trees, often in large flocks, or in
the evening-which is really the
best time-when they come in
large flocks from all directions
from the fields and light on the
ground or trees surrounding the
water places. The hunter general
ly hides himself behind bush
in shooting range, and waits until
a number Of doves gather near
the water, or light on the branches
of the trees and bushes. Some
times, especially where there is a
high walled water tank, the hunt
or can sneak close upon a num-
Der of doves aud shoot a half

j. l.. Queen, AN agent for Photographic
supplies, and W. S Gordon, representative of
Leslie's Weekly, New York City, called at
the HERALD Office this morning and COM
planned of outrageous treatment they re-
ceivcd at the hands of a son Of Robert Smith,
the East Centre street truck dealer. They
stated that in passing the store one Of them
struck match ON fruit basket and young
Smith addressed foul and abusive language to
him for doing so. Gordon pulled the boy S
cap down over his eyes and the boy ran into
the store, returning almost instantly with a
knife used to cut fruit stalks in his
hand and making threatening ges-
lures Queen took the knife from the
boy and sustained a cut on one Of his fingers.
The boy then secured Flobert gun, but this
was also taken from him and broken on the
pavement by Queen. This ended the affair
for the time and the strangers went to Dabb's
photograph gallery, where Queen had business
to transact When they came out Queen was
accosted by Chief of Police Tosh, who took
hold Of Queen to place him under arrest but
after some argument the matter was dropped
The strangers complain Of the attempted
arrest in view of all the circumstances. Chiet
Tosh, when asked for his version, said that
the Smith boys father asked him to either
get the boys knife or arrest Queen, and thai
the latter surrendered the knife on condition
that he should not be prosecuted.

ooLLIERY IMPROVEMENTS.
Progress of New Work at the Gilbcrton
and Draper.


and Draper.
When the alterations and improvements at
the Gilberton colliery are completed the
mine will be one of the most improved in
the region The breaker is being rc-modeled
and complete changes of locations Of chutes
screens, etc. are being made Eight new
=. & K. igs have already been put in and
two large screens and two shakers are COM
pleted. A supply plane 1000 feet long and
engine to operate it are also completed. Six
large tubular boilers are being walled in and
two others are being located. Foundations
for new engines are being prepared for the
Buck Mountain slope
Inside the mine the Buck Mountain vein
slope has been sunk from the 3rd to the 4th
lift, or 30 yards deeper, having vein at the
bottom of the slope 10 feet inches thick. A
plane is being made between the Bird and Sh
lifts and is down 300 feet on an angle of 25
degrees and will probably continue so for
nearly 200 feet more.
Work started to-day on water shaft south
of the present slopes and not far north of the
p. Il X. station 1t will probably be sunk
1000 feet, or to the depth of the Draper
colliery This shaft will be 12xl2 feet in
the clear and will have four compartments.
A large pair Of engines will be erected
at the top to hoist all the water from
both the Draper and Gilberton collieries, thus
doing away with Is pumps and thousands OF
feet of steam and column pipes. 1t will alsC
lessen the possibilities Of fires, etc, and save
thousands of dollars to the company.
At the Draper colliery they are driving a
tunnel south of the Primrose, at the 3rd lift
distance Of 45O feet and have cut the
/ Holmes, Mammoth, Skidmore and Seven
Foot veins. The Mammoth has been worked
The veins are good and the tunnel is being
extended toward the Buck Mountain.

put ON all freight and coal cars after January
T. 1896, when the recent act of congress re-
quiring all cars to be so equipped viii go into
effect
The Lehigh Valley Railroad Company
made an effort recently to find out the cost of
equippng and operating five branch roads
with trolley. They found that the cost of
equipment and operation was sdch as to
prevent profit. This was due to the fact
that such branch lines could not compete
successfully with existing and Independent
trolley roads, being situated out Of town and
not reaching main streets or thoroughfarcs.
This view of the case prevented any imme-
diate endeavors to compete with the trolley
roads
One day last week an engine and five pas
senger coaches made the fastest and most
wonderful run on the Lehigh Valley road
that has ever been made through that par
ticular section. The train was that of the
Patriotic Order Sons of America excursion.
1t left Wilkcsbarre at 9.15 a. m. and reached
Allentown at IL a. m, occupying just one
hour and forty-fve minutes Reduce ten
minutes from this for slow ups" and taking
water, leaves the actual running time one
hour and thirty-fve minutes for eighty-thrct
miles. This is a record unprecedented in
railroad history over such a curvy road.
