Something About Pnrtridsss.

Among the habits Of the partridge
one is that when covey is roosting on
the ground, with their tails bunohed to-
gether in circle, the bunch is sur
mounted by line Of watchful heads,
like sentinels on duty. Another is that
they run the instant the ground is
touched after "flush," the dogs often
trailing them in rabbit hunting fashion.
Their sense Of smell Is evidently very
acute, for during the nesting season, If
the eggs, which number from 10 to 90,
are disturbed in any way or hand even
inserted in the nest, 1t will be immedi-
ately deserted and new one built. A
short time previous to the nesting the
males are often involved in desperate
combats for the choice Of mates, who
stand by and quietly watch the encoun-
ter, seeming not to care which one be-
comes the victor. The incubation is
performed entirely by the female, the
male. when not feeding, often being
perched ON some slight elevation, en-
couraging her by his mellow toned call
Of "bobwhite. Two and sometimes
three broods of young are reared during
a season, the nesting beginning as early
as May 1. Later in the fall the broods
Of young occasionally join forces, but
whether from want Of company or for
protection is not known.
When feeding, the birds are some-
times scattered several yards apart, but
at the first sign Of danger an alarm ia
given, and they Immediately "bunch, "
with their heads placed close together,
as il in consultation. The first shot into
q covey will often cause them to break
and fly in all directions, and II not dis
turbed again for several minutes "soat-
ter calls" will be heard On every side.
These are made to collect the remaining
birds, who again bunch. Many Of the
market gunners seem to have no qualms
Of conscience and very often kill with
out hesitation an entire covey, when al
least one or two pairs Of birds should
be left for breeders. s.-Baltimore Sun.

Question OF Adipose.

A criminal lawyer Of long experience
at the bar was heard to say the other
day:
II have made juries in murder cases
an especial study. There arc . large
number Of men. larger than most peo-
pie suppose. who have soruples about
finding death % punishment for q
murderer. l used to make It my bust

they had scruples about the death sen.
tenoe. I gave this up. though, as being
beyond my power Of comprehension.
Later continued study of the jury box
led me to discovery. That was that
In nine cases out Of ten o jury composed
mostly Of tall, lean men would. when
the evidence was sufficient, never have
the slightest hesitation about fixing ex-
treme sentence. On the other hand, q
jury where short, fat men predominated
in number would occupy twice az much
time in finding its verdict. and when
brought in it would generally be term

ing boys alone, says q writer In Chuma
As oolliery manager said the other
day, "There may be score OF cases OF
that kind after single accident and
nobody be any the wiser"
"A boy told me once" he proceeded,
"that after an explosion one Of the men
who was with him brought him along
q considerable distance in the workings.
At last they met the afterdamp. The
lad was so terrified, 80 anxious TO get
out, that he wanted to rush through
and make his way to the shaft. II he
had gone on. Ne certainly would have
dropped, but the man would not let
him. He stopped him by force, and
though the lad bit and fought like q
little demon he stuck to him and held
him near to the ground, SO that they
could breathe. How do you think he
Gained the boy at last? Sang comic
songs to him. Well, they had to keep
where they we're for about five hours,
and then, when the air had got better,
the man started of and brought tho
youngster out safely, though once he
was nearly suffocsted by the afterdamp.
Now, there's case that nobody would
have heard Of probably II the lad hadn't
happened to have told me about 1t. "
As an instance Of hsroism in this d.
rection that Is known, however, I re-.
call a story I heard near the bank Of the
Hyde pit after the explosion in 1889.
You know that the slightest delay in
