Bob White.

Bob-bob white! I stopped my work
in the field and listened. Yes there was
no mistake-the musical note, that I
had last heard in the Mississippi valley,
more than twenty years ago, came again,
clear and distinct-bob white-with the
accent strong on the white, to assure me
that he was the only and original bob
white.
The male bob white Tor quail is dis
tinguished by clear white lines under
the eyes, the lines showing yellow on the
female bird. They are very prolific,
laying from l6 to 20 eggs and occasion
ally raising second covey in the season.
The writer when boy found nest with
23 eggs, of which % finally hatched.
They are extremely domestic in their
habits, nesting and rearing their young

A Novel Swinllle.

A smooth individual in New York has
hit upon plan of obtaining money with
out hard work and at the same time get
even with the police and detective force
in the west. His method is to send out
a circular to the police in the different
cities and towns stating that man had
absconded with $4,000 in money to-
gether with several thousand certificates
of a land syndicate in Nova Scotia. This
letter is followed by another in few
days announcing thata clerk in the office
had subsequently been arrested and had
confessed the plot, stating that the Ger
titicates had been shipped to a certain
address to various points in the west.
The letter requests the police to watch
the express Office, secure the package,
pay charges thereon and send bill to the
firm, 1t also requests the authorities to
keep a sharp lookout for the absconder,
and arrest him.
Two of the Great Northern secret ser
vice men were in the city Sunday night
engaged in tracing up the packages that
have been shipped over their line. They
found one in Kalispell and it leaked out
that similar packages have been sent to
almost every town in Montana. The fel-
low clears about $3.50 upon every pack
age where the police comply with the
seemingly innocent request to "please
secure the package, pay charges and
forward bill to firm" Several packages
have been stopped en- route, and the Of
ticers are hot on the trail of the swindler,

people of Galveston were like rats in n
trap, the highest portion of the city be-
ing from four to five feet under water,
while in great majority of cases the
streets were submerged to the depth of
ten feet, and to leave the house was to
drown; to remain, was to court death in
wreckage."
Chicago, Sept. 1O.-The following
statement of the situation at Galveston
and along the coast was received tonight;
From the latest reports which are
considered reliable the disaster at Gal
weston and along the coast has not been
exaggerated. The waters of the gulf
and bay met, covering the island to a
depth of six to - feet. During this
sudden flood most terrible storm was
raging; the wind blowing about 50 miles
an hour. Many of the dead have been
recovered and others are still under the
debris, while others were carried out to
sea. 1t is not possible to give at this
time reliable report as to the number
OF deaths. From estimates made by
reliable persons who have Just come
from Galveston it is believed that 1900
and possibly as many. as 1000 people
were drowned. Of course the wounded
are numerous. Damage to property is
shocking, some if the best buildings be-
ing wrecked Thousands of homes were
swept entirely away. 1t is quite safe to
set this as one of the greatest disasters
that has ever visited us. The loss of
property is irreparable and the loss of
life is appalling"
Washington, Sept. lO.-Many cities in
the United States have already sent aid
to the sufferers at Galveston, and others
are preparing to do so. The telegraph
wires are still down and communication
with the stricken city is simply impossi-
BILE. The president sent message to
Governor Sayers and instructed the sec
aetary of war to provide rations and
tents.

first l would say: If you are tempted to
shoot by good opportunity and because
your target is rare game bird, be a
man-dont shoot. Let bob white have
a chance to grow up with the country.
With regard to the pothunter, the only
way to squelch him is to report him on
evidence, regardless of friendship, bust
ness Or politics.
The next thing is the matter of feed in
the winter. All of our native game
BIRDS, as soon as the ground feed fails,
take to the trees and thrive on buds and
leaves. Not so with bob white; he seeks
his food on the ground at all seasons,
We have no cornfields for the little fel-
low to roam through, no buckwheat
patches left standing, and he will no
doubt fare ill if he is not looked after
and fed when the snow lies deep, A
sheaf of wheat left standing upright
where covey is located would last a
long while. A few handsful of wheat
in a shallow box or on board. with
straw or hay scattered about, would an
swer until covered by falling snow.
The public spirited citizens who, at
considerable expense of time and money,
have introduced this game bird into the
valley, have conferred a benefit upon the
farmers, and l have no doubt every far
mer will appreciate the fact and do what
they can to foster and protect the birds
While necessary, and it goes without
saying that no farmer, farmers boy or
true sportsman will shoot them, or fail
to report others doing SO.

in orchards and near farm buildings.
They are essentially an insectivorous
bird, feeding during the summer in the
gardens and grain fields on bugs, worms,
grasshoppers and the like. In some To-
calities they are called the farmers
friends and are carefully cared for dur
ing the winter and protected against
shooters at all times and regardless of
any legal open season.
They are in some ways peculiar bird.
At night they roost Gf I may use the
term) in a circle tails to the center and
heads to the outside; they also have the
power of Withholding their scent and
often battle the keenest- -nosed dogs in
heavy cover.
To some extent they are migratory
bird and l have known them, when full
grown, in the fall, to gather on the banks
of the Mississippi in enormous focks,
apparently hesitating to take the mile
flight across the river.
After the migration the coveys that
remain locate in groves, thickets and on
the bushy banks of creeks, always seek
ing such places that have dense growth
of grass, which apparently furnishes
cover and safety; not always, however,
as an instance will show. AS l was
hunting one day along hazel thicket
with edges well grown up with grass, a
rabbit jumped up in the open and made
for the thicket. AS he reached it
bowled him over and he turned somer
sault into a bunch of half dozen bob
whites I had involuntarily potted.
Bob white makes his living in the
corn country through the winter by fol-
lowing the cattle through the corn fields
picking up the stray kernels and when
the snow becomes deep he comes for his
dinner in the barnyards and even into
the buildings. In very severe winters
the species becomes almost extinct in the
northern states, the prairie blizzards
drifting the snow and burying entire
flocks.
1t remains to be seen how this gamey
little fellow will thrive in his Rocky
mountain home. There are only two
things, in my opinion, that will prevent
an increase-that will in few years
produce thousands of the finest game
that ever delighted the heart of sports
man or epicure. The first of the two is
the shotgun in the hands of the thought
less shooter, or the pothunter. To the

special to the Bee.
Washington, Sept. 1O.-Developments
today in the Chinese situation still point
to the speedy withdrawal of the United
States troops from China. General Chat
fee has added the weight of his opinion
to that already entertained by many of
ticials here. No confirmation is at hand
here OF the report that Great Britain and
Germany hove joined in an agreement to
remain together in Pekin, regardless of
the attack of other powers. Should this
be true the fact doubtless would surely
hasten the formed movement of the
American troops, for there is a firm dec
laration to avoid becoming involved in
any clash between powers such as might
reasonably be expected to follow con-
tirmation of this reported British Ger
man program.

Mr. winters states that fully 700 feet
OF development work has been done, and
4OO feet of stopping ground blocked out.
Ihe ore bodies average between 4 and )
per cent copper and are prodigious in
extent. A force of seventeen men is at
present employed at the mine, but it is
the intention to double it within a few
days.
Mr.. Esler has contract to mine, mill
and market 100000 tons of ore within
three and half years, dating from last
June, and as the last nine wagon loads
of machinery arrived for the mill last
week, it is expected that the concentra
tor will start up between the LIST and 10th
of September. The ore will reduce to As
or % per cent concentrate.
The mine is in tirst-class condition,
and improves steadily with development,
and as under his contract Mr.. Esler will
be required to produce on an average
about sixteen car loads of ore a day; the
necessity for a railroad will be obvious.
Mr.. Winters states that as soon as sutfi-
Gent tonnage can be secured Il railway
will be built from Durham to the district
and this will more than likely be accom-
pllshed next spring.
There is considerable call for Michigan
n Montana stock, but the company has
none tor sale at any price. Its par value
IS Sl, but $3.50 was offered for some
shares of the stock in Spokane Il short
time ago and refused; $40 was the price
Mr.. Winters paid for the last block he
was able to obtain.
The company was organized in Sep
tember, 1898, with a capital stock of $S,-
OOO in 5000 shares of the par value of 81.
The officers of the company are as fol
lows: L. B. Goetter of Caldwell, Wash,
president; o. Peterson of kalispell, Mont,
vice president and A. ID. Macdonald of
kalispell, secretary and treasurer. These
MIR. Strickland, form the board of direc-
tors.
Articles of incorporation have been
taken out by the owners of the jose
phine mine under the name of the Jose
phine Copper Mining company. The
capital stock is 100000 in an equal num-
Der of shares of the par value of 81.
The incorporators are M. F. Gleason,
Bruce Peters, o. S. Main, Farley Stark,
Scott Stark, Arthur McGiven and Jo-
seph Brown.
1t is understood that Il concentrator
will be erected in the near future on this
property, as the mine is in first class
shape. The average assay shows the
property to carry II per cent copper,
$1.SO in gold and - ounces in silver.
There are immense bodies of pay ore in
the Josephine and the work of develop
ment is to be pushed, another force of
men going on Immediately.
A contract has been let to the sawmill
for 100000 feet of lumber, and it is said
that this lumber is to be delivered to the
Josephine for the construction of the
mill.
The owners of the mine have each a
one seventh interest in the stock, and in
a few days the stock, or rather part of
it, will be placed on the market. Many
competent judges declare it to be their
opinion that the Josephine will prove to
be the biggest bonanza in the camp

ments regarding the construction of a

Houston, Sept. H. Richard Spillan,
a we'll known Galveston man reached
Houston today after terrible expert
ence. He says:
"One of the most awful tragedies of
modern times has visited Galveston. The
city is in ruins and the dead will prob
ably number 1000. am just from the
city, having been commissioned by the
mayor and the citizens committee to
get in touch with the outside world and
appeal for help. When ] left Galveston,
shortly before noon yesterday, people
were organizing for the prompt burial of
the dead, distributing food ad doing all
necessary work during the period of the
disaster.
1.-THE wreck of Galveston was brought
about by tempest so awful that no
words can adequately describe it's inten-
sity, and by flood which turned into a
raging sea. The weather bureau record
shows that the velocity of the wind was
81 miles an hour when the instruments
blew away, so it is impossible to tell
what was the maximum. The storm be-
gan about2 o'clock Saturday morning.
Previous to that time great storm had
been raging in the gulf, and the tide
was very high. The wind came at first
from the north and was in direct oppo-
sition to the storm from the gulf. while
the storm in the gulf piled water from
the bay upon the bay part of the city.
By o'clock the waters of the gulf and
bay met. and by dark the entire city was
submerged. The flooding of the electric
light and gas plants left the entire city
in total darkness. To go out into the
streets was to court death. The wind
was then at cyclonic velocity, roofs, por-
tions of buildings, telegraph poles and
walls were falling, and the noise of wind
and crushing buildings was terrific in
the extreme. The wind and water rose
steadily from dark until l :45 o'clock Sun
day morning. During all this time the

FEDERAL GAME LAW.
The Lacy Bill Is Now In F0rce.-POt
Hunters VIII BE PrOscc1ptesl.

Chicago, Sept. 5.-There is some sig
niticance in this years game season open
ing, in so far as the law regulating the
shooting and shipping of all game is
concerned. Wardens throughout differ
ent states and organizations that try to
prevent the wholesale slaughter and
shipment of birds for the market, now
have Il federal law to assist them in
bringing pot hunters to justice.
The law is named after Congressman
Lacey, and was passed at the last ses-
sion of the national legislature 1t is an
amendment to the interstate commerce
law, and prevents traffic in game for
commercial purposes and it's shipment
out of the state where the law forbids.
Any person or transportation company
found violating the law is liable to u fine
of, $500 for the first offense.
The new law was put into effect when
it was seen that the state laws were be.
ing violated continualle, and game being
fast exterminated by men who made it a
business of killing it in large numbers
and selling it. Today will be the first
time Il test as to it's effectiveness can he
given. 1t is predicted by wardens that
individuals and transportation compan-
les will pay more heed to this law than
they have done to those of the different
states.
The League of American Sportsmen,
the president of which is G. 0. Shields,
of New York, will assist in the enforce
ment of the law. There are branches of
this league in every state and the mem
bers number about 2OOO The transpor-
tation companies have not yet been mott
fed that the law is in effect. It is not
thought they will disobey it, in view of
the fine attached to its violation.
Already number of restaurants have
advertised the fact that game may be
had in their places. The market for the
buying and selling of game does not
open until October l, and owners of eat
ing houses will be notified of this.
M. II. bartree, FORMER state game war
den, who drafted an amendment to the
interstate commerce act for the protec-
tion of game, is taking an active interest
in the efforts to prevent the illegal traffic.
Game ought not to be made an article
of commerce" said Mr.. Bartree. I'VE
are trying to prevent such thing, and
hope to be successful The state law
seems to have no effect on preventing
unscrupulous hunters from destroying
game by the wholesale, but the Lacey
law will. The law can be enforced by
any person"
Lewis Lehle, of Chicago. is the Illinois
warden for the league, He has done
much for the enforcing of the state laws,
and will assist in carrying out the pro-
visions of the Lacey bill.
