HABITSOF FrHE PARTRIDGE
CURIOUS CHANGES THAT ARE OBSERVED
IN DIFFERENT SEASONS.

"There are many odd and interest
ing things to be said of quail, which is
known Throughout large part of the
country as the partridge" observed 4
naturalist to writer in the Washing
ton "Star.'' For instance, one can
not fail to notice the almost complete
change Of habits of this bird which at
tends the transition from one season
Of the year to another. In the spring
and summer the once shy Bob White
becomes tame. No longer in hocks
the bird turns up everywhere uuder
your feet in the fields, especially ifyou
haunt the vicinity of his nest and
brooding mate. You frequently see
him running along by fence or even
venturing out in the road, while his
CHEEKY, sweet song-for it is a song
albeit of but two notes-rings out
again and again on the summer air.
$50 tame and regardless of her own
safety does the female grow in the
nesting season that not frequently she
will allow herself to be almost trodden
upon before leaving the nest, and |
have known late breeding birds in
grass meadows to sit fearlessly upon
their nests until cut to pieces by the
relentless knives of moving machine
young qnail are perfect little ne
cromancers. Almost as soon as they
are out of the shell they seem to have
the power of making themselves invis-
lille as the wave of wand. The
ground may be as bare as a floor,
but somehow they manage to van
ish utterly from the eye. And
this is trick which they do not en-
tirely forget as they grow older. 1t
takes sharp-eyed sportsman to see
bevy of quail before they rise, even if
the dog is pointing right at them, and
the grass is as it is on lawn.
"By August Bob White begins to
take on different character altogeth-
er from that he has displayed during
the spring and summer. He then
ceases to perch himself in conspicuous
places and sing for the delight of him
self and his friends, both feathered and
and unfeathered He no longer makes
excursions into exposed and dangerous
localities, nor does he trust to the
friendliness of every human leing who
comes his way.
"Gradually he begins to assemble
his family and nearest relatives into
little community, conducted on the
simplest communistic principles, and
he is animated by one allprevadlng
desire-to get through the terrible
open season without being brought to
the griddle.
UNLESS forced to migrate by lack
OF food covey always sleeps within
one hundred yards Of the nest it was
Matched in-and this although it may
have fed all day several miles away.
The sleeping is done in a huddled
ring, tails in, heads out all around, and
so closely punched that good-sized
napkin will cover it. Instinct proba-
ly lies back of this ringmaking. Thus
the shy creatures hope to escape sur
prise from creeping vermin, minks,
weasels foxes, and, in fact, all other
enemies which steal upon them in the
night"

MIGRATORY BIRDS.


our seasons, and nothing more inter-
esting in ornithology, than the migra-
tory flights Of the birds. We welcome
them when they come North in the
spring in tuneful companies as the
most pleasing feature of a reyiving
world, this familiar acquaintance and
that saluting us with well remembered
greetings. Many speedily disappear,
to be sure, but most of them remain to
gladden. our hearts end senses while
we watch them cunningly contrive
their homes and lovingly rear their
young in our gardens and groves.
Then, in the restful, meditative days
Of autumn, the story is reversed.
Birds which we caught glimpe of in
the spring grant us a second brief in
terview, our summer friends are as
sembling and departing, and presently
only the faithful few who reside with
us the year around, plus some winter
visitors from boreal parts, will be seen
in our woods and meadows.
1t appears, then, that we i'll temper
ate ATTITUDES entertain two sets of an
nual visitors-one from the South and
the other from the North. This is
true, and it looks as though the Gus
tom of migration had begun among
the birds-wand>rer by nature-by
their annually distant journeys, in the
course of which they built their nests,
and that after awhile certain ones had
got into the babit of staying in the
new regions or of making only short
and partial migrations which by and
by will cease. 1t is significant that
most of the pronounced migratory
species are errant members of families
mainly tropical.
The sole business Of migratory
birds sojourn in the summer land OF
its choice seems to be the rearing ofa
family. This accomplished, the
thoughts of the birds seem to turn i'm
mediatcly to the South-to the warm,
fruitful, indolent ATTITUDES, where harsh
winds and chilling rains, and fading
leaves never benumb bright spirits.
Then coniugal ties break, fathers for
sake mothers and offspring, and the
latter us fast as strength permits.
Thus again. as wave after wave sweeps
down to us from Canada, as if on
wings OF autumnal breezes, it is notice
able that old males are leading the
hosts of each species, and that only
later, sometimes much later, come fe
males and young, | am careful to
make this matter Of the succession Of
age clear, because Of its notable signi-
ticance in the problem How do birds
find their way? The old answer was
short and easy Instinct tells them.
This means, if it means anything, that
n bird is born with an intuitive know
ledge of road he has never seen, per-
haps crossing an ocean. Moreover,
migration routes are rarely straight
lines north and south, to which the
little creatures might be kept by some
mysterious ''sense of polar direction"
but are usually somewhat roundabout,
often crooked, and sometimes squarely
cast and west for large part Of the
course.

"A QUESTION.

Is there God above
With power supre ne,
Whose rule is the rule OF love,
Or is it a dream:
Il there a hand to sway,
And can there be One on high
Who hears when the faithful pray,
When the stricken sigh?
Is faith foolish thing
For the weak alone?
Must the hope to which women cling
BE but their own?
Shall we laugh at the men who pray?
Shall we scotf the men who preach:
Shall we call them fools who may
Believe there's a heaven to reach:
If the precious stones have flaws
Shall we cast it Out!'
Shall we, too, doubt because
Some wise man had doubt?
Shall he by whom the temples p'annei
Be deemed a clown,
And he be rated great and grand
Who burns it down?
Is there over us all to-day
A God who rules?
Or must We consider that they
Who believe are fools:
The ape and the OK and the ass bend knees
To no hidden goi of their;
Shall we join in the unbeet uf these
And give up cur prayers?

In the spring the birds are singing
AS they build their summer home,
Blades of grass and buds are springing
Ger the mead the cattle roam.
In the spring your blood is freighted
With the germs that cause disease,
Humors, boils, are designated
Signals warning you of these.
In the spring that tired feeling
Makes you every duty shirk,-
Makes you feel like begging, stealing,
Rather than engage in work.
But there's something known that will a
Man to health and vigor lead.
You will find Hoods Sarsaparilla
Just exactly what you need.

ORIGIN OF VISITING CARDS.

''The use of visiting cards dates
back to quite an antiquity" explains
Mrs. Van Koer: Schuyler, in the
Ladies' Home Journal Formerly
the porter at the lodge OR door OF
great houses kept visitors book, in
which he scrawled his idea of the
names of those who called upon the
master and his family, and t, whose
inspection it was submitted from time
to time. One fine gentleman, a scion
of the nobility from the Faubourg st.
Germain, was shocked to find that his
porter kept so poor register OF the
names of those who had called upon
him. The names, badly written with
spluttering pen and pale or muddy
ink, suggested to him the idea of writ
ing his own name upon slips of paper
or bits OF cardboard in advance OF call
ing upon his neighbors lest his name
should fare as badly at the hands of
their porters. This custom soon be-
came generally established"

GEN. OTIS INTERVIEWED.
Aguinaldo's Followers Said to BE Fast De.
sorting Him and the War Is Prac-
tically Ended.

San Francisco, June 5.-After five
days in quarantine at Angel island,
Maj. Gen. f. S. Otis, who arrived
last Wednesday from Manila, was al
lowed to land yesterday. When seen
by reporter of the Associated press
Gen. Otis was asked what would be
the effect of the war if the report of
Aguinaldo's death was true. He said
that the war was practically ended,
that Aguinaldo's followers were de-
serting him fast and those who now
remain with him are generally of the
lower class. Most of his officers have
left him, though some still remain
in touch with him. Some of those
who have left him are now engaged in
business in Manila and others are
hiding in the mountains. Many of
his closest followers are very friendly
toward the United States and that as
soon as the natives in general gain
confidence in the friendly Offices and
the Americans there would be little
difficulty in bringing them to terms.
Gen. Otis would not state whether
or not he favored the retention of
the islands by this country. In re-
Spouse to such query he merely
said: eve have got them now. What
are we to do about it?''

Is AGUINALDo DEADP
Nal. March Goes on the Trail and Shoots
an Ohicer Supposed to BE the
Filipino Chief.

Nlgan, Luzon, via Manila, June A.
Maj. March, with his detachment of
the Thirty-third regiment, on May 10
at La Cat, about 100 miles northeast
of Vigan, killed or wounded an officer,
supposed to be Aguinaldo, whose body
was removed by his followers. Maj.
March struck Aguinaldo's outpost
about mile outside of La Cat, kill,
ing four Filipinos and capturing two.
From the latter he learned that
Aguinaldo had camped there for the
night, although exhausted and half
starved, Maj. March's men entered
La Cat on the run. They saw the in
surgents scattering into the bushes
or over the plateau. A thousand
yards beyond the town, on the noun
tain side, the figures of 25 Filipinos,
dressed in white, with their leader on
a grey horse, were silhouetted against
the sunset. The Americans fired
volley and saw the officer drop from
his horse. His followers fed, carry
ing the body with them. The Amer
leans, on reaching the spot, caught
the horse, which was richly saddled..
Blood from badly wounded man
was on the animal and on the ground.
The saddlebags contained Aguinaldo's

ONLY ONE NEGATIVE VOTE.
House Passes the lAttleneld Anti-Truss
Bill Amending the Sherman Law
Labor Unions Are Exempt

Washington, June only one
vote was cast in the house Saturday
against the Littlefield antitrust bill
to amend the Sherman act of 1890 to
make it more effective in the prose-
cutiOn of trusts and combinations,
their agents, officers or attorneys.
Mr.. Ham, of Illinois (rep.), cast the
negative vote. The bill, according to
the statements of the republican
leaders, goes to the limit of the au-
thority of congress under the consti-
tuition. All the democratic minority
amendments except one were de-
feated. That was an amendment de-
claring that nothing in the act should
be construed to apply to trades
unions or labor organizations. The
bill amends the Sherman antitrust
law SO as to declare every contract
or combination, in the form of trust
or conspiracy in restraint of COM
mere among the states or with for
eign nations Illegal and every party
to such contract or combination
guilty of crime punishable by fine
of not less than $500 nor more than
$4,000 and by Imprisonment not less
than SIX months nor more than two
years. 1t provides that any person
injured by a violation of the provi-
sions of the law may recover three
fold damages.

The Public Schools of Illinois to Stem
Migration from Country Districts.

Chicago, June 4.-Elementary
courses in agriculture will be intro
duced into the public schools of Hi
nois with the beginning of the next
school year, to rank with other
studies now pursued. With the pri-
mary purpose of interesting country
boys in what probably will be their
work in future, the course will be
adapted especially to the country
schools, but they will be introduced
into town and city classes also in
an elementary way. The greatest
success for the new course is expected
in the country and smaller towns A
result OF, the introduction of agri-
culture as study is expected to be
that the tide of migration of eoun-
try boys from farms into cities will
be stemmed.
