Hawk and Partridge.

In "Reminiscences of a Falconer"
Major Fisher describes the tactics Of a
partridge when pursued by a tame
falcon.
The falcon was descending upon the
partridge when the partridge stopped
short and fell to the ground as if dead
He seemed TO be lost in the short stub
bic Of the field. He was far too know
ing to trust himself again on the wing,
and the hawk had no alternative but
to take him on the ground, which he
speedily attempted to do
But on the ground the partridge was
far more agile than he. running this
way and that with great speed. The
hawk would jump awkwardly up and
dart after the scudding partridge, who
just at the right moment jumped from
the ground and over his back, descend
ed on the other side and commenced
running harder than before.
Time after time this was done. At
every attempt the partridge met the
hawk with outstretched neck and rails
ed hackles, in the attitude Of fighting
bantam cock, jumping up to avoid be-
ing clutched whenever the hawk struck
at him. In fact, his whole action was
that Of a plucky little game bantam.
This went on for some time, until, as
l regret to say, | ended the unequal
strife by putting the partridge once
more fairly on the wing, when, of
course, the hawk readily overlook and
captured it, not overmuch TO his credit
and still less to mine.

A Murderous AssauIter,

Pueblo, Col, Oct. This city is In
great excitement over series of muir.
derous assaults on women and girls.
From what can be learned, they seem
to have been committed by the same
person, a negro or very dark white
man with his face blackened. Satur-
day night Mrs. James p. Henderson
was a victim, being half killed with a
club while alone at her home. Later
a girl in a family named Hamilton
was terribly choked by a man who
had forced his way in. Mrs. Hickey
who was struck down while riding a
bike a few nights since, is still at the
point of death with a fractured skull
ana can give no clear account of what
occurred. Several other women have
peen assaulted recently.

ADHERE TOMONROE DOCTRINE
If England Would Lead Off Other
Powers Would Follow.
OPPOSITION PRESS MOUNTING

London, Nov. 25.-The most impor-
tant position of the Spectator is occu-
pied by discussion of proposal that
Great Britain should give its formal
adherence to the Monroe doctrine.
The Spectator will say: IF America
will define the Monroe doctrine, why
should we not pledge ourselves not to
infringe upon it? When we had ac-
knowledged this doctrine, America
| might propose it to the rest of the
the powers could hardly refuse. If
they adhered, their adherence would
be of great use, not to America, but to
the cause of peace, for it would elimi-
nate great many of the notable causes
of war. If the Monroe doctrine be-
came part of the public law of the civ
ilized world, the risk of war breaking
out with regard to European interior
ence in Brazil or Spanish America, now
always possibility, would then pass
away.
Possibly no other power but
Great Britain would at first be willing
to recognize the Monroe doctrine as
binding. Even so, it would be worth
our while to pledge ourselves to respect
it, for we never mean to attack that
doctrine, and, sooner or later, our
example will probably be followed by
other powers
The Spectator will also approve the
canal treaty, and in another article on
Secretary Hays foreign policy the
paper will say:
mo country in the world can show
two greater or worthier statesmen than
President Roosevelt and Secretary
Hay"
The Saturday Review says. "We are
putting the future canal unreservedly
into the hands of the United States of
the future-which will develop in a
startling manner the imperialistic ex-
travagances of -day-without con-
sulting in the smallest degree the
interests of the rest of the world, which
are intimately bound up with our own
in this matter.
The Saturday Review affirms that
Lord Lansdowne has ''cynically re-
treated from the position as trustee for
the civilized world which we assumed
even under the Hay-Pauncefote con-
vention and thrown the whole subject
| of contention into the hands of un-
! ScrupulOuS opponents to deal with as
they think fit"

STOPPING A LAND GRAFT.
Attempt to Gobbls up State School
Lands.

Lands.
Topeka, Nov. 21.-Assistant Attorney
General James Clayton has rendered
an opinion, which, if followed by the
commissioners of Western Kansas
counties, will stop the practice of gob-
Cling up school lands. A large per
cent of these lands were leased last
year for a period of five years. Now
the lessees are surrendering their leases
and purchasing the land under the
settlers act. They are doing this be-
cause the price of land is advancing.
The legislature last winter passed a
law reducing the minimum price of
school lands to S1.25 an acre. Through
connivance of the appraisers people are
buying up the land at that figure.
Some of it is worth four times that
amount, but the appraisers enter into
a scheme and appraise it at S1.25 and
it is taken at that price. Added to this
is the scheme of the lessees to surren-
der their leases and then take the land
under the settlers act at SIPS an acre.
Mr.. Clayton ruled that the lessees
could not surrender their leases; that
they would have to carry them out to
the very letter: furthermore, that a
lessee could not claim settlement by
reason of residing on leased lands.
The assistant attorney general also
held that all leased land sold must be
sold subject to the lease.
