Arrived From England.

Last Monday two coops CON.
taining twelve pairs of English
partridges arrivrd in Albany,
from England. At different
times mention has been made in
the GAZETTE regarding she
movements on foot for, introduc-
ing these delightful little game
birds into this state. The birds
have been liberated on the farms
of the Line brothers, near Knox
Bate, Linn county. Il is the
desire of all true sportsmen that
these partridges be afforded the
utmost protection, both in and
out of season. A writer in the
Oregoaian, who has hunted these
birds in their native land, gives
the following account of them
and their habits:
They are a fine game bird,
and lie well for dog. They do
not run from a dogs point, but
will get up at times within foot
of the dogs nose. But with a
broken wing they are swift on
foot. Their habits are like those
of the Bob White quail. A
whole covey roosts in a bunch in
the middle of a stubble after the
grain is cut, or in a pasture
where there is plenty of dead
grass for cover. They nest in
dead grass, mold fence rows, and
are very close sitters. They do
not visit timber except the outer
edge of it. They like a wide
range Of cultivated fields, and
travel from fence rows, never 60
ing far away from the place they
were hatched. If flushed they
will fly across the field to. the
next fence Ia the Shooting
season, when a covey is started,
they will break and alight in
separate places and stay just
where they drop, so they give no
scent to trail them, and il re-
quires a fine nose to catch the
scent when within three feet of
the bird.

Kidnapped His Chickens.

While hunting below town
this week, Sheriff Burnett ran
upon a flock of chickens at an
isolated spot in the woods, A
hay rack and some outbuildiugs
hanging upon the brush nearby
aroused the suspicion that this
property and fowls had been pur-
loined by the recent flood from
some farmer up the creek. This
belief was strengthened when
after crossing a hundred yards of
water to>a little island, an old
dominick hen welcomed him
with a cheerful cack1e. On the
road home, the sheriff met Mr..
st. German, whose anxious
countenance :betokened bereaye-
ment. Mr.. Burnett rightly
surtnised that his loss was a
dozen hens and a llayrack. Mr..
St. German stated that his chick
ems were roosting on the rack
when the food came and carried
them away. The sheriff directed
him to the spot in the woods
some two miles distant, and ii is
probable that by this writing the
wanderers are again in the fold.

EARLY INCIDENTS RECALLED.

Robert Glaze, Well Known Here, siay.
His Partner in San Francisco.
The killing of William Ire.
wella by Robert E. Glaze in San
Francisco, recently, has recalled
incidents which happened in
this and Polk county IS or 80
years ago in which Glaze and
his brother, Til, were prominent
actors. Together with these
brothers, Sheriff Burnett attend
ed school at Dallas in the early
seventies. Some years later
Til Glaze entered. the saloon
business at Dallas. One night a
free-for.all shooting and cutting
scrape was INDUCED in at his
place of business and when the
smoke cleared away, Johnny
Whitley, one of the participants
was lying cold in death, the vic
tim of a gunshot wound. While it
was believed that Glaze or his
partner had committed the deed,
it was meyer proved on either of
them. The father of of><Whitley
swore that he would kill Glaze,
and he came to Dallas one day
for that purpose. Til anticipated
him, however, and as a result of
the dual between them the fun.
eral of the elder Whitley was
held few days after. Til Glaze
finally opened saloon in Prime
vile, where he was killed four
Or FIVE years ago in a shooting
scrape.
Young Whitley was known as
a desperate character. While
a band of cattle on the
road near the place where J. O..
Wilson now resides, he was met
by James Martyr, who now lives
at Irish Bend. Mr.. Martyr and
his wife and first babe, were in
buggy behind !span of fiery
horses. The animals became
frightened and started to run
through Whitley>s band of cat
lie. Whitley rode up alongside
of the buggy aad asked Mr.. Mar
.yn what he meant by trying TO
stampede his cattle. While Mr..
Martyn had his hands full in at
to control his team, he
:ried to explain to Whitley, but
he latter began siashing Mr..
Martyn over the face with his
.attle whip. This so enraged
Uncle Jimmy that he asked for a
yun at the first farm house in
ending to avenge himself, but
ortunately was unable to secure
me.
Robert Glaze was tor some
'ears a clerk in the Baldwin
Hotel in San Francisco, till it
burned down, when he went to
honolulu, where he ran a hotel.
About 10 months ago he and
Erewe1la took possession of the
Windsor Hotel on Fifth and
Market streets and appeared to
'e friendly. According to the
tory of an employe, who TN
Known to Glaze was an eyewit-
less of the murder, Glaze laid in
wait for Trewel1a in ehe kitchen
# the hotel, and as he ap-
,roaohed riddled him with bull
ets.. Glaze makes the excuse
hat he shot in self-defense, as
Trewella made a motion as if to
hoot him, and also says that
rrewe1la had mistreated G1aze',s
wife. But from the story pub
ished in the San Francisco
,apers it looks like a deliberate
nd inexcusab1e murder.

AMERICAN COAL
Is Gaining a Footho!d in France as Well as
Other Products.

London. Aug. THE British consul
lar report regarding trade at Marseil-
les issued. Monday morning. declares;
the most vital recent development from
a British view point is the determined
attempt of the United States to obtain
a monopoly of the coal imports at that
port.
The report further says it is still too
carly to say how much of the general
activity in Marscilles in the future will
he due to American enterprise AMI en-
ergy: but it is certain that Il large
share of the future trade and CONNER
cial activity both at Marseilles ana in
the south of France generally Will be
absorbed by the United States and a
considerable portion of it ut the OK
pense of the United Kingdom unless
British traders wake up to the dan
ger and fight it by combination.
A great coal combine is contemplate
ed. American coal will surely share
the market but will not be able to en-
tirely Dust British coal. 1t will simply
be a question of freights and quality,
both of which are against the United
States but the proposed combine looks
dangerous.

We would emphasize our endorse

our authority in Cuba. The fact that
