NESTING WOOD DUCKS.

The COurtship Period Is Followed
by a Very Prosaic Married Life. s
When a pair of wood ducks fnd
water and a hollow tree TO suit, little
time is lost in preparing the nest. This
task and the covering of the eggs are
performed by the female, for, to the
best of my knowledge, the male does
little more than sit around on handy
limbs and look pretty. During the
period of nest building and while the
duck is laying he is the beau ideal of a
handsome and loving cavalier, eve at
tentive and seemingly most anxious as
to her whereabouts should she happen
to get out of his sight. But with the
waning of the honeymoon he seems to
feel rather bored with the whole bust
ness, and gradually he gets clubby-i.
e., wanders from his own fireside and
hunts up another drake or two to help
him loaf away the summer. The busy
little duck keeps her own counsel and
"sits tight on the dozen OF more highly
polished ivorylike eggs crowded to-
gether in a bed Of soft decayed wood
and down from her breast.
Quite frequently the nest is at the
bottom of a hollow several feet deep,
and ne doubt the strong, hooked claws
of the wood duck are a special pro
vision for the oft repeated climbing out
of the hollow.-Edwyn Sandys in Out.

Of DISTRICT COURI.
District Court Opens in the City To-
day, and Trial Of Patrick Hines
Concluded.
May Case Will Probably be Taken
up Monday-shibley Case Being
Tried Today. ~.

The November term of the district
court opened at the court house this
morning with Judge Winchester pre-
siding. The roll of jurors was called,
and the first criminal case moved by
States Attorney ALLEN was that against
Patrick Hines, charged with an escape
from the state penitentiary. Hines
told the court he wanted a grand jury
to investigate his case, but was in
formed that that was impossible at the
present term. The he thought he
should be tried in the supreme court,
and finally pleaded not guilty to the
charge. He said he did not want a
lawyer and defended his own case.
A jury was impaneled and the trial
of the case proceeded with. Hines
cruss-examined the witnesses for the
state, who were Warden Boucher OF
the penitentiary, former Deputy War
den Kaufman. and Guards Stewart
and Couch. Hines defense for his
escape was to the effect that he was
off the penitentiary grounds at the time
of the attempt. and, i'm his opinion,
out of the Jurisdiction of the peniten-
tiary authorities.
This afternoon the trial of the Hines
CASE was concluded and given to the
jury. Hines made a rather ingenious
plea to the jury, claiming that he had
been onc punished for his attempted
escape by being deprived of his good
time, that he was off the prison
grounds at the time, and in other ways
pleading for a verdict favorable to him.
After the conclusion of this case, a
jury was ordered impanaled in the
case of the State VS.. Willard Shibley,
who is charged with selling intaxicat-
ing lisuor contrary to law. The inn
paneling of the jury was in progress at
press time.
1t is the present intention of the at
torneys to take up the May murder
case next Monday. Frank M. Nye OF

Two important decisions were filed
in the supreme court today, one refus-
ing an application to file petitions in
a proposed quo warranto case to de-
termine the constitutionality of the old
county boundary law of 1891, n the
other affecting the Woods tax deed
law. The latter decision affirms the
legality of the tax deeds issued, as
held by the lower court In the
boundary case, the court denies the
application for the eason that the ills
trict courts are open to the petitioners
and they have not exhausted their re-
sources there. The decision puts a
temporary check upon actions to up
set the old boundary law.
