GROUSE is A CLEVER BIRD.
It Evadcs the Hunter by Tricks That
Display Its Intelligence, Even
When Wounded.

The grouse has 100 tricks of defense
says Outing. 1t will sometimes lie
still until the hunter is within a. yard
Of it. then soar straight upward in his
front, towering like a woodcock; again,
it will rise 40 yards away, and the
sound of its wings is his only notice of
it's presence. 1t will cover upon a
branch under which he passes, and his
cap will not be more than a foot be-
low 1t as he goes, and though it has
seen him approaching. it will remain
quiescent in frightful fear until his
back is turned. 1t will flush then, and
when he has slowed himself hurriedly
around he will catch only a glimpse of
a brown, broad wing far away.
Wounded and falling in the open, it
will be found-if 1t is found at all
with the telltale speckles of it's breast
against the trunk of some brown tree
against which its feathers are indis-
tinguishable, and the black ruff about
the neck of the male will be laid
against the darkest spot of the bark.
Often 1t will double like a fox; often,
as man draws near, it will spring
noiselessly into some spruce and hide
until he passes, dropping then to the
ground and continuing It's feeding;
often, too, 1t will decline to take wing,
though unhurt, and will run fast for a
half mile-so fast that the most expert
woodsman will be unable to keep pace
with 1t. This 1t will do only on leafy
ground and never when snow would
hetray it's tracks.

OLD BOTTLE FROM SEA.

Captain John Ketcham, OF Amityville,
n. Y. while fishing off the beach at Long
Island. saw floating recently on the water
a square whiskey bottle. He caught it
and brought it ashore and on close in
spection was surprised TO see inside the
bottle complete picture of beach scene.

period of his life had learned the art Of

The fact alone shows what patience and
skill was necessary in order to place the

would take to complete such a work of

POPE'S IRON WILL
Is OVERCOME
FOR FIRST TIME DOCTORS SUc-
cEED IN GETTING HIM TO FOL-
LOW THEIR INSTRUCTIONS
AGAINST HIS OWN WISHES.


Rome, July 10-Once today the doctors
succeeded in overcoming Pope Leo's iron
will. He had decided to receive three car
dinals. This decision followed his con-
clusion yesterday. daily to receive one OF
each rank of cardinals, viz: Cardinal
bishops, cardinal deacons and cardinal
priests. The last named showed consid-
erable irritation at not seeing the pontiff
and at being compelled to get news Of his
condition through devious outside chan
nels. Therefore, following Cardinal Ram
polla's visit yesterday, the pope decided
to receive today one of each of these
classes of cardinals.
After this mornings operation he re-
uuired the doctors to leave the room, say
ing he wished to see the cardinals The
doctors gently but firmly protested, de-
claring that he was still weak.
But I shall not be fatigued. as ! feel
much better this morning." argued the
pope.
But the doctors insisted, urging that
1t was for his own good, and Pope Leo
finally yielded although expressing the
hope that he might see some Of the car
dinals later.
