PARTRIDGEs IN CAPTIVITY.
Success of Professor Hodges Expert
ments In Massachusetts.

Dr. Clifton L. Hodge, professor of BIZ
ology at Clark university in Worces,
ter, Mass, is having remarkable sue
cess in his efforts toward domesticat-
ing the ruffed grouse or partridge, says
the Boston Transcript. The latest
achievement is the raising of a second
generation of the birds while they are
in captivity, five strong, healthy birds
having been Matched two weeks ago
by the mother partridge.
More could scarcely be desired than
to have pair mate and produce their
young in the back yard of city home
So far as is known the birds have
acted exactly the same as their broth
ers In the woods even to the curious
act of drumming. They are just as
large as those in the woods, and are
lively and contented. One of the old
male birds seems to be especially de
lighted when Dr. Hodge enters the in
closure in which they are kept and
plays with the bird as one would with
his pet cat In no other case, so far
as Is known has this species been any
where near so perfectly domesticated.
Or. Hodge began these experiments
in the spring Of 1903, when he obtained
some partridge eggs from the woods
and Matched them out under bantam
hen. At the time he was laughed at
For trying it, but after the chicks were
Matched out and it was seen that they
were being raised a member of the
Massachusetts Fish and Game Protec-
tive association, who resides in Worces-
ter, Mass. reported the affair to a
meeting of the directors, which then
voted 5000 to be given to DR.. Hodge
In aid of his experiments
He is using it in charging his in
closures with Il view to aiding such
work as the association is doing, espe-
ciaIly by eventually setting the birds
free in the covers Of the state of Mas
sachusetts, and perhaps in our city
parks. DR.. Hodges purpose in the eX-
periments. so far as his own work is
concerned, is more especially to study
scientifically the biological relations of
the species-its foods, habits and in
stincts and the possibilities of its do
meStication.

HOW is YOUR CONSCIENCE ?

That conscience does make towards
is admitted. but it is no less true that
it sometime turns rogues into honest
men. Many great public corpora
tiOns nowadays have conscience
funds" Probably it is needless but
we might remark that very little is
ever paid out from such funds. One
of tie most recent illustrations of the
working of conscience. is afforded by
a former passenger who RENTED $35
to the Sante Fe Railroad because, in
years long past, he had beaten the
Company out of transportation from
Needles to Albuquerque. He explain
ed that he had since become a Chris
tian, and the memory of that stolen
ride ranked. In paying for his ride,
the proselyte did not even ask a re-
bate of Paul MorrOn's old road.

BOYS VOICE WON JOHN d.
How the Great Standard Oil Magnate
Was Captured by Song.

John D. Rockefeller has rescued
Harry Evans, II years old, from a
beer garden and will educate him and
support his widowed mother. The lad
had been singing in a garden to get
money to support himself and his
mother. He has fine voice and at
tracted much attention.
Young Evans received an invitation
to sing last Sunday before the Sunday
school of the Euclid Avenue Baptist
church, of which Mr.. Rockefeller is
superintendent Responding to the in
vitation Harry mounted the platform
and sang an old hymn. 1t may have
been favorite hymn of Mr.. Rookie
Teller. At any rate he bowed his head
while the boy was singing: what a
Friend We Have in Jesus"
After the exercises were over Mr.
Rockefeller inquired for the lad with
the silver voice and met him and his
mother. After hearing their story he
said:
Cancel the boys contracts madam.
Do not let him sing in amusement
houses again. Harry must be educat-
ed. His voice must be trained for
better service. 1t shall be, and l shall
pay all the bills and support you until
Harry's education is complete.
Mother and son wept for Joy and ac-
copied Mr.. ROckefeller's proposition.

AN EDUCATIONAL MOVE.
PreceptOriaI System to Make Col
Ieges Interesting.

reyes interesting.
The object of the preceptorial sys-
tenn adopted at Princeton university is
to prevent the disintegration of the
university, its disintegration in that
essential feature of all vital teaching,
the intimate acquaintance and contact
of pupil and teacher, says Woodrow
Wilson, president of Princeton univer-
sity, in Harper's Weekly. Mere in
crease Of numbers separates them. AS
a university grows in numbers profess
ors and students draw apart. have
hardly u speaking acquaintance with
one another
The large university, teeming with
hundreds of growing youngsters, ought
not to forego this fruitful process of
comradeship if it can possibly get the
advantage of it by any feasible ar
rangement.
1t Is Princeton's plan, with this OBJ
ject in view, to add at once to her
teaching force, to add fifty "precept-
ors," as she will call them for want of
q better name, whose special duty it
shall be to deal with their pupils out
side of the classroom. The preceptors
are to be members of the faculty, not
distinguishable from the rest In rank
and privilege, and the present mem
bers Of the faculty are to undertake
preceptorial work In order that the
new and closer contact may be
brought about all along the line but
for the new men the preceptorial work
will be the chief function. 1t will be
their duty to take the students In the
several departments, either singly or
in groups, and by every serviceable
method give them counsel, guidance
and stimulation in their work.
Dull men and very bright and am
bilious men they will probably have to
take singly. Groups will have to be
made up by careful classification, com
bining men of like training, acquire
ments and aptitudeS. But the object
will be always the same-nOt to hear
"recitations" on fixed text books, but
to discuss, to sift, to test, the reading
done by the men in their several
courses, so that the men may feel that
the preceptors are in some sense their
fellow students and friendly guides in
their outside reading, the reading by
which lectures are to be supplemented
and the more formal discussion of the
classroom broadened and made part of
an Independent scheme of study.
