WELL CONTRACT
ACCEPTED.

Last Thursday evening the Board
of Trustees met in special session at
the Office of the clerk and took the
initial steps towards installing the
system of waterworks for which
bonds were voted on the 18th Of this
month. They decided to accept the
proposition made by j. b. Jensen, of
Woonsocket, for the drilling OF well
and he has been notified of the ac-
ceptance, and as soon as the city at
torney, A. G.. Granger, returns from
Fort Pierre the contract will he drawn
up and signed.
The machine that will do the work
IS now at Vivian and will be shipped
here at an early date and active work
of drilling the we'll will commence
Immediately.
The proposition made by Mr.. Jen-
sen and accepted by the Trustees is
| for three inch well not to exceed
six hundred feet in depth, and in case
plentiful supply of water is obtain
ed it is TO cost s1.s5 foot, with the
casing and pump complete to the top
of the ground, for the actual number
of feet drill. If sufficient supply of
water is not obtained the drilling is
to cost the town but thirty-fiye cents
a foot.
Numerous inquiries are being re.
ceived by the town clerk from capi-
talist who desire to purchase the
bonds to be issued by the town and
they will undoubtedly be disposed of
before long at very advantageous
| figures.

THE CHINESE
PHEASANTS.

In the introduction OF the Chinese
Ring Neck Pheasant into this country
Oregon is the pioneer state. Wash
ington. Idaho and California have fol-
lowed her example and Kansas, Illi-
nOis, Colorado and Minnesota are
working toward restocking with the
pheasants.
The pure Chinese Pheasant is the
game bird par excellence. Taken all
in all it is a serious question whether
or not he has any superior as an all
around game bird. 1t is utter folly to
hunt them without a dog. Their
ability to conceal themselves, even in
the scantiest cover, is wonderful.
Without dog it is not uncommon to
pass within ten feet of one hidden in
the grass without his rising. When
running in cover they move very
swiftly with the body close to the
ground and possess the ability to pass
through grass, short or tall, without
disturbing the surface. When over
taken by the dog they lie well, and
this fact combined with the further
fact that they are always found in
the open makes pheasant shooting
tho cleanest bird shooting in the
world.
Possessed of remarkable vitality
they do not succumb to slight gun
wounds. Being clean limbed, with
powerful thighs, they are exception
ally fleet on foot, and if winged only
the pheasant falls running, and here
the dog is put to his severest test.
Very few dogs can track crippled
chinaman their first season, but an
experienced setter or pointer learns
to recognize the wounded birds and
endeavors to be as near him as possi-
bic when he touches the ground.
Besides his Gameness and delicate
flesh he is unQuestionably one of the
most ornamental of the game birds.
He is native of the northern part OF
China, being found as far north as

the Amour and as far south as shanghi.

the Amour and as far south as Shanghi.
The question is often asked if the
Chinese pheasant can stand the heat
and cold. A reference to the map
of China will answer this question.
The pheasant has succeeded over the
larger part of Europe, even as far
north as Sweden. On this continent
it does we'll in Canada and Nova SEQ
tia, but nowhere has it's introduction
been attended with such prolific re-
suits as in the Willamette Valley in
the state of Oregon. Itwas stated by
an eminent authority on pheasants
that in 1893 there were more Chinese
pheasants IN Oregon than in the

Shanghi and it was from there that
he sent the birds to Oregon.
The rapidity with which the birds
increased in this state is made more
marvellous when it is remembered
that they were not introduced until
1882 and then only fifty birds We're
liberated. They were protected abso-
lutely for seven years, and thereafter
an open season of six weeks was pro-
vided, which has been enlarged to
two months. If the laws were observ-
ed the number Of pheasantsin Oregon
would continue to increase with each
year. The rapidity of their increase
is doubtless due TO the large egg pro-

whole Chinese empire. Credence is
lent this statement when it is remem-
bered that it is reliably estimated
that $4,000 were killed in one county
in this state alone, and the same year
1900 dozen were shipped to the San
Francisco market.
There could be no better testimony
of the adaptability Of the Chinese
pheasant as a bird for restocking a
state with game than this last state
ment which comes from no less auth
ority than Judge Denny, the man who
introduced the pheasant into Oregon.

1t is held by those most familiar
with the bird that under ordinary
conditions the hen will raise two
broods and in favorable seasons che
will care for three broods, in which
duties she IS assisted by the cock.
Thus in the field she will lay from fis-
teen to forty eggs in a season.
