PARTRIDGEs IN CAPTIVITY.
success of an Experiment Made NJ
Massachusetts Hatchery.

---- A-e AesAslirt NOtlrler.
The State game hatchery at wilbraham
Is making an experiment in partridge
propagation that will be watched with
interest by sportsmen all over the State.
and If 1t proves successful it will demon,
srate something that has long been
hoped for but never realized.
The State hatchery has proved that
pheasants can be raised and bred in can
tivlty. but the partridge, with its shy
and timid ways, has been an uncertain
problem all these years. At last the State
hatchery has succeeded in Matching four
teen partidges. all Of which are living
and are doing finely and bid fair to reach
maturity in captivity.
The method under which xhe State he.
came possessed Of these birds has a local
havor. for they were Matched from Great
Darlington eggs. Game Warden SarRood
on one of his hikes over Beartown Moun-
tain into Great Darlington territory came
Unexpectedly upon a partridge's nest in
which there were fourteen eggs upon
which the mother bird had sat for ten
days or so. Sargood gathered up the
eggs, wrapped each one in cotton bat.
ting and some other protection and car.
ried them to the State hatchery.
The eggs had been six hours away from,
the nest when he reached the hatchery.
but fortunately bantam hen had been
setting on clutch of pheasant's eggs
just about ten days, so they transferred
this bantam to the partridge eggs and
she Matched every one of them. Now
the hatchery people will do their best to
so domesticate these young partridges
that when they reach maturity and ar
rive At the laying stage their eggs may
be hatched in captivity and the flock at
the hatchery thus materially increased

handled.
This means the solving of a problem
that has long been considered, but which

The reason Vinol is so successful

THE STRANGE LIFE STORY
 OF DAVID '. LEONARD

daughter ] | years of age.
 David neyer attended but two months of school In his life. and was unable to read or write until after he was married and the fath- eT of two children. In May. 1891, at Oak Grove Church. in Marion County, Tenn, he was ordained a. a minister Of the Primitive Baptist 1 Church, the presbytery by whom he was ordained beeing composed Of Eids. G. P Moffett. D. T. Nowhn and Peter Anderson He had preach ed for two or three years before be- 1 Ing ordained to the ministry He had previously united with the Missionary Baptist Church, but aft CT hearing the doctrines of the Primitive Baptists expounded by an iuneraut preacher he became con yineed that the doctrines of that church were more In line with his belief and he united with them. He has since followed farming, preach ing whenver opportunity offered.
 About two years ago Ed J. C. Sikes, a Primitive Baptist preacher of GreenyilIe, Texas, was preaching through Alabama and stopped at Efkmont, hear where Hf Leonard lives. To httn Mir Leonard related the history ef his life. so far as known, the Joftnsons, by whom he wa5 reared. having told 1t to him i and always taught him that he was hot their oqgn child Ed. Slkes de- termined to find Leonard s relatives If possible. and while on visit to Fort Smith last August related the story to newspaper reporter of that city The story 8as read by J. C. Malone of Waldron. who re- lated it to Frank Bates. step-son of Thomas leonard, brother of the subject of this sketch. who died some yeafs aso at hopprel. Texas mf Malone wrote 10 Mr.Leonard, giving him tAe names Of his broth CTS and sisters Mr Leonard at once wrote so=his sister In Spring dale. Mrs. Elizabeth Johnson, wife of J. C. Johnson, and when he re- ceiyed her reply on September 13, last, he for the first time knew that his name was Leonard.
 During all the years he had gone under the name of Wm. Johnson. given him by his foster parents It was under this name he was mar ried and that ais children were married This will not. 1t Is said, affect the legality of his marriage or the marriage of his children, or any Of his business transactions Just what his future course will be with reference to his name, Mr. Leonard has not fully decided. So long as lie lives at his present home in Alabama he will continue 10 use the name by which he Is best known but should lie leave there and seek home in a new location he will assume his rightful name.
 MT. Leonard says that OH account of his limited means, and his in- ability to read and write he had made little effort to ascertain his parentage, although his unusual history was we'll known by the peo- pie among whom he lived. His rel attyes have made numerous efforts to locate him if living. and what became of him after the boat sank that day. but without result.
