MIGRATIONS
BY THE BIRDS
Long Flights Sometimes
Taken by Non -Migra-
tory Species.
Myriads of Owls Appeared
in British Columbia in
1897.

Birds sometimes make extensive
migrations, even II they are of a
species not common migratory, SAYS
the Detroit Free Press. Prairie
chickens once flew northward from
Illinois prairies and passed over the
city of Detroit, Mich, in great fiocks,
thousands of them lighting in the
city limits before crossing the river
to Canada.
Proceeding in this strange flight,
thousands of them were drowned in
Lake Superior. but so many of them
sustained the long flight that they
stocked districts north of the lake
and made a prairie chicken hunting
ground where there never had been.
such game before.
No satisfactory explanation of that
migration, Unprecedented so far asl
known, was ever made, but the gen.
eral opinion among sportsmen ac-
quainted with conditions there is that
it was forced by the persistent, excess
sive and indlscriminate raids of the
market hunters on those birds.
AN equally strange migration Of
wild turkeys once occurred in Mich
igan. Those big game birds were
plentiful in the Michigan woods and
were being hunted mercilessly by or
ganzed parties In the employ of deal
ers in Chicago and other cities. They
disappeared from their haunts as sud-
denly and completely as If they had
never been there But they could not
hide their exodus their numbers were
so great. 1t is chronicled that the mi
grating host was a quarter of mile
wide and was several hours in pass
ing They journeyed westward an
In the course of time wild turkeys
were reported as more than plentiful

where they had rarely been seen be-
fore
The mysterious disappearance OF tho
passenger pigeon, of which there were
millions in this country one day and
not one to be seen anywhere the next,
had not as fortunate a sequel as the
Michigan wild turkeys, for no word
has ever been heard as to where the
wild pigeons went.
An unaccountable appearance OF
birds in large numbers and of a kind
not common to the region was that
of the myrads of owls that suddenly

OF these ralding owls in that north
western area 500 were killed on Van

toria, by sportsmen who rose in arms
against them. More than 1,500 owls
were killed in a few weeks where per-
haps not fifty of any kind had ever
been seen before 1t was supposed that
intense cold weather had driven the
destructive birds from their homes

How Dogs We're Used.

II was q case of DO tell us, dcah
chap? What dawgs?" When Mr.
Rainey landed at Mombassa and told
the resident Engllshman OF his plans.
and so the American sportsman is
particularly gratihed at the way his
pack behaved in action. Teaching
them to follow the lions scent was
the hard job, as any one who has vis-
tied the lion cages at the Zoo can
understand. once they became used
though. it grew on them like an ac-
quired taste. In Africa lions are re-
garded as vermin anu their tendency
to eat q man up occasionally doesn't
add to the native love for them. After
Mr.. Ralney showed what his dogs
could do in the way Of rounding up a
lion for shooting the Government gave
him permission TO so into the Athi
River section reserve where the new
railroad is being built. Any one who
can kill lions and leave the natives TO
work on the railroads in peace is well
coined by the Government.
Mr.. Rainey shot some fifty lions in
this section Of the country. If IL
hadn't been for his dogs, which
chased them into sight he says he
does not think that he would have
had such extraordinary luck

OPENING ADVANCE IN COTTON FAL[S OFF
While Close Is Steady It Is 2 to } Points Net
 Lower

New York, December An opening advance was followed by sharp break in the cotton market during to- days trading and while the final tone was steady last prices were 3 to II points net lower. The market opened firm at an advance of II to Is points on covering, trade buying and scatter ing bull support which was doubtless encourage by relative firm cables, re- ports of smaller offerings of actual in Liverpool, bullish overnight spot advices from the south and continued reports of an active dry goods trade.
 Manchester cables said that business was favorably affected by the advance exports of goods were complaining of delayed deliveries, but there was a good deal of realizing around the open ing figures and the market soon turned easier under this pressure and a re- newal of local selling accompanied by predictions of further sharp reaction before the publication of the govern ments crop reports
 Reports from Memphis that the fig ures of the National Ginners associa- ton showed over 11,90o.000 bales ginned to December 1 seemed to add to the volume of the selling movement during the middle of the day and prices broke to net loss of from to IA points. Weakness in the stock mark ct was supposed to be partly responsible for the heavy Wall street selling and there was a good deal of scatterin g liquidation
 Just before the close leading spot interests entered the market as large buyers, checking the decline and caus- ing a final rally of or points. There was one private report in from Augusta claiming that spots were selling below official quotations but there were num- erous reports from other sections of the south, indicating very firm mar ket and private cables attributed the relatively steady showing there to smaller offerings of actual and rumors that southern shippers were finding 1t very hard to secure cotton for their December commitments.

POULTRY AND EGGS
 REACH HIGH MARK Is Believed Prices in Future Will Go Little Higher and !! May Decline

The business on Morris avenue vester- day continued fair with few fluctuations in prices and ample receipts.
 On the dry salt meat market a slight change upward was noted in quotations without affecting the general tone of the market which enjoyed 8 steady trade all day. The hay and grain market with out any change in current prices, con tinues a brisk business.
 With poultry and eggs prices are high for this time of the year. but apparently have reached the high mark as no ad- vances have been noted for some time and indications point to reductions in the near future. The business of the poultry and egg dealers is showing a healthy in- crease in volume as the holidays approach The produce dealers are all stocked up with the various varieties of fruits and vegetables for the anticipated Christmas rush, which is already in evidence. Prices on produce and fruits have shown no appreciable change in the last two weeks Creamery products are steadily advanc- ing as the Elgin butter board continues to note advances in it's weekly reports. The fish dealers are enjoying a better demand at present that for some time and the supply in all kinds of fish is adequate Yesterdays wholesale quotations follow:

Latest trading left corn vary ing from lsc down to ssc advance, and oats from lsc off to a gain of fraction. Pro- visions wound up unchanged to 5c higher
 Stocks accumulation of wheat in all quarters since the close of navigation at tracted cor orsderable notice among specu- lators who inclined to the bear side. Com pared with a year ago northwest arrivals were practically double. and southwest nearly treble. The Argentine news, which acted as a further discouragement to tue bulls, was that cutting was making rapid progress owing to exceptionally favorable weather. War sdvices from the Balkans, although Lot decidedly bullish operated nevertheless to keep would be sellers ti n.orous.
 Assertions that a large amount of ex- port trade by way of the Gulf had been contracted for at Kansas City led to some reaction from the bottom prices of the day, but tho influence gradually wore away May wheat duCtuated between sOasc and sos4c, with last sales isc net down at e01ae.
