Many of the Birds Are Falling Before
the Unerring Aim of Oregon
Sportsmen.
Short Items of Interest to Clackamas
County People
Thehuntiugseason for China pheasants
has been on during the past week and
the boom and bark ot guns in the valley
and on the hillsides have echoed from
morning until late at night each clay of
the open season. Hundreds of the beau
tiful ring necked birds have fallen before
the unering aim tf the Oregon City and
Ciackamas county sports and yet the
season has hardly begun. The open
Beason will cuntinue to the first day of
December.
It was the pleasure of the editor of
the Courier to go out on the first day
of the open Beason with "Red" William
tho barber, McFarland and Mr.Douthett.
We Btarted early and remained out all
day and took in a magnificent scope of
country, "Red" Williams furnished
the dogs and we each furnished our own
amunition., Ou route was from Oregon
City up the' Willamette to Canby and
from thence out to the farm of Judge
pharlie Waits, where we had been led to
he.lieve that dozens and -dozens ot the
rich plumaged birds weTTfeeding on the
weeds and grain Our fwpup the valle
was a pleasant i ne with no diversion ex
cepting one innocent covey of quail thai
crossed our road and set "Red" and his
dogs to whisiing. ' Keep that pup in
the wagon boys and don't let him out.
Ha will be pointing everything in the
valley if you give him a little rope I
really believe that is the best pup in the
valley. Watch him." Well we did
watch him. After passing Canby and
getting lost two or three times we ar
tived at Charlie Wailes and not finding
Mr. Waite ai home took possession ot
his barn and farm and lor two hours
hunted industriously and found three
China's two of which were saf ly put
away oy Mr. uoutliett. in the mean
time "Red's" dog was doing great
work. . After the crack of the first bud
he was industriously trampintr the
eels off the barber's huntihg boots. As
a back tracker he was immense. "Red"
stood this as lone as human nature
w uld bear it and then somethiug hap
pened, to the dog. Literally speaking
Mr. Williams wiped up two or three hill
ides with him. The poor nup thinking
e had enough for one setting made a
break for tall timber. We ventured to
suggest to Mr. Williams that he might
lose that fine pup it he were cot more
careful; buc he seemed indifferent to the
ot the pup expressing the nope that he
would run away so far that his eyes
wou'd never again behold him; But
the "pup came back,"
Having cleaned up Charlie Waite's
place we drove over to Barlow and
Red" acting as diplomat wesecuied he
permission of hunting over the six hun
dred acre farm of Cass Barlow. This is
one of the best farms in Clackamas
county and is usually alive with birds,
but not this year. We found none and
and after two hours hunt in the mid sun
adjourned to Barlow for dinner
Alter dinner we drove out to the farm
of Mr. Polk Gribble and Mr. S. M.Marks
and they were each kind enough to ex
tend to us a courteous greeting and a
permission to hunt over their large
farms, which we proceeded at once to
do. This is as fine a farming country
as there is in the state, and we did the
best we could to find the China birds
which we underst jod inhabited in these
fine fields and meadows. Four birds
only fell before guns of the crowds and
that magnificent $(S00 pup, bred in the
'oyai purpuiie was all the time tied to the
buggy and figuratively speakingwas howl-
ingms neau oner on, we don (know winch
At laBt we arrived again at the house
of Mr. Gribble and uutied the pup ; and

ful to ihe inanv good people we had met.
wereturjed to our homes in Oregon
City, with eightchinas. Notwithstand
ing that the kill was meager, we enjoyed
the day very much and had a rattling
good time all along the line. Hunting
over the best land in the world and
amongst the best people in the county,
is royal sport even if yon do not find
many birds. "Red" still insists that
his pup is a great pup, and he may be,
we don't know. It all depends upon
wnicn end you work Irom and 1 guess
we worked him from the wrong end.
"Red" went down to Silverton on
Saturday for a week',s hunt, but as he
forgot his gun we presume that he hunt
ed the fiist two days with a club and at
that be probably did better that we all
did on the opening day with a repeating
Winchester.

Jason F. Doud, of Woodburn, Takes
' Short Cut and Disappears.
A dispatch to the Oregon Daily Joun
nal from VVoodbnrn 6ays :
Word reached here last night that
fason F. Doud of Woodbnm wasloat in
the mountains at Rfd Rock mine, near
Crooked river, 30 niilas east of this city,
where he went huiiiirg last week with
Mayor Grant, o'fby, Marshal Amos
Beach and EJmer Minier. Marshall
Beach came back last night for a search
ing patty. Saturday morning Mayor
Coroy, Doud and Minier were hunting,
had killed two deer and started on their
return to camp, when Doud took a short
cut, stating that he would not walk the
longer way. That wiB the last seen of
him. ffVch was made by "Corby .
Beach aud" Minier all that day and nighl
and the next day, the party shooting ofl
guns and taking every means to locate
the missing man, but in vain. In re
sponse to Beach's call for help, a posse
of several citizeus left Woodburi this
morning for the scene. Mr Doud is an
ex-fhayor and prominent oit'zen ot this
city, about 70 years of age, a subject of
heart disease.
Frank Welch who recently returned '
from his claim on Ogle Creek, abbut-six
miles bey on Hid R)ck mine-,' repnts
that last week while he was out, there one
of the men went hunting. While still
several miles from home darkness set
tled down upon him. At fiist he did
not apprehend any trouble getting back
to camp but aftt-r he had struggled
through the brush lor Bometime he realiz
ed that he was hopele'sly lost. He
gan tiring off his gun at intervals trying
to alarm his friend9 hut, could get no
rearonse. He tumbled over precipices,
tore his clothes and cut and bruised hia
flesh. He stumbled and fell at one time
and caught with one hand to a vine.
Her he hung for sune time, fearing to
let go, thinking that he might be dashed
to death in the fathomless depths below.
He gazed into the darkness but co"ld
not tell how high the precipice on which
he ms standing was. Finally he was
forced to let go from sheer exhaustion.
He uttered a prayer, closed his eyes and
dropped just six itches. He was not
hurt by the fall but ,as almost dead
from fright when picked up by his com
panions who had heard the report of his
gun, a little later. He declared that he
lived months while hanging onto that
vine. His clothes were almost torn off
and he was ii a pretty bad condition
when picked up.
DOUD IS FOUND,
At noon Tuesday word reached Wood
burn that Doud had been fo ind and at
3 o'clock brought in, in an exhausted
condition. He tells the follow ,ng, story
of his exneriences while wandering in
the woods :
"I started toward camp but soon be
came bewildered. For hours I wandor
ed on in the awful storm, firing my gun
at Intervals. That night I built a tire
but being without fold became very
weak aud chilled.
On Sunday I endeavored again to roach
camp, but without Bueceps. The Btorra
increased in violence and wnen flight
came on I could not for my life light a
match on account of tremnlousness ind
extreme weakneis. VVithout shelter or
cover I wandered around all night and
wheu morning came made up my bed
of leaves and laid down to meet death
imnn the mountain side.
The sound ot mayor vjoroy s riue ami
hid cheerful voice aroused me, but I w.ts
absolutely helpless when found and lite
could not have been sustained many
hours. I had no food from Saturday
morning until Monday night, exposed to
the awful storm that raged with Increas
ing fury around me."
