The field day exercise . today at ,tha Van couver barracks u one of the most enthusiastic and well attended of any People were present irom ait voo our roundlng country and the attendance numbered 2.000 persons. Major Baker and other officers tf the Sd Infantry, as well as Captain "Welch and his officers, battery A, O. ,N. , G were present as guests of the officers of the post and were given a lunch at the post club by the officers of the post v y, , When the hour arrived : for the monthly contest In the Held athletics there was great excitement among the participants, and much contention as to whether the Infantry was going to al low the artillery to once more com pletely snow them under. Ever since the bad defeat of last month the Infantry has been counting on whipping the artillery at this contest. Many of ;the members summoned all their friends from afar off to assemble on the grounds and watch them defeat the artillery; but, alas, the friends were greatly surprised to sea the infantry have no show except In the wall scaling, the one event In which the artillerymen were not" allowed to ' compete. From start , to finish It was easy to see by casual observer which of the two arnu of the service was going to win the day, and the artillery waa not only no; satisfied with having one battery at the top, but strenuously insisted on secur ing both first and second places. The result was artillery, first;' infantry, last. . ,' ;', '. " - , Battery Was Vint. In the total number of points in to day's contest the 8th battery ame out first, the 26th battery seconu, andF company, 19th Infantry, third. The other companies . followed In succes sion.' V :' ';-"- Company F, although given third place In the contest, - the total number of points, made by' It was not equal to one-half of the number of points made by the 26th battery, which atood second in the list, so, it is said, that the grand total of points the artillery scored about five-sixths out of the total. The artillery has already beat the In fantry in their own tactics : time and 'time again, and the artillery boys now claim that, in order to secure the num ber of points for the Infantry, namely, the one-sixth of the total referred to above, the artillery was not allowed to compete In the wall-scaling. It was ' in this competition that company F gained 10 points, and theso 10 points, it is' said, is all . that company F made during the entire field day exercises. y ' .

In the section -contest a pole in one of the sections of the 26th battery was broken accidentally 'and this accident threw that, particular section out of the race. All the three sections remaining, two from the 8th and one from the 26th battery, the judge decided the contest a tie between pie three sections. . The best time made was 9:23. The time made by the section of the 26th battery which was thrown out on account of the acci dent was 7:J9 2-8. ' The wall scaling event Schedule, 1st, company F, 19th Infantry; time, 2:20 I-S; 2d, company H, 19th infantry; time, 2:3S. In this the artillery was not al lowed to compete.

" The mounted wrestling event resulted as follows: The honors of the ' contest were awarded to the 2th battery. In this event there was a misunder standing among the judges, they believ ing that it was one team against an other Instead of one man against an other.' After the. contest was over there was a private, bout fought between Private Christian of the 8th battery and Private Jones of the 26th. This con test lasted between four and five minutes and was close and evenly fought, but finally won by Christian. The three-legged race was won ' by company A, 19th Infantry; 2d. 8th bat tery; 2d, company H, 19th infantry, and 4th. 28th batterj.

"It is a wonder to us that more wealthy American sportsmen owning shooting preserves, and shooting clubs and planted out for - the purpose of stocking these preserves, the European partridge. 'If' Is a bird about double the size of a Bob White quail and we are told that it la hardy, multiplies Very rapidly and lies' well to the dog. If these ' statements are - true these birds would furnish great sport and give the American sportsman a game bird a little larger than the quail and yet not. so large and slow in flight as the prBrle chicken. It is said that the flesh. of the English; partridge is far superior in fla vor to either that of the quail or prairie chicken. If any of these birds have ever been Imported to this country the Amerl- i can Field ' would be pleased to knowi with what success the importer has met. ! It Is thought that these birds would do well In localities where the Bob Whites lourlsb." $.:r--:--''r;-:-.-;:.i'?'- . ' The Oregonlan who keeps posted on natters pertaining to fields spOrts, while le reads this will experience a thrill of tumor coursing, through his anatomy. Che publication referred to and many 'thers of prominence have extensively lubllshed accounts of the Introduction f this bird to Oregon three years ago. vt a recent meeting of the Oregon Fish nd Oame Protective association, one of ts members , read a - paper ; on upland fame birds , in Oregon.. r n The Gray Partridge. This gentleman, beina- closely identl- .led with the introduction 'of the part idge, made the following comment: . "The latest Important experiment at Introducing a foreigner was the Importa tion of the gray partridge (perdlx cln erea) which were brought from Europe several years sgo. From personal ob servation and information at hand theso birds at once adapted themselves to their new surroundings and went to ork. raising large broods of young, and It Is evident that they are doing their oest to provide us with varied and much greater field sport If only some protect ing arm is thrown over them for a time. From information received I fear, they have already suffered severely In some districts at the hands of unscrupulous poachers. Mr. Edwin Stone writes from Albany dlspairingly on the subject and although .they had a nice start, coveys of 30 and 40 having been seen last year, scarcely a bird is to be found todr.y.'At Independence they, seeiri to have, fared better and are reported by Mr. Al Herrln to be quite numerous in that district. "I have also been informed recently and do not doubt my informant, that during last August a certain party from Farmtngton, Washington county, brought in 16 or 16, of these birds and disposed of them to a local market. Were it not that our museums should be correctly instructive I .would have been .amused hthe other day while looking over the col lections at the city hall to see a brace of these birds nicely mounted and la beled, 'Brown German Partridges.' So far as I know there Is no such a bird known to science and the application is quite misleading. The mistake may have occurred through the birds having been purchased in a German province. They are, however, the only member of the partridge family which is strictly In digenous to the British Islands. But have for many generations been widely distributed over the greater part of the old world through the process of trans planting and outside of England today are probably the most numerous In Hun garia, where they are extensively raised for. the purpose of stocking European preserves." . ; ( Oregon Sportsmen Progressive. Oregon sportsmen are progressive' de spite the many discouragements heaped on them by lawmakers of the state who have, so far proved themselves far be hind the times in enacting eame laws. Without going farther from home our sister state, California, appropriated 20 times as much as Oregon for the protec tion and propagation of its game flsh, birds and animals. An expert authority In the person of Mr. H. T. Payne, la constantly employed by the commission of the state traveling from city to ham let lecturing and educating the people on this very Important question. The pres ervation of the flsh and game Is a matter of vast economic value to any commu nity which is seldom appreciated y the average individual till the supply Is gone. There Is nothing, however, that will so readily attract the wealthy seeker after pleasure -as- a land well stocked . with wild game and game fish. Oregon Is a natural paradise for tbls class and If future legislators are .ignorant of .the proper manner of how to ' provide for their wants may .they humbly nut kindly be guided by the example of our south ern neighbors and trust to providence for results. - - , ; BXXT WEBB'S GAMES.

MULTNOMAH FIELD - FLOODED BY WATER The blockage of the sewer at the Multnomah athletic field, causing a big flood of-water and debris to settle on the field, is causing considerable talk among the members of the club as to whether or not the city of Portland is liable for the damage done. The dam age to the fine track and ball diamond will amount to a considerable sum and steps will be taken soon to ascertain wherein the liability rests. It appears that the sewer became choked and in an effort, to open It the debris was charged down into the sewer Instead of being, taken out The cause dates back some time and the city engineer's office will be asked concerning it Meanwhile the field la flooded by water. m l -"..
