Sportsmen are eagerly looking forward . - to the open season for Chinese pheasants, as it is evident that the shooting will; be better than ever before. Everyone who has had. an occasion to go through the fanning districts has noticed that the. supply of young, birds is unusually plentiful. One can not drive through the wheat lands in any "direction from Corvallis without frequently starting up large flocks of the beautiful birds. Just last week a farmer living near here," started up a bevy of nearly 30 birds about half grown. There has .been, some mis apprehension in regard to the pneasant law. arising1 no doubt rom misleading articles that have appeared in many papers of late. There was a law up in the; last egislature but was not passed, to change the present law. The present law does not open the season until October. As a general thing a large number of the birds are killed each year be- orejthe season opens by hunters or by the - rains Ithat : kill the young birds soon after they are hatched. This year, however. there was no rain until the young pheasants were strong enough to survive it. For this reason there will be twice as many vouner birds as last year. The pheasants are less timid, too, than formerlv, owing to a stricter enforcement of the game aws. A. few years ago illegal hunting was so common that the pheasants $ became wild, and sportsman had difficulty in get ting withinrange of them after the season opened. - Illicit hunt ing has now been almost entirely abandoned, and the birds are easily approached up to the be ginning of the open season. Marion Lytle has Smallpox. Marion Ly tie has smallpox in Philomath. Saturday he- was taken with a chill, Sunday he had a fever and Tuesday the pus tules that are the. unmistakable signs of smallpox began to ap pear on his face. The case is very mild, and Mr. Iytle suffers little or no inconvenience now the eruptions have begun to ap pear. He was in the livery stable at Philomath when Haw kins dame in on the 4th all brok en out with the disease. That is the only exposure he had to any se, but, as many more were ex posed, there are still others who may yet take it. Hawkins and Speedy were re leased from quarantine Monday. Speedy did not break out with the disease at all, as he was vac cinated by Dr. Newth soon after the exposure. They both went up into an old cabin in the hills, however, and remained there un til they were pronounced cured. Thev took an oil can and boiled their- clothes and thoroughly dis infected before coming down. All these cases are exceedingly mild and not particularly dan gerous. It is called by some Ma nila itch, but physicians who have been to the Philippine Islands say that this disease is unknown there, but is called smallpox in a mild form, and be longs peculiarly to the Pacific Coast of the United States.
