JP V'lmrJuTmjy Ouurt Aid;
TIiq (Jhlna nheasants whloh tho
Stnto Fish and Camo Commission
proposed to send to Central Oregon
' arrived a short tlnio ago nnd have
been plnccd with ranchers In different
parts of the count)' to bo kopt thro
tho winter. In the spring, when thoy
will havo become In sonio measure
acclimated and when weather condt
tlons will bo better, they will be lib
erated. It will be soma time nftor
that before tho birds may bo shot,
and measures have been taken to
protect them aeainst Illegal killing
In tho interval.
This shipment comes through tho
efforts of Ciydo M. McKay, district
pamo warden, who has been in cor
respondence with officials of tho state
commission nearly all summer mak
ing arrangements to have the birds
Bent here. When thoy woro secured
he began to provide for having them
taken care of on arrival and as a re
sult fouud four rancher-sportsmen,
who agreed to take thorn until tho
spring. These men aro W. D.
names, of Lsldtaw; C. O. Pollard,
of Prlnevlile; Wm. Phoenix, of Red
mond and J. S. Stanley of Bend, who
have received six pairs of the phea
sants each, there hnvlng been 48 in
the shipment from the game farm at
Corvallis.
For protection against killing the
pheasants before the law Is taken off
them, the County Court has offered a
reward of $2S for information which
will lead to the conviction of a poach
er. In addition under tho state law
n fine of from $50 up Is provided for
killing out of season, half of which
goes to the Informer. It is expected
that these provisions, as well as tho
sentiment of the sportsmen of the
count) will serve to protect tho birds
until they will have gained a foot
hold here.
As showing that conditions aro fav
orablo for the pheasant, Mr. McKay
cites the cage which several havo re
ported to. him of a cock pheasant
which has been scon with a flock of
sage hens in the' vicinity of Antelope
Springs south of Mlllican. It Is not
known how he camo to that locality
but ie has -apparently dona well
there and has gone through at least
one winter without difficulty.

YOUR OWH VOICE.
How You May Hear It 41 It Sound to
Oth.r Persons' Ears.
Laloy, who appear to have scien
tifically investigated the mutter, as
sure us that uot only does one not see
himself as others see him. but that he
does pot hear himself as others hear
him. Bomu interesting experiments
were madb by tho French savant in
thju connection.
in order to ascertain whether a man
really knew the sound of his own
voice, liloy has been at some pains to
determine tho facts. Ills experiments
show that If a person record on a
phonograph disk a few sentences pro
nounced by himself, together with oth
ers recorded by friends, and causes the
machine to reproduce these, it most
frequently happens flint the mau more
easily recognizes the voices of his
friends than bo does his own.
It appears that the differences lies
In the quality of tho tone. One hears
his own voice not ouly through tho
aTr. as do his auditors, but across the
.solid parts between tho organs of
speech and thnoo of hearing. The
sound thus produced has a different
timbre from that conducted to the ear
by the air above.
If one entertain any doubt as to thk
let him try the following pxprnmcuts:
Take the end of tdon rod between
tb lertu and pronounce the rowel
continuously. Let the other end bo
taken alternately between the tooth
and released by another person who at
tho same time stops his ears. The lat
ter will find that every time ho seizes
the rod in his teeth the sonnd will be
si ro riper than when It reaches tho ear
through the nlr Rbovc and that It has a
different quality. The passago of
sound through n solid body nugmenta
