J Foreythc. a California pitcher recently JJ.i ' signed by Rellly. made his debut yester fSi ,lny am mtul0 a favorable Impression.

I ( Titus retired before the Inning closed and : "a'as replaced by Tozler, who put a damper j ( on tho Redmen's festivities.

The valley of the River Amazon Is the resort of vast numbers of cranes that And In the marshes along Its route ex cellent feeding grounds. But these birds have hitherto been of little use to mankind save In exterminating various insect pests that thrive In the lowlands. It has remained for the natives of Ven ezuela and adjoining countries on the north side of the River Amazon to avail themselves of the services of the native crane to care for their poultry and also use it in the place of a'collle or shep herd dog to guard and herd their do mestic animals. This remarkable bird, which the Indians call ynkamlk, and the ornithologists psophla crepitans, Is found in a wild state In great forests that He between the northern coasts of South America and the Amazon and British Guiana. The birds never leave the forests unless shot or capturod. They travel about In Hocks of from 100 to 200 In search of the berrlos, fruits and insects upon which they subsist. Their usual gait is a slow and stately march, but they enliven themselves from time to time by leaping In the air, executing eccentric and fancy waltzes and striking the most absurd and pre posterous attitudes. If pursued they endeavor to save themselves by run ning, for their flight Is so weak, accord ing to Schoiuburg, that when they at tempt to fly over a body of water of any considerable width they are often com pelled to drop upon it and save them selves by swimming. When alarmed they utter tho peculiar cry which has obtained for them tho name of trumpeters. The sound la something like that produced by a per son endeavoring to shout the syllables "Tow, tow. tow, tow, tow" with his mouth shut, or the doleful nolso made by children on New Year's day with the trumpets. The yakamlks usually de posit their eggs in a hollow In the ground, often at the foot of a tree. The nest generally contains ten eggs of a pale green color. The young birds fol low their mothers as soon as they are hatched, but do not lose their pretty down covering until several weeks old. The yakamlks are very readily tamed, and prove valuable servants to the In dians, who domesticate ,thein, and as they are courageous and will protect animals Intrusted to their care at every risk to themselves, even dogs are obliged to yield to their authority. They may be trusted with the care'ot a llock of sheep or domestic fowls, nnd every morning will drive the ducks and poultry to their feeding places and. carefully collecting any stragglers, bring them safely home at night. A yakamlk soon learns to know and obey the volco of his master, follows him when permitted wherever ho goes, and appears delighted at receiving his ca resses. It pines at his absence, and welcomes his return, and Is extremely Jealous of any rival. Should any ani mal attack its master the yakamlk in utmost fury attacks it with wings and beak, driving it away. It presents Itself regularly during meals, from which It chases all domes tic animals, and even tho negroes who wait on the table If It is not well ac quainted with them, and only asks for a share of the eatables after It has driven away all who might aspire to a favor able notice from tho family.

( PUTTE, Mont., July ?. Boiso was helpless against tho puzzle department of Sporer today, the slab artist of the Miners) pitching ball not excelled In any of the big leagues of the country. On the other hand, McFarlan was con nected with early in the game, and during the fireworks the Miners gal loped around the circuit in bunches. The Boise baiters woro able to nego tiate but five hits off of the stock of puzzles shoved at them by Sporer. He walked but one man and hit one In fant, the2 occurring in the ninth Inn ing. Sporer also caused eight Babes to swat the air In an endeavor to lo cate the leather. In the second Inning Elsey cracked out a two-bagger. McHale sacrificed him to third and Elsey vumcos-sd for home when Bandelln flew out to Wea ver. Runkle took a nap while on third In the third Inning and deprived Butte of a inn. Runkle had singled and went to third on Lally's single. Lally stole second and Kellackey, by a fake throw, caught Runkle dozing at third. Shaffer then slammed the ball out and Lally scored. Tho Infanta tied the score In the fifth, when Houtz lined out a. two bagger. Hammond scored nun with a single and then stole second. Babbitt then lined It out for a two-bagger, bringing in Hammond. The Infanty se cured three hits In this canto, and dur ing the remainder of the performance were content with two. The Miners got these two runs back In tho sixth. Shaffer was there with a single and Jimmy McHale swatted one for two bags. Both runs- came in when Spencer hit safely. In the sev enth the MInerii kept up the good work. Ward got to first on fielder's choice and Runkle singled. Hits by Lally und Shaffer scored them. The Miners added another to their total In the eighth. McHale got to first on Mc Closkey's error and stole second. He was sacrificed to third by Spencer and romped home when Bandelln ham mered out a safe one. In the ninth, with two gone, the Mi ners got foolish and allowed a run to creep In. Houtz walked and Flannery way hit. Houtz stole third and Flan nery attempted to repeat the trick. Wlille all were engaged In chasing Flan nery up and down between baseu Houtz ambled home. Shaffer finally dropped the ball and Flannery was safe. Spo rer then struck out Hammond. AB. R. II. PO. A. E.
