REWARD OFFERED.-For some time past
parties in this county have been shooting
doves, although the season does not open
until July 1st. Especially in the highlands
in the east and south and along the streams

men, who respect the law, have protested in |
vain. Last week parties on the Riverside |
road reported that law-breakers were making |
the air resonant with the crack Of the shot
gun at doves in the highland fields east of
that road, and q proposition was made to
raise money, put out watchmen, capture some
shooter and have him before the Courts az an
example. The plan may possibly be carried
out. Meanwhile the Forester Gun Club has
taken action, and now announces that it will
pay S25 reward for the arrest and conviction
of any person violating the game-laws in the
shooting of doves in Sacramento county
So far as the law is concerned, sportsmen be-

they say, and that there may be an equal
show for all, they propose to see to it that it
is enforced.
