II the editor of the Riverside Press Of
California tells the truth, the white wild
goose of the Pacific slope is remarkable
bird. he says that he once killed one. 1t
took four bullets from 44-caliber Sharp's
rifle to bring the bird down at range Of
seventy-fve yards. Each cartridge con-
tanned ninety-two grains Of powder. All
the bullets passed through the heart Of the
goose, and lodged in the skin on the side
opposite from where they went In. An at
tempt was made to boil this bird. Strange
to say, the bullets were cooked to jelly
before any impression was made on the
goose"
