what do you think of the present lawl-On-
the-Wing, Beatrice.
Ans,-It was not, although the Omaha Gun
club had an amendment to the law drawn up
by Judge Kennedy covering this very point
and introduced by Christian Specht, but for
some inexplicable reason it was laid on the
shelf. The present law is wholly made
quaGe, and should be improved upon at the
earliest possible moment. Prairie chicken
shooting begins month too early in this
state, and vast portion of the slaughter Is
even done before the open season arrives, Tho
market hunters go at IL as early as the sec
ond week in August, and it is almost in
variably the caso at this time that you see
the old birds scurrying before the dog, or
linlping and trailing with dropping wing, a
sure indication that the little chicks are hid
ing somewhere in the swae or brush. Just
now, as is generally the case at this time Of
the year, big crop OF birds is predicted.
But In September on the first day of
which month the open season
begins you will find that the con-
scienceless market hunter has been out be-
fore you, and that the bulk of the birds are

hraska need patching up most wofully.
hieken shooting ought not to be allowed
day before the 25th OF September, and If
some such change is not soon brought about,

years will accomplish ats extinction.

THE POLO LEAGUE.
Chicago Makes Application For
Membership ~.

NIemDerSn1p. ia
The prospects of Polo league, including
Kansas City, ST. Joe, Lincoln, Des Moines,
Sioux City and Omaha, as mentioned in last
Sundays BEE, has set the lovers of athletic
sports all agog, aud the universal desire Is
TO see the scheme consumma-
ted. Polo would be grand sport
for the Colisum building during
the long winter evenings, and no mistake. 1t
is lively, rattling, invigorating game at all
stages, and never fails to work an audience
up to the fever heat of excitement. In this
respect 1T IS even more exhilarating than
baseball, and is extremely popular wherever
played. Manager Prince informs The BEE
that lie has opened up correspondence
with parties in Kansas City and the other
cities named, and that lively interest is
already manifested there He thinks that,
after the baseball season begins to wane, no
difficulty will be experienced in organizing
the proposed league and getting il on a per-
manent footing for the autumn and winter
months. The sporting editor of The BEE
has received letter from Chicago on the
subject stating, in case the league material
ICES, that the Windy City would like to be-
come member. Chicago, however, is a
trifle out of the circuit, but Manager Prince

PEARLS or THOUGHT.

Beware Of silent dog and wet rat

Envy shoots at others and wounds herself
Vows made in storms are forgotten in

Zeal without knowledge is like fire without
hight
Youth and white paper soon make an i'm
preston
a goose quill is more dangerous than a
lions claw
What We call time enough always proves
little enough.
History is not fable agreed upon but truth
disagreed upon
little seeing saves much looking; a little
speaking saves much talking.
He who waits to 90 a great good at once
viii seldom do anything ST all
Remember that inpertineuce isn't wit any
more than insolence is briliancy.

Relief for Cold in the Head

in acute coryza, cold in the head, some re-
lief can usually be obtained from certain
finely powdered drugs used as snuffs In or
der to do good without doing harm they
must be very mild and unirritating in their
action. A powder composed of equal parts
of powdered starch, boric acid, and the TING
ture OF benzoin has been suggested by Vigier
The mixture should be triturated for q mo-
ment, then dried with gentle heat, and put
into box, without pushing the powdering
process too far" 1t may be used quite freely
and quite oft.n-Boston Herald.
