Affairs.
SANTA ANA, Nov. 2S.-The recent
rains have had q very beneficial effect
on duck hunting. The marshes along
the Santa Ana river are filed with
ducks, geese and snipe and are the best
stamping grounds around the city. An
organization known as the Santa Ana
Gun club makes frequent trips out of
town after game of all kinds and sizes
from the swift.footed deer to the
smallest snipe that grows. Last Satur-
day the club hied themselves to the
marshes at the head of old Newport bay.
In the crowd were such well-known
sportsmen as Jimmy Jones, Ed Parker,
George Bessonett, Ed Alexander, w. ST.
John, L. and Beniz Flood of this city
and Al Sanders of Los Angeles. Jimmy
Jones acted as steward and acquitted
himself nobly. They report good
days shooting and some splendid sport.
On their return they found they had
bagged 43 ducks, IL snipe, geese and
II quail. On account OF the heavy rain,
it WAS impossible 10 secure all the game
killed.
