The GAME LAW.

Interesting Points for SpOrtsmen to Con-
sider-Severe Restrictions.
Under the latest Kansas game law
water fowl are the only species OF
game that may be killed, trapped or
ensnared lawfully. The act especially
prohibits the killing or taking at any
time of any partridge, prairie chicken,
grouse, quail, pheasant, oriole, mead
owlarlz, redbird, mocking bird or blue
bird, except on ones own property.
1t is unlawful for any person or cor
poration to buy or sell such birds, ex
cept songbirds, and possession is
prima facie evidence of guilt
The punishment is fine of So
for every offense, costs and SIC
attorney fees. Birds of any kind may
be taken or killed if for the sole
purpose of preservation for scientific
purposes. The erroneous impression
has gone out that one may kill or take
any of the prohibited birds by permits
sion of the owner of the property. On
this subject the language of the stat
ute is: Provided, That no provisions
of this act shall apply or interfere with
persons who may have in their posses
sion or raise for sale any birds as pets,
or may at any time catch, kill or en-
trap any of the birds mentioned in
this section on his or her own prem
ises, controlled by such person for hi:
or her own use"

the bit of candle in it, lighted the
candle and liberated the crab, which
skedaddled for his hole anG into it he

over the hole. It got too hot down
