TIE SHOOTING SEASON SENDS THOUSANDS OF
sPoRTsMEN TO THE COUNTRY.
Hunters. and there are thousands Of them who
went after game with the opening or the geferaI
shooting yesterday, have several dii1icuites
to contend with this year that are not altogether
usual When 1t Is said that thousands of sports
men have gone after game there is no exaggera-
ton; IL 1t was said that thousands went from TINS
city alone in the past two days, there would De
nothing false In the statement. One train that
went down Long Island on Thursday afternoon
carried ffty-one sporting dogs. Hundreds OF hunt
ers will leave New-York to-day for all sorts OF
select grounds in New-York State. on Long Island
and In New-Jersey. Game is said to be more
abundant in New-Jersey this year than usual and
It Is believed that in New-York State there Will
not be any such scarcity as the enthusiasts on
game preserving would have one believe.
The peculiar difficulties In the pursuit OF game
this season are the result o: the long spell OF dry
