EVANSVILLE, CAL, June 26.-Two years
ago IN July the mem bers of the Yuba and SUIT
ter Gun Club entertained their friends with a
"doYe stew at Sheltons Grove. Pretty nearly
everybody in the two counties pretending TO
know the difference between a hammerless
shotgun and hole in the ground was there.
1t was great event-one OF those rare ocea-
sions when every man loves his neighbor even
better than himself. Just the mention OF 1T is
sufficient to arouse tender feeling of enthu-
siasm even to this day. The gun club proposes
to repeat the affair this season, and July l9
has been selected as the date. The subser1p-
ton list is now going the rounds, and as soon
as it has completed the circuit invitations Will
be issued and other necessary formalities gone
through. There will be trap-shooting at live
birds and bluerocks, and 1t is expected that
number of sportsmen will be present from Sac

hoped by many sporJsmen who observe
the game laws as true sportsmen should,
that the Fish and Game Commissioners
will deputize az least one OF their deputies
TO scour the hills of Marin County, be-
tween San Rafael and Petaluma, as quite
number of deer have been killed during
the past two weeks. A letter from a men,
Der OF the Sportsman's Club of Point
Arenato the sporting editor of The CALL
states that campers near the Gualala
River have been killing a number Of deer
during the past month, and that one party
OF lxmen slaughtered twenty-six deer IN
one week just for the fun of killing them.
The club has employed a constable to visit
the camps, and if any deer meat is found
IN the possession of the 'pleasure-hunters"
the poachers will be made to pay dearly
for their sport.
The season for the killing of grouse and
mountain quail will commence on the
10th of August and end on the 10th of
February.
Market-hunters are killing young ducks
IN the tules about the Sacramento and San
Joaquin rivers But as there are no
officers detailed to protect the game, the
slaughter will go merrily on.
1t is well known that deer when hard
pressed will often take to water, and stays
sometimes come to bay in depth suffi-
cient to bother hounds, but not too deep
to allow OF free play for the antlered head
But the doe pursues different tactics. She
will crouch under water until only her
nostrils are above the surface, and thereby
entirely battle the pack unless a keen-e eyed
huntsman detects the ruse.
