Want the Game Law Changed.


Waat the Game Law Changed.
Few laws have been passed by the
Legislature OF the state Of Colorado that
have drawn out 30 much adverse criti
cism as the. game laws passed by the last
legislature. Ever since the bill became
law the sportsmen have been finding
fault with it. Nearly every feature Of
the bill has been criticised and Denver
sportsmen have passed severe criticisms
upon tho Trainer OF the bill. 1t is con-
tended that the bill was framed by
man who knew nothing Of the habits OF
game and that therefore the seasons
open and close at the wrong time Of the
year.
The matter over which the sportsmen
are now aroused is the clause OF the law
that provides that no hunter shall at one
time kill more than twenty birds. When
the bill was passed the sportsmen OF
Denver objected to this provision. but
ut that time there was no hunting and
the bill was allowed without any organiz-
ed attempts to defeat it. But now with
the duck season in full swing the hunt
ers appreciate what II means to them to
have to stop when the twenty is reached
and they intend to take the matter into
court 70 test the constitutionality Of the
Law.
Many hunters only have the opportu-
nifty OF goins hunting once or twice in
~. L.
chances are greatly in favor Of his lying
around for days without sighting duck
and then suddenly flock after flock will
appear. but according to the law ho is
allowed but twenty birds and the op-
portunity must pass.
The sportsnen have come 10 the con-
clusion that because Of the migratory
habits Of the birds the state has no right
70 pass laws stating how they shall be
hunted, - . duck might be in Colorado
ono day and in another state tho next
Some u the must enthusiastic sports
men have started a subscription list and
all hunters will be aslsed to subscribe to
= fund to be used in carrying the law to
court and determining whether or not
tne state mas right TO make laws con-
cefning o'rd whose habits are as
migratory a. those Oh the duck. 1t liz the
opinion OF lawyer-sportsmen that the
law is not constitutional and that IL 1t 10
carried into the courts. the clause placing
hmit OF twenty or any other law con-
cern'ng ducks can be killed. The SUBJ

RUNNING BIRDS BOARD A SHIP.
About 200 of Them Swept to Sea in Fog

A horde of pirates boarded the
steamer Walla Walla, when she was
fifteen miles off Cape Mendocina, coast
of California. There were about 20O
Of them and they swarmed over the
vessel, laying about them to right and
left, and plunging their long swords
into everything that seemed Of value.
Their gorgeous plumage tiutterng,
about the deck made the ship seem
like q bird fancier's shop, for these
pirates were big flock Of humming
birds with stiff land breeze behind
them They had burst suddenly out
offs dense fog, and aliyhted on the YES
sci at dusk.
The birds seemed so nearly dead
with hunger and fatigue that they had
lost all fear Of human beings. They
had probably been driven off shore by
the land breeze and lost in the fog.
Some of them perched on the first
solid articles they saw, gave two or
three little gasps, and then tumbled
over dead. Some went straight for the
heads of two or three women passen-
gers who wore flowers in their hats,
and began buzzing about them as IN,

nectar. One few into the ear Of Mr..
W. S. Mcfarland, and lodged there SC
tightly that it could not get out With
