THOUSANDS. or QUAIL TRAPPED.
Held During the Closed Season and
Killed for the Opening
Market.

SAN DIEGO. CAL, Oct. 2-Ths is one
OF the great quail counties of the State,
and local sportsmen have for years at.
tempted to preserve the great hocks of
quail inhabitinS this section. To this end
a county game warden with salary OF
$85 month was appointed four years ago.
Last summer the lncum bent resigned and
a. D. Dunn, Populis, was appointed.
Almost mediately rumors were circu-
lated to The effect that the game laws
were being violated With impunity. Moth
ing was proved and no arrests were ever
made by Dunn.
The quail season opened at O'clock ves-
terday morning. The shops opened and
within an hour tire market was flooded
with quail at 60 and as low even as so
cents a dozen. 1t was discovered that
thousands of quail had been trapped and
held un til Thursday, and then killed al d
thrown on the m arket.
On Monday meeting will be held to
determine why Game Warden Dunn has
not enforced the laws. The quail were
trapped in Mulvey. Rose and other can
yons near the city and kept alive as long
as possible, of course, but: they refused to
eat in captivity and many died OF starva-
ton.

FAVORS BOND ISSUING.

West of Castro Street Improvement
Club Goes on Record.
At a meeting of the West of Castro
Street improvement Club THURSDAY the
question OF issuing bonds for public utili
ties and permanent Improvements was
discussed at considerable length.
President w. ]. Nixon was under the
impression that the power lay with the
Supervisors TO have the bonds issued, but
on this subject Major B. McKinue. who is
a lawyer. started him right by Informing z
him that before any bonus could be issued
a special election must be held BY the
people. ana a majority of the voters, if
they so decided, could grant the neces-
sary power 10 the Supervisors to have
the bonds issued. This explanation prov
ing satisfactory, the club lost no time in
placing itself on record as favoring the
measure by adopting resolution to that
effect.
Secretary C. A. Osgood was instructed
to draft the proper document and have it
in shape at the next meeting OF the club,
when final action Will be taken on it.
This action was deemed necessary in
consequence of the one dollar limit
pledge, together with the disposition
made manifest by The people not to incur
any more burdens on the taxpayers at the
present time. The city, it was claimed
would never be improved unless by the
issuing of bonds, and the sooner they went
at il the better it would be for all con-
cerned.
The fact that the residents gof the Noe
Valley are compelled to support system
of public schools ont of the pockets of the
parents in addition to the payment of their
taxes was cited as very good example
for the necessity of issuing bonds. 1t was
fhnnphf Ii
cient money to at least keep the public
school running should be cheeriully pro-
vlded by the Supervisors. But the reverse
was found to be the case.
