this, however, the company viii have
to be guaranteed immunity from suits

agree to relinquish any demand for
such service the gas bin of the city

FAVORABLE FOR HUNTERS.

GOOD Stage OF Water and Cool Weather
Please the Ducks
There are two classes of citizens
who smile when a cold wave is men,
toned. They are the coal dealers and
duck hunters.
Things look favorable for the hunt
ers this fall. The cold weather is
going to arrive while the river is still
at high stage. This means chat the
wild fowl will take their flight south
by easy stages, stopping to feed in
the tempting sloughs where the willy
nimrod lies concealed.
The Mississippi is doing its part to
get things right to tempt them to
stop. More water is reported coming
from above and it is expected to go
a few notches yet. Any place over
four or four and a half feet makes
plenty of water for shooting.
If 1T turns cold the birds will go
down the river fast and some of the
hunters will try to be in position to
stop few of them.
