ARE SHOOTING: QUAIL
E. Ffrvaaf: ~
Hunters Who Have Mis-read the
Game Laws Give the bWardens
Lots of Trouble.

The game wardenS report some trouble
with hunters who havef confused quail
and prairie chickens, and insist on shoot
ing quail, although the season for this
bird does not open until the first day OF
October. Chickens may bedshot now, but
quail are still protected although many
hunters are inclined to doubt the asser-
ton Of the game law to this effect.
Sportsnen this year are using the
double barrelled gun more than ever. The
pump gun is discredited by2sportsmen, and
it's sale is generally confined to country
hunters, who care more for the amount OF
game shot than for the sport OF hunting.
Even the dogs have taken a dislike to
the pump gun. An amusing incident is
told by a sportsman who has an OLD dog
that he has followed in the fields every
year for a dozen seasons. He had always
used double barrel gun, but he broke
it one day and could get nothing to take
it's place but a pump" The dog had
come to point, and the chickens rose
in bunch. The hunter let go one charge
after another until he had discharged the
gun six times, killing five birds. The
establishment of the dog was so apparent
that his masters attention was attracted
to him. The dog looked at the hunter,
with whom he had been through many a
chicken campaign, for more than a min
ute, and then SUNK back to the wagon,
showing undisguised disgust; nor could
he be persuaded to do any more hunt
ing until the repeater had been discarded
for a double-barrel gun, when he re-
sumed his work without a break. :.
The NO. II bore, or smaller, with No.
shot, is the proper thing for chickens
now, and for that alter, throughout the
season. In fact, the No. IL bore is large
enough for ducks Of all kinds. For geese
the No. 10 bore is in common use.
The Minneapolis journal. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn.) 1888-1939, 1902-09-13

last fall indeed, it is hardly probable
that it will equal the 1901 aggregation. At
the same time King will have eight old
men back, and a most promising bunch of
subs and new men to fill the three vacan
cies. Fogg, whose injuries kept him out
of the game last season, will fill Mar
shalIs shoes acceptably, good as the latter
was. The gritty little quarter is fifteen
pounds heavier this year than he was last
fall, and is said to be just AS fast. Then
It must be remembered that while, Curtis,
Cochens and Iardon were the brightest
stars of last years team, they were not,
as has often been said the backbone OF
the eleven" Abbott, Juneau, Skow,
Driver, Lerum and Haumerson were all
men Of more than average class. and with
Holstein, guard. and Fogg at quarter.
King has probably good a bunch OF
veteran players as any team in the west
has had in years.
Besides these eight there at least two
men Of last years scrubs who are fully
up to the varsity standard. They are
Fred Long, sub fullback, and Bill Moi
fatt, sub halfback. Long, while green
last year played with great nerve and
dash. He weighs 1876 pounds, is wonder
fully strong, and will be one of the most
formidable candidates for tackle. Moi
fatt is fast and strong, and with the
experience he gained last year, will make
valuable man.

PURPLE IN BAD SHAPE
Five Star Men of Last Years Eleven Are
Gone

Gone. ..'...
Special to The Journal 49,. ..- 81
Evanston, ILL.,, Sept. 13.-Northwestern
University is always an uncertainty in
football. The team does the most sur
prising' things annually In the past it
has been cratic enough to lose to a minor
eleven one week and beat a, f1rst-class ag
gregation the next. 1t played more con-
sistently last year than for a long time,
but failed to make the impression ex-
pected of it.. 1t lost only to Michigan and
Minnesota, but undoubtedly would have
had more prestige save for the total fail
ure of the tandem to do effective work.
With better material than ever in it's
history it failed to make. it's mark and
the loss Of five of the best men makes the
for the present season decidedly
dark. The purple loses it's entire back
field and as most of the new candidates
so far discovered are line men, North
western does not promise to put out
strong, offensive eleven.
In all probability, Coach HOLSTER will
have an unusually good defensive aggre-
cation. Defense is "a northwestern hobby
and elevens wearing the purple have been
good enough on defense to have won many
games had not the attack been overlooked.
Among last years men that will not re-
turn are the Dietz brothers, who made the
tandem all it was; Johnson, who is a great
running player; Elliott and Hansen. IIol-
listers only hope of replacing the missing
players is in the new material. He has
few good substitute players, which is
