GAME wARDENs, BUSY WEEK
Leave Omaha After Having Success
fully Prosecuted Several
Poachers.


The game warden, George simpklns OF
Lincoln. and his deputy, George Carter Of
North Platte, closed a successful engage
ment In Omaha Saturday and left behind
them a number Of people who will have a
little more respect for the laws Of the state
made for the protection OF FISH and game.
The wardens came TO the city on sure
information. They arrived Wednesday
evening and that night on Cut-Of lake
made the most important arrest Of the
year, when they captured SLEEPY" Hewett
and Frank Burwel In the act Of SEEMING.
Tom Jones was the third man in the party,
but he jumped into a skif and made good
his escape at that time. The next morn
ing at IL o'clock Jones was under arrest.
having been captured at the lake.
on the visit to the lake for Jones the
officers made the FIRST arrest Of the year
for illegal shooting. The parties taken
in charge on this occasion were Joseph
Snyder and T. C. Coots. They had been
shooting yellow legged snipe and when ar
rested had four birds with them. Before
Justice Foster they pleaded guilty and
Received a fine OF $40 and costs. which they
paid.
SLEEPY" Hewett worked his rabbit foot
on the Iowa officers, as he was taken to
Council Bluffs for trial. When arraigned
he offered to plead guilty II assured that
he would be given a comparatively light
fine. II was arranged that he would be
fined $40 and costs in consideration Of the
fact that he would pay. After the fine was
fixed he concluded to stay in Jail SUFFICIENT
time to square accounts with the state, so
his term OF service ended last night. A
constable from Omaha was on hand to
nioE him IN uhan ha MA RELEASED nv the
Iowa authorities.
Burwell was tried before Justice Foster
yesterday afternoon. He received a sem
tence of thirty days In jail. On the stand
he said that the last work he had done
was painting buildings at the exposition
grounds and that he had made his living
for the last six months catching frogs.
The trial of Jones will take place next
week.
The fish car. which left 5000, 900 nsh at
Cut-off lake last week, will start out in
the state Monday. 1t will go from Lin
coin to Columbus, stopping Tuesday at
Seward, where a number of the fry Of the
wall-eyed pike will be placed in the Blue
river. At Columbus the same variety OF
fish will be planted in the Loup.
Saturday a start will be made from
Omaha over the Union Pacific to Sidney
and fish will be distributed to parties who
have made application for them to stock
private lakes and ponds. Since the new
law went into effect the fish commission
has received about $500 from the sale of
young FISH and fry.
1t is estimated by the commissions that
from so to So per cent Of the fry planted
in the lakes will live, the deaths being
due to change in the water and the depre-
dations Of larger fish.

Result OF the Matches.

The result of the two matches, however,
was something Of an upset, as 1t had been
anticipated by many that Dick Kimball
would make his third and ina winning for
the Bidwell trophy for best score. which
Foye annexed, and that Foye would ac-
quire a lien on the Cartan cup for handi-
cap. but Of this he was robbed by Jack
Cudahy's aggressive tactics that defed. the
wind gods and beat them at their own
game. AS promiscuously entered in the
clubs record the players made the follow
ing showing, the three figures after each

DIscouraEing Day to Play.

Nearly all the players Of last year bios
somed again for this initial day of the
new season. and tingled with pleasure as
they felt each stroke bringing them back
nearer to old form. The relentless wind
and occasional m~omentary dashes Of rain
made driving crucial, lofting aggravating
and putting precarious, but they weathered
1t like seamen with no especially unkind
remarks except when Foye's ball was blown
SO far into a patch of shrubbery that IL
cost him three strokes; when Dick Kimball
stalled on the eighteenth hole and lost the
grip that he had secured on the Bidwell
trophy, or when some similar catastrophe
blasted a particularly promising future.
With many 1t was pre-eminently a day
for relaxation-and they relaxed. ]. H.

is or ever was any such thing as q ta2

a city councilman, and strobe from hole to

came no lower than the ones he wore at

GOLF IS KING ONCE AGAIN
Play Resumed at Country Club Links
Amid Much Enthusiasm.
FoYE WINS BIDwELL CUP At OUTSET
Jack Cudahy Surprises the Talent by
Cartan Cup Through
Ala of His Little
Handicap.

The Country club abruptly ceased its hi
bernating Saturday to place the links
again under a browning sun, to dine IN the
coy halls when evening had come and TO
dance in the later hours Of a genial May
night. II was wholly an auspicfous open
ing OF the clubs third season.
w. j. Foye won a fresh hold on the Bid
we'll trophy for best score In 81, but sac
rihced to Jack Cudahy the Harry Cartan
cup for handicap score, Cudahy finishing in
SO. The playing was against a stif wind,
which swept the links from south to north
and buffeted balls in mid-air Just in time
to drop them into yawning hazards or
whisk them from their course. II was a
and early piety.
Those who visited the house and broad
acres for the first time since the closing
last fall found pleasing alterations in both.
The buildings interior has been redec-
GRATED in the same color scheme as last
years, and for the $50 diners last night
and the dancers later there was a profu-
sion OF flowers and palms, the latter to
screen the musicians who had been en-
gagged for both the dinner and bail.
Changes in Landscapes.
But 1t was in the landscaping that change
was mObl hOllCSdDlts Inc QTlNeb are III
concreted now, but every other inch OF
ground is being made a Kentucky green
with grass that cannot suffer Of thirst since
the installation OF a water supply. 1t has
cost the club s., 900 to coax a main from
the city water works and distribute the
supply through the grounds in a network OF
lateral veins buried eighteen inches under
the surface, but the result recompenses,
for now the whole grounds can be kept in
that condition dear to the golfers heart,
with putting squares as verdant as a lawn
for all their constant cropping. The fifteen
old bunkers have all been thrown up to
still more appalling heights and Eve new
bunkers added, with other hazards, not,
however, including the one Of water. The
holes have been heightened, but Chairman
Harry Lawrie Of the greens committee
states that the DOGGY is reduced from IS to
10 and that he expects so soon as the
soaking begins to have effect that the club
will be proud in the possession Of abso-
lutely perfect links. Yesterdays initial
trial of the remodeled course suggested
only one change and that was the moving

For Supreme Judge.

There will be five places on the stl-
preme court of Kansas to be filled at the
election next fall and consequently five
candidates to be named by the RepublI-
can convention. The nomination of
Judge Green, Cunningham, Ellis anil
Pollock is conceded to be the proper
thing, leaving one new name to add
the list. There has already been some
discussion of the subject and of all the
candidates considered, Henry z. Mason.
of Garden City, seems TO to be the
best qualified and the most suitable. He
is lawyer of ability, of education and
of highest standing. His temperament is
judicial and in the community in which
is his home and among all who know him
in public or private life, he is regarded
absolutely fair. just. honorable and
upright. During the last session of the
legislature he was chairman of the Judi
ciary committee of the house and by his
honesty. sincerity aud ability. has been
accorded leadership by committee and
by house. His acquaintance over the
state is such that there will be in every
neighborhood man to vouch for his
fitness and his nomination would be
everywhere regarded as proper and right.
We anticipate an objection the score
of location but there should be none in
fact Mr. Mason is from the western
half of Kansas and there is not even one
supreme Judge west of the line which
passes north aud south through the CEN
ter of the state. That would seem
too settle tho geographical question in
favor of Mr.. Mason, although far as
we are concerned we believe fitness for
the place should be the test when applied
to selecting judge of the supreme court
and not of geography 1t is true that
Garden City is in the same congressional
district with Newton. the home of Judge
Green. but they 200 miles apart and
when the reapportionment is made next
winter it is practically certain that
Harvey and Finney counties will be in
different districts. In fact Judge Green 5
home is nearer each and every one of the
other five judges than it Is to Mr. Mason's
home, and geographical distribution OF
the candidates could not but nominate
Mr.. Mason.
But the points of ability, fitness, pro-
fessionaI standing and general acquain
tance are the vital oUes to consider Or
every one of these urge the nomina-
tions of Henry H. F. Mason. as the frs
step to place on the supreme bench judge
