BRING down GAME
First Day of Hunting Opens
Well.
HUNTERS THRONG MARSHES
Reed Birds, 0rtolan, and Blackbirds the
Prey-Hard to Find After Being
Killed.

Since daylight this morning. the resi-
dents of East Washington have been
listening TO the sharp reports OF hum
dreds of shotguns in the hands of
sportsmen who are thronging the
marshes of the Eastern Branch in quest
of reed birds. ortolan. and blackbirs3s.
The game laws that cover territory in
the immediate vicinity of Washington
are lifted, and from today until the
first frost drives the ''reedies" TO their
winter home. every day Will find scores
of hunters in every marsh within reach
of the city
The first day of the open season of
1905 proved to be a good one. although
the weather is bit warm TO push
boat about and the marsh growths are
still rank enough TO conceal half the
birds that are killed. The enthusiastic
hunter does not mind these difficulties.
however, as was proven by the num-
Der who were on the shooting grounds
early to get the first shot of the sea-
SON.
Hundreds of Boats.
From the Berlning marshes to the Po-
tonac hundreds of boats. laden 10 the
gnwales with men and guns, are being
showed about. Analostan island. also,
is covered with hunters. All sorts and
conditions of men are out. from expert
shots, armed with the best and most
expensive double-barreled shotguns. to
small boys. ARMED with sinSle-barrels
and air guns There are pros a-plenty'
biackbirds and ortoian being IN the ma
5ority There are reed birds, too. but
t:sey are flying high today
The advance guard of the hunters
reached the marshes before daylight and
were on hand TO blaze away as soon as
there was light enough 20 see the birds
as they came from their rOOStS- Many,
however. did not go TO the marshes un-
til after midday. and when they arrived
on the scene they found plenty OF game
waiting for them. The great trouble lay
in finding the birds after they had been
shot.
Owing to recent rains. the water is
very high in all the marshes. This makes
IL impossible to wade through them and
yet the conditions where the growth IS
high are such that a boat cannot be
pushed through Therefore, the hunters
have either TO walk around the edges of
the marshes and watch for birds TO come
over or row up and down the channel
in boats.
Hard to Secure.
In either case. if a bird falls into the
marsh instead of on dry land or in the
water, it is next to impossible TO find
il or to get to it. often, il Il lies in clear
view
Little difficulties like these do not
dampen the ardor of the true sports
man, though. Dealers in sporting goods
report an unusually large sale OF guns
OF guns galore. Every boatman whose
boathouse is within reach of the shoot
ing grounds had all his boats engaged
several dayc ahead. and at noon today
there were hundreds of men about wait
ing for boats to come in.
