HUNTERS HAVE
EDUCATED BULL
USE ANIMAL FOR DUCKING
BLIND
Game Commissioner Prltchard Ares
Two Men at Bakersfield on Charge
of slaughterlng Vast Num-
Der Of Birds

The death of a highly educated bull
the loss of Richard Browns left arm
and charges of violating the game and
fish laws of California against Rich
ard Brown and Henry Schwartz. is
the ending of a duck hunting expedi-
tion in slough in the vicinity OF
Bakersfield.
The motive which brought about this
strange combination of circumstances
was desire for gold. At least that
is the story told by Deputy State
Came and Fish Commissioner
Pritchard.
The two men accused Of violating
the game and fish laws were arrested
In Bakersfield last week.
According to Commissioner Pritch-
ard, the scheme which the men had
concocted to deceive the authorities
and thereby add materially to their
own financial condition was never par
alleled in the history of California game
law breakers.
According to Commissioner Pritch-
ard Brown and Schwartz had secured
large bull, which they took into
their confidence and trained thorough
ly. The bull was duly christened
''Tarus H." and crowned with gold
tips on his horns. Ills mission after
that in life was to act as an animated
blind, behind which the alleged law
breakers might hide in safety until
desirable point had been reached,
from which the ducks could be literally
slaughtered.
Los Angeles herald., 1906-01-17
Hunter Is Wounded

Through some source the attetion of
Pritchard was called to the proceedings
near Bakersfield and that official inn
mediately proceeded to the Kern county
town.
Before his arrival Schwartz acci-
dentally shot and killed his trained bull
one morning. When Pritchard and a
deputy arrived on the scene and were
waiting for the arrival of the men who
were slaughtering the birds, Brown,
apparently despondent over the loss
of the valuable bull, strolled along the
edge of the slough. Accidentally he
stumbled over an obstruction and in
doing so his shotgun was discharged.
Browns watch was torn from his
vest pocket and imbedded in his left
arm breaking the bones so badly that
amputation became necessary. In this
condition ne surrendered to the Off
GERS and the arrest of his partner was
effected without the slightest trouble.
The trial of Brown and Schwartz
on charge of exceed will come up
Ia the near future.
Los Angeles herald., 1906-01-17
Used Bull as Blind

Every morning, according to Pritch-
ard, the bull was awakened and led
down to the vicinity of the slough.
The men would then station themselves
on the side of the bull out of sight of
the ducks and walk him along the
edge of the slough until within close
range of the ducks which congregated
In thousands on the slough.
Both men, it is said, armed them
selves with large bore shotguns and
would open fire on the ducks simultan-
eously, from over the back of the bull.
The result was a slaughter Of the un-
suspecting birds.
After each bloody charge on the
birds the men, said Pritchard, would
STOP long enough to gather them and
hurry to the Bakerseld markets, where
they disposed OF them readily. In the
meantime the bull was allowed to Craze
on the fields as a reward for faithful
services.
When the men were again ready for
his assistance a call to him would be
given, out of hearing of the ducks. on
the slough. "Tarus H." would imme-
diately be at their service. The op-
Grafton would be repeated, often as
many as three times per day, said
Commissioner Pritchard.
