Summer Lying Opens with Bang

Kansas opens the season for hunt
ing and fishing stories with crash
that makes other people sit up and
take notice Comrade Thomas b.
Murdoch, Ninth Kansas cavalry, who
has been publishing the Eldorado
(Kan) Republican for 40 years, makes
a long-distance and successful leap
for the center of the stage by his
story in reply to one by Owen Wis
tar. Comrade Murdoch turns to his
war diary, and finds that in October.
1862, his company was at Fort Halleck,
near Medicine Bow river. A mile or
so northeast of the fort was a lake,
which was nightly covered with wild
fowls. Every night there would be
an acre or so of them punched to-
gether in the middle of the lake. Muir
dock and some Of his comrades put
in their time for days preparing for a
hunting excursion. They had a
mountain howitzer that held an even
bushel. They swiped four boxes of
ammunition from the quartermaster
and took from each cartridge the lead
slug and six buckshot il contained.
They put the powder into a -four sack,
and estimated that they had 700 Mis-
sissippi wager slugs and 1920 buck
shot. They pulled the howitzer out
to the lake. and planted 1t so as to
sweep the center, the muzzle being
on a level with the water A hurried
survey showed them that there were
about 1900 ducks feeding in the
moonlight. sweetly enjoying them
selves and dreaming of no danger
When the lanyard was pulled the foun.
dations of Medicine Bow mountain
trembled. The boat was manned to
gather up the booty, while two of the
boys rushed back TO the fort for a
six-mule team to haul in the game
AS a good soldier. Comrade Murdoch
had to make a careful count of the
matter turned into the commissary.
and he gives this as the result.

Hawkins said as how he held his

they had look of agony as they met
those of the priest, and his hands had
been clenched so fiercely that they
had left the marks of the nails in his
