Most z EH.itins Of AiI--Novei Way 10
Smoke Out coyotes--snaring Rabbits
From Car.
The automobile is revolutionizing the
method Of bunting Wild game in west
ern Kansas. No true sportsman now
starts on any kind OF hunt out there
without an automobile. The old way
Of bunting from a two horse spring
wagon is entirely too slow now.
A wolf hunt under the new plan Is
the most exciting Of all. One man
runs the auto, and another does the
shooting a machine can run miles
and miles on the open prairie OF the
west without coming In contact with
a fence or d creek. When a wolf. or
coyote. as II Is called on the pralries.
Is scared up the auto takes after him.
Now, wolf runs ia an easy circle.
He doesn't dodge back and forth, 80
II Is comparatively easy for the driver
TO keep right behind him. But the
auto must go some. A coyote can
knock Off thirty miles an hour with
ease. A few days ago some Garden
City hunters ran down a coyote and
killed him with the wheels. That was
considered u great hunting feat.
How Coyotes Are Smoked Out.
When hunters used to chase coyotes
on horses and with dogs there was
never o record Of where they drove the
coyotes to their dens But it is differ
ent with autos Coyotes run untis they
are about to be taken In and then
make for their dens. In order to
smoke them out'' the driver attaches
rubber tube to the gas tank Of his
car and runs the other end down in
the hole. That soon brings the coyote
out. And the race is again resumed /
until the animal is bagged.
The old fashioned way Of hunting (
Jack rabbits was for several hunters to 1
90 out In two big lumber wagons. The
wagons would be connected with a
piece Of wire about 200 feet long. This
wire, dragging over the ground be-
tween the wagons, would stir tile rab-
pits up. aud the hunters, walking be-
lind the wire, would shoot them. It
was not an uncommon thing for a
1unch og hunters to bring In two
wagon loads Of jack rabbits as a result
II one days hunt
Sharing Rabbits From an Auto.
The rabbits were sold to a rabbit
annery and worked up into canned
tufts for eastern markets. This is tho
yay rabbits are still hunted for the
anneries. But the true sportsmen.
Who go out for the fun OF the thing.
ave new plan now. They stay in
be auto and snare the rabbits with
wire loop.
Autos make good blinds for wild
uck shooting, and they also enable
portsmen to follow up flock Of !
ucks from one pond or slough to an
ther. Frequently the hunters will
Ike out after flock OF ducks and bag
sveral Of them before they get out OF !
inge from the auto.

GAVE GOOD SUPPORT

Pueblo. Col, May 31.-After losing
the game IA to Saturday making the
tenth straight game lost Pueblo sud
denly awakened yesterday and de-
feated Dick Cooley's Topeka aggre-
cation by an overwhelming score of
Is to 8. Topeka fielded nobly and
kept up the matchless support to the
end of the game but the locals
pounded Starr and Thomasson for
. the Kansans for a total of 10 hits. An
occasional base on balls and hit by
the pitcher helped the game along
and made the score much higher than
it should have been.
Miller was steady and dependable.
Wooley and Andrews were the only
Topekans, the former driving out
three hits and the latter bagging two.
Andrews made the first score for To-
peka in the second when he slammed
out a three Dagger and was sacrificed
home on a long fly by Kahl. Miller
helped his game along by knocking a
home run in the fifth with the bases
full.
There was crowd of 1000 at the
game, the largest in the season.

Topeka will certainly have a lot of
double headers to play at Sioux City.
If the two teams are anywhere as near
together at the middle of the season,
these double headers should be great
drawing cards.

Sioux City 8. Omaha 2.

Sioux City, Ia, May 31.-Two home
runs by Stovall, both clearing the
right field fence were responsible for
the one sided score in Sundays game
with Omaha. The two ''homers"
melted five runs. A total of fourteen
ats were secured from the pride of
Omaha, Swain, the locals hitting him
at will. Freeman for the locals was
very wild at times-giving eight men
free passes to the first plate. When
the bases were full he frightened and
kept the Omahogs at his mercy. A
new put out record was established
when Shea, catcher for Sioux City put
ont 16 men.

the ball to all corners of the field,
Topeka won Saturdays game in a

hits including home runs by Geier

brought two men to the plate. The
errors were as free as the hits. To-
peka making 8 and Pueblo 5. The
scores were secured directly through
errors by Andrews of the Cooley
tribe. Kaufman kept his hits well
scattered and the locals were unable
to score except on errors. This is

In the early stages of the game it
looked as though Hyland was getting
the best of the contest. Nelson was
apparently laying low for his man. In
the thirteenth he strengthened and
Hyland was losing steadily until the
twentieth round when Nelson knock
ed Hyland down time after time CIV
ing him staggering blows with blind
ing volleys of right and left hooks to
the head. Nelson was Kissed contin-
uously by the crowd for his attempts
to rough it and throughout the game
the men exchanged unfriendly COM
ments.
The attendance was estimated at
5000. The receipts were $4,000 of
which Nelson receives $500 and Hy-
land $1,000.

for awhile but played outfield after
King was brought in to play second
base In place of Graham. Then Shipke
came along and the midget Pendry was
shifted to the ouefield, where he has
done some pretty good work. Pendry
has been hitting the ball, and for this
reason he is retained in the regular
lineup. Should any of the infield posi-
tons be in need of a utility man, Pen
dry will be brought in and Duke Hol-
lenbeck, a pitcher. who is hitting the
pail hard, will go to the outfield. Pa is

berth with the Indians and he would
have, doubtless, had not Richard the
unkind grabbed him. Dick, you are
just a little hoggish. Cut it out next

Manhattan Mercury: The salary
limit in the C. K. league is $500 per
month. If manager carries twelve
men this makes an average of s66.75
month for each player. When several
c. K managers are paying some of
their players over a hundred a month
and have signed no men at less than
sixty or seventy dollars per, what is
the use of a salary limit, unless 1t be to
delude some honest manager?
