HUNTERS GET
FIRST GEESE
SEVERAL PARTIES OF NIMRoDS
SPEND SUNDAY IN QUEST OF
FEATHERED GAME. NUMBER
OF HONkERS ARE BOUGHT TO
CITY BY RETURNING HUNTERS

The lure of the prairie attracted
several parties of nimrods to the
country Saturday and Sunday in
quest of geese, which may be shot in
the spring, under the provisions OF
the statutes enacted by the 1911 leg
islative session. A party comprising
Sam Clark, and B. P. Tilden Of Bis.
marck, and S. T. Parke, Of Sterling,
went to Mr.. Parke's ranch in the east
ern part of the county, and secured
eight geese and brant. These were
the first birds to be brought to the
city.
J. w. Series and son, Arthur, spent
Sunday at Long Lake, and succeeded
in bagging five of the honkers. They
returned to Bismarck on No. 3 Mon
day.
Several other parties of hunters
are planning to take advantage of
the new law and hunt geese. The
county auditor is busy issuing licenses
as the 1912 license must be pro-
cured for spring shooting.

The weather man was kind to the
residents of the capital city Easter
Sunday and the threatened cold weah-

it's appearance. True, the mercury
did not reach the century mark, but
the sunlight was warm, and no prai-
rie breezes were sweeping the dust
into the faces Of the pedestrians. The
anniversary of the resurrection of the
Savior was observed in fitting manner
by the churches of the city. Special
Easter sermons and music composed
the programs of service, and tArongs
of worships attended the various
houses of worship.
There was no Easter parade, as
graces Fifth avenue on this day. but
there were scores upon scores of new
Easter toys to he seen, gowns, millin-
cry creations and other articles OF
wearing apparel. Some of the men
wore the same old derby, but their
wives and daughters rivaled the lily
Of the field in their beauty-or the
rhododendron, or azalea. and were
Happy in their new possessions. The
Easter spirit, the spirit of Happiness,
prevailed in the capital city yester.

as there is a God in heaven. It may
not be on this earth, but there will be

fought for the establishment Of his
