GEESE CAUGHT IN THE ICE
Several Hours Before Warm Rays
of Sun Released Them.

NEW Edward Cook, SUI
perintendent of the Tower Ridge
Yacht Club at Hastings-on-the-Hud-
son, was awakened early yesterday
morning by strange cries coming
from the ice-filled river. He dressed
and went out to the Veranda of the
club house, from which he saw eight
wild geese trying to free themselves
from the ice to which their feet were
frozen.
They tapped their wings in their
efforts to release themselves, but the
ice held them fast. Cook and Ed
ward w Henry got boat and start
ed for the geese, but they couldn' t
get to them. 1t was out of the ques-
ton to use firearms, for the carrying
of weapons and shooting on Sunday
are forbidden by two of Hastings
strictest laws.
A few hours later the sun melted
the ice and released the geese.
Mr.. Cook on Saturday saw fight
between an eagle and a fish-hawk
for the possession of fish which the
hawk had hooked with it's claws.
At length, after a terrific battle, the
hawk dropp~ d the fish and permit
ted, none too graciously, the eagle to
wing off with the prize.

use for himself. Bulletin No. / is
sued by the state game warden says:
Next to dynamiting fish is the
barbarous practice of batting doves
and slaughtering them by the thous-
ands. Certainly it is great sport, but
the fascination leads to the destruc-
ton of large numbers, often 5000
and 5000 in a single morning in a
small field, a wanton destruction of
one of the finest of game birds. But
let us hope that this has become a
Renaissance, that it has passed into
history to be remembered by future
generations as a species of barbarism
1t must not be attempted in Georgia
now, and every warden or deputy
warden who fails to do his duty in
bringing into court those who infract
this wholesome provision of the law
will surely receive the censure of
this office, and every good citizen
who fails will be censured by a
Quickened conscience"

WILL PROTECT THE FISH
USERS OF DYNAMITE WILL BE
VIGOROUSLY PROSECUTED.
A Warning Is Also Given by State
Warden Mercer Not to Shoot
Doves Over Baited Field.

On his recent visit to Dawson the
state game warden, Mr.. ]. E. Mercer,
expressed a determination to protect
what is left of fish in the streams of
the state, and he calls on all good,
law-abiding citizens to help enforce
the fish law. He claims that at the
present time there are very few fish
in the streams of Georgia, and that
this condition has been caused by
the use of dynamite and poisonous
matter thrown in the water He is
after the ViolatoTs "a person who
uses anything except a hook and
line to catch fish is a violator) and
he intends to prosecute all to the
fullest extent.
The sectio of the game and fish
laws which Mr. Mercer will rigidly
enforce is as follows:
If any person shall catch or take
any fish with seine, net, gig or spear,
or like device, from any of the wa
ters of this state between the first
day of February and the first day
OF July in each year, except with
hook and line, he shall be guilty of a
misdemeanor.''
Warden Mercer claims that it
would take 100000 to stock the
streams of the state with fish, and he
says if the illegal practice of fishing
were discontinued and the streams
let alone for one season there would
be enough fish for that purpose.
Dove Baiters Watched.
Dove "baiters" are going to be
watched very closely, and if there
are violations the county game war
den, Mr. Eli G. Hin, will prosecute
them vigorously. Prosecutions will
follow for shooting over a baited
field the same as for batting a field
for doves.
Generally every year about this
time great many people will use
wheat or peas to scatter over a field
where doves are using, putting out a
peck or bushel each day for a
week or two, and as the fields are
bare OF food doves will gather around
the bait by the thousands. When
the birds become thoroughly accus-
toned to the bait, and get to be
gentle and tame, certain day is
selected on which to shoot. and he
fore daylight on the appointed dav
from five to twenty hunters will take
stands in the field, behind blinds.
and as soon as it is light enough to
see the little creatures commence to
seek their breakfast, and the war"
begins They are slaughtered some
times into the thousands it is moth
ing unusual for one man to kill 100
or more, watch is far in excess Of
the number that any one hunter can
