The St Peter Herald SAYS:
1T is not likely that Clarence II.
Saulpaugh and two other Mankato
sportsmen will be given an emporium
ity TO go into a federal court and ex.
plain their method of determining the
arrival OF daylight. Complaint has
been made to the department of
agriculture that they violated the
federal game law prohibiting the shoot,
ing OF wild ducks before daylight,
and there Is reason to believe
that the charges will be pushed.
"0n the opening day of the hunt
ing season daylight occurred official
ly at $3.50 a. m. That morning Dep
uty Game Warden p. J. Karpen of
this city, was on duty at Swan Lake,
and he relates that at SIG two hunt
ers near at hand fired into a flock
of ducks. He started to row toward
them, and at 5:1S a third man fired.
When he reached the scene of the
shooting he found that three Man
kato men were responsible for the
bombardment.
They were quite indignant when
approached by the game warden, and
later, IL is said, summoned him to
their camp to discuss the matter.
There the curious discovery was made
that the Mankato watches, with but
little variance, registered ten min
utes faster than the timepiece car
ried by the st. Peter warden.
Deputy Karpen refused to be mol
lifted, however, and reported the case
to Fl. II. Rider, executive agent of
the state game and fish commission.
Later the complaint was sent to r. A.
Cleasby. district inspector under the
federal game laws relating to mi
gratory birds, and by him has been
forwarded to the proper officials in
the department Of agriculture. Mr..
Cleasby was in st. Peter Wednesday
questioning witnesses who. may be
called upon to offer testimony in the
case"
