SPRING SHOOTING
Provisions of the Federal Law for
Preservation of Water Fowl to
BE Rigidly Enforced With
out Change.

Washington, ID. c., Jan. 29.-From
the number of letters which they
have received on the subject recent
ly, officials of the department of agri-
culture believe that sportsmen may
unintentionally violate the provisions
of the federal migratory bird law,
which 1t is the purpose of the govern
ment to enforce rigidly. Under the
provisions of this law no water fowl
can be shot in the northern or breed
ing zone after January is, except In
New Jersey. where the season eK-
tends to February l.. In most of the
southern or winterlng zone the sea-
son closes February /, but extends TO
February Is in Florida, Georgia and
South Carolina. These regulations
were proclaimed on October /, 1914.
No change has since been made in
them and no change is likely to be
made until the constitutionality of
the law has been passed on by the
United States supreme court. AS a
matter of fact, the law provides that
all changes in the regulations must
be considered for a period of ninety
days, and then must be approved and
signed by the president, before they
become effective. 1t Is thus evident
that there is no possibility that the
prohibition of spring shooting will be
in any way modified this year.
The officials of the United States
department of agriculture who are
entrusted with the enforcement of
the law are anxious that these facts
be impressed upon the people be-
cause it is the intention to investigate
carefully all reports of violations
made to the departments inspectors
and wardens and to prosecute all
such violations in the federal courts.
In this connection it Is pointed out
that prosecutions may be instituted
at any time within three years of the
offense.

GATED PRESS.

New York, Feb. special: Again
it is in the east that the most san
culinary fighting is taking place-in
east Prussia, in parts of Poland and
in the Carpathians.
Most important of these engage
ments is that in east Prussia, well to
the north of the Mazurian lakes,
where the Russians met a severe re-

Gen. Won Hindenburg in the early
days of the war. Here the Russians

twenty to thirty miles. the Russians
report they are fighting in the for
ests to the north of Gumbinen and
Pillkallen, a line running north and
south thirty miles in length.
Petrograd says that near Borji-
NOV, in Poland, trenches were taken
from the Germans by bayonet attacks
and that on the Galician front of the
Carpathians the Russians have made
satisfactory progress.
Vienna declares that to the west OF
Uzhok pass. in the Carpathians. the
Russians have been ~repulsed with
heavy losses. and Petrograd probably
confirms the fact that the Russians
in this vicinity have met with a re.
verse by its statement that lin the
face of superior numbers in the re.

Called to the Homo.

George Bastunas, 1908 Fourth ave
nue.. Moline, is in the city hospital
with severe cuts in his head, his wife
has a swollen and stiff neck and his
15-year-old step-daughter is hysterical
today after having been unconscious
for several hours yesterday, as a re
suit Of battle royal that broke cut
in Bastunas' home yesterday after
noon.
1t is learned that there has been
trouble in the family fer some time
A few nights ago the husband who
owns a restaurant in Moline, applied
to the police. asking them 10 force
an entrance 20 his home His wife
had locked him out. he said.
Mrs. Bastunas made serious charges
against her husband, asserting that he
had several times attempted to attack
her 15-year-old daughter.
The trouble came to climax yes
terday afternoon when, according to
Mrs. Bastunas, her husband choked
her aud beat her.
She was losing consciousness, she
says, when her daughter interfered.
Bastunas turned and struck the girl
heavy blow in the temple. It is said.
/ She fell to the floor unconscious and
remained so for several hours.
Husband Is Disabled.
/ The short respite enabled Mrs. Bas-
tunas TO seize a sugar bowl, which she
saws she threw back over her shoulder
/ striking her husband on the head. Po-
I lice say. however, that from the ap-
/ pearance of the mans head and from
! the fact that the woman's hand is cut,
! thew believe she struck him several
times with 1t.
Today Mrs. Bastunas' neck was
swollen and was so stiff she could not

TRAFFIC OFFICER
HAS TRYING TIME
Pedestrians Of Moline Are Being Asked
to Turn a Square Corner ana
Trouble Is the Result.

The present holiday season IS not a
happy one for the Moline traffic officer
stationed on the corner Of Fifteenth
street and Fifth avenue. A new rul-
ing has gone into effect that pedes-
TRANS must follow the crossing line in
stead of cutting diagonaiIy across the
intersection.
Traffic has become SO cOngested at
that corner that it has been deemed
advisable TO have the officer give the
order. Make the crossing square.
1t is very apparent that Moline's
idea OF a square resembles d semi
circle. True, they all heed the warn
ing cry and uplifted hand OF the po-
liceman- and then make semi-circie
around him, evidently being possessed
of the surprised thought that he has
suddenly lost his senses.
