IN ARKANSAS CASE
Ducks Beginning to Appsar-Said to
Be Following Skunk Rivcr Valley in
General Flisht-keokuk Dam Having
Effect on Iowa Streams-Open Earli-
or Than They Did Before.

Clinton. Feb. 23-Until a ruling by
appeal in the Arkansas case, attacking
the constitutionality Of the United
States migratory bird act, is an
nounced, federal inspectors will con-
tinue to secure evidence for use in
prosecution of violators of the fed
eral regulations. That was the an
nouncement made III Clinton by Harry
Barmeier, of Dubuque, district inspec-
tor under the United States migratory
bird law. Mr.. Barmeier was here Ell
route south and stopped TO confer with
several local sportsmen.
Wild ducks have begun their annua.
spring flight from the wintering zone
of the south to the breeding zone Of the
north and Mr.. Barmeier is being fairly
besieged with inquiries as to the status
of spring hunting. He made it plain
that there has been no change in the
hunting season for water fowl, so far
as the district inspectors have been
informed, and that it is still confined
to the period between Sept. and Dec.
Is.
Nearly all the ducks in Iowa" said
Mr.. Barmeier, are following the
Skunk river in the central part of the
state. 1t is peculiar fact that since
the construction of the keokuk dam,
the small rivers emptying into the Mis-
sissippi in the vicinity of the dam ara
the first to open and the ducks follow
them in their northward flight. There
is a bunch of several thousand ducks
reported at LeClaire but they are all
winter ducks"
Referring to the appeal now before
the supreme court, Mr.. Barmeier said
that while it had been heard Oct. IS,
1915, no decision has as yet been an
nounced. Should the court decide the
law unconstitutional, Of course, spring
hunting in this section would again be
possible. II the law is upheld. Mr.
Barmeier is confident there will be
some revisions made by the advisory
board. Ninety days are required, how
ever, to assemble the board, by which
time spring hunting permission would
oe useless for this year.

QUEER MATRIMONIAL MIX.
Sioux City Man Returns and Finds
Common Law Wife Remarri

Sioux City, Feb. 23.-Trouble be-
tween a husband and a former hus-
band almost resulted in a fatality at
the Ralph l. Pitman home. 1880 Court
street. Officers, who were summoned
to the place at IL: so o'clock, learned
that Pitman had drawn revolver and
threatened the life of Joe Shrode.
Shrode married Pitman's former wife.
Pitman is a fireman for the Great
Northern Railway Company. About
two years ago. he told the officers, he
became husband by common law
No marriage license was secured. Pit
man and his common law wife are tho
parents of a little girl, who is now
critically i'll With pneumonia.
A month ago Pitnan went to North
Dakota and fired an engine which
pulled q train out of Minot. During
the month Mrs. Pitman received no
word from him. and she concluded that
She had been deserted. Last Friday
she was married TO Joe Shrode, who at
the time of the wedding did not know
that the woman had ever had another
husband or that she was the mother
of a child
Last night Pitman returned from
North Dakota and found Shrode in his
home. He procured revolver and
ordered the stranger from the house.
1t was then that the police We're noti-
fed. When patrolmen J. P. Farley ano
NJ E. Farley arrived at the Pitman
home it required many words to ex-
plain the situation. They We're about
to place Pitman under arrest. but the
woman made vigorous protests.
Finally the matter was satisfac-
torly explained. Shrode promised
the officers that he would go to the
court house today. explain the position
in which he now finds himself and
have the marriage annulled. Pitman
told the patrolmen that he would be
legally married to his common law
wife at once In view Of the explana-
ton and the promises, the officers
made no arrests.
