FEDERAL GAME LAW Shortens Hunting Day at Both Ends, Cuts Out Spring Shooting, Divides Country Into Zones EFTORTS MADE TO REPEAL IT There is a good deal of misunder standing In ron;ird to the new game law of the United State. This In due to w great extent to a lnUundei standing of tho provisions ;f th. law by some of the newspape rs fin L trying to give Information aljul it. Other papers relying upon thoso statements aa being occuruitu, pub lished them, thus giving greater publicity to the errora. The state ments In the following evtr u. from a dispatch from Was-hingtor, D. C, to the Nebraska tHato Journal un der date of August 23nl are proba bly correct an.l we believe are re liable: Aa the fall hunting season foi geese, ducks and other tiansient water fowl approaches u'-inrtds throughout the country are begin ning to rcalUe that Uncle Sain has curtailed their sport toy taking the migratory bird under bib pn.ectlou. Already bills are being inti-oduccd to repeal the law. Alter October 1, when the new federal law goes into efftct, nil shooting is forblddeu durl'ie these hours Just after eurwt and before sunrise, which are the bet of the day from the hunter's point cf vie. According to the bureau i 'flelals. there regulation have been framed on tho principle of igivlag the bene fit of the doubt to the birds, where as, laws previously enacted have been, It la claimed, in the interest of the hunter. At the same time an open season is provided, alleged to be reasona bly long, and at a time of year when game blrda are most abundant and at their be -it. It it argued that protection cf the birds means In the end conserving snort for the hunt er. Many protests are being made against the prohibition of all shoot ing between sunset and sunrise, on the ground that it practically amounts to a clotted aeaeon all the year for those whose only time for hunting !s early in the morning or lu the evening after work las over. Western men in congreea ckalm that farmers are complaining that they nre especially hard hit. Moreover in the fall the sun acta ho early a to make the new hunting tUiy far tco short. Possibly the mo: important and far reaching of the new reflations is tho prohibition of all spring shooting. The rasou for this is obviously the protection cf the birds while enroute to their nesting f.rounds mid while mating, and its nfor?emcnt It is belivcd will mean n ?reat Increase in numbers by fall. A third provision whU-Ji in unpop ular1 amcng the hunt era Is the ab solute piohibiilon of all bunting on the Ohio. Mitvsist-ippi und .Missouri rlters. The intention of this Is to provide water fowl a safe highway from their whiter feeding grounds In the lower Mississippi valley to ther nesting grounds in ftllanisota and Dakutaa. It aUio afford an ex tended refuse which ia easily defin ed and van be generally revegnized. The other regulations adopted by the department of a&Tlculture for putting the nt.v law into eft e ft have to do fur the most putt with mak ing uniform throughout" the country the laws already existing in the var ious state. .More thtin fifty separ ate seasons for migratory birds were provided under statute In force in 1912. According to the ex pert this effort to provide .pectl seasons for each kind ol game in each locality merely made a chain of open seasons for migratory birds, ant allowed their continued de struction from the beginning of the first season to the close of t'.e List- The Zone System It is believed that better reeuk 'will follow the adaption at the few et possible number of cones . and so regulating the seaecra la eacJi .as to Including the time when each species fcs the most abuadfetnt -for this reason the country bras been ti Yrtkxl into two sones, one to include the . states, la which the mier itory 1-iro breed, and the other the states ia whi ther winter. ' . Wit hit Ihese sones the. seasons sr fixed for the pecttl natural Alliance, Nebraska, for transmission matter. per year In advance groupn, waterfowl, rail, sho.'o birds and wudco.k. The hunting season l limited to a maximum -f three or three and one-half months, and reg- tilnted and adjusts! with a vitw to giving reasonable oiportunity of kr riiihur thirty dnys' shootlr.t of any spedes in a gJven place. In zone one, which comprises ttat?s lying wholly tr in part north of Intltude 40 degrees and the Ohio river, few changes have been made exrept in diminishing spring shoot- In',. In zone two, comprising states south of Include 40 degrees and went of tho Ohio river, the open season for du?ka Is between October 1 and .lu runny 16. In zone one It Is between September 1 and Da Tim ber 16. An exception la made In zone two of Maryland, Virginia and the Carolinas, where the season from November 1 to February 1. A LITTLE WORD A little word ?. but a sotnd, n hs wed-off chunk of wind; we scat ter little words 'round lirom here to farthest Ind. They are such inex pensive things we don't economize, and so the world we live in rings wkh foolish words and wise. A lit tle word Just costs a breath, the shortest that you drew, yet it may wound wine heart to death some heart that's good and true. And wrevk 'ioiiie man's renown or stain some woman's fame, and bring brUht castles tunvbllng down into the muck of shame. Your little words, like poisoned darts, may crooked fly, or strakht, and carry inio loving hearta the venom dire of hate, lie 'not so lavish with the breath thnt forms the words of woe, the words that bear the chill of dtath and lay true friendship low, A word Is but a slice of aiir that's frfihioned by your tongue; so never let It bring despair or grief to old or young. But give to it a note of love and it will surely eem the symbol of the life above, and of an angel's dream. Walt Mason.

SPORTING AFFAIRS Edited by "DOC" 1 C0PLLAD At llemlngford Inst Saturday night the W. O. W. put on another one of their athletic enttertalnments, which was largely attended and as successful as In the past. The main event was a match between Hank Weber, ILght-welght champion of Wyoming, and logan Champ of Grand Island, the latter winning In straight falls, the first in 23:30, the second in 18:40. Weber was handi capped owlnig to the fact that he wies delayed and had to make a for ly mile auto drive arriving at llem lngford after ten o'clock and going on the mat without any rest. Marsland fans were treated to one of the et wrestling bauts, on Mon day night, ever held there, the main event which caused so much interest being between Hank Weber of Wy oming, lightweight champion of his elate, and Kid Florian of Whitman. Florian has wrestled in Marsland be fore and by his pleading ways and his ability u a mat art I -it he Irn made himself a prime favorite vl'.'a local fans. The go was a fast one Florian having hi lianris full all tl.e time, the first fall going 55 minutes flat, Florian winning, and also tak ing the Keiond, in 18:20. This shows by defeating the Wyoming champion that the "Kid" has the goods. The next event of import ante will be staged at Hemingford t he first week In October date is not set at present Loan Champ and Kid Florian being matched tor a return go, as Champ holds a win over Florian, deflating him July 1th. Word received Tuesi'-iy from John ny Kin-.; from Youngstown, Ohio, to t lie efftct that he had been exam ined by "I'onesettrr" Reese, his trouble being misplaced tendons. Dr. Reese expects to have hi in In shape to so barli into the game in a fchort time. The Chicago White Sax have pur-chasi-d Pitcher "Red" Faber of the De Moines club of the Western lenue. The difference between an every day pitcher nnd a pitcher who is a ball player, that- is, one who can do other things in a game besides pitch, was forced home upon the fans at Somers park Tuesday. Cy Falkenburg was the pitclur while Walter Jaha son was the pitcher-ball player. Had Falkenburg been able to do only one-third us weJl a his rival slab artist on offence, that is, produced a hit with Carish on third in the second inn..ig, the Najs would hive wan the game. Johnson contributed a trifle which netted a run. a double and a bunt single wlrvh aided mat erially n the four runs. In the tenth Inning, Falkenburg walked once nnd fanned twice. Johnson has run Ula Btrlnig of sirafeht wins up to four teen gi'ines. The Cross-Dunlee battle dated for Labor day has been indefinitely postponed. Owing to the fatality In the recent Wfllard-Young fight which was held under the same manage ment.
