Birds Stuffed with Sauer Kraut.
Deputy Game Warden E. Hunger of
Lincoln, says the State Journal, known
throughout Nubraska as the "Dutch
deputy," was born in the "faderlant,"
and he demonstrated his ability to tell
the difference between a barrel of sauer
kraut and a barrel of quail. "You
can't fool the Dutchman that way,"
said the station agent in Greeley coun
ty where two barrels of game were con
signed for St Louis one day last week.
Deputy Hunger is also aware that
sauer kraut is shipped from St. Louis
to Greeley county fnstead of being
sent the other way. Two hundred and
seven prairie chickens and fourteen
quail were in the two barrels. The
barrels were of the large size used for
shipping whiskey and still bore the
distiller's brand. They were labelled
"sauer kraut." In the head of each
barrel was a dummy bung hole filled
with a wooden plug. Beneath the
plug was nailed a large tin cup so that
if the bung was removed for inspection
nothing could be seen except the bot
tom of the tin cup. No arrests have
been made. As usual in such cases
the shipper will probably elude detec
tion and escape prosecution. If the
legal fine can be imposed, he will have
to pay $1,105. One barrel of the con
traband goods was sent to the soldiers
home at Miltord and the balance of the
birds will be distributed to charitable
organizations in Lincoln.
