WAR IN NEBRASKA.
Caleb Brogari brought the report to
Nemaha Tuesday morning that there
was a flock of goeso in J. L. Halth'a
timber and that the big snow made
their wings so wet they could not fly.
He said Halth bad kill 3d seventeen
with a club and Geo. Yackly had killed
fourteen in the saam manner. Stove
Cooper hearing the report immediately
called for volunteers to slay the entire
urmy ef geese, John Elliott, Hank
Waterman, Frank Flack and Elmer
Rumbaugh responded, and they organ
'zed by electing Steve Ooopor captain,
John Elliott first lieutenant, Elmer
Rumbaugh seoonU lieutenant, Hank
Waterman orderly sergeant, aad Frank
Flnck corporal. Capt. Cooper agreed
to convey the company to the seat of
action at 10 cents each. On the way
they made all their plans of attack.
Capt. Cooper and Lieut. Elliott were to
attack in front and Lieut. Rumbaugh,
Orderly Waterman and Corporal Flack
were to attack in the rear. Capt.Coop
er being very considerate, gave strict
orders not to kill any but the best and
largest geese. At this writing the or
derly has not made any report of the
number killed It is creating dissatis
faction for several reasons. One is
that they knew It was unlawful to
hunt on Haith's land, as he had adver
tised that he would not permit uny one
to hunt on his land. Ho came to town
ind demanded helf of the game or he
would prosecute them to the full ex
entof the law. George Yackly says
it will he a great help to him us his
nogs are not doing well and he will ea't
down the geese he goL for his meat.
If aith has not decided what be will do
with his, Capt." Cooper has his dray
Tor sale, as he will quit hauling sugar
ind devote his entire time killing geese
