' brought the nvnnt
lIt - coureurs ot the great

, now preening them-
elves In southern
, . mash , and lagoon for
t- k , their nnnlnl mlgr-
il : ton north , In sight ,
. _ . _ _ _ _ _ _ .emv. . : but Ikowlo flel
the heart of the restive sportsman
with enthusiasm. Already there has
been some tow birds killed-
mostly Illntals and Ilutchin's geesenntl the !
gunners are all feverish and impatiently
awaiting the arrival of the fentherel hordes
In forco. They are all expecting great
' sport , but I do not think they will get as
much as they anticipate. In fact , I looks
to me as I the season was going to bo an
unusually poor one , still I lay be mis-
taken At any rate , the advance guard ot
. the birds has come In earlier , much earlier ,
than Is customary , but I consider this but n
spasmodic flight that will be of but short
duration. There Is certainly mich Inclement
; , weather yet In store for ns during the 11rc-
ent month , and the main issue ot ducts
and geese will not start north much before
the mIddle of ' the month , let the weather bo
what I iiiay. The \'ery general , rinfal of
a few days ago has contributed n great deal
: c to the duck liuntrs' expectations , but It
; certainly was not ulOllent to fulfill the ro-
qulrennmts that would warrant the hope of
any uncomlion' sport In this lin. ' 1 will
take ten times the amount of rain we have
had to replenish 'our low lakes and streams
and dried-up marshlands , which the wild fowl
; love to haunt , and to justify a belief that
any considerable abundance of sport Is ahend.
' Prior to the recent storm the Prospects for
the spring shooting were the most meagro
for years , and to my way of thinking there
' has been but small Improvement Such
another try period ns this western country
. has but just begun to emerge from has not
marred history In many years. I came on
early In June last , reigned uninterruptedly
; throughout the summer and fall , and but
light and inconsequential rain or snow
: storms have broken the arid sway during the
winter month The result of the snmmer's
irOlth was the incontinent drying up of all
our small lalees , sloughs and streams long
: ere autumn properly began , all by the time
the wid fowl season was fairly on , even
. many or the Inf er bodies of water and
- rivers were so low that inducement for the
. birds to linger but briefly on any of their
' former favorite feeding ground was so
emaciated that the slontere ! kind of shoot-
Ing was the rule. That the conditions have
been anywise extensively ameliorated , I
doubt exceodlngly. For good wild fowl
shooting , as I have often asserted , there must
be plenty of water. With lakes fled with
: naught but muck and slime and the marshes
but areas of cracked and seamed congroto ,
there Is but little opportunity for the palm-
Iped beauties to eke out a livelihood , and
, no matter how ! plendli the atmospheric conditions -
iilons or favorable the other conditions
; are , the birds will tarry but a short time
ere they continuo awing to haunt more In
_ . conformity with their necessitIes for refresh-
- mont andrest. There must be more rain ,
much more rain , before I would venture to
f ' predict anything but a repetition of the ex-
. !
' . h perlnr.os [ of last fall. Should there yet be
- " a heavy dscont . or rain or snow all over the
west , on the plains and In the mountains , a
, veritable freshet , such as would make river
j4 and stream fret and froth within their con-
v ; fines and , send their waters gushing on to
gulf and sea , Oiling up lake and flooding ,
i marshland , then might we look for rare
sport with the kingly canvasbaelt , ' the lordly
mallard , tie redhead , pintail , tent and blue-
7 bill , to say nothIng of the honkers , the gall-
, nagoes and yellowlogs.
\ , Again , the past year's unprecedented baited
I period wont a long way la ruining the crop
, - , of feed ; there was precious little In the fall
and It must bo , \ofuly less In the spring.
Time wild rice fields In the north all west
wore naught but wastes or dried and empty
stalks. Nutritious seeds were shriveled up
and there was nothing but a sere and yellow
, spread of leaf and tendril ovel'ywhoro.
Where wild celery ( sporals vnl\sncrla \ ) once
ilourislmcd In luxuriance It disappeared absolutely -
lutely last fall , and all of the aquatic plants
and grasses wore next to utterly burnt out
In mnny or time best grounds In the state ,
'
and It Is not lIkely that the birds wi wax
fat upon the fnrenaceous deposits erstwhile
so plentiful. They will bo forced on to
more favored lands before they can gorge
" themselves upon these subaequeons delca-
des that wore once their portion here.
, hence , the JJqor outlook for the sport .hat

speaking of Fred Rustn , the Omaha boy , tIme
wrier says :
The captain of Ynle's base bal team thIs
year Is likely to bo In a measure o\orshud-
owed by the presence on the team of "Dutch"
Carter , time "phenomennl pitcher. " Carter ,
like Alonzo Stagg , has won a national reputation -
taton In the bx , and for thIs reason will
be the central figure of the nine. This fact ,
however , Is no disparagement to Captain
Rustn , whoso work In the field , though of
a less brilliant type , has nevertheless been
one of the strong points In Ynle's team
during the past two year.s , Rustic bas never , ,
gone Into any other sport and has led a very
quiet sort of life at Yale. The beginning
of his college course was saddened for him
by the tragic death of his elder brother . who
was Injurel during his initiation Into Delta
Kappa Epsilon . one of the junior 'fraternites
'
of the aepdnld / depaTrtment. The younger
brother was almost distracted , and for n
Lime gave up his college , course. '
