Got Game Limit But
Couldn't Take It Home

A party of railroad men from the vicinity of Ashland, Grants Pass and Roseburg spent the week-end near Malin goose hunting and on their return to their homes, stopped one day in this city to visit local friends.

Four of the party, Jack Allison, W. B. Sherman, George Humphrey, an ex-sheriff of this county, and Mr. Peyton were dinner guests at the home of Mr. and Mrs. H. H. Jenkins, 919 Lincoln street, last night.

The hunting party secured the limit of ducks and geese but met with adversity when they attempted to ship their game home on the train where they had passes to ride upon.

Point blank, the local officials refused to accept the game owing to conflicting with interstate shipment.

While the game was killed in California, yet it had been brought up here and could not be shipped back, the railroad agent informed the hunters.

Photos were made of the kill and the birds were arranged in a manner which made the picture extremely attractive.
