I herewith send a clipping from the 

 Ukiah City Press, published at Ukiah, 

 Mendocino County, Cal.: 



WILL BE ARRESTED. 



A warrant was issued Sunday last for the arrest of 

 Robert Edgren, the well known artist of the San 

 Francisco Examiner. Game Warden Ornbaum 

 charges him with having killed a grouse Saturday last 

 on the Boonville road. 1 he grouse was the mother of 

 a fine flock of young ones. 1 he little chicks of course 

 perished after the wanton murder of their mother. 

 The artist was informed by a friend that he had made 

 himself subject to arrest, and he took his way South 

 without waiting for the papers to be served. 1 he 

 grouse in this county, and m fact all over the State, 

 are rapidly becoming extinct, owing to the rapacity of 

 hunters. In a few years they will have altogether dis- 

 appeared. It is the same with other small game, as 

 well as with deer. The severest penalties should be 

 inflicted on violators of the law. 



This spring a young fellow here ran 

 across a band of 5 bucks. He killed 4 and 

 lamented because the other got away. I 

 overheard a stranger who is camping here 

 complaining that he and his partner killed 

 only 10 deer on their hunt the other day. 

 He said they should have killed 17. I sup- 

 pose that was the number they saw, and, 

 swine like, they wanted all. 



Game Warden Ornbaum, of this district, 

 is doing good work. He has had several 

 persons fined for killing deer out of sea- 

 son, and one for killing quails.
