SNIPE GAME LAWS.

    A SNIPE HUNT.—There is a young man, one of several guests of the Copeland house, who may find himself in the clutches of the game law of the territory. If this thing should happen to him it will not be because he has not been duly warned of the expiration of the laws today, or rather last night at midnight. He is from California where there are no snipe, and in consequence no laws for their protection from the ruthless hunter. The subject of snipe was casually mentioned to him a few days ago by one of the other guests of the house. After that he talked nothing but snipe; he gave his friends no rest until they organized a snipe hunt for him. Its organization was perfected yesterday evening and the party went out on the desert several miles north of the city. There were the candles and the bag, necessary accessories of a snipe hunt. The last seen of ihe snipe hunter was about 10 o’clock. He was then standing, holding the bag firmly, the flickering candles lighting up the look of determination on his face. He had not been heard from at 11 o’clock. If it can be proved that he held that bag an instant after, midnight a warrant will be sworn out today for his arrest.
