THE BIRD LAW.
THE OLD LAW WITH THE AMENDMENTS S
ADOPTED sY THE LAST tEGIs
IATURE
Wilmington Star.


There are hundreds of true sports
men q North Carolina who would
like to see the game laws rigidly en-
forced. The matter is. therefore.
referred to again in the STAR ''for
greater certainty" as the lawyers
say. The law, Section 2,834 OF the
Cebe. is as follows:
"No person shall kill or shoot, trap
or net any partridges. quail, doves,
robins, lark, rnocking birds, or wild
turkeys, between the first day OF
April and the fifteenth day Of Oct
ober of each year, and the person so
Offending shall be guilty of a misde
meanor and fined not exceeding ten
dollars for each offence"
This section was amended by the
last Legislature by striking out tile
words "f1rst day of April and fifteen;L
day Of October" and substituting
therefore the words Fifteenth day IF
March and first day OF November,'
There is no excuse, therefore, for MOI
understanding that it is unlawful to
shoot, trap OR net any of the birds
named between the fifteenth day of
March and the first day of November.
The penalty for violation of this
law is maximum fine Of ten dollars
for each offence. And it should not
be forgotten that every bird killed
constitutes separate offence. So
the law-breaker who goes into the
Geld some dne day before the first OF
Novem Der, "'just to practice his
"pups," and bags ten partridges, may
have to pay one hundred dollars in
fines, which would certainly make his
birds "cOme leetle high"
But why any Legislature, composed
of sapient sovereigns should legalize
the shooting Of mocking birds, the
tavorite song-bird Of the South. at
any season, is one Of those freaks
that no fellow can ever explain.

ANOTHER WORD ABouT TIE FAIR.

The Edenton Agricultural * Fish
Society, in its efforts 10 hold a nam
moth fair. is seconded With a liberal
hand. by the whole people Of this
community, and the managers will do
what is required of them to gain this
end. No doubt, maay people who
have been attending fairs for some
years have thought that there was
much Of sameness in them, but we
aim to get up an exhi bition that will
not be a stale and unprotitable repet-
ition of the efforts of former years,
but live, progressive fair, abounding
IN fresh and novel sights, and feat-
ures that will be interesting because
new and strange to the eyes Of these
who witness them. We hope to be-
able to make this the most marked
and memorable of any show ever
held by the Society or held in this
section OF the country. 1t viii be
our endeavor to have the grounds,
halls and exhibits Obscure in extent,
novelty and splendor those of any
former years. and the occasion more
conspicuous and gratifying. We are
ambitious to hold fair that will be
remarkably superior to all others OF
like class aud facilities; one not
merely rehearsal of old sights, but
unique in the effulgence OF new things:
one which shall be undisputably
grand beyond praise, strong beyond
criticism, and perfect beyond the
reasonable possibility of improve
ment. Everybody IS invited to come
and enjoy our hospitality.

NOTE AND COMMENT.

There is danger that the Investigation
Of the Worthington pumps and the man.
ner of their purchase may fail of its
object through lack of interest in il by
some of the members of the committee.
At least two of the men on that com
mittee are dead in earnest. The others
seem to attend the sessions because 1t
is expected of them. The city
council al some reason for thinking
that cause for investigation existed
or the committee never would have
been appointed. Now that it has been
appointed and has begun its work, that
work should not be half done. As be-
fore stated. some of the committee are
going about the work in peTfunctOry
manner. They show disposition TO get
through in a hurry. Their time is 100
precious TO waste in doing anything for
the city beyond drawing salary
and smoking cigars at some one
elSe;S expense in the council chamber
twice a month. They should not
be allowed 10 have their own way.
This committee may well emulate the
example of the much-caricatured but
ternan-he always pushes his ''trier'
10 the bottom of the tub. This commit
tee should 20 the bOttom. There may
be no result other than Endorsement of
the WOrthingtOn pump. But even that
result should be attained. The lnyeStl-
CATION has been ordered and COM
menced. Let it be pushed TO the end
and let every possible point be covered.
so that there may be no question in the
future about the efficiency of the pumps
or the manner in which they were pur-
chased.

Had only TO list to the musical tree.

And they missed from the cupboard a patty
of fowl.
The father would play, with a movement
most free,
birehen tattoo on Ca,ullus Magee.
If the tree made moan at the noon Of the
day.
Il meant that Catullns from school was away.
And without further question, when home
ward he came

'one day; when Catullus was merry and
The tree played sad airs at the edge of the
wood.
Awave in the odorous breezes of June.
The musical branches were all out of tune.

And the next day he chopped down the mu-

THE LOST GODS.
Rev. HI. N. Simmons Tells What
They Left to Present Faiths.


Yesterday morning at the First Uni
tartan church Rev. H. NJ. Simmons
preached on The Lost Gods. and What
They Leave Us" Following is al ab-
stract Of his sermon:
'Old theologies fall because a larger
thought OF God is overthrowing them.
The new thought at first seems atheism.
but is soon seen TO be a higher theism.
What seemed denial of deity was but
the denial of some too narrow definition
ef the word, and the assertion of a larg-
er meaning. The idea of God remains,
and from each seeming ruin rises high
er and better, and seems to give assur-
ance that it will so rise again. and
always, everlasting. ever enlarging.
Even the teaching that Deity has not
q body like 4 man. made the monk Sera-
piOn say, You have taken away nv
God The teaching that Deity has not
the bad passions of man. long seemed
still worse denial of Him. When Uni
yersaiists began TO preach that God
could not be so bad as to burn men bv
the million forever. they were called in
tidels: but the irreligiOn was at length
seen tObe on the otherside. iii the doctrine
that made God such a demon. When
UnitaTianS began to preach that God is
too great 20 have been dependent on the
person of Jesus, they were called athe-
ISIS: but the atheism is now seen to
have been on the other side, in the doc
tTine that Deity was slain one day by a
few soldiers. So astronomy and other
sciences were at first denounced as
atheistic. but were afterWard welcomed
by preachers as new demonstrations of
the divine power and order. Even evo-
luton, after being violently attacked as
clear atheism, is now becoming quite
common among the clergy. and is
praised by many Of them as the most re-
ligious theory yet taught.
Modern thought, with all its de-
structiveness. has been steadily advanc-
ing religion. 1t has swept away the lit
tie armament and creative week. only
10 find a creation eternal and infinite.
and filled with an order diviner than
Bibles ever told. It has swept away
certain supposed miracles of broken
law. but only 10 show all the world a
better miracle of laws unbroken. 1t
has swept away the old theory of a
petty providence deranging earth and
heaven to help few men. but only to
show an infinite and diviner providence
helping all by principles that are never
dtranged but can always be depended
on. Old ideas of Deity have been de-
strOyed. but only TO show the universe
pervaded by power more godlike than
the God of theology ever was; more
mighty. just ana merciful. Religion all
remains. aud broadeLed as never before.
Its Old boundaries are destroyed, but
only to show religion extending beyond
bounds. We are learning TO see
holy land not in Palestine alone.
but wherever men have wor-
SHIPPED. we are learning to hear
divinely inspired words, not merely in a
few ancient profits. but in every human
utterance for justice and mercy. We
are learning to see a holy family, not in
Nazareth alone, bur in every home
sanctifed by love. We are learning to

Dor That He Swore OF Again.
A tau, thin tramp came down Monroe
avenue last evening, says the Rochester
Democrat. He walked slOwly.and about
every block he stopped and rubbed his
back. He walked along until he reached
the corner of William street, and then
he sat down on the curb and buried his
face in his hands. He sat there without
looking up or moving for an hour or
two. until a tender-hearted man who
lived across the road, and who thought
he was sick. came over and touched him
on the shoulder.

keep the attention of the German people
to tie rights of the working classes.
Italy beeds sadly an awakening in this
direction. Whatever may be said by
politicians and monopolists, the race is
one. The good of any nation ought 10
be the good of all. and, unless we can
get this understood in Europe, we may
depend upon it that the workers. the
men who toll for daily pay in the
United States, will never see better
days than these we live in. for time and
distance grow less every year in the
presence of the triumphs of science.
The trades unions of this country could
do no better service for themselves and
for the world than to send competent.
