Violating the Game Law.

Last Thursday the examination of Z. Ii.
Gilman, president Of the Turtle Lake
hunting club, took place before Justice
Cavanagh. The charge was hunting deer
with hounds, In violation of the State
game law.
1t appears that when the club were at
Turtle Lake last November, enjoying
their yearly deer hunt, they had with them
a representative of the Evening News,
and he wrote an account OF the sport
there. In that article the newspaper man
made mention of the use Of hounds for
hunting deer, and the question of violat-
ing the law was thus brought prominent
ly before State game warden Hampton.
The State agent came to this city and had
a warrant issued for the arrest of Mr..
Gilman.
Judge Gartner, Of Detroit, appeared
for the defendant, and Prosecuting Attor-
ney Mcnamara conducted the prosecu-
ton.
The defense claimed the right to use
hounds on his own land, and argued that
the law was unconstitutional.
Justice Cavanagh, after hearing the ev-
