UPHOLD TIE LAW.

Ed. ADvANCE:-In the ADVANCE
Of Aug. 10th, I notice communica-
ton from Mr.. Fred Cone, regarding
the recent arrest of one of our business
men, for violation of the game law.
and being somewhat INTEREST," upon
that subject, I beg to be allowed space
in your valuable paper to express my
self regarding the ,me.
Mr.. Come says that in "a short time
from now, guns will be booming ol, ev-
cry side, wagon loads Of men, with
troops of dogs, will be seen upon every
side" etc., etc, and in fact he draws Il
most pathetic-not to say mourrfnl-
picture of the condition of affairs. In
deed, l can almost imagine myself
speculating upon what u p!over is-or
rather-0nce was.
lie also says "lhe chicken is bound
to follow in the wake of the innocent
plover'' unless something is done.
Now, in this fully agree with him.
The law must be enforced-or the
chicken must go. wish to ask Mr..
Cone if he happens TO know of mn,y
plover being killed this season? Aud
if not, to call his attention to the fact
+ that fear of the law has been our pro-
lection.
MIR. Cone is undoubtedly aware Of
the passage of the law at the last scs-
sion of our state legislature, and l
would like to respectfully inquire who
made that law? Was it the sportsmen
who have some regard for the pres
ervation of game-or was it the market
hunters?
MIR. Cone is certainly laboring under
a wrong, impression regarding the
manner in which game should be pro-
tected, and.I would suggest the pro-
priety of his looking to the law for all
the help he and other farmers need
and if we have not enough law on the
subject, it is the duty Of our cvoakers
to frame a bill covering the weak
points of our present law. 1t cannot
be introduced half quick enough tc
suit me, ard promise you that all
honest sportsmen will heartily endorse
a law making it punishable offense
to in any way handle game for profit.
Mr.. Cone in his letter objects to ths
arrest of a person shooting chickens in
direct violation of the law, and later
on says something must be done,, :ol
the chickens will 60 like the plover:,';
Now, if MIR. Cone could, by any posi-:
bility, get the facts of the cass
fixed in bis mind, and keel
them there, he mus: know that it il
with extreme difficulty that the law il
carried oot by the officer in charge, and
that great deal Of the trouble arises
from lack of support, when lie attempts
to enforce the oath OF his Office. How
ever, have no wish to take up great
space to say a few things,- but thi:
much must affirm, l am here to sta,
by my Office, as understand it, and t
discharge my duty without fear Of
favor. Respectfully,

EDITOR ADvANCE.-Permit us,
through your columns, to say just
word to the people of Worthington,
and the subscribers of the Independent.
We have become convinced that two
newspapers are sufficient for the needs
of your town, and all that you can
comfortably and decently support. We
like your town. It's beautiful place,
with lots of good people in it, but we
haven't the capital to remain and
build up business upon the wrecked
fortunes of the independents: A better
field, apparently, has opened for US aud
we haye taken advantage Of it. Thank
ing the people who have been 80 kind
to us during our short stay with you,
we gently turn the key in the door and
consign the MOBILES County Independ-
ent to the realms of departed news
papers. e. F. MALLAnAN,

The Toledo Commercial gives the
following sensible advice to deposltors
who are inclined to become tim!d:
If you have m,ney on hand, first
pay your debts; then, it you have some
left, lend it to some one who can Sc
cure you against loss-your neighbor,
your employer, or bank. In this way
it viii! earn you interest and put the
wheels Of business in motion. The
person who draws his money ont of a
bank in To!. L, and hides it away
ought TO be driven ont Of the city to
find home in srme locality where the
seal Of the city is: "Every one for
himself and the devil take the hind
M ST." Many man is out of a job
today because he and bis wife hurried
to the bank \ few weeks ago TO draw
out the few dollars they had there.
The next week his employer was made
to pay up loan and forced to shut up
his shop, and the first man to be dis
charged was this panic stricken depos-
itor. We are knit and bound together
80 closely that even an ignorant wo-
man may in saving her few dollars
bring bardships OH hundreds and her
self Jose many times the amount of her
deposit. You who have given your
confidence to your banks, in spite Of
the whisperings of fear, the public
owes you respect and gratitude. But
for you not a wheel would be turning
in Toledo today. not hell would call
men to work. And those who owe you
the most are they who were so coward.
ly as to think only of themselves, and
who have suffered but little simply and
only because you refused to follow
their selfish, suicidal guidance"

that about 81, ,000,000 worth of property
was destroyed. The fire started in an

The Stormy Petrel's Endurance

During a recent trip across the At.
lantic the passengers on one steamer had
a vivid illustration of the endurance ol
the stormy petrol. Shortly after the
ship left the Irish coast two or three OF
these birds we're sighted at the stern OF
the ship. One had been caught at some
previous time, and its captor tied bit
of red flannel or ribbon round its neck
and let it go. The bit of red made the
bird very conspicuous, and it could be
easily identified. That bird, with Others
that could not be so easily distinguished,
followed the ship clear across the ocean.
Rarely, during the day time at least,
was it out of sight, and if for an hour or
two it was lost to view while feeding on
the refuse cast overheard, it soon reap
peared, and the last seen Of it was with
in few miles of Sandy Hook, when it
disappeared, perhaps to follow some
outward bound steamer back to Ireland.
When the fact is considered that the
ship, day and night, went at an average
speed of nearly twenty miles an hour,
the feat performed by the daring traveller
can be better appreciated. When or how
1t rested is inexplicable.-St. Louis
Globe Democrat.

George W. Dunn, the veteran natur-
alist of California, has returned to San
Francisco from a strange canyon in the
Tantillas Mountains. Lower California,
where he went recently to secure some
rare plants, nolanas and seeds of the blue
palm. He says that the canyon has never
to his knowledge before been explored
by white meu, and that its declivities are
altogether more rough aud frightful than
any he has seen on the Pacific coast,
though he has travelled much. About
two thousand Cocopah Indians were
there gathering the fruit of the palms
and pine nuts. They reached it, as did
Mr.. Dunn, by going down the almost
perpendicular sides of the Tantillas
Range. The drop is 524O feet in three
miles. Dead Indian ponies aud horse
skeletons lined the way. The formation
from the bottom Of the terrible canyon
TO the saw-toothed backbone is clean and
pure granite. Along the canyon is a
tumbling cascade OF pure mountain water
and on either side for miles are groves OF
the pretty blue palm. m.-Boston Transcript.

An interesting experiment was recently
performed at Harvard University, says
the Boston Herald, for the purpose of
finding out just how much carbonic acid
is exhaled by plants at night. A num-
Der of plants were put into a glass case
from which all air was excluded except
such as had first passed through chemi-
cal which freed it from all traces of car
bonic acid. A constant stream of
purified air was made to flow among the
plants all night, and pass out through
another chemical which absorbed what
carbonic acid the air had taken from the
plants. By testing the second chemical
1t was easy to find how much caIbonic
acid had been discharged by the plants
during the night. 1t was found that the
amount was much less than had been
supposed. The quantity of gas given
off by room full of plants is actually
less than would be generated by can
die burning the same length Of time.
Il Is proved then that so far as car
bonio acid is concerned, plants, instead
of being harmful, are on the whole bene.
fetal, since during the day they help TO
purify the air by absorbing from it the
carbonic acid which is so harmful to
people. In regard to the kind of plants,
though, q little care should be used,
especially If any person in the house is
very susceptible to odors. Heavily
scented flowers in a sleeping room are
apt to cause headache and sleeplessness,
and to sick person a strong odor is sure
to be disagreeable. Aside from this con-
sideration, house plants are desirable
wherever they will thrive.
