Sunday Fishing.

The opinion OF the Attorney-Ge Of
this State that fishing on Sunday is prohib-
tied by law. is simply statement which
cannot be gainsaid. Under the Penal Code.
fishing on Sunday is illegal. and. as he
says. 1t is the duty Of all fish and game pro-
tectors to see that the law is enforced.
Whether they can compel respect for tho
legal prohibition is another matter. The
waters adjacent to New York. for instance.
are lined with cottages. hotels and board
ing houses which are filled during the sum
mer with people from this city. Only COM
paratively few OF those able to leave the
town at all can go any further away. They
must be near enough to New York to go
back and forth every day OF the week ex-
cept Sunday; and Sunday is the only day
they can have In the country for rest and
recreation. 1t Is also the only time when
those who are forced to remain In town
during the summer can get days outing
In the country; and of the Inhabitants OF
New York probably these are nine-tenths.
Happily New York and Brooklyn are 30
situated that within an hours journey are
a multitude OF seaside places where the
people can secure this needed refreshment.
where the accommodations for their enter
tainment are abundant. and to which the

New York at Gettysburg.

After thirty years tho State Of New York,
which has already erected on the field OF
Gettysburg many monuments to It's rcgi-
ments and batteries that took part in the
great battle Of July 1, 2. and g. 1868. now
dedicates on that field q costly shaft to the
memory OF all its soldiers who fought there.
: The remarkable part borne by the troops
Of the Empire State In this greatest OF all
battles ever fought on this continent justi-
fles the erection Of this memorial to them.
They included no fewer than sixty-five in
fantry regiments and seven regiments Of
cavalry. besides a score OF batteries OF artil-
lery. OF the officers commanding tho in
fantry regiments. twenty-eight wore killed
or wounded
Tho Legislature at Albany long ago pro-
vided for the appointment OF Commits
sion to superintend the erection Of mon
uments to individual regiments and bat
teries and Of q general State memorial
ut Gettysburg. In one Of its reports this
Commission mentions fact which Is emi-
nently characteristic Of that battlefield:
I'm all ages Of the worlds history and in
oil countries the admiration Of the people
for their military heroes has sou4ht
expression in costly monuments, built
In honor OF great commanders. In
this country. the disposition is to
commemorate the virtues and services
OF our citizen soldiers. upon whom the
brunt and burden Of our civil war mainly
rrfell. The monuments will have touching
interest for hundreds Of thousands OF our
citizens in all parts Of our State. who are
associated BY ties Of blood and friendship
with the New York commands that fought
ct Gettysburg" The lapse of time has vim
dicated the truth Of these words.
Gettysburg was battle Of which the
glory largely belongs to the rank and file.
This Is true alike of the victorious and the
defeated army. It was n battle. too. in which
the vanquished as we'll MS the victors can
fairly take pride: and We accordingly find.
year after year. those who wore the gray
visiting the field to talk over its memories
with those who wore the blue.
New York may we'll be proud Of her part
in those memorable three days. and prop
eriy sets up her monument. to tell its story
to future generations. Thousands Of vet
Grams are already on the battlefield. or on
the way thither. and the thirtieth anniver-
sary Of the battle will be observed with i'm
pressive ceremonies.
