VIOLATING GAME LAW.
Myra Bolton Before Police Court For
Selling Shared cartridges.
s.ys She Did Not Know They Had Been Pro-
cured That Way.

Myra Bolton, who lives on Church hill,
was brought before the the municipal court,
Saturday morning. charged with violation
of the fish and game laws Of this State. She
had sold cartridges that had been shared,
which the law forbids, and penalty is in
ficted for such cause. The fish and game
laws of 1898, section %, reads: "Who-
ever, at any time, or in any place, with any
trap, net, snare, device or continuance,
other than the usual method of sporting
with firearms, takes wild ducks of apy
variety, quail, grouse, partridge OF WOOD
cock, forfeits S5 for each bird so taken"
Mrs. Bolton said that she had bough.
these birds OF q young man at Church hill,
whom she did not know, but
thought his name was Chase. Size
had purchased several lots. The court con
sidered it little strange that she had been
doing business with him and did not know
who he was. Sales have been made to
Hill Locke and the J. E. Fuller Co.
A very shrewd piece of detective work
was done by Deputy Sheriff Morse in this
case. He has been on the lookout for this.
illegal business, and, last Tuesday, he met
Mrs. Bolton on the bridge across the Ken
nebec in thi, city. He noticed that she
carried paper bag in one hand and from
appearance it was nearly full. Knowing
the woman he stopped and asked if she had
cartridges in the bag. She said that she
had not, and, in answer to q question, told
Capt. Morse that she had some meat in the
paper bag that she was bringing down for
a friend. Mr.. Morse then asked to look
into the bag, and she at first refused, but
finally acknowledged she had cartridges,
four in all. He asked what she would sell
them for and she set the price at
25 cents each. A bargain was made
for the lot at 80 cents, and
the birds were taken home by the officer,
the skins taken off, but in no part of the
body could shot be found, or any evidence
other than that sharing had been the means
by which the birds had been procured.
warrant was issued for Mrs. Bottoms
arrest and her examination held as stated.
She claimed that she did not know the
partridges had been shared. and either
does not know or will not tell from whom
she has been buying the game. 1t is under
stood that the purchasers have laid them
selves liable. The case was continued sine
die. Reports are that this business is being
carried on in this vicinity, and some of
those who practice it are cute enough to
use the gun after the birds have been
shared. 1t is also said that ducks are being
netted. The means used in sharing part
ridges is to build little brush distractions
through the woods, with occasional open
ings for the bird to pass through, and when
it does the wire placed there comes into
play. These little hedges are laid for quite
long distance in some places, while in
others only short way.

FOOLISH STORY.

In his speech before the convention
Mr.. Pearson alluded to the $40 that
been sent to Topeka to aid the Doug
las House during the war" Of 1888.
And now the Pops. are telling 1t
around that the money was sent up to
corrupt the Populist House. That Is
very silly story. The facts are
these: For eight weeks, while the
Populists were maintaining the Duns-
more House in their effort to override
the will of the people, the members of
the legal and constitutional House
were unable to draw their salary from
the State treasury. Many of them
were poor and unable to pay their
own expenses for so long time. In
order, therefore, that the men who
had been legally elected to the House
of Representatives might stay there
to defend not only their own rights
but the rights of the majority of the
people, contributions were sent in
from all over the State. Allen county
did her share and the money they
contributed was paid out to the men,
bers who needed it to pay their ex-
penses. A strict account was kept and
when the Republican House was de.
clared to be the legal House and the
members were permitted to draw
their salaries, every dollar of the
money was returned to those who
sent it. All this was perfectly I'M
derstood in this county at the time,
and to try to call it up and make a
great bug-a-b boo out of it now, is about
on par with the usual Populist CAM
paign methods.

A Wife Is a Luxury.

The English law courts have formal
ly decided that a wife is not necessi-
ty of life, but a luxury. There have
been a good many breach-of-promise
suits before the courts lately. and in
two prominent ones the defense was
set up that the contract was invalid
because the contracting parties were
minors when it was made, and that no
contract made by minor is binding at
law, except it be for necessity" In
one case the defense failed because the
contract was renewed after the youth
attained his majority, but in the other
case the young fellow got off, the court
deciding that wife could not be con-
sidered a necessity.-Nashville Amer

MIRACLES IN ENGLAND,

Devil Hunting by the Catholics Of the
Seventeenth Century.
In the fervor of the Catholic reaction
in the latter half of the sixteenth GEN.
fury, Europe seemed ablaze with
miracles. Saints, it is said, flew in the
air, were in two places at once, uttered
prophecies and raised the dead. En-
gland, the theater of a supreme papal
efforts hallowed with the blood Of
many martyrs, seemed alone to lie un-
der the shadow of a supernatural
eclipse. These were miracles, indeed,
but as a rule they were insignificant or
Ineffective. The miraculous cross of
st. Donats was extinguished by COM
mission of inquiry. The sudden deaths
of unjust judges or jurymen by Jail
fever; the tide ceasing to flow at Lon
don bridge on the morning of Cam
pion's executions; the voice from the
Thames crying aloud on the death of
the English Jezebel, Forty years Of
reign and an enternity of punishment
and others like prodigies, either failed
to attain notoriety or to impress the
popular imagination.
To this apparent dearth of famous
miracles in Elizabethan England there
is on record one very notable excep-
ton. At a critical moment of the re-
ligious conflict Q5s5-15s6) there was
manifested group of phenomena in
connection with the casting out of
devils which has been hailed by Catho-
lie historians as shedding luster upon
the fame of their martyrs, and adding
new glories to the Roman church.
The prodigies in question were per-
formed in the light of day, in the
neighborhood of London, in the houses
of noblemen and distinguished Cath
olics-at Lord Vaux's at Hackney, at
the earl of Lincolns in Cannon Row,
at Fulmer and Uxbridge, and above all
in Sir George Peckham's house at Dem
ham, in Bucks.
The eXorcists to whom the credit was
given were a dozen or more of the best
known missionary priests, among
whom were several who in virtue of the
recent decree of Leo NH. are now hon.
ored with the title of venerable mar
tyrs. Their leader or conductor in the
affair was Father William Weston, SUI
perior of the Jesuits, or rather at that
the only known Jesuit in En-
gland, and afterward notorious for the
part he played in the famous Wisbeach
''Stirs;" while the most active of his
was the venerable |

One Day Short.

There is small island in the south
Pacific, where there only appear to be
six days in the week. This extraor-
binary phenomenon is brought about
by the location of the island. Travel.
ers around the world are acquainted
with the fact that time is lost while
travelling east and gained while travel
ing west, the difference of time in a
transatlantic journey alone being
about four hours. This little island is
Just on the line of demarcation be-
tween times and dates. In order to
keep right with the remainder of the
world it is necessary to skip from noon
on Sunday to noon on Monday every
week in the year. and hence the joke
that it is possible to spend a whole day
at dinner without eating an average
meal. The island is so near the ant.
arctic region that days and nights are
altogether mixed up from the idea OF
an ordinary individual, but this plan
of jumping the afternoon of one day
and the morning of the next so as to
keep in line with the almanac is some
thing so ridiculous that none but sea-
faring man can appreciate it, or under
stand the necessity.-St. Louis Repub-
