Violating the Game Law.

We learn of several violations of the
law having been perpetrated against
the killing of deer. The bluff, some
eight miles north of the city and ada
cent to the st. Francis river, is a fav-
ored locality for the deer to congregate
when In distress, caused by high water
In the bottom on the opposite side of
the river. The bluff is a portion of
Crowley's ridge; across the river from
1t, and in the overlooked district lies IA
strip of high land which is the last to
succumb TO the encroachment of the
flood. Naturally all classes of animals
congregate at this point for safety from
their terrifying water. When
the rising water dispute their right of
possession to this last spot of refuge,
then the unfortunate and starved out
animals, from instinct, plunge into the
river and make for the bluff AS a last
resort and often to be met with load
of buckshot or Winchester ball. just as
they have reached the gates of the city
of refuge.
Why this is so at this season of the
year, is accounted for possibly from Il
desire to violate the law; for surely no
sportsman would be guilty of such cold
blooded and heartless murder. The
law of this stata prohibits the killing
of deer from the first of February to
the first Of August. Tile fine is from
SO to $40, half OF which goes to the in
former. IT the poor animals were
Killed for their meat, lord help the ones
who ate it. 1t is well known fact
that from the time deer gets into
trouble till it gets out and composed, it
neither eats or drinks. A few hours
In this state produces IA fever in the
animal, which leads to emac;aiion and
a complication Of diseases which only
an inspector of meats with proper APP

We have long looked for something
in this line to happen ut our sister
town, and it gives us pleasure to know
that the poor, defenseless deer that are
seeking refuge from the terrors OF the
overflow, at least have some frienda
now and then. Aside from violating
the law, a great sin is committed by
the killing deer at this season, very
soon the does will bring forth their

be more cruel aud heartless than the
murder of these little ones. We hope

In his talk to the credit men" the
other day James G. Cannon, vice-presi-
dent of the Fourth national bank of
New York, spoke of something that
credit men" frequently speak of. This
is the sad fact that the rich and those
who can easily pay their bills are usu-
ally the slowest to do it. 1t would be a
surprise to his audience, Mr. Cannon
said, to learn the names of those stand
ing high in business and social circles
who are dilatory in paying their per-
sonal bills. A representative merchant
of New York had lately expressed to
him his inability to understand why so
many rich people allowed their bills to
run so eternally slow" If the mer-
chant protests these debtors usually af-
feet to feel very much insulted and
quite generally transfer their patron
age to another store-often without set
Ting the long-due balance at the other.
They cannot apparently bring them
selves to realize, says Mr.. Cannon, that
a debt contracted In this way is a Just
one. He gave few cases that had
come under his own observation. One
was where a poor ,dressmaker had
worked $3.50 worth for wealthy wo-
man who paid $50 and then went on a
long European trip, not paying the re-
naming $500 until her return. In that
time the poor woman had to default on
her house rent and other obligations,
and not only suffered humiliation her.
self, but of course had to visit trouble
upon others she was owing, Another
case was that of a butcher doing a
large business who had as a customer
one of the very SWEETEST" families in
New York. This familys account kept
accommodating, the occasional payments,
leisurely made, not even sutficing to
prevent the balance from increasing.
until the butcher, out of patience and
in alarm, timidly intimated that a COM
plete settlement was desirable. There
upon the wealthy debtor became very
much offended, repudiated the whole
debt and went over to another butcher,
still keeping up style and no doubt
continuing to roll up bills with other
Dealers
Probably one of the things that make
it so hard for the rich man to get into
the Kingdom Of Heaven is his "slow-
pay habit.

happen is quite enough for now and

In the affair, for though she was three
and half lengths behind Cornell at the
