THE CHICKENS MAY BE SHOT.
August the 18th. but Not Day Earlier
The Law IN the Case

August the 18th. but Not IA Day Earlier
The Law in the Case.
So much has been said concerning
the expiration of the chicken law as to
whether it expires Aug. 10 or Sept. i,
that the Argus-Leader has looked up
the law thoroughly Oh the subject and
is of the opinion that the birds can be
shot on the 18th. The Argus-Leader
says:
"Sportsmen might as we'll commence
shooting chickens on August l5 as to
wait till September Let. In fact there
seems to be nothing in the law or about
the conscience of some men that will
prevent them from hunting chickens at
all times OF the year. 1t is true that
these men could not, probably, make a
very great shooting, unless they did
shoot the birds on the nest, but just the
same, it is not thought good form to do
SO. The game law passed by the legis-
lature of 1897 fixed the time for killing
prairie chickens, grouse, etc, at be-
tween the first day of September and
the first day of January. In other
words the law was out on Septembe Der
1st. This is the law found in the COM
piled laws. The legislature of 1890
amended the 'S7 law so as to read
August 18th instead of September lst,
at the same time making other unim-
portant changes enough to make it an
entirely new law, published in full un-
der the title AN act to amend an act,
etc. Up to the close OF the year 1893
this was the killing law of the state
governing the killing of prairie chick
cas-. The legislature of 1893, however,
attempted to change the law again and
passed an act with that intention, but
instead of amending the '93 law which
was then in force, amended the old S9
law-the same features that bad been
practically repealed by the amend
ment adopted in 1890. The '93 amend
ment contemplated fixing the close
season at September lst. the same as
the old 81 law, but as they amended a
law that had already been killed by q
subsequent law, they really amended
nothing, hence made made no change
in the law as far as the amendment is
concerned. But there is another
feature that furnishes nice point that
is not so easily disposed of. The '93
amendment had the usual repeating
clause attached to it, which reads
All acts or parts OF acts in conflict
with this act are hereby repealed" !"
The construction put on this by the
attorneys who we have consulted diff
ers. Some say that this clause under
the peculiar circumstances repeals the
80 law, and it is the only feature of the
'93 amendment that holds good. If this
be true, there is no law in this state at
the present time governing the killing
of prairie chickens, as the 80 law
practically repealed the old law. But
others contend that, as the '93 amend
ment amended nothing and was thero-
fore in itself nothing, there was moth
nothing, hence the 80 law, which fixes
the date at August 18th, is still in force
and effect. This is as near the con-
dition we are in as we are able to tell
it,,

Self-Sacrinco,

You perhaps have travelled on 80
crooked road that the rear car has
been met by the engine. but probably
no one else in Maine has had such an
other experience as RangIey guide
lately enjoyed. The guide, while
working on log drive. fell into the
water. He struggled at the bottom
for while and finally got up and,
grasping big log held on for life.
The current was 40 swift that it car
ried his body under the log and his
feet stuck out Of the water on the
other side. Just as comrade was
about to grasp him by tie shoulders
he gasped. looked at his own feet
pityingly and said to his rescuer:
"Don' rnInd me. Save that fellow
that's in head first!"-Phillips (Me.)

Eccentric Registering.

1t is generally believed that the

The books prove that the bearded

CO 1cealments regarding age also.

tered every two years, and in tile
natural cour'e OF things. each sue

ages Of those registered.
This is long way from being the
case. Ar inspect ion o: the books
discloses uniqua and surprising irreg-
ularities. Some ages advance two
or three years between two books and
then recede two or three between
the next two. Others jump forward
four or five years, stay there for a
while and then skip back a half a
dozen. A third class reach a fixed
aye and stick at it permanently, Just
