MUST HAVE HIS S. A DAY.
JUDGE RlSTlNE SERVES NOT
FOR GLORY.
The Big Man from Joplin Don't Be-
iieve In "0rand Stand Plays"
When they Come at
SIS Zach.

From the following from the Car
thage Press, il would seem that Judge
Ristine, representative of the western
district, seems to have mania for hav-
ing the county court to meet;
The adjourned session OF county court
Saturday, the date for which was agreed
to over protest from Judge Hickman,
resulted in little more Il an wordy
sparring match which lasted most OF
the day. Judge Hickman maintained
that the adjourned session of last Tues
day had proved utterly unnecessary and
had been set for that day for entirely in
sufficient grounds in the first place.
The:court had been in session but few
minutes anyway and for his part he
wished it made n part of the minutes Of
that day that he relinquished all claim
for his salary for that day. This was
done Judge Adkins also relinquished
his salary for that day and had it made
a part Of the records. He claimed that
the grounds on which the adjourned
session Of that day had been provided
had proved afterwards to be an insult.
cient reason. lie had however at that
meeting voted over Judge Hickman's
protest, ordering an estimate mPde by
the county surveyor for two more big
bridges in the wost part of the county,
an important enough action it would
seem, from any standpoint, even il it
of it.
This all came up first thing in conuec-
ton with the reading Of the minutes Of
the proceeding meeting. Judge Ristine
said he had earned his salary on that
day and he did not propose giving it just
for the opportunity to make Il grand
stand play"
From this on il was a warm days bus
mess, with little going on TO the min
utus. When court adjourned at night
it was to meet again this morning as
county board Of equalization 10 equaize
merchants taxes. BY law the members
of the board are allowed 81 per day.
But the court by adiourniug to this
morning as u court can collect g per
member for the days services. Judge
Hickman protested and suggested that
under such policy it was n pity to skip
Sunday and asked ironically Why not
book the court adjourned to Sunday
morning and then adiourned TO Monday.
What will become OF the question Of
the proposed new bridges is not known.
The surveyor cannot report his esti-
mates before the middle or end OF the

THE NEW MISSOURI GAME LAW.
Comments by Sporting Journal
Calling Attention TO its
Provisions,

A well known sporting journal, speak
ing OF Missouri, says: missouri hunt
ers should remember that a new game
law is now in force in that state and
they should make themselves acquairt-
ed with its provision II prohibits the
sale Of quail aud prairie chicken and also
prohibits the shipment Of the same from
one county to another. Local sentiment
in many parts of Missouri is strongly in
favor of this non shipment clause and
hunters should be careful what they un-
dertake. The slaughter by the game
dealers last year was frightful and there
b ing no restrictions on shipping, quail
were sent to the market 10y the hundreds
of thousands. This year things will be
different and we imagine the game hog
and market huuter in Missouri will have
trouble If they persist in their old meth
od."
