The fish and game law as passed
prohibits the taking of in excess Of
forty game fish by any one person IN
one day during the open season: n
defines pickerel and cat fish "a f,xh
whose taking is prohibited between
April l and May Is. It provides that
the taking Of fish by using lime. dyn.
amite. drugs. etc, shall be unlawful:
and also within 900 feet of fishway:
making this punishable 500 fne or
Imprisonment 1t adds cat 6sh 10
game fish. 1t allows certificates to
issue for taking buffalo, suckers, gars.
red horse. Quill beaks, ETC.. which prey
on game fish. Turtle doves are added
to the game birds whose taking h
prohibited during closed seasons. The
open season for squirrels is made to
apply In September instead of lane.
The Dill also exempts the game ward
en- and his deputies from liability for
destroying illegal fish and game sp-
paratus.

vote. II does not change the Iowa
laws In any particular, 1t is said by
those who back 1t, and the object OF
Its adoption is not to effect changes
In the law, but to eodify the law on
negotiable instruments and make the
same accessible and certain for the
business interests of the state. L has
been said that 1t abolishes days OF

The petition in tho much-taikedof
case of the state of Iowa against LAfe

him and collected during his term %

case was fled for the May term. when,
It Is expected it will come up for trial.

tells what his duties as such were.
and then goes on to allege that dur
ing 1899 and 1900 Young oyercharged
for certain work performed to the
amount of S4,63273, and drew the
money, and for this amount the state
asks for judgment.
The only bills of any Importance
chat have passed the legislature this
session have originated in the house.
ine most important Of these meas
ures is the Anderson road bill which
completely revolutionizes the system
OF road management in the state. TAX
ing the matter out of the hands OF
the local road supervisors and placing
1t In the hands of the township board
of trustees, who are required to EN-
ploy a superintendent of roads In each
township. Under the present system,
each township is divided up into sew
eral districts and the work on the road
is performed in a desultory manner
Without any system, the result being
that a great deal Of 1t is wasted. Un-,
der the plan which this bill provides
the work will all be zone by contract,
and for this purpose all of the taxes
will be paid in cash. with the single
exception of the poll tax, and the great
majority Of it will probably be paid in
cash. The people of the state do not
realize the Importance of this meas.
ure. although 1t has been given wide
publicity. 1t will undoubtedly result
In speedy improvement of the eoun-
try roads throughout the state. The
work will be done In a systematic
manner, and the money raised by
taxation will not be wasted. There
will no longer be any possibility Of
working out the road tax or pretend.

Metropolis, ILL.,, Oct. 4-The grand
Jury has returned an indictment
against Ike Brannon, Of East Metrop-
ons, for murder. Brsnnon killed a
fellow workman last spring by the
name Of will Ferrell while they were
st work at the box factory. Terrell
was struck over the head with a maui
handle and the skull fractured from
the effects Of which he died several
hours later.
At the coroner's inquest . great
many witnesses were examined and it
was recommended that Brannon be
held without bail to await tho action
Of the grand Jury. Circuit court was
in session at the time and Brannon
was admitted on bail, which he
promptly gave. At the following term
of court the grand jury inquired into
the case but did not return an indict-
ment. However the case WAS taken
up again this term and an indictment
was the result.

The public hiss placed the stamp Of
approval upon" Her Lord and Master, y
which will be presented here by Miss
Helen GRAVITY next Friday night at The
Kentucky. II is unusual to see q com
edy with a dignified story that so con-
tinually amuses as this does. Many
of the situationas are diverting, espe-
cislly those that put in contrast the
manners of the strongly differing class
es of persons involved while there is
no lack Of the serious interest that ali
good comedy must possess. Particu-
larly effective is the return Of the
young wife after her adventure,
against the wish Of her husband, who,
to enforce discipline has ordered the
doors Of his ancestral mansion locked
against her at midnight In the scene
of opposition that follows, Miss
GRAVITY and Mr.. Lionel Adams are
seen to excellent advantage; in fact
throughout the play they do the best
work that has been seen here this sea-
son.
