Incomplete Pension Rolls.

| W. w. Simonton of the pension
department of the auditors office
who has charge of the pension
distribution, makes an announce
/! ment this morning of the greatest
Importance to pensioners who
were on the roll last year, Nh
Slmonton states that the clerks
of the various counties, IN making
out their pension rolls for the
next distribution, have, in many
instances, sent in only the names
Of the new pension applicants
and have failed to include in
their lists the names of all pen
sioners who drew pensions last
year and who are still living and
eligible to draw for the coming
year. The new pension roll will
be made up on October l, and the
pension departments compelled
to make up the new roll from the
lists of pensioners sent in by the
clerks. He cannot add to the
lists, and where the lists fail to
show all the pensioners who drew
last year and Whoare still entitled
to draw, theselastyear pensioners
will be dropped from the roll.
Mr. Simonton therefore advises
that the clerks who have failed to
include the last year pensioners
send in supplemental or ad-
ditional lists, including all who
drew last year and are still
eligible There remains only
about fifteen more days in which
these corrections cam be made,
and Mr. Simonton is very anxious
to have on the next roll all the
pensioners who are entitled to
draw.

VIOLATED GAME LAWS.
Louis Fritz Arrested by Tennessee Author.
tiles For Shipping Fish.

The following account of the
arrest of Louis Fritz and bis
operations is taken from We'd
nesday's Commercial Appeal
Fritz, it will be remembered, has
been before the courts of this
county for the same offence.
The deputy state game warden,
acting under the authority vested
in him by the state game law.
passed at the last session of the
legislature, yesterday arrested
Louis Fritz, fish merchant for sein-
ing north Horn Lake. The arrest
caused much comment in sport
ing circles as it is the first arrest
that has been effected in this
county under the new law.
The defendant to the warrant
is a fish merchant whose place of
business is on Front street. Fritz
claims that he owns all Of North
Lake and that he has a right to
do as he pleases with his own
property.
Mr. Sims claims otherwise. He
says that he found that Mr. Fritz
was using seine which extended
several miles in length and that
it had to be dragged ashore by
the assistance of mules. He also
found that he was Systematically
seining North Lake and that many
fish were in this way destroyed
He states that he notified Mr.
Fritz to desist and that Fritz told
him he would do just as he pleas
ed because the lake belonged to
him. The offense was repeated
and without waiting for any ad-
ditional explanation the warrant
Was sworn out and served. Fritz
waived examination in the mag
istrate's court aud the warrants
were sent to the grand jury.
Deputy Game Warden Sims
will appear in person before the
grand jury and urge the indict-
ment of Fritz on the ground that
he has repeatedly violated the
game laws Of the state. In the
event that the indictment is re.
turned he will also prosecute the
defendant in the criminal court.
Fritz has been seining North
Lake for many years, and, it is
said supplies the large markets
east with game fish and the can
ming factories of the west with
buffalo and gar fish as substitutes
for salmon.
