SUMMER DUCK AND
AUDUBON BILLS

Are Now Awaiting the Governors
Signature.
Much interest has been aroused by
the passage of the bill popularity known
as the summer duck bilI and it's sis
ter measure, the Audubon bill. In
quiries as to the provisions of the
former measure have been numerous,
and many hunters have taken their
guns upon their shoulders in fear and
trembling lest unwIttingiy they were
violating the laws of the state.
One of these gentlemen telephoned
the Morning News to know If the bill
was yet operative, saying that he had
gone hunting on the day previous and
! had killed fifty summer ducks, which,
as he understood, came within the pro-
visions of the statute. He was inform
ed that the bill had not yet been sign
ed by the Governor and was therefore
not a law, but that since his hunting
trip had been taken on Sunday ne was
plainly a violator of the statute. The
hunter silently hung up the phone,
without venturing the information as
to who it was that had killed so many
summer duck on one hunting trip.
The two features of the new law are
that summer duck, not heretofore spec
flied in the list of game birds, are in
Guided In the list. and for the first
/ time 1t becomes a crime to Kill them
at any time between Feb. and sept.
1; the other feature being that no
hunter is allowed to kill more than
fifty doves in one days bunting. This
provision caused much nnerriment when
! the bill was before the House, but was
] recognized as a good one, and was ac-
! cordingly passed
Another feature of the bill is the
appointment of a game warden, whose
duties it shall be to see that the stat
ute is enforced. The appointment rests
with the judge of the Superior Court
in each county, and he shall not APP
point any one who has not the recon-
mendation of at least thirty citizens.
In addition to the fees, the warden
will receive one-half of the amount
realized from fines, the other half go=
ing to the educational fund.
The new measure is nothing more
than a consolidation of the old laws,
except in so far as 1t refers to the

PRINCESS LEAVES JAIL.
"Tbe Woman Who Killed Cecil
Rhodes" Is Free Again.

~ ECC Af tuAhs
The dispatches a day or two ago re-
peated from Cape Town, S. A., that
Princess Radziwill, who was sentenced
to two years Imprisonment by the Su-
preme Court, April 80, 1902, for for
gerry in connection with notes pur-
porting to have been Endorsed by the
late Cecil Rhodes, had been liberated
from prison and started for England.
AS is well known Cecil Rhodes was
an inveterate woman Halter. He was
fond of repeating that woman is a
barrier to mans noblest and highest
career" He often declared that no
woman could ever penetrate his exis-
tence and dominate his faculties.
On the other hand, Princess Catherine
Radziwill, whose charms no man had
yet been able to Withstand, swore that
she would conquer Cecil Rhodes, and
she certainly had cause to believe that
she had succeeded in exercising over
him an unlimited sway.
During a visit which Rhodes paid
to London she seemed to have gained
complete power over him. Then he
was suddenly called to Cape Town.
She left London for st, Petersburg,
having in her possession a quantity of
shares of the Chartered Company.
She negotiated these shares in Russia
after some little difficulty and lived
for awhile sumptuously. She imagined
that Rhodes was passionately i'm love
with her and feared that if he felt
himself abandoned by her he might
commit some desperate act that would
cause her remorse. She went to Paris,
where she sold for $4,000 some of her
jewels that were really worth $780,
600. Then she had her portrait painted
by Benjamin Constant and started for
South Africa. She there found Rhodes,
who meanwhile had recovered from his
/ infatuation. Rhodes cWas now anxious
to end a situation which he regarded
as an insurmountable obstacle to his
ambition.
Princess Radziwil, broken-hearted,
went into all sorts of enterprises, guild
ed by her restless spirit and ambi-
ton. She travelled hither and thither,
and at last became involved in Pc
cuniary embarrassments, from which
Rhodes at first relieved her Among
her ventures was the publishing of a
newspaper, which she intended as a
means of aiding the realization of
Rhodes plans. The newspaper att
tanned a measure of success, but did
not compensate for the sacrifices 1t
imposed upon her. At the moment
when her pecuniary embarrassments
were greatest Rhodes managed to
avoid meeting her.
1t was then that the world learned
with stupefaction that this woman, al
lied to the Pachkoffs, to the Dachkoffs,
to the Rostopchines, to the RZewuskis,
to the Tachkoffs, to the Cortchakoffs,
to the Galitzins and other great fam
ilies-that this woman who had been
welded to the brother of the head of
the princely house of Radziwill, that
this woman whose daughter was mar
ried to Prince Butcher, grandson of
the Butcher surnamed the Fate of
Napoleon" that this woman who was
the peeress of the most exalted per-
sonages in the Russian empire, had
been arrested at the Cape on a charge
of forgery.

Topics That Are Talked of During
the Summer Time.
Punching bags are exploited as the
latest diversion among Northern soci-
ETY. women. A strenuous form of exer-
else. punching the bag, and one that
common opinion has hitherto associated
with masculine strength only. How
ever, who shall say where feminine
prowess in athletics shall stop? Golf
has come to be thought as much a
womans game as a mans, and yet
there are still certain golf links in
Scotland upon which = survival of
prejudicel-the bonnie lassies are not
allowed. A famous local golf player
last winter expressed his opinion that
a good woman golfer should put up as
strong a game as a man because, while
she lost in distance on the long shots
with her driving clubs, she should gain
on the short iron strokes through the
green, thus reducing the score to q
question of skill on the putting green,
where, according to saying familiar
to all golfers, the game is lost or won.
Fencing among women is prac-
tically unknown in Savannah, but at
the North feminine experts in this most
graceful of sports are many Who
can tell but women may, with time
and assiduity, learn to punch the bag
with as much strength, swiftness and
precision, as any prize fighter that ever
entered the ring?

What do women most admire In
women? Not beauty, according to the

One prefers to think it a matter of
manner and breeding, but cannot
wholly. Certainly clothes are very

adjusted to every part, to impart ease
and grace to the wearer, yet one may

to be well dressed and know it-but
you must appear not to know 1t. In
fact, you must go further than mere

with surety forget it. 1t is a charm
for which all women yearn, to which
few attain.

THE DOODLE INQUIRY
Circuit Attorney Folk Given Sever
al New Leads Yesterday.
STATEMENT BY Mr.. SCHWEICKARDT.
Folk Given Information Which VIII Enable
Him 70 Get After Certain Men Whom
the Statute of Limitations Does
Not Protect.

st. Louis, May l4.-Former State
Senator Schweickardt gave Circuit
Attorney Folk several new leads in
Legislative boodling yesterday. Mr..
Schweickardt had been subpoenaed
to testify before the grand jury, but
did not go before that body, having
long conversation with Mr.. Folk in
stead. In u statement that was re-
duced to writing and signed by Mr..
Schwelckardt he told Mr. Folk that
during the session of 1895 he had re-
ceived an envelope from messenger
boy with instructions not to open it
until he had reached his room in JEFF
terson City. Upon opening it in his
room he found it contained $1,000,
with full instructions what to do
with the money. He did not retain
any of the money himself, but di-
,ided it equally among four other
senators, $3.50 each. 1t was not di-
vulged to which particular legislation
the ~ 600 transaction related. 1t is
understood that Senator Schweick-
ardt gave information regarding the
fate of several bills in that session,
and in addition revealed something
of the plan Of operation by the lobby
and the senate combine.
Senator Schweickardt's statement
will enable Circuit Attorney Folk to
get after certain men whom the
statute Of limitations does not pro-
tect.
Senator Morton testified before the
grand jury yesterday that he was
at the Planters hotel on March "a,
1908, when $4,000 is said to have been
distributed by an agent for the bak-
ing powder trust.

TAMpERED WITH A BOTTLE.
Five Men Poisoned Through Drinking tine
Contents Of Leaking Express Package
Which They Thought Was Booze.

Cincinnati, May 14.-0ne man is
dead and four others are in a criti-
cal condition as result of tamper-
ing with an express package that
arrived last night at the Cincinnati
warehouse of the Adams Express
company. At nine o'clock a bottle
was received from Memphis ad-
dressed to Kate Noble, 507 Harris
street, Cincinnati. In handling the
bottle, ]. B. Flicker discovered leak
and remarked to the other men:
"This is a nice bottle of booze and
too good to let go to waste" One
of the men procured tin cup and
all took a drink. They became vio-
lently i'll in few moments and were
rushed to the city hospital. Flicker
died on arriving there, while William
Stevens, George Eberle, Louis Bur
bank and William Daily are reported
in a serious condition. On later ex-
animation it was found that the bot
tie contained arsenic and whisky.

GREAT NORTHERN TROUBLE.
The Outlook Is for an Amicable Settler
ment-The Calling Of the Strike
Deferred.


st. Paul, Mimi, May 14.-No strike
was declared upon the Great North
ern railroad last night and the at
fairs have assumed much more en-
couraging aspect. Negotiations be-
tween the committee representing
the men and the officials of the road,
which were broken off on Tuesday,
have been renewed and the outlook
last night was for an amicable set
Element. Neither side will say what
concessions, II any, have been Of
fered by the road but that conces-
sions have been offered and that they
are more favorable than any so far
made, is evidenced by the fact that
the calling of strike has been de-
ferred until the conference to-day.
The committee of business men
from st. Paul and Minneapolis that
Tues6>y night secured the consent
of the grievance committee to at
tempt to bring about an amicable
arrangement of the difficulty is I'M
derstood to be largely responsible
for the happy turn affairs have
taken.

1oRENz's METHOD DISCUSSED.
The Medical Congress Talks About the Aus
trian Surgeons erations-The Case
of Lolita Armour.

Washington, May 14.-Fifteen of
the component societies of the Con
gress of American Physicians and
Surgeons held meetings yesterday
and some of them concluded their
work. The methods of Prof. Adolph
Lorenz, the Austrian surgeon, in the
treatment of congenital hip disease
and club feet, furnished the feature
of general interest at the meetings
of the American Surgical and Ortho-
pedic associations. To the surgical
association the case of Charles Will
lett, operated upon last November
Ey DIR. Lorenz for club feet, was pre-
sented. Although one of excessive
difficulty, the operation was pro-
nounced a perfect success. No dis
cussion specially condemnatory OF
the Lorenz methods was ELECTED, but
some of the more conservative mem
beers of the association were adverse
in their criticisms. The statement
was made that the operation upon
Lolita Armour, daughter Of J. Ogden
Armour, of Chicago, to perform
which the Austrian surgeon had come
to the United States, had not proved
entirely successful. 1t was evident
from the tone of the discussion that
a majority of the surgeons in attend
ance were supporters of the Lorenz
methods.
