Changes Discussed by Warden Scott
Who Goes Over Amendments.
INFORMATION FOR sPoRTsMEN
Difference in Open Season for Feath-
cred Game Are the Most Marked
Among Alterations Made by the
Legislature.

The new game laws of the state are
, included in three bills passed by the
legislature. A summary of these
measures will be of interest to all
spOrtsmen, as we'll as any others who
in one way or another come into con
tact with this part of the code. Such
summary giving the points of diff
ference between the present law and
those now going into effect was given
by State Game Warden Scott in an
interview. He said:
Senate bill No 20 makes M
change from the old-or present
law, with these exceptions, that tur-
tie doves are added to the list of
game protected at all times and that
one may kill one mountain sheep a
season. The same open season pre-
walls under this bill in regaru to the
killing of elk, and 1t allows the kill
ing of two bull elk during that sea
sen, as the old law did.
I'm regard to killing deer and
Rocky Mountain goat, the open sea
son is established in the new bill as
from September l to December l. one
month shorter than has prevailed
heretofore. December is cut out
of the open season, as in that month
the snow is SO deep that the game
has not an opportunity to escape The
law in regard to killing mountain
sheep is the same. You are allowed
under the new act to kill one noun
tain sheep, three deer and one goat.
The present law forblas you killing
mountain sheep, but allows you to
kill six deer and six goats. Thus
mountain sheep is added to the list
OF game that may be killed, but the
kill of deer and goat is reduced.

RE chicken. fool hen, sage hen, phea-
SAINT and partridge begins August Is

birds. The present law allows the
killing of sage hens on August 1. and

Obituary..

Claude Alden Lines, son of John
Lines. deceased, and Eliza A. Lines,
was born in South Dakota, April Z,
1893, and departed this life February
25, 1908.
The story of his death is sad, in
deed. A sale was in progress near
the Pine Grove school, and during the
noon intermission, desiring to see the
crowd assembled, he ran upon an old
roof, lying in the back of the school
yard, with one edge projecting about
eight feet above the ground. In some
unknown manner he lost his footing,
and fell to the ice below, sustaining
injuries SO serious as to render him
unconscious. He was Immediately
removed to the school room, help
was sent for, the doctor summoned
everything possible was done for his
immediate relief. He fingered until
AIS p m. without having regained
consciousness, when he breathed his
last. shortly after the arrival of the
doctor. surrounded by his mother and
little sister and large number of
sympathizing friends.
Claude was an obedient and oblig-
ing child, delighting in the approba-
ton of his mother teacher and
friends, and ever watchful to tighten
the cares of his widowed mother. He
was greatly interested in his studies,
was bright pupil and well advanced
for one of his age A few weeks be-
fore his death he united with the NJ
E. church at Pine Grove.

were laid to rest to await the resur-
rection.

From his earthly home tonight,

Of joy so free and bright;
But We know his little spirit

And has only gone before us
To greet us by and by.

COMPLAIN OF SERVICE
AIMED AT LATE TRAINS ON
 WESTERN ROAD.
Citizens Between opelika and Mont gomery May Ask Railroad for Better Train Accommodation.
 Wreck at Fort Deposit.

A good deal of complaint as to train service has been made In the past few weeks by persons living on the line or the Western Railroad between Opellka and Montgomery.
 When the Western train due here at SEQ D m Is three or four hours late the peo- ple between Opelika and Montgomery who desire to reach this city on that train are compelled to either reach Montgom- cry at , or o'clock in the morning or wait until the next day.
 For the benefit of Atlanta people when ever the train is three or four hours late a first section always leaves Atlanta on time and runs as far as Opelika- When this train is six hours late first section leaves Atlanta on time running through to Montgomery. No train is run from Opelika to Montgomery, however, unless the train Is six hours late.
 Last night the train in question was four hours and thirty minutes late. reach- ing Montgomery at o'clock this morn ing and for a month or so past It has been between four and five hours late with pertinacious regularity.
 Several months ago 1t was announced that whenever this train was three hours late a first section would be run out of Atlanta reaching Montgomery on time. This plan 1t seems has been abandoned and now a first section is run to Mont gomery only when the train is six hours late.
 From the complaints that have been coming in from people along the line of the Western Railroad 1t is probable that the Commercial and Industrial Associa- ton and business men of Montgomery generally will take some action in the matter

ANSWER OF BILLING
FORMER BANKER DENIES THAT
 HE IS INSoLVENT.
He Files Reply in the United States to Petition Asking that He
 Be Declared a Bankrupt.

The answer of E. M. Billing. doing business as Josiah Morris X Co.,, invol- untary bankruptcy. filed against him In the United States District Court, was filed with the clerk of the court yester- day
 The answer denies that he is insolvent and moves the court to strike the clause in the petition showing him to be bankrupt
 The answer sets out as causes for the motion to strike. that the allegations are merely the conclusions of the pleader and that they are indefinite and uncertain: that the clause fails to set out the names of the several creditors to whom the alleged bankrupt made alleged preferred payments; that the clause falls to ln- form the alleged bankrupt to what issue he is called on to plead and that the clause fails to set out sufficient facts to enable the alleged bankrupt to join the issue.
 The petition was filed several weeks ago and yesterday was the day set down for the answer.
 Judge Thomas c. Jones. before whom the case Is to be tried. will not take up the matter at present. owing to the amount of pressing business now before the court. which has priority.
