New Game Laws.

The new game laws of Geor-
gia include a number of fine
points that are calculated to trip
up the unwary.
No person is permitted to kill
more than forty doves or more
than fifteen quail in one day.
No one can kill any game for the
purpose of selling it except on
his own land, unless, Of course,
he obtains explicit permission to
hunt on the land of others. Pot
hunters,s' as those who kill game
for the market are generally
known, must pay license fee Of
SIS to the ordinary of the county
before they can do business. 1t
is strictly against the law to ship
any partridge or quail out OF the
state, no matter where or by
whom they are killed.
The law prohibits hunting
upon the lands Of another unless
the sportsman bears a written
permit from the owner.
Nov. LIST to March LIST is open
season for quail, partridge,
pheasant and wild turkey
Doves, marsh hens, and snipe may
be killed from July is to March
15,-Open season for summer
duck and wook cock, is from
Sept. LIST to Feb. 1st.-For deer
from Sept. LIST to Jan. LIST.
Game wardens are numerous
throughout the state, and almost
any planter is likely to prove to
be one, and make trouble for the
huntsman who overlooks or wan
tonly disregards the letter of
the law.

SUES TO RECOVER
$3175 ONzSTQCK DEAL

Difficulties arising from extensive OPP
eratiOns in mining stocks were brought
into the district court through a. suit
fled by George w. McMullen & Co.
yesterday. The plaintiff brings action
against the Duluth Real Estate & Stock
Exchange for $3,175, which sum he
claims he advanced on a purchase of
Calumet & ,Pittsburg development stock
which he made for the defendant last
year. ,
The suit is directed against Fred II
Merritt, who. has been doing business
under the firm name Of the Duluth
Real Estate & Stock Exchange. It is
alleged that the plaintiff, at the. re-
quest Of the defendant, in June Of last
year. purchased stock to the extent of
$6,153, and, as Merritt lacked ready
money at the time, agreed to advance
payment on the securities. The plain
tiff asserts that at various times after
the deal had been concluded he tried
to deliver the stock to Merritt. but
was not ready to accept it and asked
McMullen to hold it for, a short time,
In December the plaintiff, having
failed to deliver the stock to Merritt
sold it for 1898, the highest sum, he
says, that he was able to secure on it.
He asks judgment for the balance OF
the money advanced in the deal and
for expenses he has: incurred in at.
tempting to place the stock. An affi.
davit for garnishment proceedings was
filed yesterday, in which it is stated
that Merritt has an account with the
American Exchange bank of this city
The suit was filed for the plaintiff
through Afford & Hunt.

EVEI4ETH, Mimi, June -Four
hundred and fifty employees of
the Drake &: Stratton Stripping COM
pany, employed at the Fayal mine,
struck today, because of reduction of
10 cents in their wage scale, which
took effect this morning. Tonight the
entire body Of strikers marched through
! the principal streets of the village,
making threats of one kind and: anoth-
er, but the judgment of cooler heads
prevailed and the men soon dispersed.
/ No further attempts at violence are
feared, although the men say they will
not return to work at the new scale
and will prevent others from taking
their places. go. =.
L Superintendent G. II. Thompson Of
1.-The Drake e Stratton company was not
Esatsthe office today and the attitude OF
1.-THE onlpany toward The striking min
could s5n BE definitely learned.
The mem at the: ayaI mining office,
while they do not speak authoritative-
Sly, believe that the strike If prolonged
will simply: result, in closing down the
stripping work at the Fayal until next
spring.
Superintendent Trezona said today
that they had all the, ore uncovered
that would be needed for some time
| and there are hundreds Of thousands
the Fayal mine just now SO that the
part which is being stripped is not
urgently needed.
The striking men do not include
| the shovel workers, who suffered no
| reduction. but the dumpmen, laborers
and brakemen.-
All of the employees went to work this
morning, as usual, and worked for
about an hour. AT a. given signal work
| ceased and the men took up their
dinner pals and returned to their
! homes.
A guard of about so pickets has been
! posted about the works to prevent 9TH
ers from taking their places.
| The Drake & Stratton outfit here
consisted of four steam shovels, about
Is dinkies, and $50 men. Their con-
tract calls for the stripping of about
100000 cubic yards, but there is no

A TALK WITH 4 BEAR.

Continued from Fourth Page.) COW was near enough to be dangerous, the little bear was looking at her from a safe position in the crotch of a wild cherry tree The COW was a sensible creature, and did not make any useless threats, but kept her gaze on the inn pudent cub, who stared at her with a devil-may- expression on his little face. Presently, he seemed possessed of a desire to find out what she would do if he faced her, so he slid down the trunk, and went boldly to meet her as she advanced with lowered head. Just as she neared him, Jimmy. stood bolt upright on his little hind legs, and, 'squaring of" like prizefighter, swung for the jaw with left and right" in rapid succession, and landed twice. It was plainly a surprise for the COW, for she stepped back in a hurry, and before she could recover, Jimmy, with that peculiar sneering look of his, turned and .bolted up the tree again. drove the COW away, and we continued our walk.
 Soon we came out upon another road, and here we met a carriage with several occupants, including little girl, who, seeing Jimmy walking quietly along behind me, at once jumped out to embrace him. The little girl had on white stockings. and for some reason Jimmy took a great fancy to these. Ignoring the little girls efforts to make friends, he rushed at her ankles. and soon it was hard to tell which was bear and which was girl, they were so mixed up. But the cub was only playing, and the child was not afraid, so let them alone until the little girl was out of breath, and her stockings much nearer the shade of Jimrny's coat than they were when she arrived.
 But the next incident of the walk was not quite so amusing. A neighbor came driving along with 3, rnettlesome. young horse, and seeing the bear, drew up to have q better look at him. But the horse went suddenly wild with fear, and
