When a witness in an English court
the other day remarked that it was
necessary to sit on horses head when
he was down to keep him quiet the
judge replied: Nothing of the kind.
People don't seem to understand that
the only thing necessary is to get hold
of his ear and keep his nose up in the

Pigeon Law Constitutional,

The Supreme Court handed down a de-
clsion Yesterday holding the law of 1904.
which makes it a misdemeanor to use a
live pigeon, fowl or other bird to be used
Tor the purpose of target, or to be shot
at either for amusement or as a test of
skill in Workmanship, to be constitutional
and affirmed the judgment of the Burling-
ton County Court of Quarter Sessions
where Charles W. Davis and Rudolph F.
Harmed were convicted upon indictments
drawn upon said act. Justice Fort de-
llvered the opinions The syllabus of the
decision in the Davis case is:
l. The act entitled San Act for the protee-
ton of pigeons and other fowl and constitut-
ing the Violation of its provisions a misde-
meaner, is not in conflict with Art A. Sec Z
Par OF the State Constitution, which re,
cures that every law shall embrace but one
object and that shall be expressed in its title
III provision in the body of an act is not
embraced IN the title, and makes the body of
the act unconstitutional to that extent the
unconstitutional provision will be excised
ana the rest of the act Will be upheld if it ap-
pear that what remains is the primary object
of the legislature, and that ii would have
passed the act without the excised portion
5. II is not a curtailment OF the right of
properly 10 prevent a person from using his
animals or fowls as target. whether to be
snot at Tor amusement or as test or skill in
Workmanship.
4. Under the police power the Ieoislatnre
may prescribe how animals may be killed by
their owner in order that they may be used
TOT 1000 They may fix by statute the times,
places and manner of such killing By limit
ing the method or prescribing the manner of
killing, they do not infringe upon the rights
of property of the owner
In the case of Harmed who did not kin the
pigeon but shot at it. the decision is as follows:

case OF the state VS.. Davis, decided at the

cases is that the defendant In this case shot ut

Sporting Notes.

The game on High street grounds or
Saturday, will be with the strong Diamond
Field club, of Philadelphia. This team
played 10 inning game at Woodbury.
last Saturday.
The Mount Holly A. A. got an awful
bump on Saturday when Burlington came
over and did the home team up in great
shape. Vickery was in the box for Bur.
llngton and his speed was too much fol-
Mount Holly, which only got six hits.
while Burlington touched up Parkinson
for IL hits. A peculiar feature of the
game was that Vickery only had nine
strike outs and Parkinson had II. but the
hits off the latter were effective. Mount
Holly made but two runs In the third
inning Vickery hit one man and the next
one hit the ball. A wild pitch advanced
the two and well-placed hit over second
base brought the two runners in. Bur
lington scored IL runs
The game of base ball on Saturday will
probably result in the release of some of
the players. This will be well provided
better men are secured. No use trying to
run base ball team with poor PLAYERS.
Parkinson was released on Saturday night.
He admitted that he was not pitching as
well as he ought to for the money he got.
The base ball club that was to play at
Medford on Saturday cancelled the date
on Friday. A telephone message to the
manager of the Mount Holly 4. c. got
that team to go over and fill the date. OF
course the Mount Holly boys did not ex-
pect to win and they showed some grit in
going to certain defeat
Another racing programme has been
prepared for the Fair grounds. 1t will
take place on Friday, June 30. There
will be five classes and there is prospect
of good sport. Several MerchantVille
horses have already been entered There
will not be any admission fee, but a col
lection will be taken and after expenses
have been deducted the balance will be
given to the Burlington County Hospital.
The Hightstown Driving Association
Will hold its summer race meeting on Sat-
urday. The events will be 220 and $50
classes trot or pace for purses of 5000 each,
and minute class for a prize.

Can't Continue Commission.

Governor Stokes has made a discovery,
which it is believed, will save the state
about $40, 200 year. He has discovered
that there is no law for the continuation
OF the commission to promote the propa-
cation and growth of seed oysters, but
whether the discontinuance of the COM
mission will be a real benefit and saving
to the state is question upon which there
is likely to be no difference CT opinion
among the oystermen of New Jersey.
The legislature of 1895 passed an act to
promote the propagation and growth of
seed oysters, and to protect the natural
oyster seed grounds of the state. 1t d.
vided the seed grounds into six districts
and authorized the governor to ''appoint
commissioners to serve for term of three
years, to carry out the provisions of the
act. Under this provision the governor
did appoint several commissioners. and
when their terms expired in 1885, the
same identical law was passed again by
the legislature of that year.
Commissioners were appointed at that
time Tor another term of three years, and
again, In l9O2, for further term of three
although that year there was no legisla-
tion on the subject. 1t appeared to the
governor that the wording of the act,
the governor shall appoint commission
ers to serve for term of three years." did
not make the commission permanent, but
only for three years, for whenever an act
creates new Office or commission it ex-
pressly says there shall be or there is
hereby created the office or commission.
he was strengthened in this view by the
fact that the legislature of 1899 deemed it
necessary to pass the law again when the
three-year term of the commission ex-
pired.
The governor became of the opinion
that the commission died in 1902. when
its three-Year term expired, and that be-
cause the legislature of that year did not
enact the law to provide for its continue
ton, there was no authority for the ap-
polntment of commissioners then, and
none for making them now.
he had consultation with the attorney
general on the subject, and that official
agreed with him in the view he took of
the case and there will be no commission
to promote the propagation and growth of
OF seed oysters appointed this year, to
succeed those whose terms expired this
year.
On May 29i last, the governor announced
the successors to these men, but because
OF the discovery made, the appointees, all
OF whom but two were new men, will not
be commissioned.
The discovery of this condition of affairs
removes Capt. George s. Maxwell of this
county, who was among the recent en-
ployes.
