wrote letter to his mother before the

was innocent of the crime and then said
good by. 1t was just seven minutes after
the fall which broke his neck that the

IN MEMORIAM

In sad but loving remembrance OF oul
nephew, Chance K. Cleaver, who de-
parted this life September 18th, 1903:
Chance, dear, you had to leave us
And we loved you, all, SO we'll,
But the way that Chances suffered
None but his own tongue could tell.
But he bore it so bravely,
Not murmur from him came
And the last word that lie uttered
Was for all to meet him in Heaven.
Just one month since last he parted
Friends may think the wound has
healed
But God only knows the sorrow
That's within our hearts concealed.
HIS AUNT.

THE CUNNING SEASON

Local lsportsmen are now getting ready
for the cunning season and the prospect
is for some sport. Birds will be compar-
atively scarce but rabbits promise to be
as abundant as ever. The season for
uuaik and rabbits will open November
the 18th. The United States Government
has issued an interesting bulletin entitled
'Game Laws 1905" It points out that
during the past year legislative sessions
we're held in Al States and Territories and
in all but two OF these changes were made
in the game laws. The closed season for
game in Delaware is recorded as follows !:
Squirrel (other than red and only in
Kent and New Castle Counties) and rab-
bit, from January LIST to November 18th
quail, partridge and pheasant from Jan
uary LIST to November 18th; dove, all the
year; reed bird, ortolan or rail, from Feb
ruary I'd to September 1st; duck Except
wood duck, goose, brant and swan, from
April 10Th to October lst. Since the con-
stitutionality OF the Connecticut law pro
hibiting export OF certain game was es-
tablished by the Supreme Court, in 1856
non export laws have been generally
adopted, ard at the present time nearly
every State prohibits the export of GER
tain kinds Of game. The laws Of Della
ware prohibit the export Of rabbit, quail,
partridge, woodcock, and non-residents
are also prohibited from shipping Wilson
or English snipe. Delaware imposes q
license fee OF S. for nonresident hunters,
the license being issued by the Delaware
Game Protective Association. For each
subsequent year the fee is 81.

The Illinois Central Railway Company
is experimenting with an engine of the
100 class in an attempt to utilize the
steam after it has passed through the
cylinders. II successful it would mean a
great saving of water and fuel, and the
off, ial figure an engine could run 100
miles further with a given amount of
water than they are now doing. The new
scheme provides for the return of the
steam back into the boiler, thus requiring
less water from the tank, and, OF course,
less coal to keep up steam.
