New York, Oct. 30.-Selim Mar rash and Habib Roukas, Syrian mer- chants, will be given a hearing be- fore United States Commissioner Shields. on charge of attempted smuggling. Bags of wheat and jars of preserved pistacho nuts consigned to the defendants were found by the customs inspectors to contain valu- able laces of Syrian make, valued at hundreds of dollars.
 For many months Marrish and Roukas have been offering for sale laces and handkerchiefs of Syrian manufacture at a price not much in excess of the duty charged on such articles. This aroused the suspicion of the customs officials, who made in- vestigations which resulted in the dis covery of the cOntraband articles.

WILD GAME AND
 FOWL PLENTIFUL
Hunters Claim Open Season Besin- ming November Will Furnish Best
 Sport in Years.

The game laws of Arkansas are such that it is believed the fish and game of this state will be protected for years to come. Time was when there was far more game than at present, but men who spend a por- ton of their time in the woods de- clare there is still sufficient game to satisfy the Arkansas hunters for years to come.
 Bears and deer are plentiful in al most all sections of the state, it is said, and can be found by hunters who know the art of deer or bear hunting. Foxes are more plentiful this year than for many years and in many sections of the state can be seen during the day running along ridges and skrtng the lumber camps. Wild fowl are plentiful and with the practically all wild fowls November there will be many expedition from the cities into th| country dis tricts.
 The game law provides that quail may be hunted from November to February l and turkeys from Septen- Der 1 to May 1. Prairie chickens may be killed only during the month of November No game killed in Arkan- sas may be shipped out of the state. The game law makes some proviS- ions regarding the killing of other wild fowls in certain counties of the state. From the nature of the law the month of November is made the real hunting month of the year and this month is always looked forward to by hunters with delight.
 Already many hunting expeditions have been arranged by sportsmen and it is expected that during the month of November practically every man who enjoys hunting will spend at least a few days at his favorite pastime Many of the state officials are DON arranging to spend two or
