TO SAVE THE GAME BIRDS
IN GARRETT COUNTY
Representative Ashby Would Prohibit
Cunning for two Years.
GAME BIRDS BEING DIFFERENTIATED
Projected Measure, if 1t Becomes q
Law, Will Prove Sad Blow to LO-
cal Hunters, Who Take 4 Good
Living Shooting Game.

Ii bill that will be presented in the
Legislature next week by Representa-
tive Charles A. Ashby, of Garrett coun-
ty, become, law, for the next two years
there will not be heard the crack of a
rifle or the report of a fowling piece in
one Of the greatest game preserves in
the East. The mountain pot hunter will
be forced to seek other employment
while the men possessed of the real
sporting instinct will patiently await the
reopening of old time sport in forest
and field of Garrett county.
Mr.. Ashby, in outlining his bill SAID
that, unless some heroic measures are
applied to check the depletion of par
tridges, pheasants, wild turkeys and
other game in Garrett, it will be in a
few years little worth while to keep
either dog or gun. While the same
protest against the destruction of the
states great game supply is reported
from virtually every county of the state,
but few sections are disposed to take
such drastic measures to correct the
evil.
my idea is to have an absolutely
closed season to all cunning" said Mr..
Ashby Monday. Il remember mighty
well that few years ago wild turkeys
were so abundant in the Garrett county
mountains that one of the big birds,
bronzed, fat and tempting, could be
bought for seventy-five cents, while
now, in the face of the threatened ex-
tinction of the big tiocks, they sell for
from $l.50 to $500. The same is true
Of pheasants. Not many seasons ago
these toothsome birds were shipped
from Garrett county by the ton and
50 lin the local market at twenty-five
cents. Today they sell for 81 a piece
and are yearly growing scarcer. Some
thing must be done, and that promptly
or these fine game birds will be
doomed, consequently my bill will favor
shutting the lid down and absolutely
sealing it for two years.
The only way to make the measure
effective" asserted Mr. Ashby, 'is to
shut off all cunning, Just as certain
as men and boys are allowed to hunt for
rabbits or other game, just so sure will
turkeys, pheasants and the other fine
game fall a prey to their guns. Of
course, a less drastic law might have a
tendency to check the wholesale. sIaugh-
ter, but complete protection of the gam
ing sections for two full years is the only
way satisfactorily to remedy the evil
that threatens the extinction of game
in Garrett county"
Mr. Ashby's bill will, it is expected,
receive the earnest support of the legit-
innate sportsmen Of the mountain re-
gions of Western Maryland

REYNOLDS 4 FUGITIVE

his brother, who lives at Oakland. Reyn-
Odds and his wife boarded at the above
address with the parents Of Mrs. Reyn-
olds, and Mrs Reynolds is still with her
father and mother. She is nearly pros
trated. Reynolds father-in-law said to-
day that he believes the eX-poiceman
has left town.
When the case of Reynolds was called
in the Criminal Court today the indicted
man failed to respond to his name, and
Judge Harlan declared Reynolds bail of
$500 forfeited.
The mans bondsman vas Mr.. John
M. Parr, page of the First Branch City
Council 1t was rumGredi early this
morning that Reynolds had Jumped"
his bail, and no surprise was evidenced
either by the throng OF spectators who
crowded the courtroom or the States
officers when Reynolds failed to put in
appearance at the appointed time
Reynolds was to have been tried on
the charge of having burglarized the
store Of Sanders, George & Sons, 6 East
Lombard street, on on about October 10
last, while he was a member of the po-
lice force. On that date is was discov-
cred that three crates Of goods, valued
at about SIS, had been taken from the

til several days ago, when Captain Ward

wick the establishment of Sanders,
George &, Sons is located, learned the
name of hack driver who had been
seen taking the goods away from the
place.

Police Department fot about ve.years.

trail.
''The Police Department will direct
every energy to recapcure EX-Patrol-
man Reynolds, " said Marshall Farnan
this morning, Il will have descriptions
of him printed and will send them all
over the country. The fact that he once
wore the uniform will not deter the po-
lice and detectives from capturing him
if they can. In fact, know personally
and officially that the men are anxious
to recapture him, that he may be made
an example of. "
When asked now many detectives he
had detailed to try to capture Reynolds,
the Marshall replied: Every headquar-
ter detective, and, in fact, every man
on the force, for have already sent out
a general description Of him. l feel
pretty confident that he viii be rounded

 As we went down in the elevator the car stopped. A man and Q woman were waiting to be taken up. At the man I did not even glance, for his companion held my eyes. Such fierce, dark, passionate beauty I had never seen before, and my nerves were still tingling with the sight of it as left the building and turned westward to- ward my rooms.

A CONSTANT ANNOYANCE.

Half the nervousness. half the irri- liability that is so common in every day life, is really sickness, and in most cases a condition that accom- panies kidney trouble.

The irritation causes ner- vousness. irritability, headache. dizzy spells: makes you languid. unfit for work. and inclined to worry over trifies.

The Public Marv0Is
At tho Wonderful Cures That An Being Made bv pr. Horter and 7
 His New Method

pr Horter has built up very lareo practice in Waterbury.
 Every one praises his skill and marvels at his success, who have had his treatment. He makes no prepos- terous claims, but shows the results, Catarrh Is his great speciality. He cures even very bad cases that have been given up. Many people think they have deafness when 1t is only stopping up of the ears with en- tarrh. Many people are running down into consumptive's grave when the treatment of catarrh Is all they need.
 Nine out of ten people who have stomach. liver and bowel troubles have only internal catarrh, and near ly every case of kidney disease is ca. tarrhal. Most cases of female weak ness is due to catarrh of the pelvis and can be cured thoroughly.
 Dr Horter understands catarrh. He has made special life study of it in this country and in Eur0pes That Is why he cures when others do not know how to cure in this climate. Dr Horter knows how. You may consult him. any day at his office ST West Main street, near Willow street.

Clinton, Aug. To-day the investi-
eating committee of the grand lodge
of Iowa Odd Fellows reached Cam
anche, a small town down the river, to
look over the Town Country Club
house there, with the object Of decid-
ing whether or not the Odd Fellows OF
the state will purchase the property
and convert 1t into state home for
Odd Fellows orphans. There are sew
eral cities in Iowa after the state home
for orphans, but it is deemed likely
that Camanche will be chosen as the
location of the home.
The Town Country Club house
is built on the southern border of the
little town of Camanche, on the bank
of the Mississippi, and from its spa
cious verandah. a view up and down
the river for miles Is obtained. The
situation is superb, and the building
spacious and handsome. 1t was orig
nally built for club house, and
used for that purpose for several years
until Its final abandonment by the
wealthy Clin,ontes WHO had it con-
structed, and subsequent sale to Cam
anche parties. who now own it.

JONES SCORES FARMERS.
Says Those Around colfax Springs
Are Stinqy,

Colfax, Aug. 1.-THE largest crowd
of the Epworth league assembly greet
ed Sam Jones yesterday afternoon. He
started out by saying that Colfax had
the greatest natural resources OF any
town he had visited. He said: "You
have here the best water on EARTH but
your people don't seem to appreciate
it If you had two or more big mod
ern hotels that would accommodate
$500 people you would have them all
full. More people would come. They
won't come now because you can't
care for what you have You ought to
have a better place here than Saratoga.
You people ought to wake up and fix
up your town. Get to work and do
something. I will tell you what ails
you. You have too many stingy old
farmers in your town. They are afraid
to spend their money. If they would let
go of some of it it would pay them a
thousand fold.'
Speaking of women suffrage, he
said: II used to think that woman's
suffrage would cure the liquor question.
But any one that thinks that should
go to Denver for a week before election
and they would have all that tomfoo-
cry taken out of them. Colorado has
womens suffrage and more whisky to
the square mile than any other place
in the world. Women's suffrage won't
help temperance. Women go to the
polls and vote the way their husbands
do, Just democrats or republicans, and
that is the end of it"
