CONVICTIONS REPORTED.
Wallace Gives Law In Reference To
Fishing.

Montgomery, June 4.-(Special. 1.-The de-
partment of game and fish has received
a report from Game Warden w. C. Daniel
of Tuskegee stating that six persons had
been convicted before Judge Milo Aber-
crombie for fishing in waters on the lands
of another without written permission and
of one conviction for dynamting for fish.
The game warden states that game and
fish are rapidly increasing in Macon coun-
ty under the law. Commissioner Wallace
today said:
"Section 1904 of the code provides that it
is unlawful for any person to fish in any
pond, pool, lake or other reservoir or body
of water wholly on the premises of an
other person without written permission
from the owner of same.
This section is intended to protect the
rights of citizens in their private
lakes or ponds, but does not In any sense
affect the rights of persons to fish in run
ming streams no permission being neces-
sary to fish in the running waters of this
state.
1.-The season is at hand when boys are
wont to catch young hooking birds and to
rob bird nests. Parents are cautioned to
warn their children that it is unlawful to
capture any bird in this state that is pro-
tected by law, and likewise it is mis-
demanor to take eggs from the nests of
birds. The insectivorous birds of this
state are the most valuable allies we have
of the farmers and agriculturists and the
practice of capturing the young and rob-
bling the old must be stopped"

Admission, June 4-(Special)-In a letter
to a member of the staff of the Admission
Star, DIR. T. w. Ayers, formerly of this
city, but now in charge of the Warren
Memorial hospital at Hwang- Hien, North
China, and lecturer at the Pekin Imperial
university, writes very interestingly OF
travel modes and official corruption in the
Middle Kingdom, his Letter being in part
as follows:
Il have just returned from 20 days
trip to the country. We went into Chao
Yuen and Laiyang counties, the greatest
distance from here being 241 Ii, or so miles.
] went from here to Laiyang in
'shentze' Ga kind of mule litter, but after
reaching there the travelling I did had to
be done In wheelbarrows one trip in this
way being 80 miles, we having gotten out
or reach of either cart or 'shentze,' and
I assure you that this was an experience
calculated to develop the virtues of Job.
On this trip 1 treated $40 persons.
ut is stated, though, that such ex-
perienees as these will soon be like
Mephistopheles' tail-time will have worn
them off. An English syndicate has Sc
cured the permission of the Chinese and

the Chinese having subscribed literally to
the enterprise.
while in Laiyang," continues DR..
Ayres "the district mandarin from Teng
Chow-fu came down in his sedan chair,
accompanied by retinue of soldiers and
servants. He was met about so miles
from the county mandarins. His trip in
was escorted into the city amid great
pomp and splendor The purpose of his
visit was to collect personal contributions
from the county mandarin. His trip in
cludes all of the counties in his jurisHc-
ton, and the subaltern who gives him
the greatest amount of money, will be
in highest favor with him in the future
and will be recommended by him to the
best appointment in his jurisdiction. The
county officials are changed every two
years, and no official holds an office in
his own district for a term longer than
that, and every time they are changed to

''Hwang- Hien had a visit this week
from the deified descendant of Confucius
He was also on visit to the county and
district mandarins for the purpose of re-
ceiving their contributions and homage,
both of which were given with the great
est liberality This practice has been kept

DR.. Ayers says that the Christian relig-
ion is making great progress in China,
CO persons having been admitted to the
Baptist church in Hwang Hien within the
past two months. Heathensm and super
stition are rapidly waning before the adj
vances of civilization and in proportion to
the march of civilization Christianity is
being embraced, or vice versa.
