COMMISSION CALLS
The GAME LAWS A
CONFUSING PATCH
Ask Committee to Revise and
important to Sportsmen.

TRENTON, Dec. 19.-The State Fish
and Game Commission in it's report TO
the Governor for the fiscal ear ending
October 81 says:
1.-THE game laws in many instances
are the result of patch upon patch,
containing much that is confusing, and
in the interest of a clearer understand
ing of the same by the masses and the
actual intent of the Legislature, we
would recommend that a commission
be appointed to make a revision inc
coditcation."
1t is the intention of the commission
to have a bill introduced in the incom-
ing Legislature TO provide for a small
resident license fee, One object is the
licensing OF all unners whether resi-
dents or non-residents of the State.
Not only do they believe hat it will
prove a source of revenue to the State,
but Will go a long Way toward protect
ing game of all kinds. The commits
sioners say that the people of the State
are awakening to the necessity of bird
and fish protec,icn for both agricul-
tural and food values, and they promise
their best efforts to accomplish this
result.
The report criticises the amendment
to the tatutes regulating the shooting
of rabbits by dividing the State into
two districts. Much confusion was &C.
casioned during the cunning season
just passed.
In part the report says: ut seems
settled that the birds of our country,
in their feeding on rapidly multiplying
insect life which attacks vegetation,
are closely related to the production
of the farm and garden, almost equally
witt rain and sunshine. If this be
true, then not only vegetables and
meats, but even our clothing and life
are depending upon the policing of the
country by insectivorous birds.
1.-The alarm on this subject is not
imaginary. nee while pigeons flew in
great locks, resembling clouds and sold
in New Jersey at fifty cents a dozen,
it Is now declared that ornithologists
will pay large amounts of money for
a single pair dead or alive. S. r.
Morse, State curator, reports that he
is unable to secure a single specimen
for the State Museum, after years OF
effort"
Regarding the criticism of the law
fixing the season in North Jersey at
October 10, SO as to allow the pursuit
of woodcock, the report states that 1t
is confined chiefly to counties abutting
the dividing line. If the two seasons
will increase the supply of game food
in the State, the report says, these
criticisms fail.
The commission remarks about the
difficulty in getting quail from other
States and say hat ring-neck pheasant
and Hungarian partridge seem to be
the best substitutes. They advise the
establishment of a game farm where
yearly there could be raised from
5000 to 5000 pheasants. and this out
put liberated in the spring would mean
by fall from $4,000 to so. 900 birds. A
limit of a bag of five birds a day for
these pheasants is urged.

for Daughter.

A few hours after making a pathetic
plea in the First Criminal Court for
tho return of his little daughter, which
his dying wifelhad given away on her
death-bed, James w. Reiss, a motor
man on a Newark Elizabeth trolley
car, who was nervous and sleepless, ran
his car into a man crossing the tracks
in Broad street. near Washington Park,
inf1icting injuries from Which the man
may die.
Michael Schwartz, a confectioner at
271 Central avenue, was crossing Broad
street early today when he was struck
by the trolley car. When picked up he
was unconscious, and was hurried to
the City Hospital, where the doctors
said he had sustained a fracture of the
skull and would probably die.
Reiss declared that he did not see
Schwartz until it was too late to stop
the car, and hat he believed that he
stepped out from behind a car going in
the opposite direction.
Reiss, who had to work all night,
had been summoned to court early yes
terday and had been inScourt most of
the day, trying to get possession of his
little daughter, Madeline. On her death
bed a year ago his wife had called her
dearest friend. her ~school-day chun,
Mrs. Edward Isertram, of Morton and
West streets, to her and had given her
little Madeline. She said she wanted
her to take and keep Madeline as
though she were her own child.
Reiss married again and started a
home at 243 Bank street. Then he tried
to get Madeline. But Mrs. Bertram
would not give her up, and then Relss

did she go the fun length of the slide,
and not on her feet, either, but the
circumstances were such that she was
Inundated. Then she put ashes on the

Tit tug Canistel. liheled -four months
ago, stripped of everything portable

The splendid little craft has been ly-

four months. A few days before the
notices of attachment were pasted Upon
her it was the proud boast of her own
iers that she was the swiftest INT
strongest towing vessel of her class
that ever passed through the Kill Won
kull.
When the Federal authorities tied
her up at dock here she was stripped
down to the bare boards, and apprais-
ers declared that she would not bring
more than $10O in the open market.
although her original cost was nearly
100 times this sum.
There began an investigation imme-
diately. 1t was discovered that every
valve, fitting, brass ornament, pipe and
fixture on the vessel had been packed
into a truck and sent away. Two loads
were necessary. Even the screws were
taken from certain portions of her
anatomy, and only the nails, the paint
And the boards were left.

sands of dollars, eliminated the in

docks declare they were awakened by
the sound of n swiftly driven Wagon

from that day to this, just as they
were found. Next Thursday they will
be sold with the boat.
