general impression in the state that
some change has been made in the
game laws. In some instances 1t is
stated that no birds are now protected,
and would be very glad If you would
make it known through the columns of
your paper that there has been no
change made in the bird, game and fish
laws Of this state except two very mi
nor amendments concerning the season
in Lexington county and making close
season for the opossum. The Audubon
society will shortly have printed copies
of all of the bird, game and fish laws

all parties that violations Of the laws
will be prosecuted to the fullest extent.

Fire In Meckenburg.
Charlotte Observer: The barn Of Mr..
j. r. Walker, who is among the most
substantial citizens Of upper Provi-
dence was burned to the ground yes
terday morning about 3 O'Clock. Two
mules, four head of cattle, a quantity OF
corn and prOvender and a valuable two
horse wagon were consumed in the
flames. There was no insurance on the
building and the value of the goods de- |
stroyed equals the loss to their owner.
The fire was discovered between and
o'clock, the alarm was given and hard |
work was done to extinguish the fire, |
but to no avail. No tracks were found |
near the building, but the owner thinks
the fire was OF incendiary origin. There
is no apparent connection between this
fire which might have been accidental
and the Steele Creek epidemic which
ceased as soon as a deranged negro wo-
man had been removed to an asylum.
This is the first fire in the county in
some little time
