HUNTERS' LICENSE LAWS
All Licenses Expire on December 3I of
 Each Year.

All Licenses Expire on December 3I of
 Each Year.
 The extreme length of the session of the General Assembly, which delayed the publication of its acts, is responsi- ble for good deal of uncertainty on the part of hunters as to what their rights are. The new laws became ef- fective on October 1, the date on which hunting begins, and it is doubtful if the laws will be published by that time.
 One important change in the law re- garding the licensing of hunters lies in the fact that all licenses expire on De- cember 31 of each year AS a result of that it becomes apparent that the hunter who obtains license to-day will find it void on January 1, 1910. Under the present law the license was good for a year from the date of issue. A trifiing increase in the fee has been made and a further change has been made as to the amount of jurisdiction granted. Under the law which becomes effective on Oct ober the man who wants to hunt in any part of the ate must get license ill the town of which he is a resident.

Burial Benefits Of Typos.

Burial benefits paid by the I~nterna-
tional Typographical Union during the
past year amounted to $3S,1T5, which is
a smaller amount than has been paid
during any year since 1903, and repre-
scented twenty-nine less deaths than
during the year 1908. This sum repre-
sents only the amount paid by the IN
ternational union. Local unions pro-
vide additional benefits, and these
would double the whole amount paid
out as death benefits.
The average earnings Outing the year
1908 per member of the International
Typographical Union were 1897, which
may be considered a very high rate
compared with the earnings of men
employed in other trades.
In February Of next year the Inter
national Typographical Union will
take a referendum vote upon the estab-
fishing of a graded mortuary benefit
for its membership, the plan outlined al
the recent International convention
providing for a benefit ranging from
5000 to a member of five years stand
ing to $500 to a member of fifteen years
membership.
