RECORD.
HIDE CROP IS BEAUTIFUL
Already The Furs Are Coming in, And
Are Being Graded According to
QuaIity-No Standard of Prices
As Yet.

The fur market promises to be even
better this year than for any former
year. Last year the yield and prices
were enormous and the year before
the trade through this section was so
large and the prices so good that pa
pers throughout the United States and
England commented on the enormous
amount of fur business transacted in
Columbia.
Already the yield on skunks, minks
and rats is far in advance of that Of
1908 and the prices are ten to twenty
five per cent better. The yield and
prices on o'possums, coons and foxes
is the same as that of last year.
In talking with one of the local fur
dealers Saturday it was learned
that the quality of the fur this season
is far superior to that of last year and
especially is this so with the skunks
and minks. The mink is getting scarce
in this section, but occasionally one is
caught and the fur brings a handsome
price. There seems to be no fixed
price on the furs this season as they
are being bought entirely on the quail
ty, thickness, length and texture of
the fur.

ON
SERIOUS CHARGE
j. A. BAKER ALLEGED TO HAVE
ATTEMPTED CRIMINAL
ASSAULT.

J. A. Baker, a prominent farmer and
respected citizen was arrested late
Saturday afternoon on warrant
charging attempted criminal assault
upon Mrs. Younger, a daughter of
Tom Davis. He was carried before
Esq. Fariss and held in the sum of
81 900, the bond being easily made.
The Baker and Davis families live
near each other on the Bear Greek
pike and it is alleged that Mr. Baker
attempted to throw his arms around
Mrs. Younger, who is said to have
fought him off, her screams attracting
the attention of members of her fam
lily. Mrs. Younger was married some
thing over a year ago, but is now
living apart from her husband. She
has child a few months old.
Mr.. Baker, who was in town today,

HUNTING SEASON
FORMALLY OPENS ON
MONDAY MORNING
TIME ROLLS AROUND FOR The
SLAUGHTER or FESTIVE
QUAIL.
i RITTEN PERMISSION REQUIRED
Partridge Crop The Heaviest in Many
Years, According 70 the Dope Of
Those Who know-Training Bird
Dogs.

The open hunting season in Maury
county began Monday. and from that
time until the first day Of next March
the sportsman can shoot down the
juicy quail without fear or conse-
quence, provided he keeps within the
bounds of the statutes, which are
more or less stringent.
Under the terms of the game law
the partridge can be hunted only by
those having written permission from
the owner of the land. The law is so
stringent that it provides for the ar
rest and conviction of those hunting
with oral permission, even if the own
er of the land is standing in the very
presence of the officer and states that
he has given the necessary consent.
However, there is a way for the men
with the gun to be exempt from OBJ
tanning written instead of oral permits
sion. He can fatten the pockets of
the game warden with three dollars
and be relieved of the necessity of
keeping his pockets stuffed with auto
graphs
There is a limit to the number that
can be killed. Only thirty can fall to
the daily credit of any one marksman,
and these must not be sold They
can be given away however. The law
infers that the average hunter can't
kill more than thirty from sunrise to
sunset, and places handicap upon
the expert.
According to those who know, the
quail crop this year is the heaviest
on record The fowls are fat and
plentiful, and it is expected that early
in the season the demand for shells
will be large Already the enthusiasts
are training their young bird dogs, and
are firing a few casual shots for prac-
tice Monday morning the boom OF
guns was heard from one end OF
the county to the other.

THE COW WINS
AT MT. PLEASANT
CITY VOTES AGAINST THE
STOCK LAW BY 1879
TO So.

The referendum election held Thurs
day to ascertain the will of the people
regarding the enactment by the city
fathers, of a law prohibiting cattle
from running at large in the corpora
tion resulted in a land slide for those
who do not want such law. So Mr..
and Mrs. Bovine may run wherever
they please in day time and do all the
dirt they can by breaking into and de-
stroving living vegetation, flowers
shrubbery and trees, etc, and at the
same time doing all the good for them
selves and their owner they can by
picking" for a living along our
streets, sidewalks, etc. keeping the
grass down. thus making it easier and
cheaper to clean the streets OF its
weeds and grass.
So the bovine family will now take
a new lease on life.
The vote stood 139 against and 6S
for.
