Charleston, S. c., Nov. CARVING

ceptions of his trip. At the head OF

by militia organizations, he passed
through the principal business streets
under arches of brilliant electric
lights. Sidewalk throngs overfioWed

time During a sail to Fort Scheven

Mr. Taft witnessed an accident in
which he thought two men were
killed 1t turned out that one negro
lost an arm and another an eye. The
two men were firing a salute to the
president from a small cannon at the
water front. A premature explosion
occurred as the negro was ramm1ng
in charge of powder. The president
saw the man fly through the air and
fall into the river The ramrod shot
across the hull of the revenue cutter,
Yamacraw, on the deck of which the
president was standing. Mr.. Taft
called attention to the accident The
man in the water was rescued.
After the river trip, the president
participated in parade through the
streets and parks of Savannah, and
was greeted by practically the entire
population. He then had a spin over
the automobile course at an average
speed of 40 miles IN hour. On
straight away stretches, the speed of
the presidents car was 40 miles
Afterward he made a short dash at
the rate of SO miles an hour Return
ing to the city the president passed
in review of all the school children
With their shrill cries ringing in his
ears, he boarded the train for Charles

GILBERT CONSTITUTES
LEGISLATIVE bALK
SOLONS GET WIRES CROSSED
IN FIXING UP GAME
LAW.
DENS ONLY WITHIN OWN
JURISDICTION.
Madison, Nov. 6

Madison, Nov 6.
Constituting conflicting provisions o.
the game law relating to the catching
of beaver and otter, Attorney Genera
Frank l.. Gilbert has given to Game
Warden George w. Rickeman an
opinion that the law should be con
strued as though it had been enacted
in the following language:
1T shall be unlawful, as it is here
by prohibited, to take, catch, kill
hunt or pursue a beaver at any time
and otter between the first day OF
March and the 18th day of September
next succeeding"
The law as it was enacted forbids
the catching of beaver or otter at
any time and Immediately follows
with the injunction that otter shall
not be taken between the first day OF
March and the fifteenth day of Sep
TENDER next succeeding.
Attorney General Gilbert says that
it is plainly an error of the legisla-
ture and that the law shall be so con
strued that it will mean something.
The attorney general has also rem
dered an opinion to the effect that
sheriffs, deputy sheritfs, coroners, po-
lice officers, who under the provisions
of the fish and game laws are ex
officio fish and game wardens, are
such only within their official juris,
dictions. That is, they shall assist
the game wardens in the enforcement
of the law in their respective counties
only The attorney general says
that such officers have concurrent au-
thority with the regularly appointed
deputy game wardens within their re-
spective counties but not outside
