Harness Cut by Vandal

George and Stanley Fox, two young white
men of near Buck Lodge. went to Boyd's
last Friday night on business and. while
stopping there a while. called at the house
of friend and paid their attention to a
young lady. They remained until about 8
O'Clock and when ready to 90 home STAN
ley went to his horse and buggy nearby
to get it. To his utter disgust and
amazement, as he began to unite his horse
he found his new set of harness entirely
cut from the horse, sharp edge knife be-
ing used. The traces. lines and back
straps we're severed in two. A buggy. re-
Gently bought by his brother George, had
the back and side curtains cut into shreds
by the miscreant or miscreants. An investi-
CATION followed, and one man was tracked
in the snow for some distance through a
field nearby, where it was lost in the coun-
try road.

For Protection of Fishes

An effort by the Game and Fish Protec-
tive Association of the District of Columbia
is being made toward the protection OF bass
and other fish in the waters of the Poto-
mac. Fish pirates, contrary to the Mary
land law. which controls the entire river
outside of the District limits have been
SEEMING the deep holes of the Chesapeake
and Ohio Canal above and below Harper S
Ferry since the water was drawn off.
The fish get into the holes of the canal
bed, and when the water is drawn they
remain At the request of the ASSOCIATION
United States Fish Commissioner Bowers
sent two gangs Of his men, under the orders
of Capt Harr0n, to seine these fish last
month and place them in the waters OF
the Potomac They found on their arrival
at the canal outlet and the holes that they
had been preceded and the largest and
best fish taken.
A resident of LoudOn county wrote the as
sociation's secretary that he had seen man
from Montgomery county vending fish in
Leesbure, Va. He said that the man had
several tubs of bass weighing from one to
three pounds each The man told the sec
rotary. DIR. W. P Young, that he had nearly
700 pounds of the bass.
1t is the purpose of the association to in
terest every angler, so that such maraud
ing be stopped, and the fish put back int
the river for fishing in the spring. Severa
years ago similar effort was made, witt
the result that from $4,000 to 10000 fish
were returned to the Potomac. and excel
lent fishing followed the year after
The local association is preparing cir
cular to be sent to all the fish and gam
societies throughout the country askini
them to enlist the interest of their represen
tatives in Congress for the passage of bill
to establish ponds for the propagation 0
small-mouthed bass and for similar pur
poses.
Reports of the fish authorities for De
cember show that efforts along this line re
placed in the river the following: Small
mouth bass. 5000; large-mouth bass, 225
rock bass. 2,525; Dream, 1880; WaI
mouth bass. $50; white perch, 1850 vel
low perch, ESQ; smelt,. 10000; crappit

Senate Passes Knox Amendment for
Memorial.

After considerable debate in the United
States Senate last Friday, Mr.. Dicks reso-
luton, making February 18th, Lincoln's
centennial birthday anniversary a special
holiday, was adopted, but was so ampli-
fed and enlarged as to presage the COM
mencement of what ultimately will be a
magnificent memorial of some sort to the
former President.
| Soon after the resolution was called up,
Mr.. Knox offered an amendment directing
the War Department to have survey
made of highway, to be known as THE
Lincoln Way" between the national capt.
tai and Gettysburg. This amendment i'm
mediately divided the Senate on the ques-
ton of what would be the most fitting
character of memorial, and resulted in
several suggestions being made. In the
end the amendment of Mr.. Knox pre-
vailed.
81 want this resolution to mean some
thing" said Mr.. Knox. He opposed pro-
position of Senator Carriers merely COM
hitting Congress to the construction of
some suitable monument. This general
declaration is what we have been indulg
ing in for the memory of Lincoln for the
past 40 years, and think if the Ameri-
can people ever intend to do anything
more than talk about it there is no more
fitting time than the centennial of his
birth"
Senator Burkett declared that a real es-
tate speculation was involved in the pro-
position for a highway from Washington
to Gettysburg. He preferred public build
ing in Washington.
Senator Beveridge, approving the Knox
amendment. asserted that the proposition
was so transcendently grand as to forbid
any suggestion of real estate speculations.
Senator Carter advocated the construc-
ton of the Lincoln way" Senator Teller
opposed it, and Senator Wetmore advoca-
ted the adoption of the original resolution
without complications. Senator Lodge ia
vored the Lincoln way" and cautioned
Congress against delay.
Amendments by Mr.. McLauren, making
the road run to Manassas, and by Mr.. Ba-
con. to Richmond we're voted down.
Mr.. Bailey objected to the exercise of the
right of eminent domain by the Federal
government within State for purposes of
building highway. He pronounced it I'M
lawful Senator Aldrich reminded him
that the question could be met if ever the
government decided to build the highway
I'VE can cross that bridge when we reach
it," said Mr.. Aldrich.
The Knox amendment then was adopted
by vote of 46 to "a

The Potomac Pike Contract Stands.

On Tuesday last two opposing deleea.
tons from Potomac district, this county
appeared before the County Commissioners
in respect to the building of the pike from
Potomac to the Seven Locks, there con-
Meeting with the Conduit Road.
The building of the pike was let at con-
tract sometime ago by the County Com
missioners under the authority invested in
them by the local road law enacted at the
last session of the General Assembly of
Maryland, and the contractor has been on
the ground with his plant and force of
hands doing preparatory work in the course
of the winter for the opening of spring at
least month.
One delegation, headed by Mr. George
G. Bradley, Jr., and Attorney John A. Gar
rett, petitioned the Commissioners to re-
woke the contract and abandon the work,
and the other delegation, headed by
Messrs. Francis S. Kilgour and John Stone,
asked that the contract be allowed to
stand and the work carried to compile
ton.
The Commissioners decided that they
were powerless to annul the contract. They
stated that they had entered into the con-
tract on petition of the citizens of Poto-
mac district, strictly observing every pro-
vision of the law empowering them to
make the contract to build the pike and
notifying the petitioners of the extra tax
that they were to pay annually to meet
the bond issue for the purpose of raising
the money to build the road with, and
therefore the contract will stand.
Following are the most important para
graphs in the petition, which contains
$500 words:
THE citizens of the Tenth Election Po-
tomac) District do hereby petition your
honorable board. through their attorney
John A. Garrett. to pass an order whereby
the work that has been commenced on the
road leading from the Seven Locks to Poto-
mac will be abandoned and the contract
revoked.
Your petitioners respectfully represent
that they acted in ignorance as to the tax
able basis of said district and the high
rate of taxation that would prevail on ac-
count of the building of said road.
Your petitioners further aver that prac-
tically every other district in the county
is having roads built with State and cOun-
ty aid and without an extra tax being i'm
posed, and thereby feel that the citizens,
residents and taxpayers of Potomac are
victims of process of discrimination in
the matter of road building and being COM
PEELED to pay an exorbitant rate of taxa
ton greater by at least 81 cents than any
other district in said county"

Uniform Game and Fish Law.

In his instructions to the members of tn
newly appointed Fish and Game Law Com
mission, Governor Crothers has pointed gu
to this body that he expects them T.
agree upon uniform system of game AM
fish laws; that he expects system
revenue which may be applied to mor'
effective protection without becoming {
burden on the State treasury.
Concerning these instructions to the com
mission. the Governor said: Il first want
this body to consider the best means Of
giving Maryland uniform game and fish
law-one that will apply equally over the
State, and one that will prevent confusion
and various abuses.
AT present the game laws for each
county are in many respects different
they 90 into effect at different times they
prohibit different practices. and it is not
easy for the sportsman to understand what
he may or may not legally do.
I'VE need uniformity of the laws for
the protection of those classes of fowl,
fish and animals which need the aid of
the State. have named commissioners
from each county, so that they may confer
and agree upon these regulations, which
may apply equally and simultaneously
where there are no geographical reasons
for a diversity of laws.
AT present some counties are thrown
open early and the sportsmen and others
rush into them and then little later they
rush into other counties This places a
hardship OH some communities and they
should be relieved.
Then again, want plan worked out
whereby the sportsman and the hunter or
fisherman who hunts or fishes for living
can bear the burden of protecting the game
and fish which furnish him his sport or
his livelihood. He is the man who should
be most interested in this enforcement of
the law and is the one who gains most by
its enforcement. He should therefore be
willing to pay the cost.
81 would advocate small license tax to
be levied upon the hunter and sportsman.
In some counties there is such tax now,
but the State does not gain by this. and as
it is only local regulation, the money de-
rived is not always applied as it should.
There should be general law impos-
ing a license tax, the proceeds from which
should be used exclusively for the detec-
ton and prosecution of violators of the
game and fish laws. This is where the
money should 90. and hope the commits
sion will provide us with such a sum for
this purpose that not one cent will have to
be appropriated from the State treasury
for this purpose"
The commission is expected to meet in
a short time and begin its work on a new
system of fish and game regulations to be
submitted to the next General Assembly.

New Prices

The home management did not know until last evening that such a message had ben sent to the police. and be- lieyed the latter we7a looking for the child while the police in turn supposed the little girl was safe at the home.
 "It is said of Caroine that she was rather an incorrigible girl. and head strong, and doubtless it required lit tie persuasion on the part of her mother to secure her willingness to accompany her. Under the circum- stances escape was easy for there was no one to interfere. As to where the fugidves have gone, there Is no clue. It is not believed Mrs. Round tree would go back to Bisbee, where she is well known. and where the fact of the child being sent to the home is well known. The chances would be too great that her conduct would be made public and that she would be called before Judge Doan in contempt proceedings or on a charge of Kidnapping. It is believed therefore that she went in the oppo site direction and is possibly in Cali fornia."

MOVING HOSPITAL MAKES PROGRESS
SECTION IS PARTIALLY ON CARS AND WILL BE READY TO MOVE SOON

One section of the three remaining upon the site of the old Copper Queen hospital, is partially upon the cars waiting upon the E. P & S. W. side track to receive it. It will probably be ready to move by Tuesday, by which time another section will have also been loaded, to the new site of the institution near Lowell.
 When this has been accomplished it will leave but two small sections. comprising the operating rooms of the old building. te be removed to Lowell. With reasonable luck. it is the belief Of Superintendent Wood man of the Copper Queen. that this will be accomplished by the middle of
