SPORTSMAN WRATHY.
Frees His Mind About Game Commis-
 sioners and Game Laws.

X writer from nearby town fires the following shot at the game laws hunters and game protectors through the columns of a Hartford paper: Tn last weeks issue 1 see that MT. Carter has an article and by the reading of it see that he wants the hunters to re port to the town clerk the amount of game that eacn licensed hunter killed in the year. How about those who do not get a licenSe2 There are half of the hunters that do not get a license and half that would not report, and if they did, it would be a lie! You can not 1inl one honest hunter in q hum
 SThe first thing to do is to protect the game so that there will be some. thing to report on. There ought to be Q closed season for about three years, as the game is fast becoming exter- minated. If not protected soon, I hope it will be exterrninated. That will stop the shack hunter from shacking over every body's Iand."
 sThe hunters seem to think they own the game on everybody's land and can go anywhere they wish to, regardless of the owner. Every poor whelp owns a ferret and is fast exterminating the tinid rabbit. who hasn't sand enough to fight for himself The law seems to be protecting the hunter more than the game in these days. They have inn proved on all firearms ande very way to get the game. The hunters should be made to hunt with rnuzzle- loading shotauns instead of the fast loading type, and also do away with the fer ret SO the game will increase instead ] of diminish.
 As the law stands, l shall never get a license to hunt. and I will kill game at anytime of the year, for if they want the game exterminated we might as well all have a hand in it. Do the commissioners want to protect the game? Is not this job a political pull instead of game protection? It looks so, for they reappoint the same game

CHARTER REVISION.
What Warden Bulard Believes Should
 Be Aimed At.

Warden W. T. BulIard. who has filed, through the secretary of state. a. peti- tion to the next general assembly for a revision of the charter of the borough
 of Danielson. says that he is not ready
 yet to give out just what changes are contemplated, but that a charter is now being drafted that will not include many of the crude features of the
 present instrument. and that he hopes that it will be ready to present to the voters for their consideration at a spe- ciaI borough meeting which he thinks
 may be called in about a month. War den Bullard is of the opinion that a commission Of three men is sufficient to properly administer the affairs of the borough and that under such guid- auce concentrated action would be more certain. rapid and satisfactory most of the time.

 But Comforts for Poor.
 Generous praise is due the members of the committee that arranged for raising the fund and purchased and distributed Chrintmas dinners and oth- CT things to the poor of DanielsOn. Their work this year is regarded with general satisfaction and commended without dissent as one of the most worthy practices ever introduced in Danielson. The excellent service rem dered this year will earn big dividends in the form of increased subscriptions next year. The test of efficiency in the work has been well met. Besides the dinners distributed, the committee handled it's funds with such good judg- ment as to be able to provide shoes and stockings for numerous children.

He saw the animal was fatally injured and put it. out of it's misery. Early in the morning, while distributing papers to his customers, Frank l..

Deer tracks have been seen in narrow path leading from Long Brook avenue, across the Union cemetery and coming about the killing of the deer is the fact that MT. Stagg had hardly got the animal dressed and placed in Jew els ice box before game wardens from all parts of the State began to come into town, or send in messages by the telephone, and what is stranger still, each wanted a haunch of yenison! The meat will not be fit to eat for week, and then must be disposed of accord ing to law. Sheriff Stagg yesterday notified the State Game Warden of the facts and will await instructions from him.
