FISH AND GAME.

We find upon investigation that our
game, fish and oyster laws are en-
tirely disregarded, and in a short time
the game, fish and oysters in our
county will be entirely destroyed un-
less the laws regulating same are
rigidly enforced. We find further that
the law does not provide for the pay
ment OF a salary to a game and fish
warden, therefore, we have no officer
to enforce same. We would recon-
mend that the County Commissioners
appoint county police upon month
ly salary and under suitable regula-
tons, whose duty it shall be to en-
force our game, fish and oysters laws.

In our opinion, the country school
buildings are disgrace to the coun-
. ty, and we earnestly ask the board of
education to take such steps as will
remedy the condition that now exists.
This condition is the result of lack
OF attention on the part of those who
should attend TO these buildings. We
think it would be very much better

AN ISLAND REVOLT
coNVlcTs ON DEVILS ISLAND
TAKE DESPERATE MEASURES
TO SHOW RESENTMENT.

Paris, Jan. 22.-Several attempts at
revolt have lately been made by the
convicts at the French West Indian
penal settlements of DEVILS island and
Kourou, according to telegram from
Cayenne. The unrest is ascribed to
the conyicts' indignation at the use Of
corporal punishment
A party of six officials and wardens
were on their way frcm DEVILS Island
to suppress a disturbance at Kourou,
when all on board save the conyicts
who were rowing the boat were, ''by
maneuver hitherto unexplained" pre-
cipitated into the sea.
The convicts, masters of the boat
saved two women and two little girls
who were accompanying the officials.
The incident was witnessed from the
shore, and four wardens put out to
sea, fought the convicts, and regained
possession of the boat. The message
leaves it doubtful whether the con-
victs deliberately threw the officials
overheard or whether the latter were
drowned.
