Front Street,
A CURIOUS PROCLAMATION.

GULFPORT, Miss, March 3f.-N.
v. Boddie, supervisor of the census, had
a curious document this morning in the
form of Chinese proclamation issued
to the Chinese people in this country
explaining the purpose of the United
States census and calculated to allay
any fears or suspicious they might have
regarding the census taker when he
visits them on or after April 18th.
The proclamation, which is in Chinese
characters, is issued by Ii Yung Yen,
his Imperial Chinese majesty's consul
general at the port of San Francisco,
and by Yang Yu Ying, his imperial
majesty's Chinese consul at New York,
and is to the effect that the purpose oi
the census. has nothing to do with taxes

JUSTICE BREWER DIES SUDDENLY.

/ David Josiah Brewer, associate justice
of the supreme court of the United
States, died Monday night at 1880
O'Clock as the result of stroke of ap-
ploplexy. His death followed within a
minute or two before he could be carried
to his bed. Mrs. Brewer was with him
when the end came. Justice Brewer
was 70 years old. His death was alto
gether unexpected. Although he had
not been feeling well for the past few
days, the aged jurist was up and out to-
day, apparently in the best of health
and spirits. He was in equally good
spirits at dinner and spent the evening
in reading.
Shortly after 10 o'clock he retired to
his room, and within a few minutes Mrs.
Brewer heard a heavy fall and went to
investigate the cause. She found her
husband prone upon the floor of the
bath room. He did not regain con-
sciousness and died before physician :,
hastily summoned, could reach the
| house.
Justice Brewer came to the supreme
court of the United States from the
| federal court in Kansas. He was th e
second oldest member of the court, Ju S.
tice Harlan only being his senior. H
was regarded as the most democrat ic Of
all the members of the court, most affa-
BILE, approachable and accommod ating.
He was the one man on the bench wh o
had proof copies of his opinions pre-
pared for the newspapers, and this e
did consistently.
Another characteristic of the dead
iurist was that he never took any of the
| time of the court or the public in an =
nouncing his opinion. He reached the
conclusion probably many years ago
that the audience in the courtroom was
so extremely limited that it was pure
waste of time to read long opinion S
there. He would give only in few
words his conclusions and then han
down the proof sheets of his opin ion,
always completely arranged.
Judge Brewer essentially was West
ern man, and his sympathies were al
ways with the West. He dealt largely
in railroad corporations and, indie ed,
with corporations generally, and he will
be missed immensely, in the opinion of
| the court, on the momentous que5 tions
concerning the Standard Oil and Am er-
lean Tobacco cases now under consider
alton.
Justice Brewers death raises a seriou S
question as to the action of the co urt
regarding the Standard Oil and Ameri-
can Tobacco suits, and it is not impr OBJ
able that the cases will have to be re-
tried, since there now remain but Sc ven
justices to pass upon them, Justice
Moody not having participated in the
trials by reason of continued illness.

Mayor.
Secretary.

The city attorney having been re-
quested to file written opinion as to
the validity of such an ordinance, the
following was received and read and is
herewith made part of the minutes:
Bay ST. Louis, Miss,
March IA, 1910.
To the Honorable Board of Mayor and
Aldermen of the City of Bay ST..
Louis, Mississippi.
Gentlemen!
In pursuance to your request that W e
investigate and render our opinion, S
city attorneys, as to the validity of an
ordinance relative to the operation of
motion picture theatres within pre-
scribed limits, said ordinance being
hereunto attached, we have the honor to
report that the validity of the ordinance
depends, in our opinion, entirely upon
its reasonableness, which is question
of law, taken in the light of the circum-
stances of the particular case.
The reasonableness of this ordinance
cannot be conclusively passed upon by
your board, but, in the last analysis,
must be adjudicated by the courts. AS
stated above, whether or not an ordi-
nance is reasonable, and therefore valid,
depends upon the circumstances of each
case. We do not believe that the ordi-
nance in question will be sustained by
the courts, for the reason that it is op-
pressive and restrictive in its operation,
because it does not regulate the opera
ton of these theatres, but prohibits
them entirely within limited districts of
the city.
Very respectfully,
MCDONALD & MARSHALL,
City Attorneys.
On motion, duly seconded and car
ried, the ordinance was rejected.
There being no further business ap-
pearing, the Board adjourned to meet
ing in course.

GAME LAWS OF MISSISSIPPI.
List of the Game and Expiration of Hunting
Season Given for Benefit of Sportsmen.

For the benefit of its readers and in
compliance with the request OF some OF
its friends, the Biloxi Herald gives be-
low a resume of the State game law. 1t
has been stated that the public is not SC
we'll informed as to this as it should be.
and publication of the part of the law
may be d warning to those who are in
the habit of violating the game laws
with impunity, while it will give desired
information to those who wish to comply
with the law.
The game law of the State of Missis-
sippi declares game to be the property
of the State, and it is from that stand
point that the law is drawn.
Section states "that it shall be un-
lawful for any person to shoot, wound,
iniure, kill, catch or pursue with such
intent in any year any of the following
named birds, fowls or animals between
the dates set forth and opposite their
names:
Wild turkey between May and Janu-
ary 1.
Quail or partridge March l and No
vember /.
| Doves between March 1 and August l..
Deer and bear between March | and
November 10.
Swan, geese, brant, river and sea
duck, rail (mud hem, coots (poule
d'eau), chorooka, tatlers, plover, gros-
bee, cedar birds and robins from March
to September 1.
Section 4 states that it shall be un-
lawful for any person to kill more tina n
twenty of any one kind of the birds
mentioned, migratory doves excepted
or to kill more than one deer in any one
day, or more than five deer in any one
season, and at no time shall it be lawful
to kill spotted fawn or doe or wild tur
key hen.
1t is unlawful also to catch, snare,
trap or net any of the game birds or
animals mentioned, but any minor un-
der the age of sixteen years may trap
birds on the premises of his parents or
next of kin.
1t is unlawful to ship game out of the
State, and any game shipped with in the
State must be marked with the name of
the consignor and consignee and with
an itemized statement of the number OF
birds or animals contained therein.
Non-residents must procure license
from the sheriff if they wish to hunt.
The fee is SO to the county and SO to
the State. A penalty is provided for
non compliance.
The board of supervisors in each
county may appoint a game warden, but
no provision is made for his pay except
that he is to receive fifty per cent of the
fine levied in each violation.
1t is unlawful to offer gam for sale
in any manner. This provision of the
law covers the serving of game in restau-
rants and hotels, which may not be don e
in the manner in which other foods are
offered on the bill of fare, that is, in
such way as to constitute sale. One
may take his own game to a restauran mt
and have it cooked and served, but tn e
restaurant or hotel keeper cannot offe r
game for sale on the bill of fare. The
penalty for this is fine of S25 or i'm
prisonment for thirty days or both.
Land owners may hunt on their own
land in season not prohibited and may
permit nonresident relatives or friends
| to hunt with them.

A Case Of Infanticide.

Word was brought to town on
Wednesday of last week that a
girl by the name of johanna Ger
ken had thrown q new born baby
in a we'll on the Pohler place,
about two miles from town. Es-
quire Habermacher and Consta-
BILE Strauss at once proceeded to
the spot and upon investigation
found the body of a full grown
girl baby in the well as stated.
A post norton examination was
held by DR.. G. L. Kopecly, who
decided that the babe was born
alive and was suffocated before
being thrown in the well.
The mother of the child, johanna
Gerken, had left the place, but
was followed and arrested by
Deputy Sheriff Earl Fry, She
acknowledged to the deed but
claimed that the child was dead
when thrown in the well and
stated that she did not know
what else TO do with it. She
waived an examining trial and
was bound over to the grand jury
in the sum of $1,000.
