PUBLICATION OF BANS
BEFORE MARRIAGE VALID
Formulated Acts Now Proposed by
Commission On Uniform State
Laws.
(By Associated PreSs.)

Chattanooga, Tenn, AZ 27.-The
commission on uniform state laws,
now in conference in the federal
building had one of the most impor-
tant sessions in it's history. The prin-
cipal work of the session was the re-
port of the committee on marriage
and divorce including the second
tentative drafts of acts on the sub
jects of marriage and licenses to
marry and family desertion and non
support. These reports were pre-
pared under the direction of the COM
missioners of uniform state laws in
national conference The reports
were circulated for criticism and sug-
gestion. The conference received the
benefit of those made by prominent
jurists who were unable to attend.
1t is believed that the formulated
acts will be generally accepted by the
different state legislatures.

MAY REORGANIZE
HUNTING CLUB
Hattiesburg Sportsmen Want Protec-
ton for Game, Which is Said to
be Plentiful.

AS the time for the open hunting
season in Forrest county approaches,
local sportsmen have begun to take
notice of the fact that this county is
not protected by nonresident game
law, and it is probable that they will
take steps to protect The game of the
county by organizing themselves into
a hunting club, as was done last seas
on.
The counties of Perry and Lamar,
which adjoin Forrest, have laws which
forbid non-residents to hunt within
their limits, while sportsmen from
these counties may come into Forrest
and shoot quail to their hearts de-
sire. The state game law gives the
boards of supervisors authority to en-
act such laws for the protection of
game as they deem expedient, and
while local sportsmen do not censure
the people of Lamar and Perry coun-
ties for protecting their game, they do
not think it exactly square" for them
to come into Forrest county to hunt.
A movement to have a uniform
state game law enacted was originat-
ed in Hattiesburg last year, but the
measure was not presented to the leg
islature at its last session. A bill
was drawn at the suggestion of sew.
eral sportsmen of Forrest county, and
provided that the power to enact
laws on this subject be taken away
from the supervisors and every county
in the state be put under a uniform
state law.
The prospects for a bountiful crop
of quail and squirrels is said to be
unusually good this year, and Hatties
burg gunners are anticipating some
lively sport in the event the game car
be protected from outsiders

CONFEDERATE
in U. S. congress
Defeat of Capt. spight Marks Passing
of Last Confederate Veteran From
Lawmaking Body.
Special to The Netos.

Special to The Netos.
Jackson, Miss, Aug. 26.-If Captain
Spight is defeated for congress in the
Second district, and it looks as though
he is, it will mark the passing of the
last Confederate soldier from this
state as a member of the nations
lawmaking body.
Captain Spight was gallant sol
dier, and has been an able representa-
tive of his district in congress. He
was the only former warrior of 1S60-65
in congress from this state for sev-
eral years, and his defeat will place
the affairs Of the state, so far as con-
gress is concerned, entirely with the
younger generation.
Captain Spight is one Of the best
known public men in the state. He
has served the state and county in
various ways since the war, and was
conspicuous figure during the Pc
riod of reconstruction. AS a member
of congress he has worked hard and
faithfully, and his passing will bring
pang of regret to many.
Gen. James Gordon, also 2 confed-
crate, served short time as United
States senator between the death Of
Senator A. ]. McLaurin and the cleo
ton of Senator Percy, but Captain
Spight is the only old soldier of the
South who has been elected to 7on-
gress FOR several years.
The fight in his district was a hard
one, and many of his friends of the
past were loyal to him till the last.
