TO SAVE THE GAME
'tQui Tam" Process for It's Preserva-
ton Suggested

To the Editor Of The Courant
AS stated by a recent correspond ent
in The Courart, "the game is fast be-
ing extermfnated." T.respassing hunt
ers often coming from distant towns
or from out OF the State, invade the
farmers fields and forests; wire fences
are cut young CATTLE sometimes shot
and other depredations committed.
The graceful squirrels are ruthlessly
slaughtered for sport and the hocka
of little quail. which have been cared
for by the farmer and looked upon al
most as pets by his children, are ex-
terminated by the invaders. It would
seem that during the hunting season
at least there should be one day in
seven when the wild creatures Of the
forest would be safe from their human
enemies. but the law which prohibits
shooting on Sunday in some localities
is dead letter
There Is no lack Of proper laws for
the protection of game in Connecticut,
to enforce Them In this respect the
game laws do not stand alone. Town
affairs seem to be less and less under
the control of the intelligent and con-
sentative men in the community. such
persons not as often as formerly hold
ing the town offices. In some towns
there are no qualified Justices who will
try cases and no grand jurors who will
prosecute. The successive Legisla-
lures which meet bfennially on Capitol
Hill enact SO many laws that it is
almost impossible for the person who
wishes to be law abiding to observe
all Of them. but these SoJons do not
give much consideration to the en-
forcement OF their enActments. In
their wisdom they have seen fit to
repeal most OF the "quf TAM actions
by which a penalty is given to an in
former. If the Legislature soon to
convene at the Capitol should enact
"That every person who violates any
Of the laws relating to hunting or the
killing Of game shall forfeit SIS to him
who shall prosecute therefor IT would
do more towards preventing illegal
hunting than new laws with no pro
vision for their enforcement Under
our system Of criminal laws where
prosecutions are not commenced by
complaining Witnesses as in some
states, "uuf tam" actions are useful
ana are almost the only means by
which some laws cam be enforced.

FASHIONS AND FADS

Evening coats are seen in every
style and description, with a prefer
ence in color for blacks, white, dull
blue or rose. Usually they are cut
On the loose kimono lines, and the fur
trimmings are in great elegance.
Stoles and muffs are made of rib
bon bands, alternating with fur or of
ribbon in trellis design, natter blue

the neck and comes only as far as the
waist There 1t is finished in a ros-

Ribbons were never more beautiful
nor more artistic than they are at

that as result Of their daintiness

ing hard to secure the colIege for that
town. said:
Connecticut, with a population of
over 100000. has no college devoted
exclusively to the higher education of
women The ultimate effectiveness Of
a college is largely governed by two
considerations: the location: and the
endowment.
'.An effective location requires prox-
unity to a city. Of such size and char
acter as to possess libraries of many
kinds; churches of many denomina-
tons; a highly developed state Of art,
music. literature. and dramatics; other
Institutions of learning for the inter
change of lecturers and teachers; ex-
tensive and varied financial and mer-
camille establishments; and a definitely
residential section having an orderly
and cultured population It is further
desirable that the site should be COM
manding. with rooms for growth. and
facilities for field and water sport
There should be secll1sion enough for
the maintenance of a community
which will never be emcroaohed upon
by any Objectionable element of
city's expansion. Other requisites are
accessibility. healthful air and sur
roalndings, a pure and abundant water
supply, good drainage. a congenfal

to an exceptional degree in the tn1ane-

obviously the suitable endowment
of a college is an absolute necessity.
The endowment must be created
through voluntary coGItTi buttons which
in the absence of alumnae, must come
from persons who. convinced that such
a college is needed and would be emil
nently useful. are able and willing to
come to it's support
SIT is juStifajble to assume that am
institution located in conformity to
the needs previously stated will be
one less advantageOCSfy situated. IT
Is therefore evident THAT a college in
the Immediate vicinity Of Hartford
will appeal to a larger number of pa

WASHINGTON. Mar 6.-Probably no other question before the recent con gress had so much real bitter feeling behind it as the question of the future disposition of the Alaska coal fields, and the fact that Representative Mon dell of Wyoming ecently referred to Delegate Wickersham on the floor of the house in such unusual language that fistic encounter immediately followed. may more properly be inter- preted as a breaking out of accumu- Itcd grievances on both sides, rather than the upshot of a moments contro- versy.
 It seems true, however that Mir. wickersham actually made marked misstatement of facts in regard to the issuance by Secretary Ballinger Of large numbers of final receipts for AL aska coal lands since the instigation of the Baliinger Pinchot investigation, and that MT. Monden would have been entirely justified in disputing the dele gates statement had he used more temperate language.
