REGULATIONS
FOR HUNTERS
City Clerk Gets Cards
State Not Divided.

City Clerk LaROe is in receipt OF
printed cards defining cunning regu-
~lations for 1911. A new feature,
held to be beneficial to gunners gen
orally, is that the state is not divided
into districts this year. Seasons for
hunting open at one time through
out the state. AS for instance, the
season for hunting quail, rabbit,
squirrel, English ring-neck pheasant,
Hungarian partridge, prairie chick
en-, wild turkey and partridge opens
on November 1 in all parts of the
state and closes December 15. The
past few years the state was divided
In sections and the season opened
and closed at different times in the
various districts.
The cards are for distribution.
They are valuable to gunners, as
they show by can Of a diagram
when the respective hunting seasons
open and show extracts from the lat
est cunning laws. The cost of a
license for cunning is 81 and fifteen
cents additional for clerk fees.

Camp Wilson, Sea Girt, July u.s.
For almost forty-eight hours Horace
D. Groves, a private in Company X
of the Second Regiment Of New Jer-
sey, Plainfeld, has been missing
from the Sea Girt encampment. No
sight of him in Plainfield and no
trace of him at the tented city has
led the officers Of the Second Regi-
ment to send scouts in all parts of
the neighborhood securing for any
signs Of him or any word which
might lead to his whereabouts.
The last seen of Groves was on
Wednesday morning, when he was
shooting on the rife ranges, endea-
voring to qualify for sharpshooters'
honors. Since then no member has
seen or heard from him, and there
are fears in the company Of which he
is one that he has mel with foul play.

THE SLOGLESS SLOGAN.

The first flush of celebration being over the inanity of New Haven's new prize motto, "Old elms, but new ideas" appears to have sifted through. Manufacturers are refusing to put it on their letter heads. Mer- chants say it is too academic. The New Haven Union says the slogan is not adapted to the needs of a brisk commercial city, such as New Ha- ven intends to be-.
 Furthermore, as The Union points out, the phrase disparages the elms by the use of the word "but," for which the conjunction land" ought 70 have been substituted.
 Bridgeport has a~ slogan. It body knows what that means, wheth- sr found on a cartridge, a sewing machine, or baby.
 What would "Old elms, but new ldeas'' mean on an article of mer- chandise?
 The charge of academicity is no. necessarily fatal to the slogan, since New Haven is a college, more than | manufacturing town.
 Even so! Wouldn't it be better 10 make the slogan, "You wreck the theatre; we apologize. To this per haps might be added coat of arms showing a burning bridge gules, with
