GAME LAWS
Plan to Prohibit Spring Shooting
for the Preservation of
Game

Pierre. Nov. 5. -Genersl prohibition
of spring shooting of wild fowl, and
the sale of game, is 10 be the founda-
toin of the campaign of the National
Association of Game and Fish commits
%sioners, is outlined bv the Recommended
tions of the special committee appoint
ed at Denver. Game Warden Bancroft
of this state was one Of the general
committee selected to work ont a com
prehensive plan for securing greater
uniformity in state game laws.
The committee after consideration
finds it impossible to draw one law
which would meet the needs Of all
the states of the union, but they make
general recommendations, that in the
drafting of game laws, a permissive
policy, such as prevails in Colorado
and New York, he followed; that local
legislation be reduced to a minimum,
and the broadcast possible powers be
conferred up)n state authorities to
provided when necessary; after due
notice and hearing, special protection
for certain kinds of game to meet the
needs of special occasions; that game
laws be made as simple as possible, and
that laws for protection of fish be
kept separate from the general laws.
In regard to administration the com
mittee recon mends the Wisconsin sys-
tenn of merit promotion under a gener-
al state warden system, aud the II oro,gh
divorcing of the game department
frcm politics.
In regard to the shooting season,
they recommend universal prohibition
of spring shooting of migratory birds;
that SO far as possible the opening dates
of the hunting season in adjoining
states be made uniform; that the
open seasons for prairie chicken should
not exceed thirty days; that plover,
killdere and sandpiper be removed
from the game list and given protection
at all seasons; that swans and sandhill
cranes be removed from the game list
and protected.
In regard to big game they recon-.
mend protection for does and fawns Of
deer, with no shooting allowed except
for a limited season, and then for
bucks only. That elk and antelope
be protected absolutely.
They recommend mandatory license
in all states, that propagation of game
and fish be encouraged and shat game
commissioners and wardens be EN-
powered to arrange for game refugees
on private and state lands. And that
cooperation between national and
state authorities be carried as far as
possible in game protection.

London Graphic: ! stood in a great
dormitory, so dimly lighted that until
a few minutes had passed my eyes were
muffied by the darkness. 1 held my
breath, struggling against a feeling of
sickness. The moist warmth of many
human bodies in a heated room closed
about me, so that for q moment l felt
a little faint. AS my eyes pierced the
veil of the dim twilight j saw that /
was in a long room which was one
side of a gallery built round an open
shaft in a great hall. Below me were
three other galleries, and at the bot
tom was the floor space of the build
ing. On that floor, and in each of
the galleries, ranged side by side,
without an inch of space between
them, was a large number of black
wooden boxes looking like open collins.
And in each of these cofiEs lay a liv-
ing man. | was in the dormitory of

noise of some great animal snoring in

berous silence was broken by a thin,
hacking cough. Then, as if a signal
had been given, a %concourse of queer
noises rose up at me. A man sneezed
violently three times. Somebody's
bronchial tubes began to play a piping
melody, ending with a gasp. A con-
vulsive sudder shook one of the collins
close to where stood. A man began
to snore with a trumpet nose. From
the floor below then came up a long,
.quivering sigh, as though a soul had
been released from the agony Of the
flesh.
Strange, horrible, gobbling laughter,
like the chuckle of witches, came
from one of the wooden boxes, which
heaved mirthfully in the gloom and
then was still. Somebody was cough
ing himself to death. An awful rest-
lessness stirred all these ~sleepers in the
black collins. Then, as though an
other signal had been given, silence
settled upon them again. lasting IN
