Game Law is Said
to be Defective

One day last week Deputy State
Game Warden Schoenberger arrested
a mar by the name of Holmes who
had just came from Chicago a few
days prior to taking out a resident
hunting license in this county.
The state claimed that the man was
not a resident of South Dakota and
had no right under the law to hunt
In this state without first obtaining
A nonresident hunting license which
costs SIS.
The case was tried in municipal
court and Judge Myers held that in
asmuch as the game law did not
specify just how long a person would
be compelled to reside In the state
before being allowed the privilege of
hunting with a resident license. the
defendant should be acquitted.

Curious Pereui.ite. Of Royalty.

1t appears that by a curious statute
Of the realm the king Of Great Britain
and Ireland is entitled to every stur-
geon landed in the United Kingdom.
The king has also the right to the
head of every whale caught off the
coasts OF his kingdom.
The tail of the whale is the queens
p~erquisite. the object Of this curious
division being that her majesty shall
always be well supplied with whale
bone. although singularly enough. the
w%halebone is the kings half.
Among other strange perquisites Of
England's rulers are a pair Of white
