PATHETIC FEATURE OF
MAYOR GAYNOR'S DEATH
Three Pet Dogs Persist in Their
Search for Traces Of Late Master.
Touching Appeals.

NEW YORK. September 23.-Pathetic
in connection with the death OF Mayor
Gaynor have been the actions Of his
three dogs on his country place at st.
James, Long Island. Ever since receipt
Of the news Of their masters death they
have shown that they realized something
untoward had happened to him. They
make frequent trips over the roads and
paths which the mayor was accustomed
to take on his long walks with his dogs
as companions.
The most persistent in his search for
traces Of his master il Ben. an Irish set
ter, that was Mr.. Gaynors favorite.
Frequently Ben has been seen during the
last week with his nose to the ground
trotting along In quest Of lost scent,
followed by the little Irish and Scotch
terriers.
On meeting old friends Of Mayor Gay
nor Ben stops and looks at them with
an expression they declare as IL begging
for some word from his master.

Whv Should Smoke Tuxedo?

TUXEDO is the logical smoke for million
i aires because it is impossible to buy
better tobacco.
Tuxedo is the logical smoke for the eco
nomical man because there are 10 pipefuls
in ten-cent tin making the Average cost
per pipeful only one-tonrth of a cent!
To buy cheaper tobacco means to get
less pleasure out of smoking, because it is
impossible to make tobacco as good as
Tuxedo at less than the Tuxedo price!

GAME LAWS DISCUSSED
WITH VIEW TO CHANGES
Representatives of South Car.
DINA Clubs at Department
of Agriculture.

What probably will be the last hearing
before the new game laws go into effect
was held at the Department of Agricul-
ture today. Representatives of South
Carolina to the number of twenty. in
Guiding state officials and members of
the cunning clubs. appeared before the
biological survey, requesting that the
ducking season be delayed so as to make
the open months December, January and
February. instead of as at present, Octo-
Der, November and December.
Argument by Gunners.
The argument advanced by the hunters
was that the last named season is toe
early. They said the ducks arrived In
the South Carolina waters tired and slug
gish. and needed a period of rest before
hunting began. They also stated that
the weather was warm and the birds did
not keep we'll. and that the vegetation
was SO rank that many of those shot
were lost. which would not be the case
later In the season.
No definite promises were made. but il
was stated that the arguments would be
carefully considered before the regula-
tons were presented to the President for
his signature.
DR.. Henry Hepshaw, chief Of the bio
logical survey, said In speaking of the
matter: I'VE have not much money to
operate with this year and have to rely
largely on the moral support and coop

where requests for changes to meet
local conditions seem reasonable we want
to comply with them, for we can do much
more where the sportsmen and the game
wardens of state are with us than
where they are either Indifferent or OPP
posed.
81 am glad to say that there seems to
be q general disposition to support the
new regulations. and we feel that we
have a majority Of the states and the
sportsmen with us. We probably will
