f5At:&9 Selectman Gibney Complains About Delay on Turnpike Bridge-McNIa- hon Has Laugh on Remonstrants- Bradbury filling Suit.


 Determined that the killing of birds in violation of the game laws shall be stopped, Judge George G. Griswold s this morning fined Hurlburt E. Hub bard of AIeriden $10 and costs in the town court for shooting a Hungarian pheasant in Berlin Saturday after noon. The total assessment amounted to s25, which included the game war den's fee of $1o.
 Hubbard was defended by Attorney < Cornelius J. Danaher of Meriden and the case was conducted for the state by Prosecutor William H." Gibney. Deputy Game Warden John c. Heck Ter of the Silver. City related the cir stances concerning the arrest of Hub bard He said that within the past few days he has been receiving nu- merous complaints about the promis- Scuous manner in which hunters arc handling their guns. although the sea- son does not cp:n until October.
 Saturday aftcrHocn Heckler was on a tour of inspection in the vicinity of the Peat Works pond when his at tcntion was attracted by shooting. After tracing the direction of the firing he came upon Hubbard with 8 rife :n his hand. Upon examining the ~ hunters galnebaS he discovered the pheasant and at once placed the man under arrest.
 Lawyer Danaher asked for clemen- cy for his client, saying that the ac- cused pleaded guilty. He explained tEat Hubbard was out shooting Wood- chucks when the pheasant suddenly arose from the bushes and the hunter Could not resist the temptation of fir ing. He asked for the imposition of light fine with the warning that should he ever trespass on the law again he should be dealt with more severely.
 Prosecutor Gibney summed up the case by arguing that Hubbard has been Q hunter for years and should have shown more respect for the laws He said that he had known the accused for years, having at one time gone on a fox hunting trip with him, He argued for a fine of no less than S10 and costs This was accepted by the court, Hubbard at once settling up.

WANT SOME
DRASTIC LAWS
{ n A c 7 T D
PRECEDENT BEFORE ACTION IS
TAKEN - ALL ARE REFERRED
TO CITY ATTORNEY.

Some of the laws the people of
this city want passed would make
Moses, the great law-giver, turn over
in his grave, should he hear them"
said Mayor Mullen last night when
he tabled a proposed ordinance that
was handed him for passage, framed
for the benefit of the Retailers as.
sociation, that if it were even re-
motely possible that it would ever
stand the test of the courts, would
build a wall around the city that
would forever preclude a stranger
from coming and doing business with
the citizens at all, even as representa-
tives of wholesale houses.
Another proposed ordinance, which
was not read, proposed to establish
fumigation plant, wherein all goods
brought to this city and offered for
sale as secondhand goods must be
fumigated by the city physician at a
charge that would make the venture
prohibited, and which would involve
the city in endless litigation should
anyone desire to fight it out in the
courts.
There is a disposition upon the part
of the city officials to protect the
local merchant in his business, but
they cannot see their way clear to
pass laws that will not have the back
ing of the constitution of the state,
or any precedent in any particular
For that reason, the whole matter
last night was referred to the city
attorney for his opinion and there
the matter will probably rest for the
time being.
