caddo's Judges to Preside Here.


There has been yet anotllef Judicial
district shake-up Is, enough Of q
jolt to slightly effect the group of par
ishes in the northwest corner Of the
state. It has been found, that Judge
]. E. Reynolds, of Arcadia, would be
orerhurdened with judicial duties if
continuing to preside over the courts
of Bienville, Claiborne. Webster and
Bossier parishes, 20 the Supreme Court
| has relieved the situation by taking
Bossier from the Judges quota Of par
ishes and. for the time being, grouping
Bossier with Caddo Parish And that
means that the three Caddo Parish
judges will from time to time preside
over the sessions of Bossier District
Court.
1t is likely that the above arrange
nent will hold good for only a short
time, so the reporter is Informed by
Clerk of Court Jas. M. Henderson. As
the term for which Judge Robert Rob-
erts, T., OF Minden was elected to pre-
side over the courts Of Webster and
Bossier does not expire until some time
during 1925, and as the new constitu-
tional provision making one district of
Caddo and Bossier will not become
effective until the Judges term expires,
1t is likely he will soon again be pre-
siding over the courts OF the two par
ishes, as he Is only acting as extra
judge on the Court Of Appeals bench :
to assist In clearing up q congested
calendar.
| The three presiding judges in Caddo
Parish are Judges r. r. Mills, J. III,
Stephens and T. r. Bell. Judge Mills
will be here on the Goth to convene q
civil term OF Bossier District Court
/ To conform to the Caddo Parish rul
ing, August and September will be the
/ judges vacation months. It is also
likely that the old arrangement, cali
ing for criminal terms of Bossier Dis
trict Court during January and July
will become effective later on.

Sheriff Adair After Poachers.

TO All Whom 1t May Concern:
A number of complaints have re-
Gently come to the Sheriff's Office re
garding fragrant violations OF the law
in the catching of fish from Bodcau
and other fishing streams Of Bossier
Parish.
The law provides as follows: It is
unlawful to catch game fish with any
thing except rod and line. 1t Is uIl-
lawful to sell or exchange game fish in
any manner So those who are caught
will be punished as the law directs.
The law further provides that it Is un-
lawful to operate seines or nets of amy
kind, except in q navigable stream over
40 feet in width, and then the mesh Of
the seine or net must be over three
inches, and a permit, or license, from
the State Game Commissioner must be
first procured.
Now, 1t Is clearly my duty to look
after this matter. So am offering a
reward of 500 for evidence that will
lead to the conviction Of any one (er
more) who wilfully violates any Of the
laws pertaining to the protection OF
the fish,. So want to ask one and all
to take warning and not violate or per-
NIT any one else to violate any Of our
fish laws. For IT Is law and must be
observed. take this method to save
You money and trouble. Respectfully,
J.. F. ADAIR,
Sheriff, Bossier Parish, Louisiana.
