NEW YORK, April 16.-And SO,
out OF an old curiosity, I found my
self at the funeral Of an East Side
killer.
The killer had finally been kill
ed.
And now he was back home, back
10 the tenement that had been his
home, back among the neighbors
who had played with him when he
was a tot in the ghetto streets. back
again among the boys and girls OF
his childhood who had read with a
certain terror and awe Of his GRIM
inal escapades.
They had seen the newspapers
refer to him as Jack, the giant
killer" and they had linked this
ominous epithet with that other
Jack-the boy Jack who had played
ball with them down at the corner.
South and east Of Second ave-
nue., they love their funerals and
their weddings. The savings Of a
lifetime will 80 into the grim pa
geantry or death. The folk for
blocks around will turn out. There
will be a definite pride in the eleg-
ance OF the display. 1t may take
years to pay off the debt incurred
for this introduction to the sod.
But that's the way they are.
And It was noised about that
Jack would have q superlative fun

dom he had chosen to join. The
crowds. half curious, half nervous.
began TO gather.
Then a misty rain bryan. The Is
elegant private ears and the silver
plated $1,000 casket arrived to i'm
press all and sundry OF the affluence
OF Jacks gang. An even greater i'm
preston was made when q half
dozen police showed up. After all,
Jacks gang brothers would be pres
ent.
The rain began tn p<it, liquid

Unlawful For Dogs To Run
At Large

We beg to call the attention of the
public to the law relative to dogs
running at large pursuing game,
which is very detrimental to our
game supply and especially to rabbits
during the propagating season. A
mother rabbit does not have chance
to escape pursuing dog or dogs who
catch and destroy same, thereby de-
stroying, in great many cases, the
entire family, and the owners of dogs
in this state should realize that their
cooperation with this Department
in keeping their dogs either under
leash or confined, March 1st to Sep
TENDER list, will save thousands OF
pieces of game which will assure an
adequate supply in the covers fer
their benefit the next hunting season.
Paragraph F of Chapter o57, Act
of 1929, provides it to be unlawful
for any person to allow any dog or
dogs belonging to them to run al
large on other property than that
owned or tenanted by them between
March LIST and September LIST and
pursue game or destroy the eggs or
nests.
Any person harboring a dog or
dogs shall be termed the lawful
owner of same.
The penalty for violation is found
in Paragraph C of Section % of
Chapter 568, Acts of 1927, and pro-
vides fine of not less than $25.
nor more than $4,000 and costs for
each and every offense and $500
additional for each game animal
caught or killed illegally.

QUESTIONABLE FOR THE
FARMER
Fill Out And Hold For Govern
ment Enumeration

AS part of the program for making
the fifteenth annual farm census of the
United States, sample Schedule" of
questions is being distributed among
farmers in Maryland for the purpose
of familiarizing them with the type of
inquiries that will be made by Official
enumerators next April, according
to w. M. Steuart, director OF the
census, Department OF Commerce. The
Schedules" are being sent all over
the country.
A total OF 232 questions are included
and for this reason it is Of vital i'm
portance that each farmer read and
study carefully the folder sent to him.
AS soon as the Schedule" is received,
1t should be made out in full and care
fully filed away until the arrival OF the
enmerator. Mr.. Steuart urges that ali
farmers discuss the questions Will

rerest in the questionnalres, SO that b
complete and accurate report may be
OBTAINED. The schedules are not to be
mailed to Washington.

section was held last week al

protesting against the action
of the County Commissioners
in failing to recommend to the
State Roads Commission, the
Blue Ball road as one of the

tary, of the meeting.
Speakers who addressed the

rightly been allotted for i'm
proving Blue Ball road, was
diverted to other roads. A
committee was appointed to
appear before the County Com
missioners at their next meet
ing and present reasons why
the Board should reverse it's
recommendations in regard to

RUMANIAN RULERS MAY MAKE PEACE
Reconciliation With Queen Helen
 Expected in Near Future

Vienna, Aug. 12 GP-ReConCih- ation of King Carol of Rumania and his wife, Queen Helen, was said in repotts from the Rumanian sum- nlcr palace at Sinaia today 10 De but d matter of hours.
 These reports represented right about face from reports of a feT days ago which asserted that recon ciliation was impossible and that Carol would be crowned, proba bly September, without Helen's par ticipation.
 The more recent information was thatN Queen Helen, who is mother of the heir apparent, Prince Mi chael, had been persuaded to the correctness of the kings view that their, divorce, which was granted in his absence from Rumania, never was legal.
 Some observers here saw in the development the diplomatic hand of Nj. Titelescu, Rumanian minister at London, who has been in attend ance upon the king at Sinaia.
