that for information on bag limits,

If you like to read about hunt
ing dogs, see Don Tracy's story
about "The Smartest Dog in Mary
land" in the current issue of the
Saturday Evening Post. You will
find it highly amusing. We had
the pleasure of shooting ducks
last season with the author, a
resident of Maryland. His story
takes you into familiar shooting
territory. Many of you may know
Sam, the hero of the story, and
his owner. Bunny Rigg of Annapo-
lis.
The wild waterfowl hunting

We have a letter this week from
Bob Williams at South River Park,
Edgewater. Md. listing two blinds
on South River for rent to hunters
this year. Otis Bridges of Boz
man. Md, also advises he has
some open dates left for his blinds
over on the Eastern Shore.
Any one desiring to list n1inds
for rent with this column should
write in promptly. We will be
glad to spread the information.
Duck hunters not having blinds
of their own would do well this
year to plan their hunting dates
well ahead as not too many ac-
commodationS will be available.
Those on good shooting shcreline
are quickly engaged for the
season.

OUTDOORS

The weather forecast for this
week end is none too propitious,
but for those rugged enough to
stand it angling for stripers
should be good-if it is not too
rough to venture out on Chesa-
peake Bay.
The big rockfish still are to
be caught on the Hill in the
early morning and late evening
hours and a few are finding their
way down to the Gooses. We'd say
the latter spot should be one of
the best bets for the week end.
Some mighty nice catches have
been made there this week. Good
catches also were made off Ken
wood Beach, Cove Point and in
the vicinity of Cedar Point Light.
From all reports, rockfish are
feeding sporadically and there
still is plenty of food for them
all over the bay.
Bass fishing has slowed con-
siderably in the Potomac, partly
because of roilly water and main
ly because the bass seem to be
seeking the deep holes where they
mostly are taken on live bait.
There is good fishing for crappie
ard bluegills in nearby ponds and
reservoirs and largemouth bass
fishing has picked up in these
quiet waters as weed growth has
slowly been dissipated.
Maryland's upland hunting sea-

wise, the season closes at sunset
December 81. However, for all
practical purposes, December 80

day of the month happens to be
Sunday and no Sunday hunting
is permitted in Maryland.
Quail and rabbits are very
plentiful this year in certain Sec

Receipts Of Treasurer's
Office For Year Over
One Million

According to the records of the
office of the treasurer of Dicken
son County, receipts of the office
for the year ending June 80, 1850,
amounted to $1,001, 234.59. Re-
ceipts of the office for last year
amounted to $87O,188.09, and for
1913 receipts amounted to $751;
674.73.
The considerable increase in
receipts this year over the last
two years does not mean that the
increase was entirely in taxes,
but is accounted for by reason of
the county cashing in $4,000 in
U. S. bonds bought by the coun-
ty during the war years and
cashed this year to help build the
county Jail, and thus crediting
the bonds as receipts.
There has been reasonable
and steady increase each year in
taxes, due to the increase in pop
ulation and of new industries, etc.

CORDER'S APPEAL
FOR NEW TRIAL
DENIED

Circuit court finally ground to
to halt last Friday afternoon af-
ter more than three weeks work.
Wednesday, Thursday and Fri
day of last week were taken up
with civil cases and action on
two criminal cases. Only two
cases were left for the Septem-
Der term, those of Junior Justice
and Calvin Moore, both charged
with murder.
After nearly two days OF testi-
mony in the suit OF Levi Hall
against the Clinchfield Railroad
Company, the court struck the
evidence and directed the jury
to render a verdict in favor of
the defendant. Hall had sued the
railroad company for damages of
$4,000 on account of an injury
sustained at Splashdam in Febru-
airy, 1949. While about his duties
as tipple foreman at the mine,
Hall had been struck by a rail-
road section car.
In the suit of Ezra O'Quinn
against the Lambert Coal Com
pany, the evidence was also
struck and a directed verdict in
favor of the defendant was rem
dered. 1t appears that number
of miners working for the Lam
bert Coal Company had traded
at the Lambert store at Nora and
that their store accounts had
been deducted from their pay.
The coal company changed hands
and the mine workers were re-
placed by others from different
communities. The mine commit
tee directed the company not to
make deductions for the store &C
counts then current. However,
the deductions were made, and
the men sued for the amounts
taken from their pay envelopes.
In ten other cases of like nature
verdicts were given in favor of
the company. In nine other cases
the former employees were given
judgments.
Orbin Corder, who had been
convicted of the Staying OF Fitz-
hugh Yates and sentenced to Is
years in the penitentiary, appeal
ed for a new trial. The court de-
MED the appeal. Then the de-
Tense attorneys asked for 60
day stay of execution pending
an appeal to the supreme court.
The stay was granted and Corder
was released on a $4,000 bond.
The grand jury failed to make
any indictments in the case of
the ten young men accused Of at
lacking Lonzo Edwards and beat
ing up his automobile back in
March. After their examining
trial the men were held for cir
cult court under bonds of 1000
each.
Charles Keel, who had previous
ly entered a plea of guilty to
charge of breaking and entering
was sentenced to two years in
the penitentiary. The sentence
was suspended and Keel was
placed on probation.
