deputy who discovers such infractions is in¬ 
structed to inquire into the situation before 
making an arrest, and if it is found that the 
purpose of the administration can be served 
without a trial in court, the court must be 
Avoided. Deputies operating under the new 
order of things report that they are meeting 
with great success in the enforcement of the 
law and that the law is being regarded much 
more highly than formerly. 
“It must not be understood,” said Mr. Miles, 
“that we are letting down the bars to reckless 
hunting-and fishing in the State, because we 
are not. We are merely turning our attention 
chiefly to the hardened violators and trying to 
deal with the casual violator more after the 
order of things prevailing under an intelligent 
judge who has adopted the parole system in 
dealing with the persons brought before him. 
We will show no mercy to the ‘pirate.’ When 
we go after him we will get him, and he will 
be compelled t.o pay the penalty for his acts. 
The intent of the law, rather than wh|t can be 
made by arresting every person who trans¬ 
gresses any letter of the law, has been adopted 
as the guiding principle.” 
FOR BETTER GAME LAWS. 
The Arkansas State Sportsman’s Association 
has uhdertaken a difficult but laudable task, that 
of protecting the fish and game of the State. It 
has made considerable progress already, but 
there is plenty of work yet before it, says the 
Fort Smith American. 
The hunter out of season and the dynamiter 
have grown a little more chary in their reckless 
slaughter of the game, owing to the agitation, 
the improvement in the law and the vigorous 
prosecution of such offenders as have been ap¬ 
prehended with sufficient evidence to convict. 
The organization will not be popular with the 
vandals who hunt and fish for profit and slaugh¬ 
ter as they go, but unless its influence can be 
felt and the Legislature induced to put as many 
safeguards as possible around the fish and game 
of the State, it will be only a few years at best 
until the streams and forests will be practically 
barren. 
On the other hand if proper laws are enacted 
and reasonably enforced, there should be game 
in our forests and fish in our streams in great 
plenty for years to come. Members of the or¬ 
ganization are already attending to the stocking 
of the good fishing streams with young bass. 
Through the efforts of C. R. Cordell and Will 
Echols large quantities, nearly one hundred thou¬ 
sand, of young bass have been put in Frog Bayou 
in the past year, while W. E. Decker and Harry 
Lequire, the game warden of Haskell county, 
Okla., the present month were able to plant a 
large consignment of black bass from the Neosho 
hatchery in Mountain Fork through the courtesy 
of Senator Gore. 
With her splendid streams and ample forests 
there is no reason why Arkansas should not re¬ 
main one of the finest fish and game States in 
the Union for many years. Proper protection, 
easily within the power of the Legislature to 
give, backed by public sentiment, will soon re¬ 
duce the vandalism that has heretofore prevail¬ 
ed to a minimum. 
HIS FATHER’S ROD. 
Last year a fisherman, tired of unsuccessful 
dangling of worm, lay back in a boat for a 
smoke. Suddenly there came a grab, and bang 
over the boat side flew the rod—a sad occur¬ 
rence, for, like the ax in the classic story, it 
was a borrowed one. The fishing-rod disap¬ 
peared completely, and the angler went back 
to his father to make the best of the affair that 
he could. This year he has had the felicity of 
restoring the rod to his parent. Fishing in the 
same loch the other day he caught the same 
fish. There is no doubt about his identification 
ot it, because he got it out. In its mouth was 
an ancient hook. Attached to the hook was his 
last year’s tackle. Beyond the tackle, his old 
familiar line, and, when he had pulled the line 
in, up came his father’s rod. — Grimsby News.

The shop itself, the place of business of Uncle Lisha 
Peggs, bootmaker and repairer, was a sort of sportsman’s 
exchange, where, as one of the fraternity expressed it, 
the hunters and fishermen of the widely scattered neigh- 
borhood used to meet of evening and dull outdoor days 
“to swap lies.”
