Tliese indictments cannot be brought up again, they are not held In abeyance, as one or more i wipers printed and it is jio postponement or continu ance, as the eases have been thrown bodily out of court, and the court has "wiped its hands' of the whefle matter. There Is no such thing as o "tern* I I>orary ool pros." . The very words mean "not willing to follow further," and the solicitor said in asking the court to ofder a tiol pros, iu each of tho five cases: "If I had known the true facts iu this case before trial I would not have permitted it to be tried.'* Some of the State papers haYe con sistently refused t U print anvth|ng in connection with this case not. favorable to the prosecution, and in so doing have printed much that i* misleading. \t Baptist Church Sunday .

The acMon of the couipnuy will bo received with delight by real MKirtsnuMi, bocausc u rcrtl sportsman will help see that the niton are nbeyed . The pond was stocked with government fish several years ago and If the rules, tire properly carried out it will not be long before there will tie a greater abundance of fish : "To tho Editor: Home year's ago fishing en our |?oud was permitted without any restriction of any kiud. We found the privilege so thoroughly abused that it became necessary to reg ulate the. matter !>y Issuing permits for which no charge was made. Our courtesy lu this respect.. received such small consideration that many desiring to fish refused even to , take the trouble of coining to our office to secure this permit. We then began ehurging a fee of 23c for a .permit lu order to lend value to the transaction and ?t>lll a considerable portion of those fishing paid uo atten tion to otir requirements. We then de cided upon the courae of charging 50c for these permits, donating eayh ROc to tho C.iuulen Hospital, a uoo?t worthy benevolence .and one which' we felt would appeal to nil sportsmen. Under such arrangement the violations of regulations continued. We have, there fore, found it necessary . to- t nice dras tic steps to enforce our regulations. Tho property beflongs to the stockhol* dors of the Hermitage Cotton Mills, aud we feel that we are fully within out fights lu handling this property in any manner W;e may see fit. it is our de sire to conserve opportunities of fine sport for sportsmen. We do not pro- ... I>o so to permit absolute uuHeensed (lis- <f regard of regulations. 1 "We are charging $1.00 for thirty day permits for line fishing only, 00c 'of this being donated to the Camden IIos- w pital and 50c partially defraying the cost of enforcement. We arc arrang ing to pl<nce a patrol on the pond, and all persons not securing permits *ro4in for the permit on account of the, ad ditional expeuse thereby entailed^ "We think our efforts along th(s line should be entirely mifficlent to meet, the situation, but if not, we shall be obliged to seek redress by individual indictment* and prosecutions.
