The luwn of the state of South Carolina will hereafter throw a pro tective cordon around the robin har binger of spring, The state game department ban issued order* to all of its county game wardens to arrest all boys or other people who shoot, maim or otherwise destroy the robins. The policy of the department up to this time has been one of leniency. Parents of the youths who killed robins were notified and there the matter dropped. A. A. Richardson, of Columbia, thief state game warden, has issued inst ructions to his wardens through out the state. Mr. Uichardson issued the following statement in regard to ihogtUtuAiion.' ? "My instructions heretofore to the game wardens have been not to arrest boys who were found shooting robin.-., which is a violation of both state and federal laws, but to lecture the boys and report them to their parents. This order was given in order that the parents could co-operate With his de partment. Possibly they have tried to do so, but from reports coming to me I now find that there are so many boys and others shooting robins, which have begun to appear in large numbers, that hereafter any person, regardless of age caught shooting robins will be prosecuted in accord ance with the law. I hope that the parents will control their boys and re lieve me of this necessity." Arthur E. Donegan, former state senator and? president of a national bank at St. Cloud,, Fla., is to serve six yearn in the Federal prison in Atlan ta. on the charge of misapplication and abstraction of $20,760 of the bank's funds, according to an opinion hnndrd rirnvn hy the circuit court of I a]) pea Is sitting in New Orleans.
