THK GAME LAWS. Rifhardion Cite* law Concerning Open Hunting Season. The following item has bt.cn re - eeived from A. A. Richardson, chief game warden of South Carolina, con* ceOiing the open season for hunting dome-tie gsme, birds and animals in South < 'urtrlfim: "At the lUL't session of the legisla ture, tile following law wa? pusned: - " I hat the open season for hunting domestic game, birds and animals in South Carolina shall be from Thanks giving day to March 1, inclusive, ex cept that deer, bucks only, may be hunted from September 1 to January lu. inclusive; and that raeeoo.ns, opos sums and foxes may be hunted from Septembei 1 to March 1: Provided be tween September I and Thanksgiving day rabbits may be hunted without firearms and squirrels may be hunted without dogs, ^ '1 am daily in receipt of inquiries from all parts of the state asking whether or not this law will govern the shooting of doves, thereby allow ing doves to Ik* shot from Thanks giving day to March 1, or whether the federal law, which provides that doves may be shot from November 1 to January 151, would be the law that governs the shooting of doves in South Carolina. ? "I have taken this matter up with the federal* authorities in Washing ton and Dr. K. W. Nelson, chief of bu reau, bureau of biological survey, ad vises that 'mourning or Carolina doves are migratory birds under the terms of the treaty, act and regula tions;' and, that 'the bureau has never considered the term 'domestic Kami* birds,' as used in the Suuth Carolina law to include mourning or Carolina doves.' I, therefore, wish to advise the sportsmen of South Caro lina that the federal law will govern io South Carolina, and that persons j may shoot doves from November 1 to .January HI. "I wish to call to the attention of all hunters that our law prohibits the carrying of both gun and dog into the field at the same time prior to Thanksgiving day for the purpose of hunting rabbits. The legislature's intention was to keep the dog and 1 gun out of the field at the same time, j until Thanksgiving day, when? the ! quail season opens, thereby elimina ' ting the possibility of killing quail* Therefore, it will be well for hunters | who wish to hunt doves to leave their , dogs at home; simply take their guns j and thereby not lay themselves in any way liable to a violation of either the state or federal law ' Marriage.

Wright Took Sick and Substitute* ' l ound Shortage. .Sumter, Oct. 7. ? M. 0. Wright;, teller at the, City National Bank, has j boert found short in his accounts, ac cording to a statement issued today by President (L A, Lemmon of that institution. His accounts have been checked arid rechecked by the national bank examiner and the shortage i< given as $4,242.04, according to the bank's statement S. A. Moore, national bank exami ner, attests the correctness of the statement and figures. Wright was taken sick about two weeks ago and went to a hospital for an operation, and it was then that R. C. Williams, taking his place as teller, discovered the shortage, according to Mr. Lem m on's statement. After the books had been audited and the amount of shortage discover ed, Mr. Williams went to Florence and in a talk with Mr. Wright the latter admitted a shortage, it is said, and told how he had covered up the shortage by manipulation of the cash accounts and drafts of corresponding banks. The shortage was kept secret at first because Mr. Wright was just, recovering from an operation, but was made known now as he will he dismissed from the hospital this week according to Mr. hemmon'^ state ment. Mr Lemmon stated that the bank was fully protected, as Mr. Wright was bonded for $10,000, and tin bonding company had been called upon to make good the loss. He stated that he did not know what action the bonding company might take against Mr. W right. 1 ? ? r ?? Harry Thaw To Asheville. Asheville, Oct. 0.? Harry K.
