FOR FISH AND GAME Changes in the Bills Reoently Intro- duoed in the’ Senate, THBMEASORE STREQOTHENEDTHBEERT Potomac Tributaries Are Closed to . fry Fishing Until June. THINGS WORTH KNOWING The two bills providing respez:ively for the preservation of game and the preven- tion of its sale ¢uring close seasons’ and for the protection of fish in the District cf Columbia, which were introduced in the Senate March 30 by Senator Proctor, have been returned for any changes in the bills that might be found advisable by the law committee ofthe District of Co- lumbia Fish and Game Protective Associs- tion, which drew up the original bills. The law committee at a recent meeiing of the executive committee of the association reported that certain changes had been found necessary. Senate bil! No. 1487, for the protection of fish in the District of Columbia, for the maintenance of a per- manent spawning ground in the Potomac river in said District, and for other pur- poses, now reads as follows: Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America, In Congress assembled, That from and after the date of the ni of this act no person shall fish with fyke net, pound net, stake net, welr, float net, gill net, haul scine, dip net, or any other con- trivance, stationary or floating, in the wa- ters of the Potomac-river and its tribu- (aries within the District of Columbia. Provided, That nothing in this act shall be construed to prevent the use of bar- rel nets or pots for the catching or killing of eels, or prevent the United States com- missioner of fish and fisheries, or his agents, from taking from sail waters in any manner desired fish of any kind for scientific purposes or for purposes of prop- agatioa, and that none of the provisions of this act shali apply to persons employed in catching. young catfish, smelt, chub, bull minnows and crayfish, for use as bait in fishing with hvok and line. Providea, That any person engaged in taking such catfish, smelt, chub and bull minnows, and crayfish, shall first have procured a writ- ten permit from the United States fish commissioner to take such balt for hook and Ine fishing. Section 2. That no person shall catch or kill in the waters of the Potomac river and its tributaries within the District of Columbia any black bass (otherwise known as green bass and chub), crapple (other- wise known as calico bass and strawberry bass), or striped bass (otherwise known as rcckfish), between the first day of April and the first day of June of each year, nor have in possession or expose fer sale any of said species between the dates afore- said; nor catch or kill gny of said species of fish at any other time during the year except by angling, whiéh shall not include the taking of fish by,.what are known as out lines or trot linea, < Section 3. That it shall be unlawful for any person to have in possession or expose for sale in the Distrist of Columbia after the 10th day of June ig ly year any fresh fish of the shad or hert{ng species. Section 4. That {t shall be unlawful for any person to expose for sale in the Dis- trict of Columbia at | time during the year any striped basq'ar rockfish or black bess having a length 9f,less than nine inch- es. Section 5. That it {hall be unlawful for any person to catch of kill in the waters of the Potomac river and is tributaries within the District of Columbia any fish by.means of explosives, drugs or poisons. Section 6. That no #&ton shall allow any tar, oil, ammontacal fiator or other waste products of any gas°vxurks or works en- gaged in using such praducts, or any waste product Whatever of any mechanical, chem- ieal, manufacturing o¥ refining establish- ment, to flow into or be deposited in Rock creek or the Potomac river, or any of its tributaries within. the District of Colum- bia, or inte any pipe or conduit leading to the same. Sec. 7. That any person who shall violate any of the provisions of this act shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor, and upon conviction therefor before the Police Court or any other court of the District of Co- lumbia, shall be fined for each and every such offense not less than $10 nor more than $100, and in default of payment of fine shall be imprisoned in the workhouse for a period not exceeding six months; and any officer or other person securing such conviction before the Police Court of the District of Columbia shall be entitled to and receive one-half of any fine or fines imposed upon and paid by the party or Parties: adjudged guilty. Sec. 8. That all nets, boats or other con- trivances the property of any person con- victed under the provisions of this act shall be returned to the property clerk of the metropolitan police department to be de- livered to the owner upon the order of the judge of the police or other court, and if not called for within six months by the claimant the same shall be treated as other abandoned property coming into the hands of the police. Sec. 9. That all acts or parts of acts not in harmony with the provisions of this act be, and the same are hereby, repealed. The changes in this bill are important, as in section I {t is provided that persons catching live bait shall first secure a writ- ten permit from the United States fish commissioner, and in section 4 it is made unlawful for any one to expose for sale at any time in the year any rock fish or black bass under nine inches in length. This provision will prevent the catching of small fish of such varieties that are now 80 plentifully offered by fish dealers here. Changes in the Bill. Senate bill No. 1488,. which Provides for the preservation of game and for the pre- vention of its sale during certain ciosea Seasons, now reads as follows: Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That no person shall kill, expose for sale, or have in his or her possession, either deaa or alive, any partridge, otherwise quail, between the Ist day of February and the Ist day of November; nor kill, expose for sale, or have in his or her possession, either dead or alive, any woodcock between the 15th day. of January and the 15th day of July; nor kill, expose for sale, or have in his or her possession, efther dead or alive, any prairie chicken, otherwise pin- nated grouse, between ‘the Ist day of Feb- ruary and the Ist day3of-September; nor Lill, expose for sale, we in his. or her possession, elther Pass or. alive, any pheasant between the ggth day of Decem- ber and the 1st day of November; nor kill, expose for sale, or have.in his or her pos- session, either dead on,alive, any wild tur- key between the 26th day of December and the ist day of November; nor kill, expose for sale, or have in hi®’or her possession, either dead or alive, asey rabbit or squirre: between the Ist day of: February and the Ist day of November;.npr kill, expose for sale, or have in or her ion, either dead or alive, “ality snipe or plover between the {St day of May and the ist day of September; nor kill, expose for sale, or have in his or hi m, either dead or alive, any wild duck, wild goose or brandt between the day of April and the 1st day of September; nor kill, expose for sale, or have in his;or her possession, either dead or alive, apy water rail, or or- tolan, or reed bird, of rice bird, or marsh blackbird, between the 1st day of Feb- ruary and the 20th dayof August, under a penalty of % for each bird so-killed, ex- posed for sale, or in: possession, and in default thereof to be imprisoned in the ceeding work! for a period not ex thirty days, Sec. 2.

"gee. 3. That, to carry out the provisions of this chapter, any police officer, game warden, having police authority, or health officer of the District of Columbia is au- thorized and empowered to thoroughly in- spect any house, boat, market box, stall, cold storage, or other place of whatever charaster or kind where he may belicve game, meats or birds, as heretofore men- tioned in this chapter, may be stored or kept, and any proprietor, agen:, employe or other person refusing to permit such inspection shail be deemed guilty of inter- ference with the police, and upon convie- tion therefor be fined not more than one hundred dollars nor less than twenty-five dollars, and in default of such payment, to be imprisoned in the United States jail not exceeding six months. Sec. 6 That any person who shall know- ingly trespass on the lands of another for the purpose of shooting or hunting thereon, after due notice by the owner or occupant of lands, shall be Hable to such owner or occupant in exemplary damages to an amount not exceeding $100. That notice shall be given by erecting and maintaining signboards at least eight by twelve inches in dimensions on the borders of the prem- isses, and at least two such signs for every fifty acres; and any person who shali ma- liciously tear down or in any manner de- face or injure any of such signboards shall be Hable to a penalty of not less than % for each and every signboard so torn down, de- faced or injured, an@ in default to be im- prisoned for a period not exceeding thirty days in the workhouse.

Sec. 10, That all acts now in force in the District of Columbia tnconsistent with the provisions of this act be, and the same are hereby, repealed. s Some of the Additions. The charges in the latter bill include squirrels, pheasants and wild turkeys in the protection of the law, and extends the reed bird and ortolan season eleven days, opening it Augvst 20 instead of September 1. The mere possession of shooting imple- ments on Sunday is nut made a violation, and guns may be transported on that day within and w:thout the District. The two bills will remain in the custody of the game essociation law committee for some time, and if the members of the Game and Fish Association, who desire additional changes in the bills, will communicate their sug- gestions to Dr. W. P. Young, the secre- tary, No. 1233 F street northwest, he wiil refer them to the committee on laws. Potomac Tributarics Closed. Many persors who find it difficult to re- strain their angling propensities until Jue 1 have concluded to take trips to the trib- utarics of the Potomac in Maryland and Virginia and seek bass in those streams. They will be risking a great deal of danger if they do, and a perusal of the following information may save them much annoy- ance and heavy expense. There was much discussion about the right to fish in the streams running into the Potomac, and Dr. W. P. Young, secretary-treasurer of the Game and Fish Protective Association of this District, conferred with Dr. George W. Massamore, chief deputy game and fish warden of Maryland. The latter has made the following announcement: “Let me qucte from the new West Vir- ginia law: ‘It shall not be lawful for any person to catch any black bass, green bass, rock bass, pike or pickerel, or wall-eyed pike, between the 15th day of April and i5th day of June of each year, nor shall it be lawful to catch or kill any of said species of fish at any other time during the year, save only with a rod, hook and line.’ You don’t want anything better than that. When West Virginia passed the Potomac river bill, the law became operative in Maryland, Virginia and West Virginie, but only as applying to the Potomac river. “So far as the local or general laws in the respective states are concerned, that 18 a matter that rests with the legislatures of the respective states. In Maryland we passed a law for the tributaries of the Po- temac river in conformity with the Poto- mac law. West Virginia has done the same, except that the closed scason is fifteen days longer; a wise provision it is, too.” Consequently it will be seen that no fish- ing can be indulged in along any Maryland and West Virginia streams that flow into the Potomac until the open season begins in the Potomac. The Canal Seining Fund. The balance remaining over from the canal seining fund which was collected by The Evening Star through contribu- tions from anglers and sportsmen in the District last fa has been turned over to the Game and Fish Association, to be used for fish protective and preservative pur- poses. The sum handed over to Secretary- Treasurer W. P. Young by The Evening Star was $85, and Dr. W. 8S. Harban paia to the same officer $6 which had been sub- scribed through him. This disposition ot the balance was determined upon because nearly, if not quite, all the subscribers to the seining fund are now members of the association, and a large number of them heartily approved such a course. Of course, if any of the subscribers object to the way been eir the as of, th subscriptions will be returned to them. ——.__. PORTRAIT PRESENTED. Columbian Alumni Do Honor to Presi- dent Whitman, A handsomely executed portrait of Presi- dent B. L. Whitman of Columbian Uni- versity was presented to the institution last were anxious that Columbian should be prosperous was shown by the fact that a few of them had arranged for the painting of President Whitman’s portrait. Rev. Dr. 8. H. Greene, pastor of Calvary Baptist Church and a member of the board of trustees of the university, said it gave him great pleasure to receive on the part of the corporation the portrait.
