The trout season, which opened April 1, will not close until July 15, and the pike and pickerel reason extends from May 20 to November 30. Because of the enforcement of conscri vation laws and the restocking wcrk f done by the Fish and Gam?

' 'will move to disbab convicted prosecutor ! From Monday's Daily Star and Wave, i With Supreme Court Justices Garrison . Trenchard and Blade sitting in Camden to-day, Prosecutor Matthew Jefferson, • of Cape. May county, will probably be rei quired to show cause why he should not be disbarred from practicing law in New ' Jersey. He is under sentence of two years for alleged misconduct of his office, but an appeal has been made. In the meanwhile he has refused to resign his office. The proceedings are in charge of Assistant Attorney General Stryker. The latter was ^appointed by Attorney General Wescott in whose office Jefferson was a student. The case involving Jefferson caused a sensation in this county. He was charged with collecting fines and failing to return them to the county, although he alleged he was the victim of the "liquor /'"ring." However, over a score of counts were made against him, charging malfeasance in office. Prosecutor Kraft, of Camden, a personal friend of Jefferson, prosecuted the State's case and the defendant's conviction followed. Jefferson is widely known in Democratic circles South Jersey.

AMENDMENTS TO CORRUPT PRACTICES ACT. The Corrupt Practices Act is very comprehensive but there is room. for improvement in it. If there was a provision for instance, which invalidated the title to any office to which a candidate's election had been aided by purchased votes, there would be a sudden slump of interest in the vote-buying industry. We use the word "industry" advisedly, for it begins to look as though syndicates would be formed soon to control this matter, and it will not be surprising to see, some day, advertisements like this: "Election Successes Made Easy" The undersigned, being thoroughly conversant with the business of votebuying, will engage to purchase any number of votes required to secure any election for a reasonable commission upon the amount expended. Contractors desiring to secure control of the government of any city or other municipality will find such services as I can render indispensable. Testimonials from several candidates and contractors in different cities will be supplied upon application. Office hours from 10.00 a. m. to 4.00 p. m. Free rum to callers. Zeb- 1 ulon J. Black, Sure-Thing Building, Suite 74." The development of this industry will naturally give rise to a syndicated boss business. We can imagine an advertisement of the future like this: | "Noticd* to Rounders. The undersigned having had experience as boBs and assistant boss in sev- . eral cities will accept a call from any f city where the pickings are apt to be good.

DON'T LIKE THE TELEPHONE Indians Predict that "Little People" Inhabiting Mesa Verde Cliff Dwellings Will Destroy L>ne. Tlie Indians jiving near the celebrated Mesa Verde in southwestern Colorado are I interested in the outeoiie of their pre- ■ dictions about the telephone line w-liich • ■ the I Government has just completed into ■ the Me«a Verde National Park. They : declare that the poles won't stand and i that the wires won't talk. When asked ; ■ why, they solemnly reply that the "lit- i ' tie people" will permit no such uncanny i things to come so near their ancient : '.homes. Nor can they be puisuaded to . 1 the contrary. The white men will see i for themselves, pretty soon. ' The Indians live in great awe of the prehistoric dwellings^ the Mancos Valley, which are, by far, the finest and ' preserved of any in the American > southwest. They will not believe that it was Pueblo Indians, or any Indians 1 fact, who, so long ago that the oldest - traditions describe them "as they now j 1 are, carved these wonderful cities out of 1 | the cliffs. They believe that spiritE built ( the cliff dwellings, and that spirits still ' them. They reverently call 1 these spirits the "little people." ' J For this, reason it is difficult to induce J Indians to approach the cliff dwellings, t Whether or not the continued success of I the Government telephone line will e shake their superstitious faith remains ?

We are twenty years behind Massachusetts in spite of ' suffrage." WAR &EEPS SOCIETY PEOPLE IN THE UNITED STATES The war has caused a great change in ■ the "Summer Social Register." Last year 878 American families were to be found at foreign residences, while this I year there are but 208, a reduction of 75 • per cent. After April 1 last year 852 • families went abroad, while only 44 i went abroad this year. Last year there i 237 foreign arrivals, but the co*i- ' flict in Europe has caused the number I to dwindle to 27 this year? Eighty-four I families' from Eastern cities are recorded at country residence on the Pacific ' Coast. This is due undoubtedly to tli ■ . fairs at San Diego and San Francisco, i According to the social records, 142 fami are summering on their yachts. UNCLAIMED LETTERS.
