Tbs fi:- z? _ CONCEALED WEAPONS. Mrs. Smiley of East Macon Fined SSO by Judge Ro»s. The vase of the state versus Mrs. L. T. Smilry, charged with carrying conceal ed weapons and pointing a pistol a: an other, was heard in the city court yester day afternoon. Mention of the facts in the case were made when the warrants for the arrest ct Mrs. Smiley were sworn out at Judge Balkcom’s court. The evidence introduced was that a man named Stripping had been killing chick ens that belonged to Mrs. Smiley because they persisted in coming into his garden next door. He would kill the crickens and carry them and put them on Mrs. Smiley’s front porch. She made no com plaint until Stripling killed a fine domi neer rooster that she prized highly, and •when she say the once king of the barn- I yard lying cold- in death on her front poroh. she determined upon revenge. Arm ing herself with a pistol she went in search of the slayer of her pec chicken. She found him at a store talking to several gentle men. She pulled her pistol and told him to step out from the crowd and she would have it out with him. Stripling did not care to have a duel with a woman, espe cially as he was not armed, and avoided a fight, but went to the office of Judge Balkcom and swore out a warrant against Mrs. Smiley for pointing a pistol at an other and carying concealed weapons. Mrs. Smiley was present in court yes terday with her husband, who is night foreman at the Southern Railway yards. Mrs. Smiley was acquitted of the charge of pointing a pistol at another, but was found guilty of carrying concealed weap ons and fined SSO by Judge Ross. The fine was paid and Mrs. Smiley and her hus band left the court house seemingly sat isfied. State of Ohio, City of Toledo, —ss Lucas County. Frank J.

The following card was addressed to the business men of the city yesterday by the Navigation committee of the Chamber of Commerce, who will start to work taking subscriptions for the building; of the new boat in a few days: Macon, Ga., March 28, 1898. —Dear Sir: The Chamber of Commerce initiated in 1897 the movement to promote navigation on the Ocmulgee river. As a result money was raised and a boat built. The venture has proved that the river is navigable for boats like the City of Macon the year round, and that a maintenance and in-, crease in navigation facilities wil build up Macon and increase her trade territory. To this end at a largely attended meeting of the Chamber of Commerce it was de cided that another boat should be built at once, and nearly one-half of the amount was subscribed at the meeting. We appeal to you to lend your aid to the enterprise. Whatever benefits any line of trade, any class of business, benefits directly or in directly the whole community. We believe that to -foster and increase navigation fa cilities means the development of business on broader lines in Macon. Stores waiting for tenants will be occupied and new ones will be built; for capital and business en terprise will always come where induce ments exist to attract them. With a de velopment of business comes an increase in population, with a demand for homes and all the other benefits that arise from such a condition. The owners of real es tate, the retail merchant and the man de pending on his daily wages will all be the beneficiaries. From a business point of view it is to the interest of every citizen who can to contribute to this work. If you are in. favor of what we believe will be the legitimate result of our movement please fill out return slip with number of shares you will subscribe for. Shares $25, payable in installments of $5 each per month. We remain yours truly, Geo. A. Smith, Chairman, I. B. English, C. B. Adams, Henry Wortham, G. C. Johnson, A. B. Small, A. E. Chappell, Navigation Committee Chamber of Com merce, CAfci'poniTk. The fie- , HAS STONG TEAM. What Manager Whitney of Mercer Says of Milledgeville Team.

TRAPS AND NETS CANNOT BE USED Bill Introduced by Mr. Reid of Bibb, and Passed by Leg islature Will be Enforced. OIL! IITH HOOK AND LINE Can the Fish in the Streams. Lakes and Rivers of the County be Caught —Full Text of Law. The law which was passed at the last session of tne legislature relative to the trapping and killing oi’m-h in tiiv streams of Bibb county will -be en-forced, and all those who no.v have traps or nets iti the ponds or streams around Macon are com mitting a breach of the code of the state. In September Mr. S. A. Reid introduced a bill in the legislature to prevent the catching of fish in traps, nets, seines and otherwise destroying them with the excep tion of a hook and Rue. The bill was duly passed and has become a law without many people of Bibb county knowing that such a law existed. The bill which was passed is as follows: 1. He it enacted by the geamral assem bly of Georgia, and it is hereify enacted by authority of the same, that from and after ithe passage of this act. it ehall not be lawful for any person to shoot, spear, gig, catch with seines, or entrap with any de-' vice whatever, except with hook and line, any fish in any fish*in any stream, lake or pond in the county of .Bibb for a period of live years from the passage of this act. i. Be it further enacted by the authority aforesaid, that it shali not be lawful for any person to keep or maintain upon any stream upon his land, owned by himself or another, or to permit to remain in any stream or upon or oposite- to land owned :by himself, any trap now placed in any stream, lake or pond in the county of Bibb during the said period. 3. Be it further enacted by the authority aforesaid, that for every violation of this act the person offending shall be guilty of misdemeanor, and upon conviction shall be punished according to section 1039, .volume 3, es the code of 1895. There are hundreds of people in the county who have traps and nets in the riv er or ponds, and have no idea that they are breaking -the law Ashen they permit them to stay there. The law was introduced to prevent the destroying of the large number of fish an nually destroyed in the county. When the streams rise in the spring hundreds ®f pounds are caught in the traps and nets, avid for better disposition they are t-fhrown away. The traps prevent the fish from go ing up stream, and it has become a fact that it is almost impossible to catch fish with a hok and line around iMacon, they have become so scarce. Fishermen who enjoy the sport so long as it is carried on with a hook and line, say that they -will see that the law is en forced, and will stop the destruction of so unany of the fish in the streams in this county.
