The infernal machine dropped, and Detective Browne, who was at Ho siers elbow, grabbed it. Warr reached in his coat pocket and Hosick hit him again and he tumbled to the floor unconscious. The hottie of nitroglycerin and the revolver were in Warr’s inside coat pocket, toward which he had reached. As Warr had said, his left hand was attached to the mechanism of the in fernal machine and its yvithdrawal ig nited the fuse, but the quick work of Detective Broyvne prevented the sparks from reaching the explosive. There were 60 half sticks of dyna mite, and an expert said it was 60 per cent, ami that there was enough to blow up a city block. At the receiving hospital Warr said last night he "guessed tile fuse was too long, which was the reason there was no explosion." He said he was born in Germany, was 34 years old and had lived in this country 15 years. Detective James Hosick. who felled Warr with a blow on the head, and De tective Samuel 1.. Broyvne, who seized the infernal machine and carried it to the street, scattering the dynamite and extinguishing the lighted fuse, were congratulated by the police todav.

The open season for quail, which be gins today, will be hailed with great jqy by hundreds of hunters throughout Georgia, and the birds are said to be . more plentiful this year than they have been In a long time. State Game Warden Jesse Mercer, who Is an enthusiastic sportsman him self, while wishing all his fellow sports men a successful and satisfactory sea son, has placed all hunters on notice that they must comply strictly with the game laws as they are written in the statute books, or suffer prosecution. He proposes to enforce the laws, without fear or favor and to the very last letter. “There Is no reason why there should be the slightest misunderstanding as to the limitations and specifications of the game laws," said Mr. Mercer today, discussing the opening of the season, "and I hope, of course, that my official duties during the season’s progress will be of the most pleasant variety. Must Observe Law. “At the same time it may as well be understood at the very outset—and that because there are some people who will not obey the law unless they are made to—that I shall enforce rigidly every provision and Insist upsn Its ob servation. Those who would not be prosecuted must not infringe upon the law—that’s all. “The present, game laws have been evolved of long years of experience. They ware framed in wisdom, justice and moderation, as all Georgia laws should be framed. If obeyed general ly, the quail may be preserved to Geor gia for many, many years. On the con trary, they are entirely mindful of and fjlendly to the true sportsman. They are good, sound, common sense regu lations—and they are mandatory upon hunters, and must be carried out,” State Entomologist Lee Worsham says the boll weevil surely will reach Georgia within three years, and Game Warden Mercer says the farmers should realize that one of the greatest and surest weevil exterminators in the world Is the quail. Hence, the conservation of the quail Is greatly to be desired, both in the Worsham and Mercer philosophy. COLLEGE GIRLS BAR “QUEENING” FOR 12 HOURS EVERY DA<Y WHITTIER.
