THE BRUNSWICK DAILY NEIVS. VOLUME 2; NUMBER 168. CONVICT BILL COMES UP TODAY ♦ Georgia Legislature to to* Take Up this Impor tant Matter SOME NEW GAME LAWS Bill Providing for Obtaining Copies Colonial Records from London Put Through—Steering Com mittee Turned Down. Atlanta, Aug. 1. —The house did a little bit of all sorts yesterday. The convict question was set as a special order for tomorrow morning lmmediatly after the reading of the Journal, and it is hoped the house will finally dispose of the measure at that time. Anew game law was passed. Rather it is a compilation of the present game laws of the state with several im portant amendments, including protec tion for summer duck, marsh henß and other game birds which have not heretofore been taken into considera tion. Another interesting measure which went through provides tor a register a f all posted lands to be kept in the office of the ordinary, such register to he considred as notice to all parties proposing to hunt, fish or otherwise trespass. - The resolution appropriating $2,000 to obtain, copies of important colonial records relating to Gergia, which exist only In London, and the resolution authorizing the state treasurer to transfer pension money from one pen sion fund tin Again the house refused to entertain the proposition looking to the appoint ment of a steering committee. The members opposing the steering corn much power over the business of the house in the hands of the speaker. Only the calendar, therefore, will have the right of way unless certain measures are taken up and made special orders. Protection of Birds. The house passed the bill by Mr. Harden, of Chatham, to amend the game laws for the protection of birds and other game by a vote of 106 to 6. This bill contains very few new features, being largely a compilation and revision of the game law* already on the statute books. Among the new features, however, is a provision for the protection of summer duck, the closed season being fixeed from Febru ary 1 to September 1. The people of the coast counties have been very anxious for some legislation, protec ting this bird. The closed season for doves under an amendment by Mr. George, of Morgan, which was adop ted, is changed to the period between March 15 to July 15. This bill prohibits the baiting, netting or trapping of partridges or Quail by any person at any time ex cept on his own lands. Game wardens are to be appointed by the judges of the uperior courts, thteir cpomensation to be one-half of the fines and for feitures taken in for violation of the act. One of the amendments proposed by Mr. Calvin, of Richmond, prohibited the shooting of more than twenty-five birds by one person on one hunt. "Why should you abut off ft sports man at dinner time." asked Mr. George, of Morgan. “Down my way we don’t oonslder twenty-five birds any hunting at all.” Mr. Calvin thought the shooting of twenty-five birds was sufficient for any real sportsman.. The amendment was aimed against the pot hunter, he said. The amendment was finally lost. The house adopted an amendment requiring judges of superior courts to give the provisions of the act in charge to their grand juries.. Mr Butts, of Glynn, got through his amendment including "marsh hens" in the list of game birds to be pro- t6Cto(li The substitute was then adopted and the bill was passed by a vote ot, 106 to 6. Upon request ot Mr. Harden I the bill was ordered immediately transmitted to the senate. __ * Colored Excursionist* Here.

The excursionists will be in the city three day* PILOTS AGAIN ARE VICTORIOUS Defeated Fitzgerald Yes terday by a Score of 6 to 3 WILE PLAY AGAIN TODAY Fitzgerald Team Still Think They Can Down the Pilots and Will Fight Hard for Victory This Afternoon. By a score of 6 to 3 the Pilots yes terday afternoon defeated the Fitz gerald aggregation in a game which was full of errors, pretty plays, heavy hitting, and evrythhig else that goes to make up both a good and poor game. The game cannot be called a good one, for the fact that it did not have the snap to it that interests the root ers, and the visitors were outplayed by the Pilots In every way, batting, fielding and base running. However, the Fitzgerald team de monstrated that they can play ball. The team did not arrive here until 4 o’clock In the afternoon; had been traveling since early morning, with out anything to eat,, and then rushed on the diamond to play ball. The boys were all pretty well fatigued from their trip, but nevertheless they play ed a very good game and it was the heavy hitting at the right time by the locals that defeated them. Two new men were in the gam with the Pilots yesterday Grimes, on the firing line, and Barrett at first, and both of them played a good game The new pitcher had the visitors at hjs mercy gild up to the fifth a safe Hjk’&ip SMtMKrA • lie ■■•'tit striking out eleven men. The Pilots commenced thier run making in the very first inning, mak ing two runs. They made one in the third, two In the sixth and one in the seventh. The visitors failed to score until the eighth inning, when,, with several hits and that many errors by the locals, three men crossed the home plate. Owing proabbly to the fact that it was reported that the visitors would not arrive in time to play the game, the attendance was small. The following is ttie score; Brunswick.

Seventh straight victory for the Pilots, Barrett, the new man seen on first, yesterday, has recently removed to the city and accepted a position with Bowen &. Thomas.

Yesterday when tne Pilots went to pieces in the eightiln inning he settled down and struck out three men. He is also a sale batter. The game this aiternoon promises to be more interesting than the one yesterday.
