Constables and Forest Fires.
new company
The constables throughout the state
are receiving a circular from the state
commissioners of forestry, calling their
| attention to two acts passed by the last
legislature, making constables ex-offi-
cio fire wardens. They must report to
court the firet week of quarter sessions
| of any or no forest or timber land fires.
If they extinguish any fires they will
be compensated at fifteen cents per
| hour, and assistants will receive twelve
| cents an hour. Any person who is
| called upon to act as an assistant must
| either serve or undergo a fine and im-
prisonment. No county is to pay more
| than $500 in year for such work. One-
{ half of the amount for such work is to
| be paid by the county and the other
| half by the state.
