An act of Congress last year allows the United States Department of Agriculture to I control the killing of all migratory I birds, whether game, song or insec- | tivorous, but the statute, instead of itself prescribing open and closed sea-, sons and other regulations, places such details entirely in the hands of the agricultural officials. l.ast spring the State Game Com- , mission, for the convenience of Penn sylvania sportsmen, prepared a sum mary of the state laws and the na- i tion:4 regulations and printed this summary upon the back of the resi- j dent hunters' license certificates. I "When this summary was prepared • and printed," said Pr. Kalbfus to-day, I "every statement therein was correct. Lately changes have been made by j the Washington authorities and now J I desire to call the attention of hunt- i ers to differences between the regu- ! lations as they now exist and as they j are printed on the back of the resi- j dent hunters' licenses for 1914." Summary of Rules Pr. Kalbfus then gave out the fol- i lowing summary: "At the time these licenses were j prepared it would have been illegal to kill a reedbird In Pennsylvania at any ' time, the connnittee of the Agricui- ; tural Department at Washington hav- ' ing classed this bird as an Insectiv-1 orous bird under the name of bobo link. Lately this regulation has been! altered and sportsmen in Pennsylva nia are permitted to shoot bobolinks under the name of reedbirds in Penn sylvania during tho months of Sep tember and October. "Under the regulations from Wash ington. as in force at the time the resident hunters' licenses were pre pared, wild waterfowl, exception swan and woodduck. could be killed in this state from September 1 to December 15, inclusive. Under a regulation re- | cently promulgated by the Agricui- j tural Department at Washington the open season for wild waterfowl cepting swan and woodduck, opens in Pennsylvania on October 1, instead of September 1, and extends to January 15, inclusive, instead of closing on December 15, as stated on the back of the license. As it was necessary before these regulations may become effective, to publish them for three' months, and as this publication was I not started at Washington until June 27. 1914. the time limit as fixed for publication cannot affect the opening of the season for wild waterfowl in i Pennsylvania for this year. The ducks I may, therefore, be legally killed in Pennsylvania both under our state law and under the national regulations! from September 1 to January 15, In clusive. "In 1915 the open season for wild; waterfowl will begin October 1 instead of September 1. "Swan and woodduck cannot be I legally killed in Pennsylvania before September 1, 1918."

That is what a veteran baseball man says, and the truth of his remark is shown by the fact that in contests of these varieties the Cubs. Giants and Cardinals, now having a three-handed scrap for the National League gon falon. have been much more success ful than the oilier live teams. Up to date 70 games have been played in the National League tn which the issue was settled in either the ninth or extra innings or on tho basis of 1 to 0. The club that has shown the great est aptitude for getting the decision in tight games is Chicago, with a per centage of .714; New York following, with .636. The Phillies are third, with .579. The Cardinals are fourth, with .550; the Braves fifth, with .542; the Pirates sixth, with .368, and Cin cinnati and Brooklyn tied for last, with .333. The Cardnals and the Cube have won the most games in the ninth inning (five); the Braves are setting the pace in 1 to 0 wins, with six, and the Phillies have taken the greatest number of overtime events, eight. Brooklyn has won one 1 to 0 contest and Cincinnati thus far has not reg istered a victory in an extra-inning affair. St. Louis two ninth-Inning de feats on Monday and yesterday were their first ninth-inning losses of the season. The record of the National League teams in 1 to 0 and extra-inning games and games decided in the ninth inning up to date is as follows: Standing of the Nerve lx-ague W. L. P.C.

IDHESS Hi MM STOPS Mffi GAMES I Only Two Games Were Played in the Big Leagues—Athletics Appreciate Rest i The storm king reigned in the east yesterday and pushed the baseball bug off the map. Only one game was played in the Tri-State, the Chicks beating the Red Roses four to one. , Hundreds of fans here were disap pointed when it was announced that the match at Allentown had been call ed on account of rain, but a double header will be played to-day and ■ much will depend on the result. Cot-kill's men rested quietly at tho hotel yesterday, and to-day appear to be on edge for the big battle this aft ernoon. It is not known what men Captain Cockill will order on tho mound. Chabeck is the guess of most' of the fans for the first game, and it may be possible to use tho iron man in a part of the second. The game yesterday between the Athletics and Detroits was not pre vented by rain, but called off on ac count of darlmess, although rain fell after a wait of ten minutes in the dark. The Detroiters packed up their grips and made ready for the trip to Washington, while the Mackmen were not sorry that the game was off, as they have three double-headers in a row with St. Louis, to-day, Mondav and Tuesday. Not a game was played in the Amer ican League and the Boston game at Pittsburgh was also postponed with National League. Although the Boston Braves had to ! sit tight at Piratetown they gained on j the day, for the Giants went down be- ' fore the Cincinnati Reds and thus re- i duce the New Yorkers' lead to just one i full game.
