Last week Governor Stone signed a bill passed by the legislature which makes radical changes In the fish law of the state. The act became effective at once, and its provisions are so stringent that all persons who fish will do well to acquaint themselves with tho more im portant sections of this law, else they may unknowingly violate the act and be arrested and heavily fined. The new law is the result of several years labor on tho part of Pennsylvania fishermen, or rather of those who desire to see the game fish of tho state fully protected. The members of the Free land Game and Fish Protective Associa tion are very much pleased with the law, as they have had incorporated into the act many of tho suggestions they made to the State Fish Commission. • Tho act signed by the governor last week is a lengthy document, treating the subject in all Its details. The Tri bune gives below, in brief, tlie more im portant sections of the bill: Fish are divided into two classes, game and food. The former class in cludes all species of trout, salmon, bass, pike, sunflsh, pickerel, perch, etc.; those may be caught only with rod, hook and line or handline not having more than three hooks. Fine, $25. The open seasons are as follows: Brook trout, April 15 to July 31; lake trout, January 1 to September 1; sun fish, pike, pickerel, perch, salmon, and all species of bass except striped, June 15 to February 15; striped bass, rock fish, shad and herring, with rod and hook at any time. Fine, $lO for each fish. Must not catch white, rock or straw berry bass less than five inches; brook trout, less than six inches: black bass, seven inches; lako trout, striped bass, pike, pickerel, salmon, nine inches. Fine, $lO for each fish. It is unlawful to catch more than fifty brook trout in any one day. A fine of $lO per fish over that number is provided. The use of nets, seinos and the like is carefully provided for, and lines ranging from $lO to SIOO and imprisonment arc placed in tho law for violations. Fish caught out of season or unlaw fully mijst be returned unharmed to the water. Fine, $lO for eacli fish. It is unlawful to purchase, sell or offer for sale any dead game or food fish, ex cept during the open season and six days thereafter. Fine, $lO for each fish. Explosives are strictly prohibited from use in fishing: nor can they bo used in any waters of the state for any but en gineering purposes, and then only with written permission from tho authorities. Fine, SIOO and six months imprisonment. For planting German carp or using tliis fish for bait, SIOO fine. The Fish Commission, after stocking a stream, may close the same fur threo years. Catching fish in such stream costs $lO per fish. Possession of fishes out of season, or illegal size, or illegal nets, is considered prima facie evidence of guilt. Arrests for violation of tho law may bo made at any time within one year after. One-half of all fines paid by persons arrested and found guilty shall go to the Informer. The new law provides a more efficient system of enforcement than was furnish ed by the act It succeeds. The prosent Fish Commissioners are retained, and they are authorized to appoint and fix tho salaries of twelve wardens, the chief warden to reside in Ilarrisburg. The wardens will bo distributed throughout tho state, each being assigned to a clear ly defined district. Tho real value of tho law as a protection to the game and food fish of the state will be determined by tho efficiency and activity of these wardens. The chief dofoct of the old law was that people in all parts of tho state vio lated Its provisions with very littlo danger'of being detected, and still less of being punished If caught in the act.

One Minute Cough Cure has cured thousands and it will cure you. Safe and sure. Grover's City drug storo. A request for a nine-hour day was presented this morning to tho Drifton company by several of the employes of the shops.
