A I j wary game warden selected this child 1 from the many violators and the' i j father had to appear before a justice । of the peace and pay a fine amount-. । ing, with costs, to nearly twenty । dollars. After paying the penalty,) ' the warden very generously offered [ito prosecute all offenders if the; |(father of the boy would only watch' I for victims and send the names to i him. By so doing he would be en- । titled to all the pleasures and thrills which attend the capture of boys । ; under eight years of age. and thereby । I get some compensation for his, ) wounded feelings.
