PERSONS, CAN HUNT
AND FISHON OWN LAND
Man Need Not Have a License In
Order to Enjoy Sport on
His Own Land.
Does a man have to take out a
hunting or fishing license in order
that he may indulge in these
forms of sport on his own land?
It has been decided that he does
not.
Where a stream is the boundary
line between one man's land and
that of another the owner of the
land can fish and hunt as much
as he likes so long as he stays on
his own premises. He can have a
pole and line long enough to reach
clear across the stream and can
take fish from the other side, but
his feet must stand on his own
land. If he owns the land on both
sides of the river, of course he is
all right.

Dean was on the supreme bench

The engino aud tender broke from
the train wl.eu the engineer applied
the emergency brakes, and leaving the
rails plunged, down an embankment.
The train stopped with a jerk that
threw the passengers from their seats,
but remained upright ou the tracks.

'llio accident, occurred when the
train hud gathered full speed going
down the incline from the elevated
tracks In Indiana harbor. The tender
left the tracks and humped along the
ties. Kngineer Summers applied the
emergency brakes and the strain
broke the coupling between the tender
and baggage car.
The total delay to the fust train be
cause of the accident was two hours.
A careful Investigation failed to re

the track and railroad men seemed
unable to explain how it occurred.
"We had Just got started at good
speed on that part of the track on
the surface grade after coming down
the elevation In Indiana Harbor," said
Engineer Summers. "First I noticed
the tender was causing more than the
usual amount of dust, then I felt a
tug, as It left the rails, and threw on
the emergency brake. That broke the
coupling and the engine went off."
"No one on the train was hurt,"
said Conductor A. C. Ross, "though
all were Jam-d a little when the train
stopped so quickly. We were going
at full speed and stopped within a few
feet after the brakes were applied.'
