salaries* shall bo independent of any J
salary or fee paid to the sheriff and
all of his deputies not acting as hiKh-j
way officers, and the sheriff shall not j
be required to account for the salaries j
provided for herein as fees of office
or as salary to the sheriff or his dep-
uties."
After June IS highway officers in
Texas will be required by law to wear
a distinctive uniform and badge as
•emblems of authority. This rcqurie-
ment is made in House bill No. 27,
which Is commonly known as a 90-day
law, (hat is, to go into effect 90 days
after the adjournment of the legisla-
ture, since it did :io: receive the nec-
essary two-thirds vote to put it into
|lmmediate effect.
The emergency clause recites that
officers should display emblems of
authority in the form of uniforms and
badges because "many highway men,
thieves and robbers are posing as
highway officers and thereby are
committing crimes against the peaee
and dignity of the state and, the fact
that certain officers making arrests
unwarranted by the law or the evi-
dence in order to enable them to col-
lect fees of office." Traps to catch
motorists are forbidden in the act.
The new law amends the act of the
thirty-sixth legislature, providing for
highway officers, and makes Section
4 thereof read as follows:
"Said deputy shall be paid a salary
out of the general county fund not
to exceed $150 per month, the salary
to be fixed by the commissioners'
court, and in addition thereto the
commissioners' court is hereby autho-
rized to provide at the expense of
the county such uniforms, badges and
caps, badges to be not less than three
inches in dimension, and other neces-
sary equipment, to include a motor-
cycle and its maintenance, as is nec-
essary for them to discharge their!
duties. The salaries paid to said dep-|
uties acting as such highway officers j
shall be paid direct to said deputies >
Game Laws Changed
by the Legislature
The game laws of the state were!
completely rewritten by the thirty-
ninth legislature. The season on all
game is shortened by two weeks, the j
daily and weekly bag limits are re-
duced and two distinct hunting zones
are prescribed by the bill reported
by the conference committee.
Under the new law the bag limit
on bucks is reducad from three to
two, and all bucks killed must have
a pronged horn. The open season on
deer and turkey is made November
10 to December 31, and the bag limit
on turkey is three gobblers.
Two hunting zones are created for
quail, doveB, ducks and geese. This
is in conformity with the federal larw.
The I. & G. N. railroad from Larado
to Longview to Texarkana is made the
boundary line. In the north zone the
open season on quail is November
16 to January 1; on doves September
and Octoli' v, on ducks and geese Oc-
tober 10 tu January 1. In the south
zone the open season on quail is
December 1 to January 16; doves No-
vember and December; ducks and
geese November 1 to January 31. Bag
limits: Quail 12 in one day, 36 in one
week; doves 15 in one day, 45 in one
week; ducks 25 a day and 50 a week;
geese four a day and 12 a week; prai-
rie chickens, open season all over
Texas from September 1 to Septem-
ber 10, inclusive; bag limit five in
one day and 10 during the open sea-
son.
Open Reason on squirrels, bcHh
zones, months of May, June, July,
October, November and December,
bag limit of 10 a day.
This net provides for the license
anjd regulation of shooting clubs, the
creation of Rame sanctuaries and pre-
serves, the issuance of permits for
propagating game and raises the fee
for a non resident hunting license to
$25. The present resident hunting
license law is unchanged; that is,
a license costing $2 is required only
for hunting outside the county of his
residence.

Garages Can Now Sell
Gasoline on Sunday
Governor Miriam A. Ferguson has
signed a bill passed at the recent ses-
sion of the legislature, making it law-
ful for garages, filling stations and
others to sell gasoline and lubricants
on Sunday. Heretofore it has been
illegal to sell these things on Sunday,
but only in a very few instances has
the law been enforced. The* passage
of this law will conclude ft long con-
troversy between those in favor of
Sunday "blue laws" and the opposing
of them.
Officers Restricted in
Search and Seizure
DEARIEl DARLING!
They were a pulr of wallflowers,
and were doing their best to be spite-
ful to each other.
"I wonder, d'ear," said the younger
of the two not-so-young women, "if I
shall lose my looks, too, when I get
to be your age?"
"You'll be luck if you do, darling,"
snapped the other, sweetly.
The playing of cards and dice was
forbidden in Spain as early as A. D.
1378 by John I, king of Castile.
Send your hat to a master
rromlscious search and seizure by
peace officers went under the ban re-
cently when Governor Miriam A. Fer-
guson signed the bill redefining and
enlarging the places for which war-
rants are necessary.
The bill, which becomes a law in
June, asserts that "Persons, peace of-
ficers and state rangers, to search pri-
vate residences, actual place of habi-
tation, places of business, person or
personal possessions of any person
must first obtain a search warrant."
Violations of the law are< made a
misdemeanor and the minimum fine
is $100. The maximum fine lr $600
or a jail sentence not to exceed six
months or both.
When the bill passed the legislature
opposition was made on the grounds
that the prohibition enforcement of-
ficers would be crippled in their ac-
tivities.
