Mr. Condit pointed out that 100 years aero it was no unusual thing for ministers to get drunk, gambling was common and that Princeton CoMefre was founded on a' sale of lottery tickets of $2.50 each to church members, that slavery was defended by Christians, and that in 1S0S white men were sold as slaves at public auction in Philadelphia.

FORBID NETTING IN CAYUGA LAKE FOR NEXTTWO YEARS 1je Conservation Commission has announced its decision to issue no net licenses for taking fish in Cayuga Lake for a period of two years. At the expiration of this period it is the intention of the commission to hold another hearing similar to the one recently held at Seneca Fails, for the purpose of ascertaining the sentiment of lue sportsmen and formulating a definite policy for Cayuga Lake. It is believed that sufficient time will have elapsed to enable the sportsmen to determine whether the exclusion of nets from the lake improves the fishing.

This question has been one of great interest to locaf sportsmen, and the announcement of the above decision will be welcome to the majority, who believe fiat with the exclusion of nets from the lake the fishing will materially improve. The local fish and game club has made a vigorous fight against the netting and the officers of the club say they are determined that no nets shall again be licensed for Cayuga Lake.
