State Came Warden lledrick is (preparing a bill which will take cat 1 Its|j on! of the "game lisli" class lor tile iiittic. This will allow the ship ment and in:.rkoHiu:, of this class ol fish. In tbe old days fishermen along the tri made lair wages calcii ing'cii 1 --.:- for the market, but un der the p-cseut law tips was elimin ated. Another provision of his bill is to allow the use of nets, traps und ill row lines in the Missouri river. while eliminating tliein from the wa iters of the state seneiiilly. His theory is that there is no reason why the fish of the Missouri river should not be utilized as a fnfid product, by the people of the state, and that witli .open fishing facilities in the river I there might be shipments *to points within rail eomniunicat bin of the river. iv id ii in a it I a a in it on the P.ircli bill to change the li- 1 a a 0 uniformity.

D.—That the boasted civilization of the so-called Christian nations, because of the war in Europe, has become tin object of con tempt. to residents o.' even the more remote portions of China, and that American, missionaries are being sneered at by the Chinese is the statement made in a letter which has been received from, .losluia C. Jensen, South Dakota man, who is stationed at Ningvuen, Szechuen, china", where lie is a missionary. "P.ul perhaps the greatest, hard ship that the war has brought upon us," he writes, "is the attitude of Chinese toward the war. Not a few have taken up a rather sneering at titude toward our religion. They remind us that the countries now at war have been undeV Christian in uenee for many centuries, and ask us vvliv Christianity was not strong and effective enough to keep them til peace. And the question is some thing of a poser." Dr. .lease, nwrites that there is an interesting situation at the mission station where he makes Ills head quarters. Among the foreign col ony there are two American families, a family consisting of an English husband and a (Jernian wife, in ad dition to a number of French C.'ath lolic priests. When Ihe members of the colony gel together and the I subject of the war is by accident or otherwise brought up il requires the I utmost tact to prevent a miniature war among the colonisls because of their divided sympathies for the European belligerents. Dr. Jensen is stationed at a point about a month's travel from the coast, and yet, notwithstanding their remoteness, Ihe war Is affecting the missionaries and others to a consid erable extent. For example, an or der of goods which before the. war cost them in ('hiiiesf* currency now cosis thoni $2.'!fi. In addition there is ti good round sum added on the goods in the form of insurati.ee against war risk. The American mlssiotiiiries are pttid in American money, but before they can utilize their salaries they have lo ex change the money for Chinese cur rency or bullion.
