Tbe docket contained about 140 cases,
of which 40 were continued. Good
progress was made Monday aud yes-terday,
a number of cases being dis-posed
of. Verdicts were rendered and
judgments prooounced in tbe follow-ing

aud interesting manner the work • f
the past year, which was by far tbe
most successful in the history of the
organization.
During the year the society employed
72 game wardens at an expensts of $6,-
400. The total expense of the yeai's
work was slightly in excess of $13,000.
As a result or the work or the game
wardeBs. 235 convictions for violations
if tbe game laws were secured in 39
couuiies, the number being hi excess
or the aggregate number or convictions
for the four previous years. Rowan led
with 52 convictions and Guilford came
second with 47.
Iu Currituck county, where formerly
it was impossible to secure convictions,
11 men were convicted or shooting
ducks illegally.
One or the most difficult duties or
the wardens is to prevent the shipping
of quail to points outside tbe state, aud
Secretary Pearson says there was a
great decrease in this practice during
the past year.
One of the best of the game laws is
that one which makes it a misde-meanor
to hunt on land without the
permission of the owner. This is a
great protection to the farmers, who
are showing a more decided sympathy
with the aims and purposes of the Au-dubon
society. There were 110 convic-tions
for violations of this law during
tbe past year.
