Syllabus

<p>Game laws—Deputy game protectors—Compensation—Constables— Acts of March 22, 1889, P. L. 17 and April 11, 1908, P. L. 168.</p> <p>1. Deputy game protectors appointed under the provisions of the Act of April 11,1903, P. L. 163, are not entitled to the reward of $10.00 payable to constables under the Act of March 22, 1899, P. L. 17, for securing a conviction for violation of the game laws.</p> <p>2. If the Act of April 11, 1903, P. L. 163, should be construed as giving deputy game protectors the right to demand compensation from counties, the act would be unconstitutional, inasmuch as there is nothing in its title to indicate that counties theretofore exempt from paying anything to game protectors, were made liable for their compensation.</p>
