MARION. April 1.-THE first tam BILE re-
suits of the raid against vIolators of the
fish law here were recorded to-day. Allen
Skinner, o saloonist. entered plea OF
guilty to having had a gill net in his posses
sion, and was fined $50 and costs. August
DE Pair. a veteran of the soldiers home,
also confessed to having taken four fish
with net. For each of these he is fined
s.. and for putting net in the river, So
Commissioners Dennis was here to assist In
the prosecution, but he was not
needed. These men are known to
be only a part of a gang that
for years have been violating the fish
laws with impunity, and the effort to bring
them to book will end only when the viola
tions shall cease. The friends OF the law
are determined to break up the gang. and
put stop to taking fish or game contrary
TO law.

correspondent of the Clay County Enter
prise gave an account, a few weeks ago, OF
the trapping. netting. SEEMING and dyna-
points along Eel river, last year. The ar
ticle has created q Juror among the local
operators" The correspondent stated that
hundreds OF traps, seins and nets were used
in capturing the large fish. and that the
job was completed by using dynamite, thus
destroying thousands of small fish. The
impression seems to prevail that, should the
same methods be employed again this
year somebody will feel the clutches OF
the law.

Many Hospitals in London.

There are nineteen general hospitals in
London. Eleven of them have medical
schools attached, and three, ST. Barthoio-
NEW, st. Thomas and st. Guy, are en-
dowed. The first of these is the wealth
lest and most ancient, having been
founded in ll22. Its net revenue in 1889
was S350,000. 1t owns houses in London
and has also about 1900 acres of land in
various counties. st. Thomas was
founded in 1907, and has revenue of
about $40, 900. st. Guys has revenue
of about Sl30,000. The London hospital
in Whitechapel road, with accommoda-
tons for 776 patients, is the largest in the
metropolis. threats annually also about
100000 out-patients besides trivial cases
not registered. The total number of beds
in the general and special hospitals in
London is $500, of which. $500 are in
constant use. The poor law infirmaries
and the sick wards of the warehouses
furnish 1900 beds and the metropolitan
asylum board has $500 for infectious
cases, the average number in use being
less than l. 00.-New York Sun.

Picturesque Indian Lie.

Any one who desires to see Western
lie IN Its most picturesque and startling
phases is advised by the Spokane Reyiei0
to visit the Coeur d'Aleue Indian reserva-
uon at the present time and behold the
sudden glory Of the Partisan and London
modes transferred to the homes of the
North American Indians. The Indians
recently received $500, 900 from the United
States, IN exchange for portion of their
reservation. They number, all told.
fewer than 500 souls, and the distribution
OF the cash gave every man, woman and
child more than $1,000. This sudden ad-
vent of affluence, added to the natural
wealth possessed by the tribe, has made
this primitive people perhaps the wealth
lest community in the United States. For
weeks after the payment of the money
the merchants on the border of the reser-
walton did rushing business in Partisan
bonnets, gorgeous carriages, swift road
sters, sllver-mounted harness, sealskin
sacks and all the f1nery of modern civil
ization.

YOUNG PEOPLES SOCIETY.

A Pleasant Reception at the West

The Young Peoples Society of the
Westminster Presbyterian Church ten
dered a reception to the junior society
last evening, and preparations had been
made to make it, as it proved to be, a
very pleasant and successful affair.
The classroom of the church was taste
fully decorated for the occasion, and quite
large number of young people were
there.
Rev. r. NJ. Stevenson, pastor of the
church, delivered pleasant talk on the
work OF the society, after which there was
music and singing.
An address of welcome to the juniors
was delivered by VIII Fl. Gibson, and
everything was done to harmonic the
work in hand.
The evening closed with sociability,
games and refreshments, and those CON
cerned were we'll gratifed with the re-

 Manager Frank Leonard says that Keeler of the Binghamptons, whom the New Yorks are trying to corral, is a wonderful ball tosser. Bierbauer of the Pittsburgs has done phenominal work at second. In the last 46 games he has made but seven errors, and his fielding percentage Is .962.
 The New Works have won nine out of the last eleven games played, and this spasmodic burst has caused some of their admirers to behold the champion. ship of '93.
 Tom Brown has not stolen a base in sixteen games.
 Mccarthy has failed but once in six. teen games to bat safely. McMahon of the New Works is of the proper caliber.
 There is some talk of getting up a benefit for Jimmy Calvin. New York has one of the weakest throwing outfields in the country. The Washington club has secured Jim O'Rourke and Catcher Dowse.

When this English cap- tain has spunk enough to handle hi sword without thrusting, let him go and cover my money and stop all this funny talk. He never defeated me Tn New Haven, because the fight was stopped by the chief of police before it was at al end. The case was that Lynn wa thrusting throughout the fight. >
