CLUBS MAY COMBINE.
Effort to Create a Friendly Feeling
Between Wisconsin Hunting
ORGANIZATIONS.

Oshkosh, Wis, Oct 16.-[Special IA
movement is now on foot among the mem
bers of the different hunting clubs that
own and easelands in this vicinity for the
extension of certain privileges and
courtesies among themselves by which
a member of any club can hunt on tho
preserves of any other club The mat
ter. was first agitated in this city last
week, and will proba bly, be brought to a
successful conclusion The clubs di-
rectly interested in the scheme are the
Poygan Gun club, which is composed of
Chicago gentlemen; the Wolf River
Hunting and Fishing club, a Stevens
Point organization; the Butte des Morris
Shooting club, and the Fox River Hunt
ing and Fishing club, which are Oshkosh
| organizations. A conference of the
leading officers of the different clubs will
soon be held and the matter given seri-
Gus attention.
Local sportsmen state that some time
next winter an effort will be made for
the consolidation of all these organiza.
will result in making one vast game
preserve of the extensive marshes, which
are owned and controlled by these clubs.
The intention at present is to call a
meeting some time during the winter
months, at which at least two delegates
from each club will be admitted, and
al attempt made to bring about the
aforementioned results. The Poygan
Gun club controls almost all the hunting
grounds on Lake Poygan; the Stevens
Point organization has lands on Lake
Winneconne and Clark's bay, while the
Oshkosh clubs hold the marshes of Lake
Butte des Morris and also some lands on
clubs were merged into one they could
enforce a better observance of the law
and work together and in harmony in the
protection of the game on the entire wa.
tiers of this vicinity. Besides, this would
offer extensive grounds for hunting pur-
poses to the members Of the different
clubs, while now they are restricted TO
the confines of their own territory.
During the recent visit here of a l.
of prominent Chicago sportsmen anc-
matter was suggested which would De
productive of much good if carried to a
successful termination. The plan as
outlined by Sheriff Pease of Cook coun-
ty ILL.,. was to have a general meeting
of sportsmen from the upper Mississippi
River for the purpose of formulating
uniform law for the better protection OF
game and urging the matter upon the
legislatures upon the various states
One of the principal matters which will
be brought up for discussion will be
law to abolish spring shooting, practice
which is generally denounced by all true
sportsmen. At present the laws of
neighboring states are widely conflicting
especially on the point just mentioned,
and sportsmen realize the folly of trying
to protect game in one state at any par
ticular period while no protection exists
in neighboring localities. AT present
the state game laws are enforced quite
strictly in this locality, especially since
the formation of the various hunting
clubs which keep guards employed to
prevent both trespassing on club pre-
serves and hunting out of season.

THE POPE OBJECTS.
Ban is Placed on Congresses Of Re-
ligion = Catholics Must
Keep AlOof.

Philadelphia, Pa, Oct. 16-Pope Leo
has written an important letter to the
Catholic hierarchy of America condem-
ming the assemblage of congresses of re-
ligion. The letter has been delivered
to Archbishop Ryan of this city and to
ali other archbishops. 1t was the main
subject considered at the recent assem-
blying of the archbishops at Washington,
but the efforts at secrecy were success
full in keeping the Pope's letter from pub
licity. What steps the archbishops took
cannot be learned, but with the views
of the Pope thus clearly expressed it Is
doubtless that the American church will
anathematize congresses of religion III
the same way that an Introduction was
placed on Catholic participation i'll the
knights of Pythias, Odd Fellows and
other secret societies.
The congress of religions held at Chi
cago as feature of the Worlds fair
was the most notable gathering of that
character in recent years, bringing to-
gether not only the many sects of Chris
tianity but also Hindoos, Brahmins, Bud
dhsts and Theosophists. The gather.
ing was SC notable that it's projectors
have expected it would lead to further
congresses, merging all sects and creeds.
Whether Pope Leo's disapproval is par
ticularly in reference to the Chicago con-
gress cannot be learned, but as that was
the last and by far the most conspicuous
gathering of the kind, the letter will be
viewed with special reference to it.

lNCENDIARY AT WORK.
One Of the landmarks at Berlin
Wiped Out by the
Flames.

Berlin, Wis, October 14.-[Special.1-
The old sawmill and a large part of the
lumber yard owned by August Teimer
was destroyed by fire last night. The
fire was discovered in the boiler-house on
the west side and soon spread over the
entire building and into the yards. Sew
eral surrounding factories and mills were
for time threa tened, but the fremen
soon had the flames under control and
confined them to an area of two acres
in extent. The mill had not been in
use for several years and most of the
machinery had been removed. 1t was
used to store the finer grades of ium'
Der, all of which was destroyed. Many
thousand feet of the coarser lumber was
destroyed besides several hundred cedar
posts and many thousand shingles. The
loss is estimated at $4,000, with no lnsur~
Ance.
The fire was undoubtedly of incendiary
origin as an attempt was made to burn
it about month ago, but the blaze was
discovered and extinguished by the chief
of police. The owners have suspicious
of who the incendiary was, but refused
to divulge anything further.

marching men who made up the parade
Wednesday, and cheer after cheer fol
lowed some of the turnouts from one end
Of the line to the other. The parade was
a couple. of hours passing a given point
but the people did not notice the flight

Wednesday nights illumination was
repeated on Thursday night and it was
a great illumination. Electric lights by
the thousands. glowing with red, white
and blue light, covering hundreds OF
store fronts and hanging in arches over
the streets, flooded the city with light
and converted the business section into
IL fairyland. Many very beautiful illu-
limitations were put up Wednesday, one
of the finest being a bell on the front of
the Telephone building on Broadway.
1t was composed of hundreds of small
lights, it's outline in strong white lights
and it's center in vivid crimson and green.
The big star on the city hall looked fine,
but the arc lights higher up spoiled the
outline of the top of the tower. Lines
of white lights up and down the store
fronts, particularly on East Water
street, produced a striking effect, and
the bands of light encircling some of
the high roofs could be seen for miles.
The front of the First National bank
fairly blazed and there were endless
small pieces lighting the fronts OF other
places. Several buildings varied the pro
gramme by providing an old-fashionedl
candle illumination, placing row of
candles in every window. Many private
residences had their yards Illuminated
with Chinese lanterns and red and green
lights burned along upper Grand ave
nue. as, the parade passed.. The long
front of the Plankinton, with every Win
dow lighted looked great" as everybody
said. Altogether it was one of the finest
foundations the city ever saw.

Heavy Damages to the Potato Crop al

pleted the destruction to potatoes in the
hill, the ground having been frozen in
thick, large chunks and fully half the
remaining crop of undug potatoes are
ruined. The freeze of the 9th instant
was severe enough, but this one was
worse. Farmers are about discouraged
as prices are so exteremly low that to
dig their potatoes now and have to leave
half of them on the ground makes the
expense of digging more than the pota
toes will bring in market. Many think
possibly the price may advance owing
and the loss will reach many hundred
bushels. Some farmers will lose from
100 to 500 hnshels bv freezing.
