AT the annual meeting of the state
bord of health in Madison Thursday.
Secretary Wingate will report the re-
suits OF his official investigation of
the cases of two lepers reported to him
from the town of Bristol, Dane county.
On Saturday Dr. Wingate was noti-
ned OF the decision of the school au-

vide school privileges for the children
OF leper and he went out and locked
into the matter The other case of
leprosy is that of boarder in the
family of the leper whose children
were excluded from school. The
school authorities were fearful lest the
other children in the school contract
the disease and refused to permit the
lepers children to attend unless the
father and the boarder were isolated.

DR.. Wingate Monday, and found that
four children are large enough to 90 10

privilege. OF course these children
must be provided for, but l don't

but there is no need for taking
chances on the spread of the disease.

CRUELTY IN FISHING.

Live bait ought never to be used
To take a living minnow and thrust a
hook through it's back, and then to
jerk it so or go feet through the air,
in order that it may wriggle in agony
at the end of the line until it attracts
some other fish to swallow it, is about
as wanton a piece of cruelty as any
one could invent, and unsportsmanlike.
The skilful fisherman will use a fly or
some other device by which the fish
he wishes to capture may be deceived
and caught. The live minnow is the
bait of the blunderer, not of the ex-
pert.
Even experienced fishermen some
times commit another sort of cruelty
which ought never to be practiced.
They think that their fish must be
kept alive as long as possible, and
therefore run a string through its gills
and throw it overheard, to be hauled
after the boat.
This is as foolish as it is cruel. When
the fish has string through its gills
it cannot breathe. 1t is slowly stran-
gled to death, and if it is hauled
through the water after the boat it
is simply drowned in its own element.
Fish, when taken, should be immedi
ately killed. That is the only way to
prevent needless suffering, and we mSy
add that it is the best way to bring
the fish home in good condition.-Our
best fisherman now carry little batons
or clubs and kill the fish as soon as
taken from the water by a sharp blow
on the back of the head.-Greenfield
Courie,.
