A BIG SEIZURE / / !,
Game Warden Trebby Con-
flscates Seven Saddles
w. .-.... of Venison.
THE SHIPPER ESCAPED.
Billed at Crow Wing for St.
I. Paul and Shipped as House, I
r. hold Goods. IS.

Game Warden Trebby made an
important seizure under the game
laws Monday afternoon 1T Crow
Wing station, but the vi0later of the
law has 50 fnr escaped arrest. ="
A few days ago a man drove up
to the little railway station at Crow
Wing. and stated that he had some
boxes of household goods which lie
wanted shipped to st. Paul.
He gave his name as p. Miller, and
the boxes were shipped To- T. Cable,
st Paul. After receiving his freight
receipt for tn" consignment Miller
Immediately drove away. .
Az there Was NO train Tor several
hours. the station agent put the
boxes in the freight house. and In
handling the boxes one Of them was
slightly broken, revealing the fact
that instead Of containing house
hold goods hey were filed with
venison saddles, packed in ice and
sa wlust.
The station agent held the boxes
and notified the authorities, and
TrebbS was or Tered tn &" to crow
Wing and make the seizure.
On investigation there was found
to he seven saddles, all III good con-
dition. and well packed, and but for
the accident that happened to the
box while being handled would likely
have run the gauntlet and reached
the intended destination safely.
Trebby took possession of the boxes
and their contents and reported the
result of his trip to State Game
Warden Fullerton, from whom he
has hince received instructions to
ship the c.nfiscated venis0n to st.
Paul.
There is hut little chance of the
parties being caught, as the station
agent did not know Miller. and it ia
difficult to even surnise where the
deer were killed.

a Little Fixing When Needed Saves Money
AZ We'll as the Road.
Poor natl ms mako poor roads and
keep them poor Yet poor nation
might increase its riches by the making
of good roads. We arc not poor ma
tion, aud it ought to be u matter OF
pride no lea than Of business tact to
keep up with tho other nations in this
matter of feasible roads. What they
mean to the farmer in the saving of re-
pairs, of live stock and of rolling stock.
what they mean to the women who wish
to stir out Of the house in bad weather,
what they mean to the children who
have TO go to distant schools, what they
moan in looks and cleanliness, what
they mean il tho facility they afford for
transportation and for pleasure travel
have bccn gone over again and again,
yet tho lesson has not been fully learned.
England and other European coun.
tries do not wait until road has been
kicked to pieces by tho horses or guttered
by rains before mending it. They keep
men ut work on it. And it is estimated
that in such case the repairs are not
over $50 q mile per annum, since the
work does not take all. Of the time OF
one man indeed, the work is often con-
signed to superannuated oiti zens who
are no longer in competition with the
people who have indoor trades or are
employed or farms. A little tinkering,
Q little rock breaking, little ramming
home of loose stone when frost or rain
has heaved it up will keep q road in
good condition. and the man who does
this humble yes useful work can keep
some miles Of it is shape.
In some Of the poorer countries Of
Europe these road members work for
what the benefited citizens choose to
give them in the way of aims. but that
10 not businesslike, and it ought not to
do here. We want able men and are able
to pay them, and in the country we
have no doubt that able men could be
engaged to repair the highways at $50
q mile per annum. For lack of immedi-
ate repair it costs hundreds Of dollars
where it might cost one. In the end we
shall learn that the best is tho cheapest
and that constant watchfulness alone
keeps things at their best.
