In the Willow River Fish Cases that
have been attracting considerable at
tention among sportsmen and other
people, Judge Bailey recently rendered
a decision that Frank Wade, the
defendant, was not a trespasser while
trouting Ia the stream from boat,
and that the Willow River Club could
enter no valid complaint. The case is
thus summed up by the judge:

that the defendant, in entering upon
the stream in question, which was a
nayigable stream within the decisions
OF the supreme court of this state,

aud fishing therein from said boat
with hook and line, not coming in
contact with either the bed OF the
stream or the banks bordering there
on, where the stream flows through
the plaintiffs land, committed no act
Of trespdss. That he was lawfully
upon the stream while in such boat
and neither injured any of the prop

Much careful and well-drected
work has been bestowed upon the
Greenwood cemetery this spring, and
our solemn city on the hillside looks
gloriously green and reposeful these

and shrubbery unusually fresh; and
the flower nc seen here and there
along Ie lots, tie closely cropped
lawns, The blossommg shrubs and the
ever cleaning monuments, make the
scene rather sparkling and pleasant,
instead of unhappy one.
The May Fair given last Thursday
by the ladies of the Lutheran church,
was characterized by those signs OF
marked success that always seem to
wait upon the doings of the Lutheran
ladies and to crown the work of their
hands. The signs of success to be
noted on this occasion varied, of
course, with the time of day. AT
noon it was the orderly array OF crisp
aprons. the rows of potted plants, the
agreeable ladies in attendance, and
that general air Of ''please buy" that's
50 hard to get, you know, without
saying it right out. At night the
dazzling white tables, just too inviting
TO pass by, the people all about them,
and-best Of all-the absence of those
very aprons that seemed so promising
at noon and hadn't. spoken their
silent "pleaSe buy" in vain-all this
was just as sure evidence of success at
nightfall. as was the snug sum in the
treasurer's hands after the doors were
finally closed.
