The Milwaukee papers Wednesday
gave an account of the arrest of young
man who was masquerading in female
attire. He has sought employment as a
domestic in that city but his strange
actions on the street had caused his ar
rest. In his valise were found several
letters addressed to Harry Hynes Edger-
ton, Wis. This circumstance would
probably disclose his identity as being
the son of Mr.. and Mrs. John Hynes of
Chicago formerly residents Of this
place Young Hynes was here visiting
with his mother a short time ago and
quite likely received the mail while here.
Just what his purpose was in adopting
the dress of the fair sex is not yet dis
covered. The young man was sentenced
to 50 days in the house of correction,
during which time the police department
expect to learn more about the singular
performance of the prisoner.
The attorney generals Office which
has been digging down into the game
law passed last winter, has discovered
some things which the farmer boys that
hunt will be glad to know of. This of
flee CONSTITUTES the law to mean that
hunters are not required to take out gun
licenses unless they hunt with a dog as
we'll as gun. And the provision applies
to all protected game except deer and
water fowl. This construction seems to
be a reasonable one for it is the profess
sional hunters that are expected to pay
the licenses which make up the salary of
the game wardens. So the man who
hunts with liver colored pointers is the
one to put up license fees. But to hunt
duck or deer it is another story.
