Among the innovations suggested
by the Lake Carriers Is an insurance
for anne who sustain injuries, or
lose their lives, during the navigation
season. 1t Is proposed that a certain
percentage of wages shall be withheld
to be applied to this fund, and that
members Of the association shall also
make contributions. This proposition
is deserving of hearty approval. Sea-
men as a class are i~mprovident. The
manner In which they spend their
money Is ~proverbial. Many OF them
have families ashore who are depend
emit upon their earnings. and while
the government provides a free hos
pital for injured seamen. there il no
temporary provision for the family de-
lost the family is often left In sore
straits. More or less opposition will
be encountered from the men who will
derive the benefits. Their pay Is small
at best, and any reservation for in

a sound basis, the insurance plan will
not only become a permanent benefit
for a class which needs protection. but
It will become popular with the very

II a republican shakes hands with
you this warm weather you can wa
ger he is either seeking nomination
for one of the many offices to be dis
pensed year hence or has a friend
whose cause he is boosting.
Chief interest, of course, centers on
the congressional nomination. Char

ponent of Congressman e.. W. Prince,
would no doubt make another battle
if he thought his party friends would
support him as energetically as they
have in former campaigns. as now
there is better show for landing the

is no longer a voter in the Tenth dis
trict. Hon. William Jackson. NJ. M.
Sturgeon and Ex-Mayor William Mo
Conochie, of this city. and Mayor p. H.
Vessel and Frank e. Allen, of Moline,
are also talked of.
Marsh May Get in Game.
Ben Marsh. the old warrior from
Hancock county. which is now in the
district with Rock island, is said to
have his lightning rods out. He is
we'll thought of by the republicans up
this way and might make it interest
ing in this county even for a home
candidate if he chose to get down to
work here. James Mckinney, of
Mercer. is spoken of favorably. but
his friends say he would not give up
his fat job as railroad and warehouse
commissioner to enter the race for
congressional honors.
For the Legislature.
Another lively contest that the
party will have is that over the legis-
lative offices. 1t is understood that

BIG CATCHES MADE WITH NETS

The prevalence of glaring violations
of the fish and came laws slong the

sible for these violations to exist with
out the knowledge of the state ii n
and game warden aud his deputies
Information comes from a man who
has rowed down the river from St.
Paul to this city that in numerous
places large nets are so plainly visible
as to render it impossible for passers
to miss seeing them. Numbers of
large nets and traps of various de

the beach with no attempt to conceal
them, and those in the river are fire.
quently taken up in broad daylight
and in plain view of passing steamers.
In several places in the immediate
vicinity of this city men may be seen
cleaning and preparing for market
large quantities of fish caught in these
nets, and apparently are not in the
slightest fear of molestation, although
they can hardly fail to be aware of
the existence of the laws which they
are daily violating HE ARGUS in
formant saw a catch estimated by the
fisherman at nearly three thousand
pounds taken from one net and was
Informed that the entire lot would be
cleaned, packed and Immediately

Left Dead In Heaps
In many places those varieties of
fish which are unmarketable are care
lessly thrown from the nets onto the
beach, and at numerous points the air
is foul with the stencil of the decay
ing fish.
1t seems that about all that can be
expected of the men who have these
interests of the state in hand is the
taxing of fish from the river and put
ting them in other small lakes and
streams to breed, where in most cases
they fail to do so.

MOUSE MAKES NOISE
JUST LIKE A BURGLAR.

Every body knew the town was full
of crooks during the week just passed
and many a wakeful night was spent
by nervous folk in apprehension vain
A certain citizen tells about the
loss Of couple of hours good sleep
at time when he was hard worked
and needed all the rest that came to
his lot. His wife is a much lighter
sleeper than he is, and so of course
she was the first to hear shortly after
one midnight early in the week, Pc
culiar sound down stairs. She
aroused her husband and then he
heard it, too, and with some trepida-
ton went forth to discover the cause
thereof. A search of the house failed
TO locate either any intruder or any
means by which one could have got
ten into the domicle. The pair re-
turned to bed and in a short time the
same sound was heard again.
This time the investigation was
most thorough and the man of the
house was at his wits end over the
matter. and about ready to believe
there was something in tue stories of
the supernatural. when his eye fell
upon the closed door between the two
portions of his front hall. A thought
struck him. and upon looking closely,
with the aid of light. he saw the
marks where a mouse had been at
work. The small rodent had been
shut in the hall and the door had
acted as a sounding board when it
attempted to guaw way out. pro-
ducing a sound much louder than a
real burglar would ever thought of
making. The first search had fright
ened it away without letting it out.
and it had returned to its work when
things had quieted down.

REMARKABLE CASE OF
SUSPENDED INCUBATION

Many stories have gained currency
of the manner in which eggs have in
cubated while in process of shipment
or on the market during the hot spell
of last month The following is along
the same line and shows a rather re-
markab:e case of suspended incuba-
ton:
The ordinary egg is supposed to
hatch in three weeks under proper
conditions when it has the constant
attention of the hen. Usually if a hen
leaves the nest for time when incu-
baton has begun it is fatal to the
chick James Hogan is a farmer liv-
ing few miles down the river. He
has among his livestock q speckled
hen who hides her nest out in the tall
weeds, but who is very poor mathe-
matician and apparently never has
become cognizant of the fact tnat one
and one are two, two and one are
three, etc. AT any rate, when her
nest is located by mem bers OF the
family they find no difficulty in
so bamfOozling her with a sim
gle nest egg that she has been
hhO"h W oAA AZ q
straight line without ever suspecting
that cruel trick had been played
upon her. Thus the winter would
steal upon her. and her maternal in
stinct, still unsatistied. would keep
her poor all winter and set her to
work early next spring in pursuit of
the safe delusive shadow.
This year she came out looking
worse than usual. the strain and
worry having worn her down to a
veritable frazzled edge and it began
to look as though she would not sur
vive the season. The warm weather
which did so much damage to others
was her salvation. The old hen made
the usual laundering job of hiding
her nest out and the first egg was left
as nest egg by the members of the
family who picked the daily crop and
things ran on just as in previous
seasons just six weeks after the
first egg of the season was laid Mrs.
Hogan was astonished to see the old
hen in the yard with small chick,
and upon going to the nest found
that the nest egg had, after double the
usual time of Incubation, developed |
into a young fowl. Not another egg
did the hen lay and she has been !
happy ever since.
