Nearly a billion more postage
stamps have been issued to the
postofiices Of the United States
since July ! last than were issued
during the whole OF the previous
fiscal year. This is not necessarily
indicative Of a great increase in the
postal business. From lack OF other
facilities for the transmission Of
small sums by mail, stamps have
come to be extensively used which
is n strong argument for the postal
note plan now before congress. A
system il needed by which small
sums may be sent by the mails,
aud this the postal note plan pro-
vides. 1t would be a great advan-
tage to small business interests

discovered that she had taken such a
decided fancy to it that she was refusing

POLES MUST COME DOWN

Compelled to Remove Poles I'm
prOVement Association will
Appeal to Courts.

Officers of the Iglehart Street Improve
Ineht association and a number Of the
members called at the city legal depart
ment yesterday and gave formal notice
that If steps were not taken at once bv
the city to compel the removal Of teIe-
phone poles now encumbering the street
the courts would be appealed to.
AT the meeting of the board of alder
men Tuesday evening, the Northwestern
Telephone company was ordered to re-
move any poles it had on that thorough
tare, but nothing was done regarding
the poles of the Twin City Telephone
company. The entrance of this company
precipitated the war now on and the
property holders say they will fight to
the bitter end.
The Twin City Telephone company
holds a permit to plant poles and strine
wires along the street, but it is claim
ed the permit is not worth the paper if
IS written on. The Twin City companv
does not want to change its plans and
may conclude to fight any attempt to
compel 1t to remove. By an act Of the
council the street has been turned over
to the board OF park commissioners TO he
pouleVarded and curbed, and in that
event the poles will have to come down
whether the companies desire it or not.

TRUANCY AND lDLENESS

The report states that on Jan. 1 there
We're II boys on probation and since that

OPEN WINDOW
ELLA PARKER SUsTAINS SEVERE
INJURIES IN ACCIDENT.

A girl named Ella Parker fell from an
open window in the rear of the apart
ments occupied by James Reed, a railroad
man. at g East Third street. into an
alley way thirty feet below, some time
during Tuesday night, and as a result is
lying in critical condition at the above
address. The woman sustained a bad
bruise near the right eye and on the
side of her head, and she also has in
ternal injuries.
When seen by a G l b q representa- tive
last night. woman giving the name Of
Miss Walbloom, living at 36 East Third
street, stated that she had found the
girl in fainting condition in the street
and took her to the rooms in Reed s
hat. she said she placed her in an open
window and left her for a moment and
while she was gone the Parker woman
reeled and fell out of the window Miss
WalbloOm said that she had sent the
woman to the city hospital, but a thor
ough investigation last night showed that
she had not been taken to the CITY
hospital or any Of the other hospitals in
the city. 1t is understood, however. that
she is being cared for at the Reed
apartments.
The WalblOm woman refused to saw
anything further in regard to the cause.
and the facts surrounding it seem rather
mysterious. When asked as to whetbz
or not she had known the woman be-
fore, Miss WalblOOm admitted that she
had. The police are investigating the
facts in the matter.

GAME LAW VIOLATED
MOOSE IN IRON RANGE
WOODS
CAMPS WERE SLAUGHTER PENS
Deserted Lumber Huts Furnish PrOOf
That Game Wardens Were Not
Observation-Disclosures Like
Iy to BE Made. ~

Information which / believe to be re-
liable said the Rev r. A. Saunderson3
Of Oneota yesterday "n1icates that there
has been a wholesale slaughter of moose
and deer in the woods up on the iron
range during the past winter, presumably
for the purpose of supplying meat TO the
lumber camps
Mr.. Saunderson said that he had OBJ
tanned his information from two highly
responsible residents from the vicinity
of st. Cloud Mimi, who were up in the
country west of Tower for the purpose of
looking UP land. They spent some weeks
in that section, and returned only three
or four days ago.
I'm describing the region to me-" said
Mr.. Saunders0n, they spoke Of the game
and remarked that they had found deer
signs in abundance. Talking along this
line they incidentally mentioned that they
had found abandoned camps of hunters
Wnicn indicated that there had been i'm
mense numbers of moose killed. They
said that the camps resembled slaughter
houses, and that there were moose heads
scattered about chem in such large num-
bers that there could only be one infer
ence, and that was that the animals had
been killed for their meat.
Being a lover of sport. I was curious
regarding the conditions their statements
indicated, and questioned them further
They said that in one camp they saw
numbers Of COW moose heads and that
one of the camps was Enthusiastically deco
rated with the tufts of hair which hang
from the lower Jaw of a bull moose,=the
number used for that purpose being an
unmistakable evidence that a large num-
Der of the animals had been killed by
the former occupants of the camp
The section where the camps were
found is not far from a numbering dis
trlct, where theee were a Jorge number
OF camps in operation last winter, and
gives plausib4I-ty to the theory already
advanced
The game and fish commission will I'M
doubtedly act on the information given
and make a thorough investigation of the
matter.
