BIRDS AND FISH
An Exhibit by Game and Fish Com.
8 ~ mission at Fair.


In former years the state game and fish
commission has been hampered in making
an exhibition at the state fair by lack
of space, but this year the fish and the
birds will have a building all to them
selves. R. Fullerton, executive agent, has
arranged for the building formerly known
as the s"women's building and he, and
his deputies have been very busy placing
and arranging the fish and birds for fair
week. The work was so far advanced
yesterday as to admit of waters being
turned into the huge aquariums in which
the fish are to show themselves both day
and night There will be five kinds Of
trout, all of them big fellows, represent
ing white, German, brown spotted, steel
head, rainbow and land-locked salmon va
rieties. There will be lot Of each va
riety and their neighbors will be bass,
pike, pickerel, crappies and several other
varieties of lake fish that the state is
interested in propagating The silver
cells that are to occupy one of the aqua
RUINS are likely to interest the children
especially. The game birds of the state
cannot be shown alive, but the stuffed
specimens are lifelike. A large number
of specimens of birds and fish from the
museum at the state fish hatchery will
be a part Of the exhibit and photographs
that were taken at numerous places by the
warden and his deputies, will be laid out
for examination.

Jaffray and Marfield Cap ture Pioneer Press

Minikahda golfers came to the fore yes
terday afternoon in the state tournament
at the Town and Country club. Jaffray and
MARRIED. winning the Pioneer Press trophy
handily. The Minikahda club will now
have the custody of this trophy for a.
year.
Cold, raw weather and a high wind made
good golf difficult both in the morning and
in the afternoon: In the Pioneer Press
cup contest a Scotch foursome, the best
ball of Jaffray and MARRIED., which won
the trophy, was 49, and the second best
score was made by Bend and Doran of
Town and Country, 81 Albert and Brooks
of Minil<ahda were third with 49,
A feature OF the day was the showing
of the kids" who, for the first time
were a factor in a state competition. Fol-
lowing Harry Leggs brilliant performance
in the morning, Mcclure and Campbell Of
Merriam Park made best ball score of
40 in the first round Of the afternoon event.
This score for the nine holes was only
equaled by three teams and beaten by one
in the two rounds. The three youngsters
named promise to develop into rema rka BILE
players.
The greens, which were slow in the
morning after the rain, were considerably
faster in the afternoon, when the contest
for the Press trophy was started Jaffray
and Mardeld turned in score Of 40 for the
first round. This team, and Bend and
Doran, were fayorites for the event, and
the judgment Of the gallery was indicated
when the st. Paul pair came in with Al.
Mcclure and Campbell were the only other
pair whose best ball beat the DOGGY of
the course. In the second rollnd Jaffray
and MARRIED. made a So, making their total
70. It was then evident that only Bend
and Doran had a good chance to beat out
the Minikahda experts, but the best the
St. Paul men could do on their second
round was 40. Mcclure and Campbell fell
down badly in this round, Mcclure losing
his ball and forcing Campbell to complete
the course alone, which he did for 46.
Harold Bend, the present champion, on
the form he showed yesterday, as well as
during the season. is picked to win the
tournament His feat yesterday morning,
when he finished the IS holes 2 up on

was remarkable. Jaffray is second choice
for the championship. Lawhead also is
playing strong game. Doran, Gardi-
ner, Miller and Finch of Town and Coun-
try, Thayer, Corse and MARRIED. of Mini
kahda and Bolcom and Youmans of
Meadowbrook promise to be factors in the
result. Legg of Bryn Mawr is expected
to make good showing. but will hardly
win against such an array of veterans.

Into Plan Proposed by the
Park Board.
A Route to Fort Smelling Reserva-
tion Thru Park Property
Stretch.

President Thomas Lowry CT the Twin City
Rapid Transit company has agreed to have
the proposed Fort Smelling extension of the
Minnsh all line surveyed along lines sug-
geste9 by the park board and the work will
probably be done in the Immediate future
E. Acting for the park board Secretary James
Arthur Ridgway called upon Mr.. Lowry yes
terday and laid before him plans which the
park board had made in connection with the
proposed extension
Mr.. Ridgway explained that the park board
owned river front property runnig for half
nile down the river fro nithe present end Of
the Minnehaha line, and that the park hoard
was DESTROYS of having the new lin: built
thru this property and along. the river side
OF the Milwaukee right Of way until the park
boards land reaches the reservation. The
line can then cross the milwaukee on an
overhead bridge and take general course
thru the reservation.
This, in the opilion os the park board. is
as practicable a route as the proposed line
crossing Minnehaha boulevard at the present
end of the Minnehaha line and following
the highway thru the reservation.
Mr.. Lowry made a memorandum of the
route suggested by tie PARK board and said
that he would have his surveyors examine it
and make e test of its praeticability.

Tanger told the court that Mrs Kruse
had abused his cat and that when he
objected to the treatment and asked her
to leave the animal alone, the woman be-
came angry and struck him twice He
had not struck her but she got her arm
hurt when he tried to ward off one of
the blows. 5g1-
Mrs. Kruse had a long story to tell about
Tanger's abusing her and striking her In
the side. She said that she had moi
started the trouble, and in this was borne
out by her daughter. Judge Dickinson
dismissed the case and ordered the Sc
