can Holsters in the year 1913 had not this
hatchery enterprise gone through. Owing
to the wide distribution Of the species 1t
would be impossible for man to completely
wipe it out; but in decade the Maine crop
has fallen off 90 per cent and the market
price has increased 60 per cent. From
Labrador to Delaware, the two extremes of
the eastern lobster zone a similar decline
In the yield has been felt.
Will Buy Egg-Beaters.
All egg bearing Holsters obtainable along
the Maine coast will be bought by the new
hatchery and be paid for at the market
price. 1t is a, punishable offense in the
lobster states for potters to put the egg
bearing females In the market. They are
easily recognized, it being Mrs. Lobster's
peculiar maternal instinct to carry her eggs
about with her after laying them, rather
than to deposit them upon some inanimate
occupant of the seething depths. She at
tacheS them to the little "swimmerets'
below her waist line, sticking them fast
with cement which Immediately hardens
In the water. This laying performance
Mrs. Lobster repeats in summer every al
ternate year. The tiny egg clusters do not
hatch until after she has carried them thus
for ten or eleven months The minute
young of this years Matching mothers will
break their shells next month, the sea hav-
ing warmed sufficiently by then to complete
their incubation But the lobster boats
were launched for the season on April 15.
Many egg-bearing females have already
been caught in the pots. The law says
that they must not be put in the market,
and the law was framed to save the lobster
from determination.
But the lobster potters have learned to
evade the law. One of their trade, with
more ingenuity than conscience, invented
a wooden mitten wherewith the eggs might
be stripped from the female and destroyed
at the same time. The distressed females
to all appearances legal and marketable
were then sold, and no one but the potter
himself was any the wiser.
The projected hatchery will send out
fleet of launches, which will canvass the
potters all along the Maine coast and pay
them the market price for egg-bearing fe-
males. Thus finding legitimate sale for
the Illegal crustaceans the potters will not
resort to the extra trouble of stripping"
and the wooden mitten will become relic
OF the past
Shipping the Eggs.
The egg-bearing mothers will be kept
alive on board the launches and delivered
fresh at the hatchery. AS they are brought
IN men skilled in the art will strip them
OF their beaded coatings. Considerable ex-
pertence is essential to success in this pro-
cess, otherwise it will prove disastrous

North Dakota Buffa.o Meat Seized By
Smart Deputy Game Warden.

Minneapolis Tribune: The members
Of the %aristocratic Metropolitan club of
Washington, D. c., who had planned a
dinner OF buffalo meat from the great
Northwest by way of a novelty for a
party of Southern senators, will have to
postpone the dinner or content them
selves with something less inviting to
the Southern palate.
The buffalo was seized in St. Paul ON
January % by a Minnesota deputy game
warden.
1t appears that the buffalo meat was
shipped by Eaton Bros, Of Custer T, all
Ranch, near Mcdora, N. D., to the Met
ropolitan club at Washington. 1t is
claimed that the Eatons have a private
buffalo herd and might ship the game if
thew chose to do so. 1t is claimed on
the other hand however, that the game
was killed on a government reservation.
The incident has caused some excite
ment in the local game commissions de-
partment, and it is thought that serious
political complications may arise that
will affect the standing OF the Northwest
senators and congressman while in the
national capital.

The Major to Resign.

1t is reported that Major George H.
Bingenheimer will soon tender his resig-
nation as agent to the government. Mr.,
Bingenheimer has been agent at Stand.
ing Rock for several years, his term hav-
ing expired some time ago. His reap
pointment has been held up and it is
stated that he believes there is more
money and satisfaction in the machinery
and lumber business than in waiting for
a government reappointment.
A Washington dispatch OF the 18th
SAYS:
Indian CoTmniS. 1"--~ hae been
asked by the president to make a report
on the charges filed by the Indian Rights
Association against seven Indian agents
who are alleged to be wholly "unht for
the responsible positions they occupy"
Among these agents are Bingenheimerof
Standing Rock and Chamberlain of Crow
Creek, but the nature of the charges is
not disclosed and will not be disclosed
w iC COMMISSIONER. ~ 1dl do IdA DC
learned, however, the charges against
Bin%genhelmer are the same that were
made last spring in connection with the
contracts for grazing leases on the Stand
ing Rock reservation, which was inves-
tigated by special agents of the interior
department., who exonerated the agent.
1t will be recalled that George Boyd
Grinnell of Philadelphia also made an
investigation as a personal representa-
tive of the president, but no action was
taken on his report. 1t was sufficient,
however, to cause the president to hold
up Bingenheimer's reappointment,
which had been recommended by Sena-
tors Hansbrough and McCumber. Bing-
enheimer's term expired last spring.

ures which will be of great benefit to the

throws out the choicest dress goods as

the reasons of his success in selling out

what the bid is, the goods are sold posi-
lively without any reserve. All must go.
no matter what the bid is, and this APP

The Consolidated Coal Co. have or
dered new machinery for April delivery
for their Lehigh mine, which will enable
them to mine 500 tons per day in the
place of 200 tons as at present. In cons

briquetting plant. The new machinery
will not only mine but haul the coal as
we'll to the place of loading on the cars,
electricity furnishing the power. 1t is
expected that three months will be re-
quired in which to install the machinery.
1t will all be in running order for the
coming falls business and will make
this mine the best equipped for operat-
ing OF any in the state. The company
will also erect a new brick hotel and
make other Improvements, the total ex-
pense Of which will be in the heighbor-

ASKED PRAYERS
 FOR MURDERER
SERMON DURING THE FUNERAL SERVICES OVER BODY OF GIRL WHO WAS SHOT GRE ATES A SENSATION.

Rising Sun, Ind, December 13-"Let us in this hour extend our sympathy to the ones who committed the deed," said the Rev. John Henry this afternoon, con- cluding the funeral services over the body of Miss Elizabeth Gillespie, who was shot while sitting at her window Friends of the dead woman crowded in the Pres byterian church. The most sensational part of the sermon was the pastors ad- monition to the public to do nothing rash.
 Let us withhold our Judgment" he said. Speaking of the guilty, the Rev. MT. Henry said their troubles have only begun. The fact that the Rev. MT. Hen ry spoke in the plural when making re- ference to the crime. caused much com ment. There was a general lifting of eyes when the pastor asked for prayers flor him whom so forgot himself for a moment' This was one of the few in- stances when the minister alluded to the murder in the singular. The pastor said that he hoped that no sensational report would cause the people to do anything of a rash character.
