HUNTERS DISAGREE
Difference Of Opinion in Regard to
Amount Of Gun License for
Residents.
Bill Changing Game Laws to Be In
troduced Into Legislature
This Week.

The recommendations Of the state game
and fish commission for changes in the
statutes with regard to the protection Of
fish and game, have been embodied in a
bill which will be-. introduced into the
legislature this week. One of the most
fines collected for violations of the law
shall go to the counties in which the Of
Tense occurred, instead Of to the state,
as heretofore.
Under the present law, although the
state gets the fines, il the offender fails
to settle, and is committed to jail for
thirty or ninety days, the county must
bear the expense of his board during that
time. On this account the residents of
such counties are not over Jealous in en-
forcing the law. The payment of fines
into the county treasury is expected to
game Wardens.
Other changes recommended are the
same as those suggested by the st. Paul
chapter Of the League of American
Sportsmen, and have already been dis
cussed at length. A summary of the
proposed alterations in the laws follows:
Every resident hunter to secure a gun
license The commission originally rec
commended so cents for the cost Of such
residents license, but many hunters think
81 is not too much, and the latter amount
may be decided upon.
Nonresident hunters to pay $25 license
fee. Fees for all licenses will be paid
into the state treasury for general uses
and stated appropriation will be giver
the game and fish commission for its
work. s..-.-...,.

FROM THE M'kINlEY TOMB
GUARD ARRESTED.
STEALING SCRAP GOLD
From Local Dentist is
Charge Against Him.

William T. Lyons, bugler at the U.
s. barracks at Westlawn cemetery, was
placed under arrest by officers Bour
and Mortensen upon the charge OF
stealing gold from the dental Office of
DR.. j. p. Taggert, in the Commercial
block, 13S South Market street.
A tip had been given Bour by Jew
eler Charles Double, who had pur-
chased the gold. Just as soon as Mr..
Double saw the account of the robbery
in the papers he went to the officer
and told him that United States
soldier had come to his place of busi-
ness Saturday afternoon with some
scrap gold and wanted to sell it. The
soldier stated that he was dentist
by trade and had been filing the boys
teeth at the barracks and nad this
left over He finally disposed of the
gold for S4 and went away.
The gold was stolen from the office
of DR.. Taggert during the noon hour
of Saturday. When he came back from
dinner the door was open and he found
that a desk had been rifled and some
gold taken. The matter was reported
to the police.
The officers got good description of
the fellow, one of the points of iden-
tification being gold front tooth
which had been made by DR.. Taggert
1t was while this work was being done
that the man is supposed to have To-
Gated the precious metal.
When the officers visited the bar
racks Lyon fitted the description and
he was placed under arrest. He was
very indignant at the attempt to impli-
cate him in the stealing. do you think
soldier who is sent here to prevent
people from stealing the body of Nc
Kinley would be guilty of theft?" said
he. This did not go with Bour and
Mortensen and the man was marched
up town. When taken before sr Deu-
bel he recognized the prisoner as the
person who had sold the gold. When
he found that there was evidence
against him Lyon practically admit
ed his guilt to the, two officers. He
was taken to the city prison and
placed behind the bars.
