BOUNTY ON CROWS
The Board Of County Supervisors
Gives an Incentive to Hunt
Crows and Hen Hawks
ANNUAL SESSION AT AN END

Hunters in Kenosha county will in
the future have an incentive to kill
black crows and hen hawks, as at the
session Of the county board on Friday
afternoon the board, by a unanimous
vote, decided to offer bounty for the
killing of both species of birds. On
crows the bounty will be ten cents,
and for each hen hawk killed the hun
tiers will receive twenty-five cents.
They must, however, be killed within
the limits of Kenosha county.
For some time the crows have been
multiplying in this section of the
state SO rapidly that they are now a
nuisance to the farmers in many of
the towns. 1t is claimed that there
are hundreds if not thousands of
crows in the county in the spring and
summer and the hunters can make a
pretty good stake out of them.
The hunter must first kill his crow
and then cut off it's head. This trophy
will then be carried to the Office of the
county chairman who will issue a
certificate, and armed with this GER
tifcate and the head of the crow the
hunter can apply to the county clerk
for the bounty. The same plan must
be carried out in regard to hen hawks.
The law has never been favorite
one with the hunters of the state as it
is claimed that there is TOO much red
tape about it. In some of the counties,
however, large sums have been paid
out in bounties to hunters.
This was the only business of i'm
portance at the meeting of the board
Friday afternoon. The formal order
for the lease of the old county build
ing to the city was made and the mat
ter was left in the hands of the coun-
ty agent and the district attorney.
The board completed it's work this
afternoon and the country members
have returned to their homes.

CARY ISSUES REPORT.
State Supt. Cary Issues His Annual
Report on Public Schools.

Report on Public Schools.
State superintendent C. p. Cary
has issued his biennial report of the
public schools Of Wisconsin covering
the period from July /, 1902, to June
80, 1904. The report deals at length
with the rural school system of the
state, complains of the very irregular
attendance at these country schools,
condemns the bad administration of
local school funds and consequent
waste of funds, and declares that the
farmers should have better educa-
tiona1 facilities, one feature recon-
mended being the consolidation of
schools.
"In the mere matter of attendance, !"
the report says 1--WE find that in the
city schools the percentage of daily
attendance, based upon the enrolment
throughout Wisconsin, is rs, while
the percentage in the country schools
is but 81.
ssThere are $500 school districts in
the state, each withGa schoo1house of
greater or less value, furnished with
heating apparatus, school furniture,
etc. A teacher is also in charge, but
owing to the irregular attendance the
money expended for public school
purposes is not SO thoroughly utilized
as it should be. Indeed, it has been
estimated that not less than 81, 800, 900
is expended annually for teachers
wages, fuel and janitor service from
which the people of the state derive
no direct benefit.
estate superintendent Emery, some
years ago, in wrestling swith this
problem, came to the conclusion, in
view of his own study and the expert
ence of the eastern states, that the
best solution lies in the direction of
the consolidation of school districts
and the transportation Of pupils

BUTTER AND EGGS HIGHER.

Butter and egg prices are higher
than usual for this time Of year, and
especially with the mild weather that
has been prevalent. People who are
in position to know say that the
high price Of butter, % cents pound
for extra creamery, at wholesale
rates, is unreasonable. They assert
that the price is fixed by few who
stored this same butter last fall at Is
and 1o cents pound. The price was
characterized by a man Connected
with the commission business today
as "holdup.'' 1T is all right he
said, ito charge good prices for 1uxu-
ries, but when it comes to- fixing
monopo1istic prices on the necessities
of life, it is time something should be
done. It is shame that people have
to suffer from such an injustice and
have no remedy"

Lieut.. Roy HoIderness Spends
Three Days without Food in
the WiIds Of Montana.
RESCUED BY INDIAN TRIBES
Lieutenant Ho1derness and Compani-
ons Had Gone for Hunting Trip
and Had Lost Their Way
in The Woods.

A message from Miles City, Mon
tana announces that Lieutenant Roy
Ho1derness of Kenosha .sand party
of hunters have been rescued by a
party of Indians after having been
lost in tn Bad Lands of Montana for
more than three days. During this
time the party Of which the Kenosha
soldier was member had been with
out food of any sort and1they were al
most famished when finally rescued.
Lieutenant Holderness was gradua-
ted from West Point in last June and
after spending some time in Kenosha
he was ordered to Fort ssKeough for
his first service.
A week ago the Kenosha boy and a
number of the other members of the
staff at the fort organized hunting
party to go into the bad lands in
search of deers and bears which are
plentiful there. The'gmen failed to
return at the stated time and the
other officials at the Fort becoming
alarmed on the account sofltheir con-
tinued absence organized a lre1ief ex-
petition and started out into the in
terror to search for the party. No
traces of them were found after two
days and finally asia last resort a
tribe of friendly Indians wasIasked to
take up the search for theshve officers.
After day Of searching the indians
found the men forty miles from the
fort. They had kept together and
with grim determination had started
on long wait for rescuers. The men
when they left the Fort had expected
to return in the evening and for this
reason they had not taken along food
for more than a few hours and this
was soon exhausted. The condition
of the land is such that it is unfit for
the raising of anything and for this
reason the officers were not able to Sc
cure single thing to eat.
They made a camp'snear small
spring and in this manner they were
supplied with water. After waiting
two days for the rescuing party the
members of the party had sent out
one of the members to- search for
some way out of the woods and he met
the party of Indians which had been
sent to the rescue. The men were ia
ken to the Fort and great ce1ebra-
ton will be held on account of their
safe return.

one was surprised at the end Of two
months when the partnership was dis
solved with every sign of relief on the
married woman's side.
II simply couldn't stand it!'' she ex-
planned to her intimates. s'That girl
nearly drove NE wild. Sentimental?
Why, good gracious, she was forever
imagining all sorts Of silly things, not
to speak Of falling in love every other
day. It got so that in self defense
positively had to keep my attractive
men friends away from the house, for
whenever one came she would do moth
ing but talk about him for three days
afterward and nearly drive me out Of
my senses by her repeated questions as
to whether thought he liked her and
was he in love with any other girl!
There was one awful week | shall new
er remember without shudder when
she learned that Billy Blinks was en-
gagged. She passed her nights in sobs
and her days in going around with a
face that would have made dying
mans look cheerful by comparison. Oh,
no, thank you, have had enough Of
that budding, blushing type Of maiden
hood. Give me a girl who is blase
enough to conceal her likes anddislikes.''
Now listen to the mans side of the
story. ooh, the dickens! Here is an
other note from that girl, saying she is
going away forever on Wednesday, and
won't call for one last farewell be-
tween and 6! I'd rather be whipped
than go, but can't very we'll refuse.

given her the slightest encouragement
