DUCKS DRIVEN SOUTH.
Recent Cold Snap Has Sent Many
Birds South From Northern Lakes.

Recent Cold Snap Has Sent Many
Birds South From Northern Lakes.
The sudden cold snap, which set IN
suddenly Sunday afternoon, has driv-
en- from the northern lakes many OF
the ducks which had gone north ear
lier in the season, and local sportsnen
who have been out on the bottom
lands early in the morning have had
pretty good shooting during the past
two days Many claim that the shoot
ing has been better than at any time
during the season, altho only at GER
tain portions of the day were the birds
low enough to be within range. The
shooting consisted principally of NAL
lards and blue bills. Local sportsmen
have had some sport with jack snipes,
but the season has been so cold, and
there has been such a scarcity of warm
rains, that the shooting has not been
as good as usual. The closed season
for feathered game of the aquatic var
ieties, including also all species OF
snipe, closes on next Saturday, April
Is.

ARRESTS FOLLOW
election DISPUTE
st. Anthony Officers Are Charged
With Abusing the Power
Vested in Them
BOTH HELD TO GRAND JURY
Justice Of the Peace Samuel Meekins
and Constable George Mabie Are
Arraisned on Two Separate Counts
Trouble is the outsrowth Of the
Holly Contested Town Election.

The controversy, which mad its ORR
gin in the st. Anthony church months
ago. and which spread and enlarged
into factional fight, and later be-
came the bone of contention IN the
hottest village election the little town
ever had, stands good chance OF be-
ing aired in court. AS an outgroWth
Of the trouble, and as direct result or
the election, Justice of the Peace sam
uel Meekins, and his constable, George
Mabie, were arrested late Tuesday ar
ternoon on two charges. Frank Buch-
an and William Fisher are the COM
planning witnesses, and secured war;
rants in the courts of Justices PeeR
and Clark in this city. The informa-
tions sworn to charge malicious OPP
preston in office and malicious threats
to eXtort.
Constables Leech and Wilson served
the warrants Tuesday afternoon. and
Mr. Neekins and Mr.. Mabie were ar
raigned in both courts in the evening.
Both waived examination on each
charge, and both furnished bonds for
5000 in each court for their appear
ance before the grand jury.
Buchan, in his information, charges
that the officers used threats to prose-
cute him, claiming that he had COM
mitted perjury and compelled and per-
suaded him to sign an affidavit con-
trary to his will He also alleges that
they threatened that in case he did
not do so they would bring criminal
action against him. The allegations
set forth in the information secured by
Fisher are similar.
The circumstances leading up to the
arrests were the election Of Gust Olson
and J. A. Bryant as members of the
town council, over o. j. Abbott and j.
%. Mabie. Olson won easily over
Mabie, but the vote for Abbott and
Bryant stood tie, each having TWEEN
ty-four votes. A defective ballot, de-
clared to be such by County Attorney
Northup, threw the majority of one to
Bryant, thus electing him. Buchan
voted in this election, and the affidavit
he claims to have been secured from
him by force, was to the effect that
he had committed perjury, in voting.
Some such move, as the arrests was
expected in st. Anthony for arrange
ments were made to waive examina-
ton and secure bonds before the Off
GERS left there for this city.

infrequent performances of late years.

WASTING AWAY

It's the small but constant
