law. Sheriff Ward of Elk River saws
that sPfeifer is a recluse who resides at
Eagle lake, in Sherburne' county, and
mas the hallucination that some one
will steal the lake if he is not around.
he IS an eccentric individual, and a
person wholly unfit to be armed and
given any authority by a game war;
den. He went to the lake where there
was crowd fishing and it is claimed
fired in a wild manner over the heads
of the crowd.
Sheriff Ward who was in Princeton
last Thursday in speaking about the
affair said that the Minneapolis game
warden ought to have known better
than to get an eccentric man like
Pfelter to assist him, and his actions
in the case were far from being those
OF a cool-headed official. Sheriff
Ward was very much provoked over
the case and threatened to report the
matter to the State game warden, as
the law designates the individual who
spends the game and fish appropria-
ton every year.
Here is an account of the arrest and
conviction of the fishermen taken
from the Wright County Times. The
U nj n prints the article for what in
terest many attach to it.
1.-The State game warden has been
on the alert in Sherburne county
lately and has swept it like tornado
to the surprise and chagrin of a good
many people who do not mind violat-
ing the game law. Last week Sheriff
Ward arrested eight violators and
more will be arrested this week. Ep-
pish OF Orrock, plead guilty and be-
ing unable to pay his fine he was
given ten days in the county jail.
Martin Hullet plead not guilty, was
tried by jury and sentenced for forty
days as he failed to pay his fine OF
$40 and costs. Mr.. Hanson plead
guilty and paid $40 fine. Allen
Snyder and James McKeen of Big
Lake, plead guilty and paid fines OF
Sl5 each. Peterson and Mayney
plead guilty and paid $52 in fines. All
these cases were brought before JUS
tice Mergel by the complaint of Deputy
State Game Warden, VIM. Fairbairn.
More cases are to follow. Illegal
fishing in Sherburne county is to be
stamped out. Some of the parties ar
rested have shipped several barrels OF
fish to the cities. For such we have
no sympathy. Let the law do it's
work"
It is said the Hullet's shanty at Elk
lake burned last week. Hullet was a
professionally fisherman.

GILMAN OF FISHING RATD.

G. A. Pfeifer OF Big Lake, Crazed Over
Arrests of Fishermen. Attempts Suicide.
The Pioneer Press of last Thursday
gives the following account of the at
tempt at suicide of G. A. Pfeifer OF
Big Lake, MIMI, who recently figured
in the arrest of several Sherburne
county persons for illegal fishing:
&C. A. Pfeifer, now farmer of Big
Lake, Minn., in Sherburne county,
but for number of years proprietor
of a carpet-cleaning establishment in
Minneapolis. was brought to St.
Barnabas hospital in that city yester-
day with his skull crushed and with a
self-inhicted bullet hole in his right
ear.
1.-The circumstances surrounding
Pfeifer's attempt to take his life, as
related, are peculiarly sad. He is so
deaf as to require the aid of a speak
| ing trumpet in conversation.
"A week or ten days ago Deputy
Game Warden William Fairbairn went
into Sherburne county, and after some
quiet work swore out complaints
against several fishermen, who were
said to be violating the game and fish
laws by illegally taking fish from Big
lake.
"The story which reached Mime
apolis is that Pfeifer was witness
against the accused fishermen, and
! incurred the enmity of the friends of
the men arrested. At lifetime of the
arrest, the game warden made a
statement that he would call the at
tention of his superiors to the conduct
of the sheriff, and if possible interest
the governors office in the matter.
~ 1.-The excitement attending the ar
rest and hearing of the accused fisher
men led Pfeifer to believe that he was
going TO get into serious trouble. He
brooded over the case continually.
"Pfeifer placed revolver to his
ear and fired, the bullet fracturing
his skull. 1t is believed that he will
recover, unless complications set in.
Pfeifer is very we'll known in Mime
apolis, having been resident of that
city for number of years. He is
tifty-one years old.''
The attempted suicide on the part of
Pfeifer is the climax to the raid which
Deputy Game Warden Fairbairn of
Minneapolis made on the Sherburne
county fishermen. Fairbairn, it is
claimed, deputized Pfeifer to do the
spotting and intimidation act in the
apprehension of the violators Of the

the figures compiled in the State audi

The total amount actually paid out
