MAZUR ARRESTED AGAIN

Frank Mazur, proprietor of the
Grand Rapids Tailoring company,
and who was acquitted last week by
jury, of operating a lottery scheme
in the shape Of a suit club, has been
arrested again in connection with the
same suit club, but on different
charge.
Mr. Mazur operates suit club TO
advertise his company and to get
trade. Last week his trial for operat-
ing lottery resulted in his acquittal
the jury holding that the element
chance that entered into the club
made no one the loser, and
therefore was not criminal. This
time he is charged with selling, on
January 2, lottery ticket to Max
Sowaske, the complainant being Nels
Sundet, the tailor who operates his
shop in the basement of the Wood
block beneath Kruger & Warmers
store.
When seen Saturday, Mr.. Mazur
said he had no idea of creating enmity
toward himself by means of the suit
club, and expresses much surprise that
he should be singled out as a breaker
of this part of the laws. In regard to
the club, he said that if he was forced
to stop the drawing he would do so,
and would use the tickets as records
of payments on the inStallment plan.
His hearing before Justice James A.
Keyes is set at March 2.

RETURNS TO KLONDIKE

Matt ErnSer, who spent the past
seven years in the Yukon territory,
known as Klondike, and who has
spent the winter in Grand Rapids,
returned to the land of ice aud snow
on Friday. He went to Chicago with
his brother, and from that city will
go to Seattle, and from there, he will
sail for the north.
While Matt did not strike it PAR
ticularly rich on his first trip, he be-
came used to the ways of that country,
secured good paying claim, and a
full set of tools, worth in the neigh
borhoOd of $4,000. These he stored
during his visit home, and he will
again set them up on his claim upon
going back, and will work for him.
self. He brought several small speci-
mems of gold nuggets with lim when
he came before and he has promised
several more to his friends.
Matt is Grand Rapids boy, one of
half dozen who are in the Yukon
country. ALI are doing well which
condition of affairs we hope will con-
tinue to exist with them,

WOULD ORGANIZE
DRAINAGE DISTRICT
May Be Presented to Circuit
Court at May Term.

A petition paper is being circulated
among those residents of the city of
Grand Rapids, and Of Rudolph town,
who own land in sections 29, 30, 81
and 32 in Rudolph, and the northwest
corner of this city. relative To secur-
ing the organization of a drainage
district.
This is the territory in which Mayor
Nash suggested at the meeting of the
common council the first of this
month To organize drainage district,
for the purpose of making more valu-
able the land drained, and to also
carry off the water which floods the
western part Of the west side every
spring. The city would for that
reason be beneficiary, and therefore
has an interest in the matter.
The petition is to contain the
names OF those land holders who wish
to have drainage district organized.
and will be presented this spring to
Judge Chas. M. Webb, of the circuit
court, In case sufficient number of
signerS can be obtained. In order to
get such a district, majority of the
land in the proposed district must
petition or ask for the same, through
it's owners, and the object of this petit
tion is to secure majority Of the
land, signed Through it's owners. We
understand that nearly enough signerS
have already been obtained, and if so,
the matter will probably come up at
spring term of circuit court for this
county beginning on May14,
AS the matter appears to US at this
time, it could be nothing if not a
good idea to institute such a district,
as all lands affected would be greatly
enhanced in value and the city would
also reap benefits, in that the floods
on the west side each spring could be
handled without Inconvenience to
land owners.

DOMESTIC ANIMALS

The Department of Agriculture of
the United States government sends
out each week a bulletin relative to
and statistics pertaining to
agriculture in the whole country or a
part Of it. These bulletins are sent
to pOStmaSterS and others, many are
posted up, but how few of them are
ever read! The fact that they are not
read is not to be taken as an indication
that they are not of interest, for they
are. One issued Feb. 10, for instance,
Informs US that the value of domestic
animals, including horses, mules,
milch and other cattle, sheep and
swine, is the enormous sum of three
and half billion.
The exact figure is S3,675, 300, 436.
Though the Standard Oil trust is
supposed to represent practically all
the monetary value in this country,
to believe some of the articles we
read, we find that there are more than
five times as great d monetary value
in stock alone, than this great
corporation controls. OF this figure
one and half billions represents the
value of cattle, and one and a half
billions, that of horses.

AS TO WHIST

There are three kinds of whist
players: one kind is he who is good
player, who studies the game, and be-
ing good winner, keeps still about it;
another is the player whois no good and
who would cause job, with all his pa
thence, to take the count in the first
round; the third kind is made up of
an lncongruous mass of players who
win at one time, lose when they
think themselves best, and who never
know just what class they are in.
Also, he who laughs last, laughs best.
These two statements do not seem to
jibe; but both refer TO two whist "ex-
pertS'' in this city,-Richard Wiper
man and Louis Bauman. Last week
they had a winning streak, and great
was the blowing, and monstrous, the
pride therefor. But Friday night
they were brought to earth. and their
sarcastic remarks are now confined to
the weather, which has not to do with
Whist playing. They scared high. and
great was the fall thereof, when a
score of eleven to one left them
stunned and fallen among the whist
giants. And now they go not among
those who whist and whistle, but are
silent even to entirety concerning the
great game. 'Sdeath.

MARRIED IS YEARS

On Thursday evening Mr.. and Mrs.
Peter Codere of Rudolph, entertained
number of friends and relatives in
honor of the thirty-fifth anniversary
of their wedding day. They were
married in Canada in 1871, coming to
Wisconsin the next year, and have
lived here ever since. Nine of the
eleven children born to them are still
living. Cards and dancing were the
sources of pleasure for the evening,
after which refreshments were served.
Many useful presents were given the
couple by their many friends, and
everyone helped make the evening
merry in the good oid-fashioned way.
Besides their children, all the old
friends who have lived beside them so
many years were present, making the
occasion happy one. The REPORTER
joins their many friends in wishing
them many more years of happy
welded life.

SECOND WARD FIRE

Monday morning the big COnsoli-
dated cOmpany'S whistle announced a
fire in the second ward, which proved
to be located in the home of |. E.
Dunaven, on Eighth St. off Wiscon-
sin st. The fire apparently started
from chimney in the main part of
the house. NeighbOrS went to the as
SiStance of Mrs. Dunaven, who was
alone in the house (f1r. Dunaven be-
ing at work at Ladysmith) and by the
time the fire department had arrived
and begun work, most of the house
hold goods had been taken from the
building.
The fire was between the roof and
the board lining of the roof which con-
Stituted the ceiling, and it was some
time before the fire company could get
it under control. 1t was finally To-
Gated, hole chopped in the roof, and
was soon eXtinguished, at loss of
perhaps 5000 to the building.

ARE BUYING RUBBER

ID. G. Burdick, a furniture dealer of
Oshkosh, and vice president of the
ColiSeO Sugar Plantation company of
this state, which holds 5000 acres of
rich land in southern Mexico, was
here last week, to get acquainted
with those in this city who have in
vested in his company.
Of the 4,500 shares or bonds which
GO to make up the total stock of the
company, nearly 1000 shares have
been disposed of in this city, which
makes Grand Rapids the principal
holder in the company. The COM
pany's main object is To raise rubber.
which in seven more years will be
producing in good shape. The fact
that the Royal Trust company of
Chicago are backing the concern has
caused large number of Grand
Rapids people to invest, The total
capitalization of the company is
81, 500, 900 which is to be totally paid
in. A number of Grand Rapids bond
holders are planning on going to
Mexico next year to look over the

RAILWAY COMMISSION
is NOTIFIED
City Attorney Officially Asks
State Commission 10 Examine
Railway Crossings.

City Attorney John A. Gaynor last
week mailed to the State Railway
Commission, the official complaint of
the city of Grand Rapids, as to the
dangerousness of the railway crossings
in this city. This is another step in
the persistent fight the citizens of
this city have put up to cause the
companies which have tracks crossing
the city, install appliances that will
make sure the safety Of our people.
The complaint merely states the
contents on the resolutions passed at
the meeting of the common council
the first of the month, being IN sub
Stance:-In view of the present ex-
iSting danger at the crossing Of the
tracks of the Chicago Milwaukee and
st. Paul, the Wisconsin Central, the
Chicago and Northwestern and the
Green Bay and Western Railway
companies with Grand Ave. and with
First st. N, it is resolved by the
council that it does complain to the
State Railway Commission of Wiscon-
sin of such dangerous crossings,
asking that the commission make
thorough personal inspection and ex-
animation of the condition existing
at the several crossings in this city,
relative to the commissions ordering
said companies to install proper safety
appliances particularly pneumatic
crossing gates and inviting the COM
mission TO come and make such in
vestigation.
There is no certainty as to the time
when the commission or one or more
of its members visit the city an.
inspect the conditions existing at the
railroad crossings, but it will probably
be some time in March. The partic-
ular time will depend upon the
