TO GET ESTIMATE OF TIE NUM-
Der OF DEER IN STATE,

Data relative to deer in Minnesota.
including an estimate on the number
of them in the different localities of
the state, will be obtained by the
state game and fish commission.
which will be the first time the state
has endeavored to ascertain the number
Of deer in this state.
Its executive agent, Ca,los Avery,
has been authorized to get this data,
and he is having blanks prepared
which he will send to deputy game
wardens throughout the state and the
deputies will be required to ill them
cut The blanks call for as accurate
as possible an estimate of deer and
other big game In their vicinity and
the location aud descriptions of the
district wfere the game is most album
dant.
1t is Mr.. Avery's personal opinion
that deer and large game is ever in
creasing in this state, and that this
increase is due to the public spirit of
the citizens, in upholding the game
laws and Furnishing those killing out
of seaon.

The Atchison, Topeka & Santa
Fe railroad has gone into tree grow
ing in orde- to pro7ids for its future
supply of cross ties. The Santa Fe
has adopted the eucalyptus as the most
suitable species for tie purposes,
because of it's rapid growth, great
density and durability, and is now
planting 700 acres in ranch of 5000
acres in southern California to
eucalyptus seedlings, with the inten-
tion Of repeA ting in this amount of
acreage each succeeding year for a
total of twelve years or more, when it

acres. The seedlings-wbich are
sprouted in boxes to the number Of 100

A VERY PECULIAR CASE
Case Of Hennepin Company
vs.. Railroads for Over
charge in Freight Rates

Circum stances surrounding the case
Of the Hennepin Paper company
against the Northern Pacific and the
Oregon Short Line roads, set fer
hearing today before Special Ex-
eminer j. 81. Marble of the interstate
commerce commission at St. Paul,
are decidedly amusing to those con-
cerned in 1t.
II the outcome is favorable to the
Hennepin Paper company the inter-
state commerce commission will have
sed as collection agency for that
concern, says the Minneapolis Journal
of Friday. The situation is presented
by the Northern Pacific and tie Ore.

the Hennepin Paper company an over.
charge for several carloads of paper
shipped 20 Boise. Idaho, and the Hen
nepin Paper company is aching to get
the money, but neither read dares to
pay back the money for fear Of violat
ing the Hepburn Law and the paper
company :Gassent take the money
for tire same reason.
The case will be submitted to the
commission on briefs. ~ B. f. Nelson.
president of the paper company, was
the only witness, and he testified only
a. to salient facts in the complaint.
The case arose from tho fact that
the paper firm turned the cars over to
the Northern Pacific road at it's paper
mill at Little Falls for shipment to
Boise, without routing the cars.
Through some mistake Of the North.
ern Pacific agent, the cars were
roated by q line which mad nc
through rate established, although II
was q short route, the sum OF the
locals was larger than the through
rate on the longest route. The rail
road admits the fault. -
At tho hearing today it said that II
desired to make reparation. The
Oregon Short Line announced that II
concurred in the statement Of tn
Northern Pacific and desired to assist
in the yeparatiop. In tho promises
nothing remains except for the inter
state commerce commission to permit
tho return Of tho ovoTohasge OtheS,
wise, tho return might be considered
q rebate and q discrimination in favol
of the Hsnnepin Paper company. 81

MAKES SPLENDID ROAD
Gumbo Road Near Crook.
ston Proved a Decided
Success

Il an now fully convinced that
there is no rea+on why good gumbo
roads can1ot he built. - said George
W. Cooley, engineer of the state high
way commission. upon his return from
a trip OF inspection in the northern
kart Of the state. The gumbo road
built rear Ciookston year a:o is now
in exi client condition and has been
every day during the year in which it
has been in uke, says the Pioneer
Press.
The building of good roads in the
Red River valley, where gumto
! abo1nd.', has not met with much
success in past years and the road
built by the highway commission at
Crookston last year was in the natu! e
Of al experiment to cetermi1e the
value of gumbo in road building
For this purpose a pa,t of the road
was built of pure gumbo, while
about a half of it was surfaced with
! gravei. Since its construction the
local officials have watched the read
appeared it was Immediately cared for,
with the result that the road today is
in as good condition as it was when
laid.
Perpetual n aintenance, Mr.. Cooley
states. is the secret of SUCCESS in
| building gumbo roads, as it is with
all other kinds of roads. In building
the read at Crookston the drainage
was the important factor which
received the greatest attention on the
part of the builders. The surface
; water would run of readily, and the
drainage bitches were then pitched
at a grade which would insure the
carrying away Of the water. This
avoided the great trouble in gumbo
roads of allowing the water to
remain in the low places and soften.
ing that portion of the road. When
cracks or ruts appeared they were
Immediately filled up. and the surface
OF the road thus kept smooth. It was
found that the gravel surface Was an
excellent feature "a it made hard
surface. allowing the water to flow %
easily and protecting the gumbo from
immediate contact with the wheels
Of wagons and the horses hoofs. :,

The grandfather Of l.. Rcsser, Pin

Leipnil1, Moravia. His son, Jacob, rabbi
in Oettingen, was the father Of Pinchas,
who, after his death, was his successor
as rabbi in Oettingen and OF Lazar Kat

changed the name Of Acknowledgment
into that the Riesser. 1t was between
1910 and 1913 when Hamburg became
part of the Napoleonic empire, that
many Hamburg Jews adopted family
names.
Lazar Riesser was a direct descend
ant of Saul Wahl, who by the Polish
Reichstag for short time was chosen
provisionary king Of Poland. Gabriel
Riesser on different occasions referred to
his royal blood.
L. Riesser's library was quite extern

fully, mentions it among the most valu
