circumstances surrounding the ar.

rest.
The student arrested was not
shooting at rabbits, but discharged
his revolver to notify his compan-
ions of his whereabouts.
While it may be all right to allow
the students to shoot rabbits within
the confines Of the park, how is the
game warden or anyone else going
to be able to determine whether a
shot fired at a distance is discharged
by a student or a poacher, or
whether at rabbit or at deer or
moose?
We would suggest that the Gus
todian Of the park be given abso-
lutte charge of the park as far as
discharging firearms is concerned,
and that he be held strictly to ac-
count for the enforcement of the
law.
The apparent discrimination in
favor Of the students as against the
settlers who live close to the bound
ary Of the park is going to cause
much friction, as several of the set
tiers told the writer that they would
not stand for. what they termed the
favoritism" shown the students.

4 I II POUND PIKE WAS
CAUGHT IN lake BEMIDJI
Ross Reynolds and Fred Ford Landed
the Prize Pike Of the Season
This Forenoon.

One Of the largest pike ever taken
from Lake Bemidji was caught this
forenoon, when Ross Reynolds, night
clerk At the Markham hotel, and
Fred Ford succeeded in hooking a
pike that tipped the scales at seven
and one-half pounds when weighedat
noon.
Reynolds and Ford were enjoying
some angling near Diamond point,
when Reynolds pole was tipped
clear to the water. It took the COM
bined efforts Of both anglers to land
the catch, but they were well repaid
for the struggle as the pike is un.
doubtedly the largest caught here
this summer.

forbade the use Of lights during the
months of May and June (that is
the law which now prevails). Sc
that the law as it now stands allows
the use of lights, beginning with the
first Of the present month and up to
May 1st, 1908.

WARDEN ARRESTED A STUDENT
FOR SHOOTING IN THE PARK
Attorney General Decides that Students
: May Shoot Rabbits Within Park
Boundaries.

St. Paul, July 6. Especial to the
Pioneer. )-Students of the state uni.
versity, dozen in number, who are
now enrolled in the state forestry
school at Itasca Park, are up in arms
against the state game and fish com
mission and it's aides in the shape of
wardens in the vicinity of the park.
The students were told by the state
foresty board that they might shoot
rabbits in the park, as the animals
were so numerous they were doing
great damage to new shoots and
plants.
There is a state law, however,
which says that firearms not only
cannot be discharged within the
park, but cannot be carried there.
In accordance with this, Warden
Theodore Wegman arrested John R.
Giles, one of the students, took him
to Itasca and had him fined $40.
The students at once sided with
their unlucky school mate. The
forestry board also took up the cudgel
for the boys in view of its granting
permission for the rabbit hunting.
The students said they would con-
tinue to hunt all they wanted to, and
c. C. Andrews took the matter to
the attorney general for them, and
Executive Agent Avery took it to
the state legal department for the
game and fish commission. The at
torney general holds that the park
has been placed in charge Of the
forestry board with power to adopt
rules for its preservation and protec-
ton; that the board did not go be.
yond it's power in authorizing the
students to shoot rabbits, which are
doing damage to young foliage.

and that Profits for 1905 Were
40 Per Cent.

Chicago, July 6.-(Special to the
Pioneer. John D.Rockefeller went
on the stand in Judge Landis'
court at II this morning.
In reply to. questions he said
he was president of the Standard
Oil company of New Jersey, but
the position was purely an honor
ary one. He had no active part
in its affairs for eight or ten years.
After objections by council had
been over-ruled, Mr.. Rockefeller
stated that he believed that the
capital stock Of the Standard Oil
company of New Jersey was one
hundred million. -
Mr.. Rockefeller declared the earn
ings of the company in 1905 were
approximately forty per cent, but he
could not say positively whether the
New Jersey company controlled the
Indiana company or whether it had
any business interests outside of re-
fning oil. - r. 49, 4
c. NJ. Pratt, secretary of the New
Jersey Company was then called.
He admitted that his company
owned the Indiana concern, and was
questioned concerning the dividends
