CAPTAIN JAMESON OF
L|TTLEFORK IS humane
Rescues mired Moose and Tries to
Save Its Life, But Animal
Dies.

Littlefork, July 1o.-(special tc
Pioneer. ITO Captain Jameson,
master of the steamboat "Itasca,"
which phys the waters of the Little
fork river from this place to where
the Littlefork empties into Rainy
river, is entitled to the prize as a
humane and big g-heartcd mariner.
and he is also entitled to much
credit from the State Game and
Fish Commission of Minnesota for
his efforts to prolong the life of one
of the states inhabitants of the
forest-a big bull moose.
When Captain Jameson reached
the mouth of the Littlefork last
Friday, he came upon a big bull
moose mired in the mud. The
animal was literally covered with the
big, merciless flies known as moose
1ies," and was making frantic efforts
to escape from the mud.
Captain Jameson pried the moose
loose and loaded it onto his boat.
1t took the combined efforts of the
boat crew an hour to scrape the mud
and flies from the moose, when sacks
and coats were spread over it and
the moose was taken to Little Fork.
The moose was taken to a barn in
this village, but despite everything
possible was done to save the animal,
it died.

METCALF| F|S|RR|TATED.
Deprecates Warlike Interpretation
of Naval Movement.
SIMPLY A PRACTICE CRUISE
says There Is No justification for Re-
ports That the Atlantic Fleet Is
Going to the Pacific for the Purpose
Of Overaweing the Japanese.

Oakland. CAL. July 10.-Secretary of
the Navy Metcalf deprecates the war.
like aspect that has been given the
order for the cruise Of the great bat
tleship squadron from the Atlantic to
the Pacific coast. The secretary said
that the proposed movement was that
OF practice cruise and that the feet
would not be kept in the Pacific per.
manently. He declared that the length
OF time that the fleet would remain
on the Western side Of the continent
had not yet been decided.
With considerable emphasis the
secretary voiced his opinion that the
warlike Interpretation that had been
made In connection with the fleets
movement was not justified by the
facts. In fact the widely published
reports suggesting hostile preparations
seem to be source Of irritation for
the head Of the navy. He said:
THE fleet which will be moved
from the Atlantic to the Pacific this
winter is coming to this side merely
On practice cruise. The fleet will
consist Of sixteen or more vessels, not
more than twenty, and it's stay on this
side will not be permanent. or course
the feet will not come here, turn
around and 80 right back again. How
long it will remain In the Pacific will
be- determined at the proper time.
There IS no sound reason or excuse
for all this talk by the public and
through the press Of an attempt to
overawe the japanese by a warlike
naval display. do not believe that
the newspapers are justified or right
In SO constituting and coloring the
cruise Of the warships to the Pacific
Every year the Atlantic feet has
been sent on cruise. Last year it
was sent to Guantanamo. This year
1t will order the fleet to the Pacific.
The long cruise will give the men and
the vessels thorough test and i'm
prove the efficiency Of both"
