WARDENS HAVE
MORE POWER
As Result of The Amended
Game and Fish Laws,

Under the law passed by the last
legislature the game wardens are Civ
en- additional power and under the
provisions of said law have the right
to make search and seize property
without a warrant. Not only is this
power given to the warden but also
to his deputies and the change from
the old law may be of interest to the
people of this county. Besides hay-
ing the power to seize and take pos
session of any game or fish taken OF
held in violation of the laws of Wis
cOnsin. such officer may arrest with
or without warrant anyone whom
he believes to have been guilty OF
violating the fish and game laws of
the state. In addition to this he may
also, with or without warrant. open,
enter and examine all buildings,
camps, vessels, boats, wagon, cars,
stages, tents and other receptacles or
any other places where he has reason
TO believe that fish or game is being
held in violation of the laws of the
state and seize such game or fish if
any be found. The law, however,
provides that no dwelling or sealed
railroad cars can be entered or searched
without warrant.
Any person who shall refuse 10
permit the game warden or his depu-
ties to enter such buildings as auth
orized by the laws and to take
possession of any fish or game or any
unlawful contrivance use for taking
fish or game upon demand made by
the officer to that effect shall be Ii
able to fine of not less than $40 OF
more than $50, or by imprisonment
for not less than twenty days nor
more than sixty days or by both fine
and imprisonment.
Any other law which is of interest
to the fishermen and we'll worth while
keeping in touch with is the one re-
iative to the weight and size of pike,
fiddler catfish andblack bass which pro-
vides that any person who shall catch,
killor have in his possession pike of any
variety of less than one pound, round
or undressed weight any fiddler cat
fish of less than one and one-half
pounds, round or undressed weight,
or less than one pound dressed weight
or any black bass less than ten inches
long shall be guilty of misdemeanor
and is liable to a fine of from $40 to
$50 or by imprisonment in the county
ail for period not to exceed sixty
days or by both such fine and inn
prisonment il found guilty.

RAIN GUAGES ARE PLANNED
Wisconsin Valley Improvement
Co.'S. Manager Collecting Data.

Ram guageS to record the amount
OF ralnfull on the upper waters of the
Wisconsin river and iUs tribu taries
and also in the various localitie.
where reservoirs are maintained viii
be established at numerous points by
the Wisconsin Valley Improvement
company for the purpose of gathering
data which may later prove of service
in conserving and regulating the
water supply of this river Daily
observations will also be made of the
height OF the water at the variou.
dams. All of these reports will bt
filed in the Office of the manager. anC
the effect Of the rain fall in the diff
ferent localities noted for it is thought
these statistics will be valuable fol-
future guidance.
The new manager of this company
A. \. Babcock. Jr., since taking ac
tive charge of this work, has spent
the greater portion of his time on the
headwaters getting acquainted with
the situation there and inspecting the
properties now controlled by this
company. Nearly all the dams he
found in good condition, but as they
were merely built for temporary pur.
poses and some of them have seen
almost their full limit of service, his
fpcsr nj xxri hn tn l,nt
are replaced with dams of a more per-
manent character, possibly of con-
crete.
While those who first took up this
vast work were actuated largely by
the desire to increase the minimum
water power which might be devel-
oped along the river, and while to
many this is probably such an i'm
portant phase of the work as to over
shadow all other considerations, Mr..
BabcOck has already seen enough to
convince him that the company has a
much larger scope of usefulness to
this section planned out than is gen.
orally supposed. The carrying out of
the forestry idea of holding back the
waters in the spring and fall, of pre-
venting their running off with in
creased rapidity every year, followed
by an increased waste through evapo-
ration, is of great Importance in re-
lation to the welfare of this whole
district. And then again the matter
of navigation is of no inconsiderable
Importance, for which the building of
dams of which quite a number are
yet to be constructed along this river,
this problem will be easier of solution.
1t will make longer stretches of river
above each dam navigable, and the
balo, water of one will in time reach
back to the next and 50 on for the
whole length of the river. Boating
parties will only have to portage
around these dams to find smooth
water and good boating for miles
further up the river, and this will un-
doubtedly be taken advantage of by
many hunters and campers, who are
noW deferred from doing so because
of the unnayigable condition of long
stretches of the river, except at those
seasons when the water is high and
the current too swift for the ordinary
boat. Wausau Record.

THE FIRE WARDEN SYSTEM
With a List OF The Men Now
Serving in Wood County.

Owners of wild land in the state of
Wisconsin should know something of
the fire warden system which was es-
tablished to protect timber ana marsh
lands from fire, and also the men who
are appointed to serve for their county
or town. The annual loss by forest
and marsh fires is very large and in
many cases absolutely unnecessary but
is gradually decreasing through the
work of the fire wardens and as To
The state fOreSterS is empowered to
appoint one or more men TO act as
fire wardenS in any organized town
where he deems it necessary, AS
most of the forest and marsh lands
are in the northern half Of the state,
it is here that appointments have
been made to the number of about
three hundred To guard property in
tereStS.
All land owners in the northern
part of the state should know the fire
warden in their locality, so that they
may report violations OF the law to
him and also know to whom TO lock to
protect their property from fires. If
the property owners in any town feel
that they need additional fire wardenS.
application should be made to the,
state foresters, Madison, Wis, who is
also state fire warden. Fire wardenS
do not serve merely for the small
amount of pay tscre is IN the position
and they should receive the hearty
support of all good citizens in their
difficult work.

SOME STORY WRITER'S SINS

gretfully but firmly, we cut that hero's acquaintance. It is not good to keep company with a person who goes around "seein' things at night" like that.
 It would have taken the author ten minutes, probably, to save himself from two absurd blunders. It is not matter of vital importance that a person should know the difference between the flies" and the wings of theatre. Nor Is knowledge of the habits and duties of city editors essential to the average mans happiness. But an author owes 1t to himself and his readers to inform himself about the elementary truths of whatever he chooses to describe.
 We read not long ago of how George Eliot consulted an eminent barrister about a point of law in one of her novels, and fearful of a possible inaccuracy if she altered his language, made him her unconscious collaborator to the extent of one page A little of that careful spirit would not harm our latter-day tellels of tales. We cannot expect a short-stoiy writer to be a Flaubert. devoting twelve years to accumulating the material for one book. But there should not be the weekly and monthly exhibitions of dis regard of accuracy obtainable without trouble.

JOHN oRTH. MAN OF MYSTERY

From the New York World
 Once more the story appears that John Orth, formerly the Archduke John Salva- tor of Austria, is alive and prospering This time he is declared to be visiting in London and to have made practical con fession of his identity
 John Orth sailed from London in the spring of 1890 with his newly purchased freight steamship the Santa Margaretha The last positive news of him was in July of the same year, that he had left La Plata, in South America, for Val paraiso. Tn Novtmber, 1890, a ship came home to Hamburg, in Germany, with the story of three wrecks seen off Cape Horn, one of which was believed to be the Santa Margaretha, and despite recuf- rent tales of a Jorn Orth still living 1t is generally supposed that the royal Aus trian perished with his vessel.
 Romance has It's fill with the career of this former archduke. John Salvador was a poet, and composer of music a dream CT He tried to be a spiritualist, but only succeeded in exposing a fraudulent med ium in Vienna. He could not be a sol dier because he had published denuncia- lions of turning men into machines by drilling. Out of the luxuries of his life at court he emerged with a passion for & little danseuse, Ludmilla Stubel, to whom he was married in London and who shared his voyage on the Santa Mar garetha. Before leaving Austria, John Salvador formally resigned his titles and honors.
 It is estimated that there have been over fifty claimants to the identity of the | lost Dauphln of France including Eleazer Williams, the Indian missionary, and Naundorff, the Prussian. England had under Henry VII false Warwick. claim ing to be one of the little Princes of the Tower. A man appeared once in Paris declaring himself to be the French Prince Imperial, whom the Zulus killed It has often been told that Marshal Ney, in- stead of being shot In the Gardens of tho Luxembourg, fell before blank cartridges and was assisted in escaping to America.

 T HERE is a famous old definition
 \OU of the crab as "a small animal
 red in color, which walks back ward" The only trouble with it is that the crab is not an animal, is not red and does not walk backyard. That def1n- ition finds a parallel in much of our recent fiction. The authors have long had a grievance against the illustrators for their sins of omission and commission. One instance, from among many, will serve to show that readers have some ground of complaint against writers.
 In a new magazine story the hero is seeking information from a chorus giil in New York theatre. They were stand ing on the stage when the signal came for the curtain to rise.

Orchards Manifold Crimes

If Orchard tens the truth he Is and long has been the worst bad man this country has ever known. To turn such B man into a states witness, to be turned free at the end of the trial, would be something monstrous. The state of Idaho will be condemned on every hand and in every country if she attempts to do that. Orchard de- serves hanging, if he is telling the truth, and the law should take it's course.
 Possibly, however, he is telling much of a cock-and-bull story that will be fully discredited when the defense presents it's evidence. Perhaps the best feature of the Boise trial is it's thorough and extreme deliberation. It is star trial, and every part of the country Is watching it's progress. When a witness stays on the stand beyond a week 1t must be confessed that the court is not in a hurry to bring the case to an ending.
 The trial of Haywood promises to become one of the most memorable in the history of American courts. It re- lates to large events in several states, and capital and labor alike In all states take deep interest in it. It will turn, it is now evident, upon the Orchard testimony, and the corrobora- ticn of that testimony on the one hand and the discrediting of it on the other will no doubt go to make up the most of the remainder of the long trial. The case will probably last all sum mer, but summer in the Rockies is not a period of heat and inaction. It is the best time for hard, continuous work in the court room.
