Game Records.

st. Paul-Based on the number of
deer and moose known to have Deen
killed during the open season, Carlos
Avery, executive agent of the state
game and fish commission, estimates
that nearly 5000 deer and perhaps
$50 moose were killed in this state.
The figures available are those Of the
number shipped into the several coun-
tics. They show that 2,0S4 deer and
80 moose were shipped by the hunt
ers, and it is estimated that at least
as many were killed by the residents
of the counties in which the big game
abound and were not shipped.
Hennepin county heads the list of
the number shipped in with 399, st.
Louis county is second with 355, and
Ramsey comes next with 205 deer.
st. Louis county is credited with 81
moose, Hennepin with IL, and Ramsey
with 4; Stearns received 6 moose, and
Lake, Mcleod and Traverse each got
four.
The commission issued during the
season fifty-four nonresident game IL
censes and the records show that for
ty-five deer and four moose were
shipped out of the state.

STATE BANKS.

Minneapolis-The strength ana
soundness of the Minnesota state
banks as we'll as the confidence or the
people in the banks is shown by
comparative statement just issued by
Public Examiner Anton Schaefer. me
statement shows the conditions OF the
banks last year as shown by their
reports of Nov. II. 1906, and their
condition on Dec. 8, the date OF the
last call this year.
The statement shows that there was
a falling off in the total of the re-
sources and liabilities of about So
100000 as compared with last year,
Notwithstanding that during the time
between the two reports the Security
Bank of Minneapolis, with total OF
resources and liabilities of over S14,-
100000 had been converted into ma
tional bank So that instead of the
apparent decrease of $3,000,000 there
has been a net gain of about $11, OOO,-
900.
Between the dates of the two re-
ports there was an increase OF 5Z
state banks. and comparison of the
statements of those banks included
in the 1906 statement with their con-
ditions is commented on by Mr..
Schaefer as follows:
Taking only the $50 state banks
included in both the call of Dec. 3,
1907, and that of Nov. IL, 1906, which
makes a just and fair basis of COM
parison of true condition, there is a
net increase, in round numbers, OF
$1,S00,000 in cash on hand, 100000
in loans and discounts, and $3,500,000
in time certificates of deposit, with no
shrinkage whatever in any principal
item of banking resources.

Apples Are lmauinary.

Mankato-John Rose, stranger
from Ohio, was arrested on the charge
of defrauding housekeepers by pre-
tending to sell apples that he did
not possess. He canvassed from house
to house, claiming to have carload
of apples at one of the depots, and ex-
hibited beautiful large red ones as
samples. The apples were to be sold
at $3.50 a barrel and he collected so
cents down.
His scheme failed when one house
wife, more cautious than the rest, tel
e2honed to the depots and found that
there were no apples there.

The Lyceum Course.

Course for the coming winter have

better is on the platform. The Elma
B. Smith Co. will appear Oct. "a, and
we have no hesitation in saying that
this company is without an equal.
Elma B. Smith in her child and bird
impersonations easily takes the front
rank. Waldemar Won Geltch, violin
list, Rita Rich, interpretative music
and soloist, and Mr.. Rummel, pianist,
will disappoint no one.
Feb. Is the Whitney Brothers will

tainment that for strength and
beauty and variety has never been
surpassed, if equalled, in the course.

New York, reformer and intimate
friend of Roosevelt, haven't you? He
will be here Feb. %, and Mrs. Maude
B%allington Booth, who is doing so
much for the prisons and prisoners of
America, and in rescue work is so
efficient? She will be here March 10.
Then Rose Carghil Beecher, the
greatest reader and dramatic imper-
senator on the platform? She will be
here March 80.
The committee feels that it could
not better the Course or make it
stronger. The same popular price for
season tickets will obtain. as hereto
fore, 81. Single admission tickets
will be go cents.
