New Huntina Rules.

In lieu of the fact that endeavors are
being made to revise the game laws of
the state, and especially that of deer
hunting, it is not an uncommon thing
in looking over the exchanges to find
that some wise-acre has formulated a
set of rules to fit the occasion.
Among the recent are the following
"Shoot quick or you won't get him.
If it proves to be doe, put her back
as you would five-inch trout.
eff you see flag vanishing in the
brush, get on the other side and see if
it has horns.
Get close enuf to sprinkle salt on
his tail. If he's got horns, shoot.
He'll stand if you are doe, or make q
noise like one.
Bait your hook for buck. If 9
doe takes the bait it is her own fault,
Remove the hook carefully and put her
back.
Don't look for deer-look for horns.
Meantime the buck is looking for the
county line"

A Good Time. in Sight.

From what we can learn, those who
day evening, are going to miss the
treat of their lives. The members of
the u. S. C. F., ST. Jean de Baptiste
society, of L'Anse, are sparing no pains
or efforts to make this, their first pub
lie social function, standard for all
future events of the kind in this com
munity.
Klinghammer's orchestra, which has
so often played here and given salts
faction, has been secured for the dance
and supper which will surely bring
out compliments is being arranged.
The committee extends most cor
dial lvitation to everyone.

Leonard, of Crystal Falls, arrived in
L'Anse having in his possession a
warrant for the arrest of Archie Vevea,

spent several days in the Iron county
capitol; soliciting orders, and when
finished failed to do the necessary
honors to the landlord, by paying his
board bill.
He was located in L'Anse, where he
was soliciting in the usu al manner, and
was promptly arrested and placed in
Jail.
Thursday evening he was taken back

Fair Committee Makes Rounds.

Wednesday afternoon committee
from the Ladies' Aid Society Of the M.
M. church made call upon the differ
ent members of the congregation with
the view of ascertaining what might be
expected from each in the advancement
of the approaching annual church fair.
The committee enjoys the pleasure of
reporting most favorably upon the sub
ject and informs US that everyone is
entering into the spirit of the event
with even greater enthusiasm than in
previous years.
This fact alone assures the society of
a very successful Fair, and while much
of the work in connection with it is
still in the embryo, it is safe to assume
that this years exposition will far sur
pass former ones.
While many of the booths will con-
tain the usual grist of staple articles,
such as aprons, fancy work, homemade
candies, and the like, there will be in
troduced, in addition, many new and
novel features which have never before
been offered to the people.
The attractions this year for the
children, as well as the grown-ups, are
to be away ahead of anything that has
been seen at other fairs. There will
be no dead ones on the list, but instead
all new, snappy and up-to-the-minute.

Honors Evenly Divided

Yesterday evening, in L'Anse Opera

of basket ball, between the Hancock H.

At $3.50 the girls game was called,
and from the start Hancock maintained
the lead. being fast in their combina-
tions and accurate in goal throwing.
Score for the first half, L'Anse s, Han

In the second half the L.Anse girls
began to brace up and kept the score
pretty evenly divided, but all through
the game played brokenly and irregular
SO, az consequence, when time was
called, the score stood % to Is in Han
cocks favor.
In justice, we must say that Han
cock is considered the best team in the
copper country, and we judge that
our girls played good game.
But we have different story to tell
of the boys game.
In the start the L'Anse boys, like
the girls, seemed to be all out of con-
dition, the score for the first half being
% to 20, in favor Of L'Anse.
But in the second half the L'Anse
team began to ''ginger up" and show
their opponents how the score ought to
stand, which, when summed up at the

Died In His
Western Home.
John b. Edeerton, Formerly Of This
VILLAGE, Answers summons
January ~.

Following a prolonged illness, John
H. Edgerton, formerly of this village,
but recently of Roseburg, Oregon, on
the 9th day Of January answered the
final call.
Word to this effect was received here
the fore part of the week, and although
no information of length was given
concerning his last days, we are in
formed that he had been in an uncon-
scious condition since Sunday, the oath
inst, and that when death came he
slept peacefully away.
Mr.. Edgerton was one of the early
settlers of L'Anse, and for many years
made his home in this vicinity, but two
years ago in July he removed with his
daughters to Roseburg, Oregon, where
they have since made their home.
During the past few years of his life
he was a great sufferer from asthma
and stomach trouble, and it was mainly
for this reason that he located in the
west.
When resident of this place he was
prominent in politics and at various
times was elected by the people to inn
portant Offices. He was. also staunch
member of the M. E. church and a
faithful worker.
The funeral was held in Roseburg on
the 2Sth inst, and the remains laid at
rest in the cemetery at that place.
Five children remain to mourn his de-
mise

MANY Ipiured By FAILING.

Friday seemed to be day of i'll fate
for many ladies of L'Anse. Early in
the morning fine mist fell and gradual
ly covering the g round with thin
coat of ice, which made walking very
dangerous.
Among the first to meet with mis-
hap was Mrs. Eugene Paquette, who
as she was going from the rear steps
Of her home slipped and fell backwards.
Her head struck heavily on the STEP
and rendered her unconcious for several
hours. Late reports say that she is
doing as well as NAV be expected under
the circumstance.
1t is also reported that Mrs. F.
Goltsch and Mrs. p. Brennan met with
similar accidents but which were not
of such serious nature.

Thursday, members of the village
council were waited upon by James
Burt, of Houghton, representing the
Burt Foundry & Boiler Works. Mr..
Burt spent the day looking over and
considering transactions in connection
with the sale of the boiler aud engine
of the former electric light plant, but
as the original plans and specification
were at that time in the hands of other
prospective purchasers. but little was
done in the matter. A later visit may
be fruitful.

SCHOOL NOTES.
BY Special Correspondent.

Fred Pine returned to his duties in
Miss Curry's room, Monday, after sew
eral days. absence through illness.
Those pupils who were neither tardy
nor absent during the first semester in
the H. s. department, were Miss Ada
Johnston, Miss Marie McKindles and
Russell Trudeau.
The second semester is now in full
swing and there is very promising
outlook for success during the next few
months.
Next Friday afternoon will be devot-
ed in the H. S. room and in Miss Curry
and Miss Sterk's rooms to the recogni-
ton of Lincoln Day. During the past
two weeks both teachers and pupils
have been spending a certain amount of
time in the preparation of programs
and some excellent ones have been ar
ranged. The first part of the after
noon will be given over to the two
grade rooms, at the conclusion of which
those attending will go to the H. S.
room and hear the program there.
Here is another occasion upon which
parents and friends of pupils and
teachers are most earnestly requested
to be in attendance. Your presence at
such times has great significance to
all connected with the school and in a
certain sense it is your duty to attend
duty which you owe to your child.
your neighbours child and the instruct
ors. Take day off for once and go
where you will be benefited, as well as
your child or friends child may be.
The fact alone, that it is day set
aside in commemoration of one of his
tory's great men, ought to call you
forth in the face Of all other doings of
the day. Following are the programs
which will be rendered:

The Norwegian authorities ordered
Swedish paper for the records Of the
storthing on the ground that the Nor
wegtan article was inferior to the
Swedish. But by this time they must
be very sorry for having made this
deal. Most OF the Norwegian news
papers have jumped upon the finan-
cial department Of the government,
their main grievance being, that the
deal is an International advertisement
for the Swedish paper industry at the
expense Of the Norwegian paper mills
The Norwegian newspaper and book
publishers are preparing public dec
laration to the effect that the paper
offered by the Norwegian competitors
for the government order was perfect
ly satisfactory. The Norwegians are
still further irritated by the assertion
that the Swedish dealer who is to fur
nish the paper has secured stipula-
ton to the effect that an eventual in
crease Of the tariff shall not affect the
paper which he is to furnish to the
Norwegian government.
