Lone Star barber snop. there being
about fifty present Among them
were Mayor A. L. Brewer of the North
Shore Gun club; o B. Madison of the
Lake Shore Gun club; Moroni Skeen
of the Ogden Gun club; President w,
II. Anderson of the Wasatch Gun
club.
o. B. Madison was elected chairman,
and Henry Ernstrom, secretary, Of tho
meeting.
The fish and game laws drafted by
the Salt Lake clubs were read by
sections and comments were made
and changes were proposed.
There were strenuous objections
made to fish ponds. Many Of those
owning fish ponds commenced by To-
eating at the heads of public streams.
In the spring the trout swim to the
heads of the small streams to spawn.
where they are captured by the own
ers OF these ponds.
1t was also recommended that the
season for grouse and morning-doves
be from August Is, to October 1st, this
doing away with the pot shooting in
the pine trees In the winter
a change OF the most vital import
ance was also suggested. viz: limiting
the time for shooting ducks from one
hour before sunrise to sunset, gov
ernment standard time Many pot
shooters make 1t point to do their
hunting after sunset, this being the
time for the ducks to feed, and there
by causing mary ducks to leave the
country. 1t was suggested that the
limit remain twenty-five as before
1t was also proposed that the quail
season be in the month Of November,
and the limit be twelve for each day.
A delegation was appointed, consist
ing of A. L. Brewer, o. 3. Madison,
Moroni Skeen, Fred Wilson, W. H.
Anderson and George Browning, to at
tend a state sportsmen's meeting,
called by State Fish and Game Ward
en- Cromar. to be held at Salt Lake
city. January 27.
A resolution was adopted endorsing
N. P. Matthews Of Pleasant View as
State Fish and Game Warden.
1t is earnestly hoped that the leg
islature will enact such laws as will
be for the protection of fish and game
in Utah. for at the present rate of
market shooting and market fishing
the fish and game in this state Will
be a matter Of history.

A Simple Prescription For the
Hair.


In the good old days cur mothers
used to tell us to use garden sage
for dandruff and falling hair. A sim
pie infusion was made Of the common
garden sage and applied to the roots
OF the hair. This old time remedy is
still used in many sections of the coun-
try TO this day. 1t has also been dis
covered that the Indians OF the north
west used to make a brew (or teal
OF the wild sage (sage brush) and ap-
ply 1t for all scalp affections. White
people also used this sage brush tea
with good results. A careful study
has been made of the different kinds
OF sage and it has been found that
the wild sage or sage brush contains
much more Of this certain curative
property than does the tame sage.
The reason for this Is apparent. The
wild sage growing as 1t does In soil
rich in sulphur and volcanic ash nat
urally contains much more medicinal
matter.
One of the main objections to the
use of these crude preparations, es'
pecially so of the wild sage. was tie
disagreeable odor of the brush. This
objection has been overcome after
three years of careful experimenting
in a laboratory especially fitted fof
tho purpose so that you can now pro-
cure a preparation free from all the
cisagreeable odors but still containing
all the active principles of the wilG
sage. This preparation is guaranteed
to cure dandruff and stop falling hair.
and will do so If directions are care
fully followed.
Ask for Sage Brush Hair Tonic. For
eale at all the leading Drug Stores
and Barber Shops in this city.

The possibility that Stanley Ketchel
the present mlddleweight champion OF
the world, will be the next opponent OF
Jack Johnson has led many close fol.
lowers Of pugillsm to ask: Can ketchel
ever attain a point where he Will be
snysSlag like Johnson in the matter of
weight. without taking into considera-
tion the difference in height and box

son To such a remarkable degree? AT
present Ketchel weighs about 10
pounds and will be % years OF age on
September II next He Will. at best,
nave but another year to get his full
height, if he has not already reached

some weight. there is always a cor

The fact that Ketchel who has just
placed himself under the management
Of Willus Britt, has expressed a will

middleweIght champion a subject just
now of more Than ordinary interest.
Ketcnel, up to the time of his first
fight with Joe Thomas at Marysyllle,
Cal. On July 4, 1907, was unknown to
eastern followers of ring affairs. He
was born at Grand Rapids, Mich, Sep
tember IA, 1887, his father being Ger
man and his mother American of Pol
ish descent When lad of 16 he was
employed for time on one of the lake
steamers running between his home
town and Duluth. This was rather
tame for his venturesome spirit and he
worked his way to Montana, then
drifted to Alberta and the Pacific
northwest.
Back to Montana.
Afterward he returned to Montana,
where Billy Nolan, later the manager
OF Battling Nelson, was running

chance to get his start, and the
youngster was sent against Maurice

than ever to shine In the ring. He was
given another chance. this time against
a local boy named Young Pecore, who
possessed a terrific punch. Ketchel
won the decision by good margin
and thereafter was not lacking for
matches
Referring to his early career,
Ketchel tells the following:

fund for the sufferers OF southern
italy and eastern Sicily. occasloned
by the recent earthquake disaster of
that country. In response to a reso-
luton passed by the city council

very certain, according to the state

members of the committee aside from

Is the opinion Of Mayor Brewer that
the committee will be divided into
two working forces. each handling a
particular section of the city In the
solicitation for funds.
Vice-Consul Frazzini states that he
is very much pleased and is very ap-
preciative Of the action taken by the
city fathers and the mayor in the mat
ter. He also states that some money
has already been sent to him by citi-
Zens of ogden for the relief of the
Italian sufferers, which has come to
him unsolicited. The Italian people
of the city are very grateful for the
generosity shown on the part of the
American people in responding so lib

countrymen Many of them are not
loath to say that the United States
