FAME is FAR REACHING
Wisconsin Musky Captivates
the Natives in Ohio City
Who Swear By Villas Co.
as Sporting Point.

Northern Wisconsin's tame, es-
pecially the Villas county belt, as
a sportsman's paradise, is far
reaching and surpasses all other
sections in production Of the
genuine, dved-ln- thew oolarticles

The following portion of a let

from E. F. Hayward 1.-THE Rum

who is working in Fremont,
Ohio, is just a minor portion of
the bonihde advertising this
state is receiving AS a place
wherein one can enjoy life as it
should be. The letter reads in
part:
Il am chasing the Eagle ($)
over among the Buckeyes and
while on the street today { Free

window a 4O-pound muscallonge
nicely mounted. A neat card at

and had a nice visit with him.
He says there is no place like
Villas county for sport-so | let
him live, as one booster is worth
twentv dead men.
Mr.. Hayward further says
that Mrs. Hayward has been
very i'll for several weeks, and
she is now in the hospital at Eos

fish hooks for ice fishing and in
the interim slay few rabbits

rabbits in this section is above

was bare of snow it was easy to
secure all the rabbits a man

receives a letter from Joe Deckert,
formerly Of Eagle River, but for
the past several years resident
OF Marshheld, the hub of Wiscon-

pick when he writes. Last year
it was the dam. This time it is
something else. He says: Il

A BIT o NOTHIN'

It is rare occurrance for men
to witness a fight between two
buck deer, and most generally
when he does he is able to bag
both. But if a man is handi-
capped with the possession of
but one tag and has the above
opportunity, what would you
do? Evidently you would be of
the same opinion that Alex kir-
chen, tender of the Otter Rapids
dam, was a week ago when he
watched two bucks tear down
the brush in fight for suprem-
acy After he had had his fill of
the fight, he dropped the larger
and let the other escape.

SLUMP IN FISH RECEIPTS.
Supply Here Is Iimited-Similar
Condition ElseWhere.

Another slump in the receipts of fresh
fish at the wholesale market on the 11th
street wharf is noted. Yesterday and
again this morning the supply on hand
was limited. This condition is said to be
true not only here, but at Norfolk and
the big markets in the north The shad
and herring season on the Potomac is
now at its height. and never before In
the history of the Potomac fisheries have
the fish been SO scarce. The big haul
seines, instead of bringing ashore from
twenty-five to fifty thousand herring at
a haul, are not catching quarter of that
number, and shad are not being caught
in any numbers at all Roe shad are
selling wholesale at So to $55 per hun
dred and bucks at Si5. Herring, which
at this season should be selling at S1.5O
per thousand and even lower. sold on the
wharf this morning for $50. White
perch are as high in price as
in the middle of winter. owing to their
scarcity. and yesterday afternoon they
brought from 121a to &c per pound. There
are practically no rock on the market
and the few that are being received at
Norfolk sell at fancy prices The fish
ing season is failure. the fishermen say.
and their losses will be heavy.

NEW CROSSING POLICEMEN.
of Peace to Be at 1st and
B Streets Southeast.

Following a fatal accident at 1st and B
streets southeast recently. Capt. George
H. Williams OF the fifth police precinct
has recommended to the Commissioners,
through Maj. Richard Sylvester. that a
crossing policeman be stationed on the
corner between o'clock am. and 10
o'clock midnight. The Commissioners
have approved the plan.
I'm the near future the cars OF the two
traction companies will cross at this
point" Capt. Williams says. There is
also a curve on the tracks where the cars
turn into street from 1st street and
vice versa. which makes 1t more or less
dangerous.
This is quite busy crossing. Many
persons who visit the Congressional Ii
brary and other public buildings in that
locality alight from and take the cars at
this point
"A fatal accident occurred there re-
Gently. which. had an officer been station
ed there. should have been prevented"
The two new crossing officers required
will be paid by the railroad companies.

groom Is the son of a retired capitalist

ter of the late John X. Cowen. president

pany.
The romance began several months ago
it is stated. when Miss Cowen, who was
driving her automobile from Baltimore
to Washington. ran into Mr.. Monson's s
car and so damaged it that he was un-
able to move it. After apologizng. Miss
Cowen offered to tow the disabled ma
chine back to Washington. Miss Cowen's
chauffeur drove her car. while Mr.. Mon
son sat in his own car and steered It.
Touched at the lonely and disconsolate
appearance he presented. Miss Cowen
stopped her car, sent her chauffeur back
to Mr. Monsons and took Mr.. Monson
in with her.
The fact that the couple intended to
marry was known month ago to the
brides legal adviser and property trustee,
who lives in Baltimore. and the bride,
who will not come into full possession
of her estate until May D. her twenty
first birthday, says her mother also knew
of her plans.
Mr.. and Mrs. Monson will go down to

Proposed Change In Inauguration
Day-Plans Of Committee.

Commissioner Macfarland, chairman of
the national committee on the proposed
change of Inauguration day. today con-
trasted the pneumonia-breedingw weather
OF last Inauguration day with the cond-
.ions yesterday.
while we know from the weather rec
ords for thirty years. the Commissioner
| said. that the last Thursday in April
usually has good weather and has not had
q blizzard in that time. 1t was gratifying
to see that while yesterday was cloudy.
1t was on the whole a pleasant day. not
withstanding unusual billiards. elsewhere.
The GOODNESS in the air would have been
good for marching Certainly the con-
trast between yesterdays weather and
that OF last 4th of March emphasizes the
necessity for the change in the inaugura-
tiOn day.
1ndorsed by Many Governors.
Our national committees resolution
providing for the change from the 4th of
March to the last Thursday in April chat
being the day on which George Washing
ton was first inaugurated. and a day of
the week rather than a day of the month
in order to avoid Sunday. has now been
indorsed by forty-two governors OF states
and territories who have become members
of the national committee. Its consdera-
ton in Congress only waits upon the de-
termination of whether there will be any
other business transacted at this extra
session except that respecting the tariff
and the census. In the House our reso-
luton was introduced by Representative
Gaines of West Virginia, who Is expected
to be chairman of the committee on the
election of President and Vice President
when that committee Is appointed. and we
would have early consideration there.
by Senator Depew. which named the last
Wednesday in April. which he has con-
sented to change at our request to the
last Thursday in April, is in the commit
tee on privileges and elections. and that
committee will give it consideration il
any business Is taken up at this session.
II not We shall press the reolution at the
next session of Congress.
Hopeful Of Success.
I'VE are very hopeful OF success in get
ting the two-thrds vote required in both
houses for an amendment to the Constitu-
ton, and through the interest of the gov
ernors and prominent men in the legisla-
tires believe We shall get the required
consent Of three-fourths of the states.
I'VE have unoff1cial information indicat-
ing that there were several hundred
deaths from the exposure OF residents and
visitors on the last 4th Of March. and this
fact. with the pictures Of the snow scenes
which we have ready and the fact that
the Senate has twice adopted our Iesolu-
ton, will be used before the committees in
our arguments"
