NIGHT OWL KIDS PUT IN JAIL BY
 OFFICER

Just to teach coterie of youngsters who delight in remaining out late at night that the curfew laws were en acted to be observed, in Bisbee, at least Officer Lee Joiner Friday night rounded up a couple of punches of youngsters ranging anywhere from eight to twelve years of age, and marched them to the station.
 Ever since Marshal Stevens an- nounced that the curfew law would be enforced. number of certain boys, out of spirit of pure bravado, have skulked about after the forbidden hour, o'clock, collecting in parties Of three or four and hanging around pool-rooms when allowed to do so, otherwise loafing about the streets.
 Joiner has been after them time and again but has been unable to land them. Last night he caught four of them red-hsnded, loafing about on Brewery Gulch Two of them tried to run for it, but he collared them and gave both a good shaking, one in each hand That settled matters and he started on a march with the four for the city jail.
 On his way up Main street, he came

 This is the first gatheringin by the wholesale of youthful offenders since the curfew law went into effect, but will be by no means the last if the youngsters continue to lay themselves liable. Several boys have at various times been caught individually and told to go home. and few nights ago Constable Twomey gave two a little scare by locking them up for short time. These two have not been seen on the streets after hours since.

And the way the juve- niles tucked for their respective balawieks was a caution.

nual slaughter of at least five thou
sand animals by hunters in open sea-
son, great destruction in certain quar-
ters by wolves, loss from starvation
due to heavy SHOWS, and more or less
illegal killing by settlers and poach-
ers, seems to have been increasing in
numbers In recent years. To say that
10000 deer are today roaming our
northern forests may seem rash ex-
aggeration, but careful examination of
certain widely separated typical To-
calities leads to the conclusion that
1t is safely within the limit of con-
servative probability. What are 3o,-
900 deer worth to the state of Mime
sofa? On the lowest sordid basis of
food value, their worth exceeds half
million dollars, not to speak of their
far greater value as game, the legiti-
mate pursuit of which, by hunters, is
one of the most invigorating and
health-giving of recreative sports.

growth Of antlers supported by the

hunters as trophies, as well as to it's
great size and peculiar characteristics,
1t is most interesting and important
species. Only three states of the
Union, Washington. Minnesota and
Maine, now have moose in sufficient
numbers to safely permit the killing
OF them. Washington has compara-
lively few-Maine has many, but they
are most numerous in Minnesota of

AS the summer home and nesting
ground for water fowl, Minnesota
leads every state. Thousands of
lakes, sloughs and marshes produce
annually innumerable teal, mallards

of ducks has materially increased, and

and the transformation of our grassy
prairies into fields of grain, this state
offered ideal conditions for that finest
of all game birds, the prairie grouse,
but those conditions are gone, never
to return. Some of our children may
never hear the booming of the prai-
rie chickens in courting season and
it may be only pleasant recollec-

may, in a measure, be taken by the

realize his value to them as an aid

The ruffed grouse will always be
more or less plentiful under favorable
climatic conditions in the wilder
wooded portions Of the state, and we
yet have considerable numbers Of the
sharp tailed grouse and the spruce

While originally the habitat of the
red deer included all the wooded area
of the state, at the present time it is,
roughly speaking, defined by that por-

Lake trout and herring constitute
the bulk of the North Shore catch.
Whitefish once formed an important
item, but they are gone, due to de-
structive methods and over fishing.
Lake trout will go the way the white

produced an annual catch of a mil

had dropped to $1,000 pounds, so that

policy to provide for the immediate
extension and enlargement of the ia
