UPPER PENINSULA COUNTIES HAVE
BEEN swINDLED BY wESTERNER
COYOTE HIDES SHIPPED HERE
From the Western PrairIss and Bounties
Asked From County Boards oiS25
Each.

The Iron county board has unearthed
what il considers 10 be big swindle
ia wolf bounty claims and at the meet
ing before the last, claims aggregating
nearly 5000 were dis-allowsd and the
officers set al work In an effort 10 fer
4 ret ont the offenders. The parties inn
y plicated in the deal got frightened and
the person who is suspected OF having
planned the deal skipped out.
Wolf.bounty claims had been increas-
ing in number for several meetings
until in June some 20-odd claims were
registered with the clerk for payment.
The increase OF these claims and the
fact that aIl the hides were Of the coy
ote specie aroused the suspicion OF
County Clerk Wall and he communi-
Gated his suspicion 70 Sheriff Holmes.
They acquainted Prosecuting Attorney
Watson with their supscions and to-
gether they got bnsy.
The claims were registered by resi-
dents Of the county who were known
not 70 have hunted wolves These
parties gave as an excuse that they had
purchased the hides from trappers. A
fellow named Hicks was the one sns-
pected and the officers started TO look
him up. In the mean time the board
met and at the request of the county
officers the claims, aggrega'ing about
$500, were laid on the table for veri
fication. Hicks got suspicious and
skipped ont About this time trace OF
his past life was found. He comes
from the state Of Washington and had,
IL is alleged, purchased the hides in
the west where coy otes are az thick as
Hees, and brought them TO Michigan
where there is bounty of SEQ on each
hide In some Of the counties. Iron
bounty Is one Of these places Marquet-
tie and Houghton counties are others
and IL is quite likely that, II the truth
were known. the boards of AL OF these
counties have been swindled by this
fellow.
Hicks went from here 10 Houghton
county and from there he wrote pos
tai card TO local party who had
claims before the board 10 "look ont,

AMASA LIQUOR DEALERS
WERE ALL DISCHARGED
NO WITNESSES APPEARED AGAINST
THEM IN EXAMINATION
EVIDENCE WAS NOT SUFFICIENT
Prosecuting Atty. Watson Had Examined
the Evidence and all the Attendant
Circumstances.

Amasa will not be dry town as a
result Of the arrest OF every one OF the
five saloon keepers recently on two
charges. The liquor dealers appeared
ia Justice Dawson court last Monday
Tor examination and the five saloon
keepers were let 20 the decision OF the
court being that the evidence was not
sufficient to hold the prisoners on. In
addition. when the cases were called
for hearing. there was none Of the COM
planning witnesses present and the
court had to rely upon what was told
by tho complaining witness when
the cases were started several weeks
ago.
Prosecuting Attorney Watson was
present and stated to the court that he
had examined into the cases as thor
oughly as ne could under the circum-
stances and IL was his opinion that the
defendants could not .be.convicted in
the circuit court as they all stood pat
for trial Of their cases.
As sample OF the charges IL was
stated that one OF the complaints was
for opening saloon before seven
o o'clock in the morning. In this parti-
cular case the defendant stated that he
was in his saloon cleaning up when
the two men entered and asked for q
glass of.beer. He told them that he
had no beer on tap yet as ne was only
cleaning ont tnat the beer he bad was
stale. They replied that that would do
them and he drew glass FOR each.
They drank their beer and threw down
the price OF il on the bar. The saloon
keeperv told them that he was not sell
ling that beer but they walked out
leaving the money. This. OF course is
one side OF the story but Mr. Watson

May 14th another party, with MT. Beck started for Biorka. The sea looked good, but it didn't stay that way. The waves ran high, the Fox took to open sea, and en- tered the bay through waves that almost buried her. The Sabbath services were all that earnest Christians could make them. The storm of Saturday still continued and going home Monday could not be thought of. The party made good use of the time. MT. McTavish went fishing and hav- ing caught a bass six inches long rowed ashore in order to to land it. Miss Milholland and Kosseyia Beck got lost. Miss Patton took cooking lessons and Mir. Beck demonstrated to the sealers the ability of the Fox to ride any sea and the engine to push her regardless of storm.
 Wednesday the sea had calmed some and the party proved it's sea worthiness by coming home through as rough water as any would care to tackle.

BIORKA


 At noon April 3Oth a party con- sisting of Mir. Beck and family Miss Kale, w. A. Jackson and H. B. Parks left the school wharf forthe sealers camp on Biorka.
 The trip in and out among the islands is long to be remem- bered but the scene as one enters Symmonds bay is never to be for gotten. Cliffs of white granite rise from the waters edge form ing a mighty gateway through which you pass into quiet bay around which a beach of sand of purest white record the result of the ceaseless labor of the tide. On shore one sees a large clearing made by the Russians century ago when they had rilot station there. In this open space is a vil- lage of tents, the camp of the Sitka sealers. Surrounding this are forests of sturdy spruce which show only too well the effect of the ocean $ winds, wfila tower ing above hese are two masts erected by the Government for an experimental wireless station. The party was royalty welcomed and made to feel at home In the evening all gathered around the campfire and sang, Miss Kale leading with the guitar Sunday Mir. Beck led a service in the morning and MT. Park; in the evening. The party started for home early Monday an arrived before school time having had one of the most delightful of trips.

The appearances of the school premises are greatly improved since the removal of the old shed, or enclosed passage way, which has for many years covered the walk between the boys'home and girls'home. MT. Beck and family can now have view of the bay from their home view which affords them a bit more pleasure than did the sight of the old rickety shed.
