Hogan Nabs
Some Choice Fish.
Heavy Shipment From Baraea County
Taken From Express Car.

Deputy State Game and Fish Warden
Hogan made us pleasant call last
week and questioned few authorities of
this village as to whether the laws
were being obeyed. He was answere d
in the affirmative. Our chagrin is
great since we learn of the capture
made by him, as told in the Iron Noun
tain Press. The story follows.
"Game Warden Hogan, of Negaunee,
probably will not thank The Press for
relating this story, but it is too good to
suppress. Recently, Warden Hogan
was passenger from the north on the
st. Paul evening train. AS is gener-
al custom with game wardens, Mr.. Ho-
gan invaded the express car in search
of contraband game. The car con-
tanned a consignment of 1000 pounds
of fish enroute from point in Baraga
county to Chicago. Suspecting that
the shipment was an illegal one, Mr..
Hogan ordered the messenger to unload
the consignment at this station. The
messenger declined to do so, informing
the warden that he could do the unload
ing himself, if he desired to assume
the risk. Hogan at once got busy. He
secured the necessary documents in a
justice court and oyerhauled the ship
ment at Green Bay. The following
morning the express company returned
the 200 pounds of fish to Iron Noun
tain and they were turned over to Mr..
Hogan. Hogan, not a little elated at
his success in bringing the express COM
pany to time, and feeling certain that
he had won everlasting fame in seizing
a large consignment of contraband fish,
proceeded to demolish the packages on
ly to discover that, instead of brook
trout or pike, as he suspected, he had
in his possession l, 200 pounds of suckers!
1t can be said that Hogan, upon discov-
ering his error, was quick to make all
amends in his power. He re-iced and
re-packed the choice assortment of
suckers, settling the express company
charges for returning the fish to Iron
Mountain from Green Bay and all other
expenses incurred, and then got awfully
busy in an endeavor to keep the story
from securing general circulation. But,
as we said before. the story is too good
a one to suppress. Hogan, however.
is deserving of credit for the activity
he is showing in endeavoring to round
up violators. May he have better sue
cess next time"

Fire at Pequamin8.

The mill at Pequaming was closed
down last Monday morning to permit
the workers to assist in putting out the
flames which destroyed the wood shed
of Louis Stein.
How the fire originated is unknown,
but it is presumed that it was set afire
by boys lighting matches around the
building.

Plcket's Show Pleased.

Seldom are we called upon TO speak
words of praise for a colored troupe,
but we must say that Dave Pickett's
Minstrels, who played at L'Anse
Wednesday evening to packed house,
were something out of the ordinary.
No old chestnuts were cracked upon
this occasion and all laughed at the
comical situations in the play, "Uncle
Honey" which was enacted. Dave
Pickett, the favorite, is certainly the
Dave of old and entertains all. Resi-
dents of L'Anse say that it is twenty
five years ago since he first played here
and, if anything, he seems to be getting
spryer and able to please his audiences
better.

Is This A Sample Of Musselman's
Business Ability

A jury of twelve citizens after list
ening to all of the evidence submitted
in the suit brought against the Ionia
reformatory by firm of prison con-
tractors for damages because of the
cancellation of contract, has awarded
the prison contractors damages to the
amount of $22, 800. Upon the fact of
this matter it would seem plain that
the guardian of the public interests,
the Ionia board, had been seriously
derelict in its duty since through the
action of that board the state seems to
be in a fair way to lose large sum of
money, This of itself makes the in
cident of sufficient public interest to
warrant discussion.
Interest in the matter, however, is
heightened by reason of the fact that
one of the members of the board of
control of the Ionia institution, Mr..
Amos S. Musselman, is now candi-
date for the republican nomination for
governor. The sole claim for support
for this lofty position put forth by Mr..
Musselman or his friends lis Mussel-
mans ability as business man. The
greatest possible stress has been laid
upon Mr.. Musselman's record in the
way of business achievements and a
great volume of argument is adduced
to show that Michigan sorely needs the
services of such business man.
If the record which Mr.. Musselman
has achieved as member of the Ionia
board is to be taken as fair sample
of the business sagacity which he
would display if elected governor, there
exists, it seems to us, considerable
room for doubt whether Michigan
needs this kind of of man.
While on the stand as a witness in
this case Mr.. Musselman admitted that
his visits to the institution at Ionia
were infrequent and perfunctory, that
he seldom saw the interior of the prison
and was quite unfamiliar with the de-
tails of its operation. Other testimony
produced during the trial seemed to
show that the relations between the
reformatory officials and the prison
contractors were characterized by any
thing but close and careful business
considerations. AS climax to the af-
fair the board summarily cancelled
Wallerstein's contract and as result
the state is now up against the prob
ability of paying $22, 500 in damages to
the Wallerstein company.
As this is the only record which the
state has of Mr.. Musselman's ability as
business man, or a public official, the
showing does not seem to be such as to
warrant the extravagant claims to
exceptional business ability which Mr..
Musselman himself frankly sets up and
which are echoed 50 unanimously by
his friends. 500 News.

Communicated.
Editor L'Anse Sentinel,
L'Anse, Mich.


L'Anse. Mich.
Dear SIR
The brief articles appearing in your
paper purport to be synopses of tbe ad-
dresses delivered by N. P. Hull at the
recent farmers institute held here.
These articles have been asked for and
we are only too glad to present them.
By inserting them in the paper they
have wider usefulness and are pre-
served in permanent form. The sub
ject assigned me is, Sandy Lands and
How to Handle Them" The great
idea in this address was that sandy
land should be plowed as few times IA
possible, in order to conserve the mois-
ture. Sandy land is course in its tex
ture and when turned up the air has
greater chance to circulate through it
and rob it of its moisture than in the
finer clay soils. Clay soils are plowed
to loosen them up, but there is not this
necessity so much in sandy soils. When
asked to harmonic this idea with the
advice of frequent cultivation to con-
serve the moisture he explained that
moisture rises from the lower subsoil
by capillary attraction and in cultivat-
ing dust mulch formed on the surface
that stayed this process. For instance,
dip piece of loaf sugar in coffee and
it will be readily seen that the coffee
will readily penetrate the entire lump,
but place powdered sugar on top the
coffee and the coffee will not penetrate
it. So in the soils the dust multch
prevents the moisture from escaping,
and capillary attraction supplies the
plants with necessary moisture by
drawing it from the lower subsoils,
l would like to add, Mr.. Editor, that
we are all gratified with the success of
the recent institute. We had splen-
did program, and large turnout, com
pared with other years. There were
forty present in the forenoon and sew
enty in the afternoon-certainly not
able gathering for an upper peninsula
county. We wish these institutes to 20
on, which they certainly will, until the
farmers in this district will be on par
in intelligence and in progress with the
farmers in the lower part of the state
Sincerely yours,
CHARLES PRICE.
