LAKES ARE FREE OF ICE
First Time Since 1877 That
This Northern Country Has
Freed Itself of Snow and
Ice In March.

Thirty-three years ago was an
open winter and the 18th of
March of that year saw settlers
blowing. The rivers and lakes
were practically free OF ice es-
pecially the former.
The spring of 1910 has not
quite broken the 1877 record
but came. however, within ten
days of doing so. Farmers
are now blowing and garden
stuff is being made ready for
planting. The snow has disap-
peared and. barring a few places
in sheltered spots the frost has
taken it's departure.
The Eagle chain of lakes are
now free of ice. Last Saturday
Bent butcher and Lou Zimpel-
man crossed Eagle lakeon the ice.
Sunday the ice went out in that
body of water. Now the chain,
as far as the Long lake thorough
fare is free and open to naviga-
ton. Lakes up around State
Line and Cisco will be clear by
tomorrow, if the high winds con-
tinue.
For the past two weeks genu-
inc spring weather has held and
everybody looks for a banner
season. The only thing now
lacking is a good steady down
pour of rain to lessen the danger
| from fires and start plant life.

DANGER OF FOREST FIRE
Care Should Be Exercised
In Allowing Fires to Start
During Dry Spell.

There is great danger all over
the northern section of Wiscon-
sin from fires breaking out and
due caution should be exercised
by everybody. Dry grass, leaves
and rubbish will start fire
going very easily. Lack of rain
and the extreme warm weather
and high winds make ii exceed
ingly dangerous both in the for
ests, cut-over lands and in the
villages. AS it is several fires
have broken out within the past
few DAYS in different localities
and only hard work saved them
from spreading and doing un-
told damage to timber and
property.

WANTED BY OFFICERS
Cravey Alleged to Be
Old Time Offender, In
Oneida County Jail.

The following taken from the
Rhinelander New North speaks
of a fellow who made Eagle
River his headquarters for a
week during the fore part of this
month. While here he passed
himself off as a prize fighter and
tried to engineer bout several
different times with some of the
local scrapper talent. When he
left here he went to Three Lakes
and was then a land agent.
Says the New North:
Montey Cravey, said to be
wanted by the police of Apple
ton and other Wisconsin cities,
was arrested by Sheriff Jillson
at Amigo last Friday on war
rant charging him with obtain
ing money under false pretenses.
His preliminary hearing was ad-
journed until next Monday.
The complaint was made
against Cravey. by ". Wilson,
proprietor of the Monico house
at Monico. Mr.. Wilson saws
that Cravev remained at his
hotel for several days without
paying any board on the pre-
tense that he was expecting
money in a letter. He also OBJ
tanned merchandise from Mr..
Wilson for which he did not pay.
1t was a case. of the old, old
story, the long expected check
never arrived and in the mean
time Cravey made his departure
for pastures new. twas learned
that the fellow had made his
appearance in Amigo and war
rant was issued by Mr.. Wilson
for his arrest. Sheriff Jillson had
no difficulty in locating his man
at our sister city and by late
Friday night he was safely
lodged in the county Jail.
A short time ago Chief Straub
received from the sheriff at Apple
ton card bearing Cravey's des-
cription together with an offer
of one hundred dollars reward
for the mans arrest. Later adj
vices from Appleton state that
Cravey is wanted there on a sim
liar charge to the one for which
he is being held in this city 1t
is thought that he is also wanted
