WANTS QUAIL SAVED.
Ex-Governor Crawford Tries to Con-
vert Came Warden.

Ex-Governor Samuel ]. Crawford
while in Topeka recently on a visit,
urged Prof Dyche, the fish and game
warden, to save the quail from slaugh-
ter by hunters, declaring that quail
were the most useful and least harm
c1ared Gov. Crawford. hasn't a single
bad habit. 1t saves the farmer thou
sands of dollars a year by eating in
sects which are injurious to farm
crops. A heavy penalty should be laid
on the man who kills a single one.
Prof. Dyche agreed with everything
Gov. Crawford said as to the merits
of the quail Prof. Dyche has made
a thorough study of the quail and its
habits. He did not find solitary
many virtues. He found that in the
spring and summer it lives upon in
sects almost entirely. In one quail's
crop he found more than a thousand
insects. That represented one days
food supply.
''Those thousand insects could do
much harm to growing crops said
the professor, land when you think
of the thousands of quail in one sec
ton of the country each killing a
thousand insects a day, you can have
some idea OF their benefits. In the
fall of the year. when insects disap-
pear. quail live chiefly on weed seed.
That helps the farmers some more"
why not stop their slaughter en-
tirely. them asked the ex-governor.
There is just one reason" replied
Dyche, and it is a selfish reason at
that The only way the fish and game
department in Kansas is maintained
is by license fees collected from the
hunters. Now, if we deprive the hunt
ers Of killing quail they will take out
no licenses and the game department
will have to go out of business The
hunters pay from $4,000 to $4,000
a year to support the department. And
all for the privilege of Strengthening
the poor little quail, the most useful
of all birds. We can not kill the goose
that lays the golden egg Therefore,
we must stand for the killing of the
quail
Dyche Won't Kill Quail
Professor Dyche, perhaps the most
famous hunter in the west says that
he has not killed quail for more
than twenty years and that he will
never kill another one.
THE last time I bagged quail l
felt like a sheep-killing dog" said he.
land I resolved on the spot never to
be guilty of such a trick again."
Governor Crawford thought it was
a sad state of affairs when depart
ment of state had to depend for its
existence upon the destruction of the
quail. at seems-to me- said he. that
Kansas is rich enough to maintain
the game department in a manner that
will permit the game warden to pro-
tect the useful birds. As a matter of
fact, If quails were protected abso-
lutely they would soon save the farm

MUCH COAL IN DUMPS.
Inability of Railroads to Move 1t
Causes Dissension.

Indianapolis, Jan. 10-Mine owners
throughout Indiana are looking to the
coming convention of the United Mine
Workers of America as certain to inaug-
urate contest over the wage scale. The
convention opens here on January is. The
operators have been comforting with each
other and with the operators of other
states by letter and have practically de-
termined to present solid front of OPP
position OF hecontemplated demand for a
wage increase.
They claim that the inability of the
railroads to move ccal from their mines
has caused a great surplus and that if
there should be sudden drop in tempera-
ture and moderate weather they would
have enough mined coal to run far into
the present year.

CONFINEMENT
Some of the folk / used to know
Have grown so rich and proud.
When they used to be so humble-like
And as poor as the law allowed.
Some of the folk who were so rich.
Have fallen by the way;
They plod along in the common path
With debts they can not pay.
And it somehow seems when 1 think
of this,
AS I ponder on the past.
That despite of the fact that I have
to work.
My lot has been we'll cast
I've three square meals most every
day
Good warm clothes to wear.
With plenty of sunshine by the way
And a moderate load of care.
And although Fame has passed me by;
Fortunes failed to knock;
I'm still trying in my own way
And getting over the shock.

ters, pointers, collies and Russian
wolfhounds is as large as is generally
seen in any of the big shows. There are

fine specimens, The Old English sheep
dogs are attracting lot of attention.

The show is being kept in a very
sanitary condition. Disinfectants are
used and the place is neat
and clean.
The exhibits can be seen all day from
10 O'Clock in the morning till 10 at
night. The afternoons and evenings

Many Varieties Shown.
There are some fine exhibits of the

that in many respects the state poul-

LODGES OF CITY MAY DECIDE TO
TAKE UP LONG NEEDED PUBLIC
CONVENTION HALL-IN coNNEc.
TON WITH THEIR LODGE
BUILDING.

1t is probable that the vexed ques-
ton OF a public convention hall and
auditorium for Fargo will be settled in
the near future. AT their Joint rneetina
last night the fratetfAl organizations
OF the city who are planning Oh erect J
ing a joint lodge home discussed the
proposition OF an auditorium hall in
connection with their lodge building
and they were practically unanimously
in favor of such a structure.
The lodges OF Fargo realize the me-
cessity for a public hall big enough
to seat several thousand people as
perhaps no other class OF people do.
There have been many moves to bring
national conventions to Fargo and these
could undoubtedly have been secured
but for the lack of a suitable conven-
ton hail.
It is proposed to build a structure
with an auditorium large enough to
hold from 5000 to 5000 people on the
ground floor and have the lodge rooms
on the second flcor
VIII Put II Up to Lodge Bodies.
1t was decided to. hold the next meet
ing on Feb. 21. This will give every
lodge in the city time to hold meet

sition. Each lodge is to be called upon
to elect one delegate from their body
to represent that lodge in corporation
which it Is proposed to form. This
corporation, consisting of just one
member from each lodge win so ahead
TO raise the funds and erect the build
ing.
Committees were appointed to wait
on all of the fraternal organizations
and present the matter to them.

HOSE ON CARRIE
cUTuP AT WATERFOWL
WHO IMPERsoNATED HATcHET
WIELDER, WAS GIVEN WET RE-
cEPTIoN - TRAVELLER TELLS
THE STORY.

r. s. Ayres, the well known Fargo
traveller, has just returned from
South Dakota and brought with him
a Carrie Nation story which the peo-
pie of Watertown. S. D., won't forget
soon.
1t happened just the time that Car
rie was touring the sister state The
cutup at Watertown figured that it
would be all kinds of sport to dress
up as Carrie, invade a saloon with a
natchet, and start putting the rum
shop out OF business in a forcible way.
Someone was wise and tipped the
baTtenders to the scheme. When
Carrie entered a sprinkling hose was
put into action soaking the invader.
No one has impersonated Carrie in
that section since.
