FEWER BASS THIS YEAR.
Scarcity Of Rain Has Caused Small
Z. Lakes to Dry Up-Fry Dying.

Members of the Minnesota Game
and Fish commission, have been
down the river as far as Winona
looking, over the prospect of gather
ing the small bass with which the
propagating ponds at Glenwood are
stocked, but their reports are some.
what discouraging. Indications now
are that there will be scarcity of
bass in Minnesota for the next two
years.
1t has been customary to gather
the little bass before the water
receded, but this year the water has
not been high enough to allow the
usual seining operations. Therefore,
the number of bass fry that will be
placed in captivity will be smaller
than usual. 1t takes three years fol-
bass to attain the, proper size for
anglers. According to reports which
have been made to the state board
of health, large quantities of fish
in the shallower lakes throughout
the state are perishing during this
dry season. when the water gets
low, and the sun heats it, said DR..
H. M. Bracken, secretary of the
board, fish do not live long. There
are many lakes throughout the state
that are low. and the fish are
suffering"

CLAIM LOFBERG MADE
TRIAL COUPLING IN 3 rs
Grand Rapid. Editor Says Better Time
Was Made in Practice Than in
the Event. ".

The Grand Rapids Herald Review
says in an article printed in this
weeks paper that Lofberg, the
Grand Rapids coupler, made several
couplings before the official contest
in 3 rs seconds. In view of this
record, Lofberg should be more than
willing to meet Ray Dennis in a
match.
The Herald-Review article is as
follows: 81.
At the tournament held at Grand
Rapids in June by the Northern
Minnesota Firemen's Tournament
association, Lofberg, assisted by
Joe Cloutier, made the coupling in
the phenomenal fast time of 3 3-5
seconds. At the tourney of the
western division, which was held at
Bemidji, Dennis made the coupling
in four seconds fiat. ..E Z
r. when the western division
learned of the fast time made by
Lofberg, its members Immediately
made a howl that he had beat the
gun and insinuated the timekeepers
were not fair and lot of other rot.
During practice, before the event
was pulled off, Lofberg made the
coupling in 3 rs seconds as can be
attested by a large number who
witnessed the coupling and his
friends feel confident that if a match
arranged between him and the Be-
midi boy, he will learn the western
division members something about
coupling"
Another fifty dollars is in sight
for bet on Dennis, making the
total one hundred and fifty dollars.
Focal fremen are still waiting to
hear from Grand Rapids. 5- -.

strong teams in that vicinity during
the next few days. Fosston played
here several weeks ago and the
game proved the fastest played on
the local grounds, Fosston winning
out in a l to O score.
Cass Lake feels confident that
they will be able to turn the tables
on their rivals tomorrow, as their
infeld is now better than ever, being
the fastest in the north half of the
state. Schmidt for Cass Lake and
Narveson for Fosston will be the
opposing pitchers and a contest
worth going many miles to see will
be the result.

A Matrimonial Pilgrimage.

The sister of Simon Newcomb, the
great astronomer, tells, in the Octo-
Der McClure's, of their fathers, John
Newcomb's wanderings in search Of
a wife, whom he had decided to Sc
lect in accordance - with scientific
theories:
John Newcomb stopped at farm
houses for his refreshment, and in
each house, if there was a daughter
of manageable age, he tarried per-
haps a day, or eve longer, to make
a study of the maiden. He always
made himself "handy" about the
place, drawing up water with the
great well-sweep, bringing in fire.
wood-doing anything that he could
do and still keep near the daughter.
disappointment met him at every
door. At one house the cooking was
poor; at another the house was not
neatly kept; at a third there&was
scolding or fanlt-finding, a want of
harmony-and In all the maidens a
lack of desire for learning or educa-
ton. One young women little knew
by what a narrow margin she missed
her fate. All was going smoothly till,
when she was molding the dough for
the baking-pans, he noticed that a
considerable portion of the dough
was left in the wooden kneading-
trough. He asked her the reason for
this, and her reply was that she left
it for the horse, because he was fond
of it. She always did this. she said
there was plenty. Want of thrift,
decided the young man, and he
shouldered his bundle and walked
on"
