MAY TEAR DOWN
old FIRE HALL
COUNCIL NAMES COMMITTEE TO
PECT FIFTH STREET
PROPERTY. ALLEY PRO-
JECT HELD UP.

The village council of Red Jacket i'm
session last evening instructed the
street and building committee to look
over the old fire hall property ON
Fifth street. with view To razing II
to the ground. The structure has long
been an eyesoTe. Its antiqueness and
dilapidated condition has made 1t
practically worthless, and II is be-
lieved the committee will recommend
that IL be torn down. The council de-
cided some time ago To sell the lot
and building provided suitable price
could be obtained. Negotiations were
entered into with a prospective pur-
chaser at one time, but the deal did not
materialize. 1t is understood that the
village is still willing to dispose of the
property, which 1t owns outright.
Some time ago Village Clerk Ellis
was instructed to write Horace Krupp,
now residing i'm wisconsin. head of
the Krupp estate, owning property on
Pine street, with view To ascertain
ing whether the Krupp estate would
donate a seven-foot strip of it's prop
erty for an alley between Third and
Fourth streets. Blue Jacket. Mr.. Krupp
has replied, offering To sell "A 20-foot
strip, sufficient for roadway, for
SO, 600 or at the rate of $3.50 per square
foot The council could not see 1t i'm
that light last night and allowed the
matter to lie on the table. The G. &
H. Mining company is willing To do
nate seven feet of it's property on the
south side of the proposed alley. and
every other property owner in the vi
cinity also has signed a petition i'm ia
vor of the Improvement. The Krupp
esate is said TO be the stumbling block
to the proposition, and is likely to re-
main so. according to the present Of
fer from the estate.
The members of the council met at
the fire hall at o'clock this afternoon
to look over several horses brought
there for their inspection. The village
is i'm need of one more fire team, and
a purchase will be made.
President Frank II. Schumacher last
evening appointed Joseph Hermann
and James V. Gaul members of the
board of review for the village. The
board will be i'm session tomorrow
and Friday. II is likely that a substi-
tute will have To be named for Mr..
Gaul as he is out of town at present.

AIM TO CONSERVE
THE FISH SUPPLY
BILL INTRODUCED IN CONGRESS
SEEKS INTERNATIONAL
REGULATION IN
THE LAKES.

Washington June THE fishing in
dustry of the Great Lakes and the dis
ciple of Isaac Walton are much inter
ested in bin pending in both houses
of congress, providing a system of uni
form and common international regu-
lations for the protection and preser-
walton of the food fishes of interna-
tional boundary waters of the United
States and Canada. a similar meas
urc will be adopted by the Canadian
parliament.
The regulations were drafted by a
commission created by treaty i'm force
between he American and British gov
ernments, and their purpose is not only
to remove one of the irritating ques-
lions i'm the relations of this country
and it's northern neighbor.
Favor Shown TO Sportsmen.
The regulations make a distinction
between fishing for commercial pur-
poses and fishing for sport. For in
stance, it is ordered that no black bass,
brook trout, land locked salmon or
muskellonge shall be hshed for, killed
or captured for commercial purposes
in treaty waters.
But a sportsman with rod and line,
or hand line, or a trolley line with
spoon hook attached may enjoy MINI
self to his hearts content i'm playing
with or catching this game The only
restriction imposed upon him is that
there shall not be more than three
hooks upon his line, that the brook
trout captured must not be less than
seven inches in length, the black bass
not less than 10 inches, and the mus
kellonge not less than "a inches, and
finally, that not more than 10 black
bass shall be captured i'm one day nor
more than 20 by the occupants of a
single boat.
In the Great Lakes system. no white
fish or lake trout of less than two
pounds weight, no yellow pike of less
than 10 inches, no SAUCER, calico bass
or white bass of less than 10 inches.
and no lake or channel catfish of less
than Is inches can be captured.
Propagate Food Fishes.
Every effort. Also is to be made To
propagate food fishes. IL is proposed
that both the United states and Can
ada shall develop to the fullest extent
the work of propagation.
The bills provide that a person found
guilty of breaking a regulation shall be
fined not moro than $1,000, or impris-
oncd not more than one year or both.
To enforce the regulations, a federal
patrol will be established along the
boundary line.
Realization Of this fact rs responsible
for the distribution of fish and eggs
throughout the Great Lakes system
The federal fish commission allotted
last year TO Michigan 5O,0OO.O0O pike
perch fish eggs. 22,5OO, 900 smelt $780,
900 lake trout and 10000 land locked
salmon.
The Importance of the matter is ex-
pected TO cause congress to act without
delay upon the bills recommended by
the joint commission, and, If passed
during the extra session. the act will
so into effect on January 1. next.

To KILL SELF

Ebenezer Owen, a miner, 20
years of age, made two attempts
to take his own life at Carbonate,
yesterday, and his second attempt,
the slashing of his throat with
a razor all but succeeded. Just
prior to this he narrowly escaped
death under the wheels of a

when friends pulled him off the

and 1t was while under surveill-
ance that he slashed his throat.
He was brought to the county hos
pital In this city and his chances
for recovery are considered good.
