Did NOT VIOLATE
STATE GAME LAW
MEN WHO SHIPPED FISH IN FROM
CANADA AND PAID DUTY AR
RESTED AT cRooKsToN AND.
DISMISSED ON ORDERS FROM
ATTORNEY GENERAL.

At Crookston, yesterday, three de-
PENDANTS, charged at the instance of
the fish and game commission of Min
nesota, with selling white fish out of
season were dismissed in double-quick
time upon information received from
the office of the attorney general in
St. Paul, to the effect that the game
laws Of the state of Minnesota had
not been violated by sale of white fish
caught in Canadian waters and sold in
Minnesota. The men were promptly
discharged from custody,
The defendants, Nose Giler of Grand
Forks, b. Markovitz of Winnipeg and
b. Starkman of Crookston. They ship
ped in a carload of white fish from a
point near Winnipeg to Crookston.
upon proper bills of lading and all
formalities and charges demanded by
United States customs officers had been
complied with and the fish properly
passed the port of entry into the Unit
ed States. On arrival in Crookston the
fish men began the sale of their goods,
but Immediately the local game warden
there seized the stock and arrested the
owners, and a charge was made of
violating the game laws of the state.
The prosecution was according to in
structions from the attorney generals
office, but after a careful examination
of the laws, state and federal, it was
found that a mistake had been made
and a phone message from st. Paul to
the people at Crookston was to the
effect hat the case be dismissed and
the men discharged p. d. q.
Referring to the ase The Crookston
Times says:
This back somersault in the attorney
generals office was well executed, as
the people of Minnesota really believe
that the legal machinery of Minnesota
can discover, work more profitable to
the people of the state than by prose-
cutting people who are shipping in a
food that can be purchased cheap by
people who are compelled to live as
cheaply as possible.
Recently at Fergus Falls several
fish dealers were arrested and induced
to plead guilty to the same offense,
and paid a fine of $45. If this was not
highway robbery of the accused, and
the improper use of legal machinery,
we would not know how to name it.

BOA CONSTRUCTOR
in A STRAW STACK
FOUND BY FRANK JERRuE ON
THE EAsTLAND FARM, SOUTH
OF THE cITY-Is IN STATE OF
/ COMA AND is A MONSTER
FIFTEEN FEET LONG.

A novelty, in the shape Of a mon
ster boa constructor, is to be seer on
the farm Of Frank Jerrue, known as
the Eastland farm, Moorhead.
This specimen of the serpent species
was found in a state of coma by Mr..
Jerrue in a straw stack, on his farm
yesterday. The reptile is six to eight
inches thick and fifteen feet long and
to all appearances is frozen stiff. 1t
is the first specimen of the kind eve
heard Of in this region, at least not
since the departure of the Indians
from the plains Of Minnesota. Mr..
Jerrue and his neighbors think that
perhaps the boa may be the one which
escaped from the Barnum & Bailey
animal show which exhibited in Fargo
last year. Those interested in snake
ology are invited to go and view the
reptile at their Commencement is in
Mr.. Jerrue's barn sleeping peacefully,

ABDICATION Is
EXPECTED soon

Shanghai, Jan. 25.--It is expected
here, in republican circles, that an inn
periaI ediet announcing the abdication
of the throne will be issued before the
armistice between the imperialists n
republicans expires, which, as now ar
ranged, will be Jan. 20. Shortly after
that date it is believed a meeting will
be arranged between Pres. Sun Vat Sen
and Yuan Shi Kai, at which details
will be drafted for the establishment
of a coalition government controlling
the north and south.
1t is understood those who are en-
deavoring to bring about an UNDER
standing between Pekin and Marking
have succeeded in clearing the atmos-
phere of the misunderstanding,
which have hitherto existed. OF course.
whether an eventual agreement be-
tween the two parties will be reached
cannot be foreseen.
Sun Vat Sen today sent a dispatch
to Yuan at Pekin which is said to
have expressed a willingness of the
republican leaders to place the fullest
confidence in Yuan's pledges.

The second shot broke one Of her

sprang on De Beer, missed altogether
and the man was borne down.
In a few seconds he was mauled
and bitten and his left hand severely
Injured. There seemed little hope
that he could escape alive, for his gun
was out of reach and the lion. lying on

But with De Beer was n compan-

FIRST NATIONAL
ENDORSED HANNA
SPLENDID RESOLUTIONS ADOPT
ED BY DIRECTORS OF FIRST
NATIONAL BANK COMMENCING
HIS EFFICIENT SERVICES AS
PRESIDENT or INSTITUTION.

.4"tE.
At the last meeting of the board Of
directors of the First National bank OF
this city, at which time Cong. L. b.
Hanna resigned from the presidency of
that institution, a special committee
vas appointed to draft a set of reso-
buttons commencing his efficient serv-
ices as the head of that banking
house.
The committee comprised W.. A.
Scott, Peter Luger and D.. S. Watson,
and offered the following set of fine
resolutions regarding Mr.. Hanna's
splendid work as president of the First
National bank, also as vice president
and a director of the same. The reso-
lutions have been unanimously adopt
ed by the directors and were given out
today:
We, the undersigned, appointed a
committee to draft resolutions sug-
gested by the retirement of Mr.. Hanna
as president of this bank. submit the
following:
Be it resolved, that in accepting the
resignation of Hon. l.. B. Hanna as
president of this bank, the board of
directors express it's profound appre-
citation of his services both as director,
vice president and president. MI.
Hanna's official connection with the
bank began in 1899. and for most of
that period he has devoted much time,
thought and energy to promoting its
interests. We recognize in him the
possession Of those rare qualities
which inspire confidence among men,
and which have so materially aided in
building UP this bank to its present
recognized position as the largest A.
nancial institution in North Dakota.
Mr.. Hanna's relations with his fellow
directors and with all employees of the
bank have always been intimate and
cordial. We respect and admire Mr..
Hanna as a man and a broad minded
citizen whose connection with the
First National bank at one of it's d.
rectors is, we trust, to continue for
many years.
In seeking a field of action calling
for the use of perhaps q higher range
of mental faculties than a be
brought into play in any specific bust
ness vocation, this board feels assured
that he will perform any duties i'm
posed upon him by the people of this
state with the same fidelity and eff
cheney, that he has ever shown in his
conduct Of the affairs of this bank.
Respectfully submitted,
VIM. A. Scott,
Peter Luger,
