PICKED UP A FlsH-ARREsTED.

The efforts of the poorer classes to
reduce the cost of living has received
a setback in Salina. During the ne
cent high water there, when the
river was out Of its banks, men and
boys stood in the shallow water and
pulled out fish, many Of them weigh
ing twelVe to fifteen pounds. But
the game warden promptly had them
arrested. The fact that garden rakes
and pitchforks we're used, instead Of
hook and line, is responsible for the
arrests. Such is law and justice. d
you see a dollar laying on the walk,
don't pick it up. You might be ar.
rested for taking it. Even the game
wardens ane boosting for the beef

Quite a number Of the old banS
boys have got together and ar'
practcing for the Memorial Day ex
ercises and viii be prepared to fun
nish some fine music on this occasion
And since they have gotten back int
the game it is to be hoped that they
will not again fall into the old run
but will continue their meetings and
practice so that Ellinwood may again
have a fine home band, as in days
gone by. The boys have the ability
to make one Of the best bands in the
state and they should be encouraged
to keep together and build up the or
ganization.
]. c. Koesch was here from St.
John this week for a short visit with
his father and with other relatives.
and friends. Mr.. Koelsch says the
outlook for a wheat crop is very
poor down in his country; that about
hall Of the crop has already been
listed up for corn and much Of that
which is left standing Is but a poor
stand, but most Of the farmers al
ready have al the com ground they
can handle so will let it go and make
what It will. The corn is also not do
ing WE'LL for the wheat ground start
ed to blow out last. fan and doesn't
seem to want to get out Of the habit.
Many Of the farmers have listed their
corn twice, and some will probably
have to plant it a third time.
L. A. John, W. T. Theo, Lucien
Trump, Oscar Schrepel and E. o.
Wagner got a bunch Sunday noon
that there was to be a bali game at
Great Bend that afternoon and auto
ed up to attend the same. When
the arrived there they discovered
that there was to be no game, and so
they started out to find one. There
was nothing doing at Hoisington,
and when they arrived at Clafhn the
team from there was playing a game
at Holyrood and so they headed for
that place, arriving in time to see the
finish OF a fast game between the
Claflin and Hollywood teams, which
was won by the latter by 9 to 8
score. They covered considerable
territory to get to see part Of
a game, but the boys said they en-
joyed the ride anyway.
There was a ball game out at the
farm Sunday between the
Cheyenne township nine and a team
composed of four of the Ellinwood
High School boys, Stephan, Gafford,
RAIDER and Winkleman, and the bal
ance of the boys from north of town
and captianed by Joe Koehler, and
which resulted in a 9 to 0 score in ia
vor of the team, by being forfeited
by the Cheyenne team because Koch
Ter refused to take Ellison out of the
box after he had pitched three in
lings without allowing a hit and
striking out seven men. The feature
