GAME WARDENs EXAMINATION
Was Held at Madison Last Week. War
dens Must Be Experts on Fish and
Game to Win Promotion.

Il Here are few of the things that are
expected of Wisconsin game wardens;
Must know all of the fish and game
laws as thoroughly as a paid lawyer.
Must be able to hop, skip and jump
as well as trained athlete.
i Must be able to shoot as accurately
rs Buffalo Bill in his best day.
Must know all about fish and game,
what they eat, how they live, as well
a. be able to pronounce their names as
they are given in the dictionary.
Must be able to write well, spell cor
rsctly, and to answer promptly any
and all questions about the enforce
ment of fish and game laws in this
state.
Over sixty game wardens spent yes
terday wracking their brains to pass an
examination given in the court house.
To stand high in the test means ad-
vancement in the service; better work
and better pay. The promotions are
based upon merit test.
During the day there was a written
and oral examination touching upon
questions of law and fish and game.
The physical examination of the war
dens included number of short runs
and series of stunts in hop, skipping
and jumping. Men in the service must
be active physically, as in many cases
offenders and violators frequently try
to get away by beating it." State
Game Warden Sholts says he has fine
bunch of sprinters in service, and Of
tenders who try to get away batter use
motorcycles. The examination came
to close last night with a question
box program. From time to time the
wardens face situations not always COW
cred by law. They are forced to use
their own Judgment and to act quickly.
Situations of this character were dis
cussed last night. The wardens took
part in general discussion.

WABENO MAN
AN INVENTOR.
J. A. Bradley Secures Patent on An
Automatic Switch Controlling
Mechanism

/ J. A. Bradley Of this village received
his patent on an automatic switch con
trolling mechanism from the commits
sioner of patents at Washington D. C.
last Saturday.
The new switch is simple, econom.
ical and effective machine for eontroll
ing railway switch from car or tbs
sab of locomotive in motion:
! The construction and arrang cement
is such that by manual operation q
tappet carried by the car is shifted in.
to and out of engaging positions with
star wheel, whereby motion is i'm.
parted to the latter, which motion is
transmitted to cam-controlled switch
lever in alternate impulses to throw
said switch from open to closed posi-
tion or vice versa, the power for act
uating the star wheel being impaired
thereto by the travelof the caror other
vehicle to which the teppet is applied.
The great advantages of the new
switch are, that the rolling stock need
not be brought to a stand still to
throw the switch, the same being
quickly effected by the motorman or
engineer without changing his working
position.
The patent letters give Mr.. Bradley,
his heirs. or assigns, the exclusive right
to make, use and vend the invention
throughout the United States for term
of seventeen years. The inventor has
filed his intention of taking out pa
tent in Canada.
Mr.. Bradley's new switch possesses
considerable merit and he has been
flooded with letters asking if he would
sell the patent rights and to quote his
price for same.
Mr. Bradley is at present negotiating
with several manufacturing companies
to build for him small model track
and car with the new switch installed.
He will then submit the model to trac-
ton companies and railroads.
Mr.. Bradley has been working on
the invention of an automatic switch for
the past four years. He was at one
time employed as a motorman on q
street car at MarinetSe and it was then
he conceived of the idea of switch
which would do away with the neces-
sity of getting off the car to open OF
close. He made several rough
models but in each one there would be
some part that would not work ac-
cording to his plans. He worked
away and finally lat summer succeed-
ed in projecting the plans of the pre-
sent switch. He then went to Milwau-
kee and had the several parts of the
switch constructed at a machine shop.
He also had constructed for his own
use a miniature track and car and in
stalled the switch. 1t was success
and he applied for patent.

Rivalry between the candidates fol

to remain in the race.
The interest in the election is gaug.

the history of the organization. It is
said that last year there were only
about 400 ballots cast.
Out of the turmoil of the election
one thing was taken as a certainty. C.
