Industry on Prince Edward Island
Merged-Season Now Open.
Charlottetown, Il. T.. l., June 1.-The
lobster fishing season is now in full
swing in this province and from pres
ent indications it will be a more sue
cessful season than last year, the lob
ster being more plentiful and much
larger The season this year for the
great part of the coast has been short
ened ten days and will close June 10.
The Importance of the lobster indus
try in Prince Edward Island may be
judged from the fact that last year the
pack was valued at $75O,O00. OF late
there has been strong tendency to-
ward the consolidation of the factor
les. In several section nine and ten
factories have merged into one. The
expense has been reduced by closing
the smaller factories and doing all
the packing in the largest factory of

FANS LOOK FORWARD TO
SATURDAYS MATCH GAME
BELIEVE CONTEST BETWEEN
CALUMET AND LAKES WILL
BE SEASONS BEST.

Calumet baseball fans are manifest
ing deep interest in the baseball game
scheduled for Saturday afternoon al
! the Athletic park, between the Calu-
met and Lake Linden teams, for a
side bet OF $50. Since the champion
ship of the &. Il ii. league was deter
mined last Saturday, there have been
frequent discussions of the merits of
the respective teams, and despite the
fact Calumet did not qualify for par
ticipation in that special champion
ship series, there are plenty of fans
who have confidence in the ability of
the locals to win.
A mistaken impression prevails that
the team which will face Lake Linden
is Manager Dan Cusicks all-star
team, the aggregation which recently
invaded Ontonagon county success
fully. Manager James Ashton of the
Calumet team denies this, however,
and asserts the Calumet league team
is the one which will be pitted against
the Lakes. Foley will pitch for Calu-
met and Glesner for the visitors
Arrangements are being made 10
open the sale OF tickets in the Torch
Lake towns, and a brisk demand for
pasteboards is already in evidence in
Calumet. There is little question that
crowd almost as large as that OF
last Saturday, will be In attendance.

commission on the roads from Man
haitian To Cliff, from Mohawk to Gay
and from Central to Delaware. EN-
cellent progress has been made and
these roads are already in much better

years. The work has consisted chiefly
of resurfacng. the places in the worst
condition having been first improved.
II additional funds can be obtained,
the work will be continued along lines
laid out by County Engineer Carl
Smith.
The board of supervisors has made
provision for highway Improvement
fund OF $4,000 which will be at the
disposal of the road commission next
year. making possible other extensive
improvements in the road system. AL
though this fund is not available for
the commission this fall, it is possible
a short time loan can be arranged,
and provision for repayment from the
highway Improvement fund made.
In addition to the work being done
by the county. Eagle Harbor township
has a force of men at work on the road
from Eagle Harbor TO Delaware and
Houghton township has undertaken TO
improve the road from Phoenix To
