INSPECT FISH HATCHERIES
Annual Tour Of the State Fish Com
mission.

The Wisconsin Fish Commission
made its annual inspection of the vari
Gus fish hatcheries last week. Calvert
Spensley of this place, who was former
ly president of the fish commission but
resigned couple of years ago, accom-
panied the commission as an invited
guest. One of the fish hatcheries is
situated at Wild Rose. Mr.. Spensley
was instrumental in the establishment
of this hatchery.
The Wild Rose Times speaking of
the visit of the fish commission has this
to say of Mr.. Spensley
Many were glad to see Colonel Spens
ley with the commission, even if it was
as a guest. Twenty five years he
served the state as a member. Time
deals kindly with him, for he is hale
and hearty, eye as keen and Judgment
as good as in the days when, looking
ahead, he saw the future glory and
greatness of this industry and kept
headed straight for them. In Badger
car No. 2" hangs his portrait, but in
the hearts of the commission it is also
enshrined with record of good work
that no Wisconsin storms, political or
otherwise can etface or even dim.

Another Reason For a Night Police
man.

A dirty trick and one which might
well have resulted in serious accident
was perpetrated Saturday night on
Fountain street in Mineral Point.
A young man from near the city
who usually leaves his horse tied at the
rock barn back of Gorgen's = store, re
turned at about 10 p. III, to find that
someone had literally cut his harness to
pieces and yet had not entirely cut
through any strap. 1t seems the cul
prit intended not only to destroy prop
erty but to cause physical injury to the
driver. Only the quietness of the horse
and some prompt help from a passerby
prevented the same.
The Democrat is authorized to offer
$25 reward for information leading t.
the arrest and conviction Of the guilty
parties
