The new game and fish law now up
before the legislature is a very COM
prehensive bill and in the main will
go as far as any game law likely can
toward the protection of game and
fish and at the same time allow hunt
ing and fishing under reasonable re-
strictions. The proposed law makes
the closed season on trout fishing from
May, except on meandered streams.
If the Big Wood river below the Mag
ic dam is not a meandered stream,
there should be an exception apnly-
ing to this part of the river extend
ing the open season to the first of
December. Owing to irrigation opera
tions the fishing during the summer
months on this portion of Big Wood
river is very poor, especially for fly
fishing. There is so much water in
the stream that it is almost impos-
sible and very dangerous to wade it
during the summer months when the
maximum of irrigation water is used.
This renders 1t almost impossible to
fish the stream, and besides the water
is so hight that trout do not rise to
the fly. The fly fishing is during the
latter part of September, October and
November, the latter being one of the
best months in the entire year Clos
ing the season November LIST would
cut out one of the best months for
fishing on this stream, and would con-
fine the season of good fishing to prac-
tically the month of October. The
supply of irrigation water that is car
ried in the stream is reduced along in
September, which causes the stream
to fall to point where fishing is
possible. The sportsmen of Jerome
are interested in the matter and pro-
tests against closing the season No
vember 1st have gone in. The sports
men of Shoshone and other localities
interested should also request that the
season close on this stream a month
later, or on December 1st which would
be satisfactory.-Nort Side News.

THE PERILS OF PAULINE
SYNOPSIS
Written By Charles Goddard

Stanford Marvin, wealthy manufac-
turer of automobiles, has worn HIM
self out by overwork. His son Harry,
and his adopted daughter, Pauline,
love each other, but she wants to see
two years of thrilling adventures be-
fore marrying. Her reason is that she
is ambitious to be a writer. Old Mr..
Marvin asks to see what she has writ
ten. While Pauline and Harry are in
search of a magazine containing her
first story, Mr.. Marvin opens the case
of mummy just received from Egypt.
Raymond Owen, his rascally private
secretary, helps lift off the front of
the case, but leaves old Mr.. Marvin to
remove the mummy's bandaSes alone.
Marvin during fainting spell, sees
the half-exposed mummy come to life,
step out of her case, take a bracelet
from her wrist and try to force it into
his hands, while her lips reveal a
strange message from the remote past.
Restored to consciousness by Harry
and Pauline, the old man believes it
all dream, until, later, he finds the
identical bracelet on the mummy's
skeleton wrist. He promises Pauline
one year to see life and places her in
the guardianship of Owen. A final
heart attack gives him just time to
write on the doctors prescription pad
very brief and simple will. Then he
dies. A lawyer tells Owen that he
would have permanent charge of Pau
lines vast estate if something should
happen to her before she marries.
Hicks, racetrack man, whispers a
suggestion to Owen, but the secretary
refuses to have anything to do with
him, for the time at least. Hicks and
Owen introduce reformed pirate, who
tells Pauline of hidden treasure, and
they take passage to the island of Mas
sau to recover the treasure.
A clock-work bomb is exploded on
the yacht chartered to seek for the
treasure, and Pauline and Harry (whC
had gone along as a half-breed cook
narrowly escape death.

BENEFIT TO RETAILERS
Topic Discussed by Directors of Mer-
chants Committee-Supper Tonight
Thursday Closing Planned.

The directors of the Putnam Bush
ness Mems Association and the Mer-
chants Committee of the same organi-
cation held a joint meeting at e. c.
Morse's office Tuesday evening. to dis
cuss plans for the benefit Of the re-
tailers of Putnam, and to arrange for
offering membership privileges to a.
larger number of men engaged in ac-
tive trade.
The Merchants Committee has been
Omer j. Milot, chairman; Chester NJ
Elliott. Howard B. Deacon Walter ].
Bartlett and William D. Wilson. They
are making plans for Merchants ev-
entng at. an early meeting of the AS
ISOLATION as there are a number Of
important questions on which a great
er degree OF cooperation among the
local stores would be money made and
saved for each. 1t is pointed out that
several associations such as this have
made their greatest success based on
exchange of credit information and
collection Of bad debts as an associa-
ton doing this work at cost and
backed by the whole body OF business
interests can collect more cheaply and
surely and insure against heavy loss
tht careless and professional bad debts
can cause.
Notice is given of a motion to
amend the constitution by changing
Commerce. This name is the most
common today and the state and ma
tional bodies use it also. 1t suggests
the scope Of an organization that will
deal with broad general questions Of
city improvement and not business
alone. 1t is also a shorter and more
convenient name. Some people feel
that one who is not in business for
himself has no place in business
mans association, but would of course
be welcome in q chamber of commerce.
The directors, made up of the offic-
ers and the executive committee, will
meet this Thursday evening at six
o'clock at the Putnam Inn. They have
asked the merchants committee, and a
few other members to join them there
to discuss soliciting members. The
members who attend will take supper
together, each paying for his own
score.
The merchants committee is form
ulating plans for Thursday afternoon
closing during July and August, begin
ming July 9Th. The initiative comes
this year from the store-keepers, and
not from the clerks.

also in regard to a trip to New York
about Christmas of 1918. She denied
that she had made any of the state

told of seeing the defendant there when
he went to Baltic in March of 1894,
and from then until few days be-

taken, after which the arguments were
begun, with permission to Attorney

Arguments for Plaintiff.
William A. King began the argu-

the case, and claiming an annulment,
If the facts contenteded for were

with an argument for the defense con-
tending that an annulment could not

interview in question he presented
many facts and figures to uphold his
contention that this country is safe
from invasion. When asked if the Ger
mans could not land on our seacoast
and march inland without any great
resistance, Colonel Anderson smiled
and at once recalled a conversation
he had one time with General Sher-
man:
Some time after the close of the
Civil war there were some differences
between the United States and Eng
land, which for time threatened to
result in serious trouble. AS the feel
ing was getting more and more strain
ed asked General Sherman If it would
not be possible for the English to
land troops in the United States.
Yes replied General Sherman.
They surely could land troops on our
soil and march inland. They might
even march as far as the Mississippi
river. But may the Lord pity them
when they started to march back.
There would not be one left to reach
the coast
THAT is the exact view I take of
the possibility of the Germans landing
on American soil today"

asked her what Mrs. Lyman said when
she was at the hospital If she said
she had had a child formerly, or that

COL. ANDERSON OPTIMISTIC.
Convinced the Nation Is Better De.
Tended Than Many Believe.

1.-THE United States government is
not asleep. The United States navy
is in splendid condition. The United
States army is powerful and well
equipped. From the regular army and
state militia can be drawn first class
officers sufficient to lead a million men,
or two million, if needed
With these striking sentences Col
onel Edward Anderson, formerly pas
tor of the Congregational church here,
sums up his opinions of this countrJss
preparedness in an interview given at
his home in Quincy to a representa-
tive of n Boston paper and discounts
the war scares" that are receiving
so much attention. Incidentally what
Rev. Mr.. Anderson has to say is not
at all in accord with the opinions of
at least one former secretary of the
navy and other noted persons who
have discussed the great question very
Gently.
Ever since the Civil war, when he
was leader of a cavalry brigade of
5000 men, this battle SCARED veteran
has been keeping in close touch with
military matters in the United States.
And since the day when he descended
from his charger he has felt that this
country was safe.
Colonel Anderson, in whose honor
the local camp of Sons of Veterans
is named, is now 81 years of age and
retains in great degree all the alert
mass nf a wonderful mentality. = In the
