NEW DIRECTOR FOR CHORUS.
H. r. Hilbourne Unable to Serve Any
Longer as Director of Arion Chorus.

Last Tuesday evening at the regular
rehearsal of the Arion Male Chorus, II.
r. Hilbourne who has efficiently serv-
ed as director of the chorus for the
past two years since its organization,
rendered his resignation which was
very reluctantly accepted by the mem
bers, even though Mr.. Hilbourne gave
reasons which would prevent him from
being present to direct the chorus dur
ing the coming spring and summer
months. The condition of his health
has neeessitated that he get out into
the open air and consequently he will
engage in the pursuit of farming in
the near future.
AS the matter of selecting a new
director confronted the members,
Mr.. r. f. Fulton was unanimously
chosen to direct the chorus in the
future. Mr.. Fulton has been one of
the most enthusiastic and faithful
members of the organization since it
was formed and has sung in the first
bass section. The interest he has shown
is reflected in the faithful and talent
ed service OIL his daughter, Miss Lala
Fulton who has acted as pianist
and who has been so neces
| saIv to the success of the organization
/ That Mr.. Fulton will succeed in his
position as director is assured as he has
had extensive experience in male quar-
tette and chorus work and he has Q
good knowledge of music. The mem
bers of the chorus have the greatest
confidence in his ability and pledgs
their hearty support to his direction
Mr.. Hilbourne. has shown marked
ability as leader and his efforts
have resulted in training number OF
amateur vocalists so that their ever.
i appearance in public has received grea1
praise. A unanimous vote of thanks
was rendered him for his faithful ser
/ vice as director by the members. H.
has served in that capacity merel,
from love of the work and by reason o.
the good fellowship which has existed
From a renumerative standpoint, Hill
J bourne has given, not received, and i
J is for this splendid spirit on his par
that the members feel greatly indebted
to him for his services in the past an,
, his promise to be present at regula
rehearsals, as often as possible wa
hailed with joy.

Inc cornerstone of the shaft was
laid September 10, 1918, the one hun
dredth anniversary of the battle of
Lake Erie, in the presence of repre-
sentatives Of the national government
and the states of Ohio, Pennsylvania
Michigan, Illinois, Wisconsin, New
York, Rhode Island, Kentucky, Mime
sofa and Louisiana.
The memorial as a whole was de-
signed as monument to Commodore
Oliver Hazard Perry and his men,
victors in the battle fought on Putin
Bay that permanently fixed the pres
ent boundary line between the United
States and Canada in the Great Lakes
section and on east to the Atlantic.
For one hundred years the gallant
Perry and his men had been all but
forgotten, the only tribute to their
memory being a little pyramid of
rusty cannon balls in one of the pub
lie parks at Put-in-Bay.
It was after the memorial had been
designed that the possibilities that
strong rays of light shed from the top
of the Doric column or main shaft
might be the means of saving lives or
serve to protect against an enemy
became apparent and steps were taken
to establish the landmark that the
federal government has pust rec
ognized.
The Doric column is little more than
a central point around which much
costly structural work remains to be
done. A museum is to be erected at
the right of the plaza, in the center of
which 1t rests. A statue fanked by
colonnade typifying Peace and Arbi-
tration, will be erected on the left.
The work is of such nature that It
must necessarily proceed slowly.
There is, every promise, however, that
at the end of another year the plans
will have been BROUGHT full fruition.

RAISE GAME BIRDS
Minnesota Folk Plan to Cultivate
Wild Duck.
viii Also Go in For Quail and Pleas.
ant, If Market for Them Develops
TO Distribute From 5000
to 10000 Eggs.

Minneapolis.-More than 100 resi-.
dents on the $4,000 acres of land with
in the Minnetonka game refuge will
raise mallard ducks, pheasants and
quail next season and if their ex-
periments prove as successful as
those Of people In other states, these
three varieties of game birds may
soon be as readily obtainable in the
markets as chickens, turkeys and
geese are now.s From 5000 to TO-
600 eggs are to be distributed among
those who will encourage the propaga-
ton of wild life and If the ratio of
young birds to eggs holds true, the
refuge will be heavily stocked, while
outside of it by 1917 there should be
more birds as fair marks for sports
men than there are now under pro-
lection.
Thus, while the refuge remains q
haven wherein fowl may breed, there
will be enough game outside to keep
the huntsmen busy.
1t is estimated by Frank d. Blair,
Field Superintendent of the Mime
sofa Game and Fish Protective
league, that within the prescribed
territory about 1000 mallards, from
5000 to 10000 quail and no more than
a dozen pheasants have been taking
shelter.
At the end Of two seasons he be.
lieves that there will be 10000 OF
10000 birds, the most marked in
crease being among the pheasants-
now very rare-which should be 5000
strong.
THE rate of increase of these wild
birds in captivity is remarkable" said
Mr.. Blair the other day. "Mallards
will lay an average of 40 eggs sea.
son, quail from 80 to 50, and pheasants
from 80 to 40. When they are liv-
ing IN wild state they usually lay
several patches of eggs and then hatch
out only one batch, while in captiV-
ity all the eggs are saved. Birds
Matched will average roughly about
so per cent of the eggs.
"The most serious difficulty con.
fronting those who experiment in the
propagation Of wild birds is in keep
ing them separated from poultry.
They are especially susceptible to dis
eases that are communicated from
coops and land where chickens have
been. A bantam hen is most generally
used to set on the eggs and frequently
breeders make the mistake of turning
the young birds loose in the chicken
yards along with the hen.
The Minnetonka residents who ex-
peCt to raise mallsrds, pheasants and
quail are actuated by a desire to in
crease the number Of birds within
the refuge. Though they will be put
to some trouble, the re2urns eventu-
ally, they believe, will more than Of
set the tribulations."

GUIDE. TO MARINERS
Perry Memorial on Lake Erie
Proves Its Utility.
DorIo column 1896 Feet High ls Sur
mounted by Powerful Lights, Visl-
BILE at Great Distance-De-
signed as Monument.

Sandusky, O.-The Doric column or
main shaft Of the Perry memorial at
Put-in-Bay, recently completed, has
come to be considered an important
landmark by Great Lakes region mar
iners. Visible by day from points afar,
it serves as a guide through the
northern course, between the Cana
dian mainland and the shores of the
islands comprising the Lake Erie
archipelago, and the treacherous
south passage, between the islands
on the south and the Ohio shores. By
night it's powerful lights can be seen
from almost any point in Lake Erie
between Cleveland on the east and
Toledo and Detroit on the west.
In the United States lake surveys
current bulletin the shaft is described
as located at about the middle of
the low, narrow neck of land forming
the southernmost shore of Put-in-Bay
island, in approximately latitude Al
degrees, 80 minutes and IA seconds
north; longitude so degrees, 4S min.
utes and Al seconds west"
The government officially describes
the shaft as "a Doric column of white
granite, surmOunted by a bronze
tripod and bowl containing electric
lamps which cast an indirect illu-
mination through plate glass COW
ering," and mentions that the column
is As feet in diameter at the base and
1886 feet In height, measured from the
terrace at its base to the top Of the
tripod, and forms a conspicuous land
mark from tina lska

MOUNTAIN LIONS ARE SCARCE
Huntsmen in Northern Counties Of
California Have Practically Ex-
terminated the Breed.

Sacramento, Cal.-Reports to the
state comptroller indicate that the
huntsmen of the northern counties of
the state have practically extermi-
mated the mountain lions. Last month
only four mountain lions we're killed
In California, as against close upon
200 for the same period a decade ago.
Three Of the four were killed in the
southern counties-one each in Los
Angeles, Tulare and Kern, the fourth
one being killed in Humboldt county.
The bounty paid for the pelts by the
state was $50 for June.
Indications are that efforts Of stock
raisers during the past quarter Of
century have resulted in the practical
extinction Of the animal Bounties
have been paid upon $4,000 mountain
lions in the past rs years.
