The county commissioners are rec
ognized as pretty level-headed
bunch of fellows peaceably inclined,
at least they do not travel about with
"chips on their shoulders" But there
was an occurrence in their office Mon
day forenoon that gave conclusive
proof that one Of the commissioners
was an adept in the art Of wrestling,
if not past master. in jiu jitsu. Ex-
commissioner Mahlon Fretz while in
the commissioners Office Monday was
discussing the difference Of age be-
tween his own and that Of Commission
er Starr. The difference was one
year in favor of Starr. Whereupon
Fretz declared that he was able to
lay Starr upon his back cen though
the latter was younger by year. Th'
coats Of both men were off in twink
ling and the way chairs records, heels

WITHOUT A LICENSE, MAYBE

A Columbus dispatch says that
many members of the Legislature
who hail from the rural sections have
begun to clamor for the repeal of the
hunters license law on the ground
that the law was misinterpreted by
most of the hunters, who consider that
under it's provisions they have great
er rights than they really have.
These rural members say they can
cite numerous instances wherein hunt
ers have trespassed upon farms, be-
lieving that because they had obtained
license they were perfectly privi-
legged to hunt, wheresoever they
pleased. The result has been severe
friction between hunters and the own
ers of farms.
When the law was enacted it was
pointed out several times that it gave
the hunter no more real rights than
he had before, and that especially il
did not in the slightest infringe upon
the authority Of a owner of farm
to prohibit hunting thereon if he saw
fit. In other words, it was shown that
under the new statute the hunter
would have to obtain first license tt
hunt anywhere and then right tc
hunt upon individual farms, W
The plant of the farmers is tina
the hunters interpret the new law tt
suit their own needs, and believe tina
because they have license they cal
hunt at any place at any time. There
is a good deal of explaining beinl
done now to prevent the movement 70

ton. This much is certain, that

Y. NJ. C. A. Notes;

Fresh maple sugar has been in evi
dence as principal social feature of
various local organization meetings
during the past week. On Friday
evening the Weymouth boys held a
joint open meeting with the girls Of
the "R. d. G." club, at the school
house. After lively debate on
Woman Suffrage" won by the girls
on q close margin, all were served
with warm maple sugar. In place Of
their regular meeting this week the
Granger boys met at, the home Of G..
Ganyard. A delightful evening of
games and music, eliminated with
"first run" sugar from the Beachler
bush. Mrs. Ganyard graciously add
ed pickles and homemade buns to the
main article Of diet. The occasion
was greatly appreciated by the boys
and left "sweet taste" that will
last a long time. The Brunswick or
ganization also planned recently to
have maple sugar feast, details of
which have not been learned.

story of the adventures of a
 man with many aliases, which bears a striking resemblance to some of the many transactions in high finance as manipulated by our former townsman, Geo. Cappelle, is contained in an is sue of the Boise, Idaho, Statesman, of January 10, and if We mistake not the peculations described were the work of the Cordovan, who has final ly landed in jail for buying a hand some touring car with bogus check on an Alaska bank. Here Is the story.
 As a double-eyed deceiver, Sidney Chapelle, late of Toronto. Canada, has the celebrated Rallies and all the other gentlemen crooks of fiction, beat en to a frazzle. Capelle has so many aliases that few of his friends call him by the same name, but at present he is registered under the above handle at the Hennepin coun- ty jail, Minn., awaiting trial on for gerry charge.
 Several weeks ago Chapelle hit Min. neapolis with a loud metallic sound. He had money to burn and when he let the fact leak out that he was in the market for a high-grade motor car, Minneapolis dealers fell over themselves to land his order. He was a critical buyer and the job was no easy one, but one automobole com pany in Minneapolis finally landed his signature on an order for a six. In payment the gentlemanly C'iapelle rendered a check on the Valdez flank, of Valdez, Alaska. The check seemed to be perfectly regular and was duly certified as to it's validity. Chapelle's car was placed in condition for a long tour and the day after the sale he headed south. The check was not only found to be worthless, but the forger had even faked the certifcation.
 At the request of the Minneapolis dealers the company notified all it's dealers to watch for the six with Cha belle at the wheel. Within two weeks

CHINA IS COMPELLED BY
 TWO GOVERNMENTS

PEKING. Jan. 11-(Correspondence of the Associated Press) the Manchu imperial family still re- mains in Picking, maintains military bodyguard and conducts it's court, the amendments of the Republican ad- ministration upon the Forbidden City continue.
 For some time only about one-half of that vast enclosure which lies a. cross the center of Picking has been reserved and forbidden" for the boy emperor and his retinue. The other half, that to the south, has been con trolled by the present government; and troops of the Republic have been quartered in the spacious halls where the emisaries from dependencies kow- lowed before the Great Ching" Mon arch. The Republican administra- ton has repainted these buildings and cleaned up the court yards where in the personages of the former spec tacular regime covered their rich robes with dust.
 Now the new government has op- ened this southern section of the pre- serves to any and every visitor who cares to pay the Mexican dollar fee. The charge is for admission to the new museum, designed on foreign lines, containing treasures from the Manchu palaces at Jehol and Mukden in Manchuria.
 It is reported that the administra- ton has treasures (which are re- nowned throughout Europe and Amer ica) which shall be in part sold to collectors from abroad-Europe. America and Japan and that the proceeds shall be divided between the Republican government and the I'm perial family. It Is proposed that these articles, which are held In du- plicate, and also those of no historic or antique value, shall be disposed of to foreigners. The treasures com prise largely gifts from minor princes to Manchu monarchs, many being the rare workmanship of ancient artizaEs.

word was received from tho Nashville agency that the car and driver were
 identified and apprehendej at that city. In an interview given out at the Minneapolis jail, Chapelle claimed that he might have saved himself had he disposed of he car, and he told his story as follows;
 '1 left Minneapolis the afternoon of November 15, and headed southeast with the idea of going directly to Louisville, Ky. Upon consulting my road map, however. I came to the con clusion that a better route would be through Clinton. Iowa, Aurora H., and LaPorte, Ind, thus getting the benefit of better roads. I want to say right here that I have driven a lot of high priced cars during the past five years, but this car was a revelation to me, in the ease with which it took me over the toughest roads, through mud and snow and every rotton condition imaginable. I averaged better than sixteen miles to a gallon of gasoline during the whole trip from Minneapolis to Nashville, Tenn, where they caught me.
 "At LaPorte, while was having the car filled with gasoline. a couple of fly cops came 'mooching' around and examined the car carefully. One of them remarked to the other that this car never came rom Minneap- oils as the tires do not show any wear whatever After some little con versation with me regarding the weather, condition of the roads, etc, they moved away. much to my re- lief.
 "The trip from LaPorte to Nash vile was uneventful except for a lit tie hill-climbing contest which I en- gagged in at Frankfort, Ky. There is a hill about a mile long leading out of Frankfort. I took five people up this winding hill in high gear at a speed not exceeding fifteen miles an hour. One or two of the passengers were so impressed by this perform ance that they wanted to buy the car on the spot, and wish l had sold it. I had become attached to 1t, howev- CT, that could not entertain the thought of parting with 1t, and as a consequence I am languishing here awaiting the action of the grand jury"
