New York, July l8.-"If johnny Ev-

the National league umpires have been
instructed TO keep the penuaut race
close, then he viii be punished and
the penalty will be stn enough to
make him think twice before DE makes
such a statement in the future"
This was President Teners am
nouncement on his return to New York
yesterday and after reading tBe acc
counts of the Boston taugle. 4 long
distance conversation with Empires
RigIer and Hart, who were i'm charge
of the Boston game Monday, brought
out the information that they had fall
ed to hear any such talk from tHe ok
Cub star, but Teuer lis not going TO
let the affair drop here lie is going
to Boston today to investigate for him
self and he says there VIII be mo- att
tempt to let the matter drop until o.
final report is made.
The president also explained Hank
O'Day's case. He scoffed al the the
DRY that the umplre-manager was boy

baseball long enough to know better.
To be sure. I might have said any,
thing on the ball field When an uu-
pire hands you one Ike RfgIer did at

variabIy be the result Of hard feel
ing at the time. You're out there hEht-
ing and anything you can get away
with goes. Nobody living could fix
the race Ike the one in the National
league just now lis the greatest
ever and we all have a chance"

Forest Rangers to be Game wardens

A St. Paul Dispatch to the Du-
luth Herald says that by arrange,
ments made with the National For
est Reserve by Carlos Avery, state
game and fish commissioner, all ma.
tional forest rangers and officers
operating in Minnesota will hereaf-
ter be state game wardens. They
will be clothed with the proper au-
thorlty to make arrests and confisca
ton of game illegally taken.
In the Supetior National forest
nearly twenty forest rangers are en-
ployed and they will be sworn in at
once as state game wardens. No
salary will be paid them, but the
state will bear the expense Of their
bond and other costs due to any ar.
rests made.

ARMY OF HUNTERS.
War on Moose and Deer Now on in
Cook County.

The army of hunters that were
gathered on the streets here last
Monday morning made the place
look like mobilization camp. The
spectacle was enough to make the
humanitarian shuddes tor the poor
moose they were about to make war
upon. They are here from the East
and the West and the South, and
from various parts of our own state,
good hundred all told, and dressed
in their red uniforms and uncon~
cealed weapons of every kind and
description, they did really present
an awe-inspiri"g spectacle. The
number Of hunters gathered here
was the b'ggcs, ever, because on ac'
count Of the storm on Sunday, the
America did not stop at any of the
points along the shore, and over
twenty hunters who were to get off
at Tofte and Lutsen were carried to
Grand Mara's. Every available
team and automobile in the village
and outside of it was pressed into
service and every one Of them was
placed that evening at his selected
spot on the battle front. The ex-
tremely bad weather of yesterday
delayed the commencement of the
slaughter, and no news Of any kill
ing has yet arrived. The usual
number Of local hunters have also
gone to the front, and there are
more to follow. Over hundred
big game licenses have already been
issued in this county.

Fish Hatchery on Split Rock River.

The question of the location Of a
fish hatchery in Northeastern Mime
sofa, which has been under consider
alton for over two years, has taken a
new turn.
It will be remembered that at
former session of the Legislature one
thousand dollars was appropriated
for the purpose Of making invest1-
cations and securing site. At that
time there were a number of sites
under consideration, among them
being the mouth of Stewart River
French River, Knife River, and
the St. Louis River at Fond du Lac,
west OF Duluth.
Mr.. Avery, Of the Game and Fish
Commission, and Mr.. Codd, in charge
Of hatcheries, together with Dr..
Budd, formerly of Two Harbors,
and others held a meeting in Duluth
Commercial Club rooms, in Duluth,
recently and made a tentatiue selec-
ton of IL location on the Split Rock
River near Beaver Crossing. Two
committees were appointed, one to
make survey of the river and site.
and one to purchase or secure op.
tions on the necessary land.
The present plans contemplate a
preliminary set Of troughs and equip:
ment to try out the water for one
year, so that those interested in the
matter will have reliable data to
present to the Legislature at its next
session in January, 1917.

Without 1ntimating that any hun
ter in these parts would wilfully vio-
late the game law, yet the friends
of wild life can't help a feeling of
satisfaction that some arrangement
has been made, as is noted in an
other column, 20 protect game from
the ravages Of lawless hunting.
The head hunters those who kill
only for the head without Intending
to save the meat-are the ones who,
if some Of their own stories are to
be believed, invite the special atten-
tion Of game wardens. Last fall a
certain head hunter, being compli-
mented Oh fine specimen he took
pride in showing, boastfulIy stated
that he had to kill three bulls before
I getting head that suited him. He
may or may not have been truthful
in this statement, but the belief is
we'll fixed in the public mind, and
not without cause, that this thing
commonly happens. Such violations
when detected, should be treated
with no mercy at all.

Thanksgiving Day..

Following the established custom,
President Wilson, has by proclama-
ton designated Thursday, Nov.
25th, as Thanksgiving Day. The
essential paragraphs of this pro-
clamation are the following:
"It has long been the honored custom
of our people to turn in the fruitful au-
tumn of the year in praise and thanks
giving to Almighty God for His many
blessings and mercies to us as nation
The year that is now drawing to close
since we last observed our day of ma
| t1onal thanksgiving has been, while a
year of discipline because of the mighty
forces of war and of changes which have
disturbed the world. also year of spe-
cial blessing for us.
"Another year of peace has been
vouchsafed us; another year in which
not only to take thought Of our duty to
ourselves and to mankind, but also to
adjust ourselves to the many RESPONSE
bilities thrust upon us by war which
has involved the whole of Europe. We
have been able to assert our rights and
the rights of mankind without breach of
friendship with the great nations with
whom we have had to deal, and while
we have asserted rights, we have been
able to preforn duties and exercise pri-
vlleees of succor and helpfalness which
should serve to demonstrate our desire
to make the Offices Of friendship the
means Of truly disinterested and unset
fish SERVICE"

at Cchippewa village last Monday
afternoon. Her exact age cannot

was more than one hundred years
old. Her death was due to old age.
She has lived in this part of the
state the greatest part of her life,
and was surrounded at death by
many of her children, grandchildren
and great-grand-children. One son,
Alec, has been helpless invalid, a
victim of paralysis, for the greatest
part of his life, and was the only
inmate OF her household during
many of the last years Of her life.
MOther-love was never more beauti-
fully exempletied than by this old
woman's unfailing care of her bed
ridden son for more then a score of
years.
The funeral was to have been held

account of bad weather, and inter
ment will take place this morning
at the Catholic cemetary, with

evening and resulted in being one of the

general discussion over the impressions
received at our recent county fair, by
those in attendance, and the lessons to
be drawn from such continued county
fair" exhibitions and attendance in the
future, which proved exceedingly inter-
esting, and was a genuine "boost" fo1
Cook couney and the EAST End.' An
effort had been made to secure financial
encouragement and individual interest
in county fair endeavor by the securing
of members for the County Agricultural
Society, which resulted in the sending
IN to the Fair Secretary the names OF
four new members accompanied by {
dollar each. About dozen songs were
given by different ones present, anG
good will flowed freely. AS topic fo1
general discussion at the December
meeting it was voted to request eacL
one to give briefly his or her views on
what each believe would be the most
profitable kind of farming for Cook
county under existing conditions witt
possible improvements in methods. Il
was also voted to invite Secretary Clinct
to give lantern display and discourse
