Fish Fry Received for Lake
Traverse.

The car load of young fish for
Traverse lake promised by Fish
Commissioner Avery, arrived
last Friday. There we're 1876
cans in all, mostly crappies and
suntish, although there we're a
number of cans of other mixed
varieties. Game Warden Lind
quist was on hand with teams
engaged for the occasion and the
entire consignment was taken
to the lake and liberated at diff
erent points. Commencing at
S. l.. Downey's at this end of
the lake, then south to Abra-
hams, Spaford's, Dakomin's,
Terp;na's point and Benson's.
The fry we're of unusually large
size and should be large enough
to provide sport for the angler
within the next two years. 1t is
the intention of the commission
to furnish a supply of pike and
bass early next summer ard
another car load of mixed var
ieties next fall. The people of
this community feel duly grate-
full to Commissioner Avery for
the kindly interest he has mani
tested and the promptness with
which he responded to the re-
quest made by those who in
terested themselves in the plan
of restoring Traverse to it's for
mer prominence as a fish lake.

BODY FOUND
IN SLOUGH
Indian Diver Discovers Body
Of Limerick.

The search for the body of H.
A. limerick, the railroad fireman
who disappeared some is days ago
while on hunting trip near
Ortonville, Mimi, was concluded
with the finding of the BODY on
last Friday morning. An Indian
diver Fisherman John" and his
son have been searching the
sloughs in the vicinity for the past
two weeks as have a brother John
limerick and cousin, ]. E. Sulli-
van, both of Elyria, Ohio. The
relatives of the unfortunote man
left yesterday with the remains for
the home of the late deceased at
Elyria where burial will be made.
The young man left Ortonville
on October II and was expected to
return at the end of the week.
Searching parties were organized on
the following Monday and the cap

cap, coat and game bag containing
some ducks that had been bagged.
Since that day nothing was dis
covered until the body was found
Friday at the bottom of a slough
in nine feet OF water.
1t is supposed that the weight of
the shells and the boots that the
man had upon his person held him
to the bottom until death came
On October. Sth, H. A. Emrick
went TO Clinton i'll the morning,
and from there went alone to the
Lon Island lakes for days hunt.
When he did not report for his

at once. He was traced to the
lakes and was seen Friday evening
by the Gjengdahls i'll a boat OH the
lake just east of their house. The
next morning the boat was seen
drifting OH the lake but nothing
was thought of it until Tuesday,
when they learned that Emrick
had disappeared, and was probably
the man who had used the boat.
On Wednesday following hand
kerchief bearing his initials, pair
of shoes, pair of gloves, and his
game bag containing several ducks
and some shells were found hang
ing on fence near the lake, and
his hat was found floating in the
water. Seaching parties have used

Jail Delivery at Vcblen.

A party known as Perry, who
had been lodged in the city bas-
tile to await trial, received
enough outside assistance to en-
able him to make his get away
Sunday night.
He had been empounded by
Geo. Aldrich who was acting as
City Marshall in the absence of
G. S. Denny. Aldrich had look
ed in at ten O'Clock and found
things secure, but when he made
his next visit at twelve, the bird
had flown.
The heavy lock on the cell
door had been twisted off by
someone outside who doubtless
used a heavy bar for the pur-
pose.
Perry was apprehended on a
bootlegging charge, and sutfi-
cient evidence had been gathered
to insure his abstinance from
the buriness for some time had
the case came to trial.
The authorities are after the
blind piggers and business along
this line is exceedingly risky
now as in the past. -Veblen Ad-
