LAW STRICT ON
NUMBER OF FISH
POSSESSION
Cannot Have Over One Days Bag
Limit at Any Time.
{By United Press Association

SBy United Press Associations
Madison, Wis, July Sit is against
the law to carry more than the bag
limit of fish at any time, according
to an opinion recently given District
Attorney Ray J. Haggerty of Price
county, by Attorney General Walter
C. Owen.
The attorney general reversed a
former opinion which he gave Hag-
gerty in which he stated that a fisher
man could carry as many fish as he
wished, as long as he could prove that
he did not catch them in one day.
The section Of the law under which
the attorney general gave his more re-
cent decision which makes it in vio-
lation of the law to carry more than
the bag limit Of fish (ffteen) reads:
Except as expressly provided, no
person shall have in his possession
or under his control, or have in stor-
age or retention or as a common car
rier, any wild animal or carcass
thereof during the closed season
therefor, or game fish or in excess of
the daily bag limit thereof for each
person at any time during the open
season, whether lawfully or unlaw-
fully taken within or without this
state"

DRINKS IN AUTO
INjURE THREE
From Mondays Daily.

FROM Mondays Dally.
The little village of Springville was
the scene of a dastardly act yesterday,
when three young men were deliber-
ately run down and badly injured by
three men under the influence of IL
quor in an automobile.
The three young men whose last
names are Leila, Benoskoski and Bon
lex, all of Plover, were standing at
the side of the road conversing when
the car, in which there were three
men badly under the influence of
liquor, was steered off the road and
directly at the three young men. The
car knocked them all down and ran
over each of them One of the young
men was thrown on the running board
of the car and the occupants of the
car deliberately dropped him off into
the road and went on. The injured
men were found shortly afterward by
people in another automobile.
Two of the boys were so badly in
jured they were taken to a hospital
in Stevens Point. One Of them was
still unconscious when they arrived
at the hospital.
The number of the car which ran
the young men down was secured. An
example should be made of these men,
The license should be taken from the
owner of the car and the three in the
car should be sentenced to a good term
in the penitentiary.

the untimely death from overwork of
his Big Chief, Edward H. Hartman,
President A. L. Mohler of the Union
Pacific and Oregon Short Line rail-
roads, today, in the prime of life, left
his official desk never to return. Cen
eral Manager Charles Ware did the
same thing.
Both men are in the midst of the
best years of their lives, around the
half century mark; and they present
the unusual spectacle of this age of
hustle and business right down to the
graves brink, of stopping before they
drop.
Mohler and Ware are in perfect
health and could have retained their
offices indefinitely.
Mohler will turn farmer in Colo
RADIO and Ware will travel around the
world awhile. Both men say thew
have not quit to sit down and die; that
they will keep their minds and bodies
active, but they'll do it just after the
manner they see fit.
Mr.. Mohler was born at Ephrata,
Pa, in 1850 and started as a freight
clerk at Gait, ILL.,, at 10. Ware, a ma
tive of Jonesboro, H., started as a
telegrapher for the Northwestern.

CITIZENS Will
TAKE CARE OF
SOLDIERS
FAMILIES

Madison, Wis, June 29.-One of
the most notable things in Connection
with the mobilization of the Wiscon-
sin National Guard is the manner in
which those left at home are being
taken care of through public move
ments.
In nearly every city in the state
which sent company to Camp Doug
las, following the call issued by Presi-
dent Wilson, organizations were form
ed Immediately to collect funds and
distribute them to the dependents.
The residents of Sheboygan had
scarcely heard that the troops would
be modified, before a committee was
appointed to start collecting money.
Their appeal met with instant re-
Spouse. Hundreds of dollars were
raised in La Crosse, Oshkosh, Mil
waukee and other cities to distribute
among the families who were left
without support when the guard was
called out.
The day the troops left Beloit, citi-
zens of that city raised more than
$500 and gave it to the men to be
spent in purchasing magazines, food
and other extras" Besides this,
plans were made to take care Of the
families of the men.
Several relief organizations were
formed in Milwaukee before the 600
troops left that city. After a few
days, however, they merged their
efforts with the Merchants and Manu-
facturers' association.
