Poison Gas to Fight Squirrels.

Experiments in the use of poison gas in exterminating grain-eating ground squirrels are under way, according to report of the county horticultural eom- mission to the Los Angeles board Of supervisors.
 At the same time it was announced that Los Angeles county has sold it's surplus stock Of saccharine and strych- nine to Orange county in order that the neighboring county can join in the campaign being waged against the Ge- struetiye ground squirrels.
 According to Horticultural Commis- sioner Ryan, the use of poison gas is necessary at this time because the squirrels. which have been practically eliminated from the worst affected re gions in the county by the use of poi. sons during the past few months, fail to cat the poison at this time, pre- ferring the new vegetable growth.

London Cats Victims of Plague.

The outbreak of a disease. which has many symptoms to influenza, is causing the death of cats by the hun dred in London.
 The disease is not thought to be communicable to human beings, but distinguished surgeons are unable to confirm the exact nature. 1t spreads with amazing rapidity, and the symp- toms are said to resemble closely that of poisoning, except that death usu- ally takes place within two days.

A COMMUNITY DANCE
Guides at Bents Resort on
Lake Mamie to Give Ben
eft Hop Saturday Night.

Owing to there having been a
mixup in dates in the town oil
State Line last week, the dance
advertised by the guides of
Bent's Camp in the town hall
last Saturday evening, was put
over until this coming Saturday.
Seems as though the baseball
fans OF State Line had the hall
engaged for a dance the same
evening as the guides, and the
latter withdrew.
The dance last Saturday was
for the benefit of the new ball
team in that village and Curtis
camps and the one to be held
this week Saturday is tor the
benefit of the Ladies Aid society
there, who are raising funds tor
a community house near Black

BROWNIE RAMS A FORD
Ford and Marmon Come To-
gether Near Minocqua-
Ford Put Out of Commits
sion.

According to the Minocqua
Times of last week, Brownie, the
representative of the Milwaukee
Journal who is making a road
tour of the Wisconsin highway
system in his big Marmon, col
lided with a Ford car over near
that village and the result is
that the flivver is in the hospital.
Brownie and companion were
at Eagle River the first of last
week leaving here for Minocqua
and points across the state.
Brownie drives a Marmon and
is said to push the gas lever
pretty wide sometimes and make
the speed limit of thirty per"
look like a bean on a hot skillet.
However, even if no one was to
to blame. he collided with a
Ford driven by a couple fellows
from near Minocqua, aud the
flivver suffered fatalities.
The state law admits of thirty
miles over her highways, but as
accidents happen more frequent
upon short snappy turns in the
roads, there is only one remedy
for this, and that is either cut
out the curves or else pest speed
cops where the danger is
greatest.
