FISHING "FOR
SCIENTIFIC PURPOSES"
SEEMS LIKE BUNK
SEATTLE PARTY AND STATE
GAME WARDEN IN BAD IN KIT
TITAS COUNTY FOR FISHING
IN CLOSED LAKE.

The Ellensburg Record Wednesday
night had the following to say con
cerning the Lost Lake case which the
county game commission, backed by
the organized sportsmen of Kittitas
county, is now pressing:
"Billy Beers, county game warden,
has sworn out warrants for three
prominent Seattle men charging them
with fishing in lake that has been
closed. The men are Matt Ghormley,
auditor Of the Seattle Port Commits
sion, and formerly treasurer of King
county; DR.. w. F. Christensen, also
connected with the port commission,
and member of the state legislature,
and "John Doe" Hunter, also a prom
inent Seattle resident.
at is alleged that on or about Sep
tember 6 the three men, bearing a
permit from State Game Warden L.
II. Darwin allowing them to fish in
Lost Lake "for scientific purposes"
carried away with them trout in three
large fish baskets, suit cases, flour
sacks and even filled their coffee pot
with fish. The lake was closed sever
al years ago when a large number of
trout fry were planted from the Kit
titas county hatchery. Before then il
was barren, and now it is full of fish
Many a local fisherman has longed t.
cast fly into its waters.
"The men were stopped by Deputy
Warden Riggs, after he had watched
the trio make extensive catches from
the lake. They laughed in his face
however, showing him Mr.. Darwin
permit. Riggs stated that he was
told the fishing was so good that they
were under obligations to bring out q
mess for the states chief game offic-
ial. They evidently did, it is alleged
and brought out enough to feed a vii
lage.
>"Several sportsmen from Renton
hove in sight, bound for Mirror Lake
beyond They were wrathy and also
undertook as special deputies to ar
rest the Seattle scientific party but
were shown the Darwin permit They
were urged to get in and fish, Riggs
stated, being assured that no harm
would come to them
"Lost Lake is about mile long
and half mile wide, located near the
c. M. e. st. Paul railway in the Cas-
cades."

DAVE BURGfTT
HOLD-UP VICTIM
TUESDAY EVENING
GUNMAN GETS ABOUT SIPS FOR
HIS TROUBLE AND MUST BE
MAD AS A HORNET. NOBODY
HURT.

Tuesday evening at about $50 as
Dave Burgett was going home to his
supper he was held up near the Moon
bridge by a gunman and relieved of
al the money (about $1.25) that he
had on his person at the time.
Mr.. Burgett says that as he walked
along he met someone but in the
darkness he was unable to give any
description of him. Just as they were
passing, the man commanded him to
put up his hands. Burgett glanced at
the fellow and saw he had some
thing, which looked like a stick, in
his hand and he thought that some
enc of his acquaintance was joking
him, and he started to move on. The
fellow then told him emphatically to
stop and put up his hands or he
would shoot and Mr.. Burgett did so.
He was then commanded to turn
around and he turned with his back
to the gunman, who placed the gun
against his back and went through
his pockets, taking one dollar-bill
and couple dimes and nickcls, and
Burgett was then allowed to go on his
way. The burglar evidently thought
he was getting something worth
while when he found the dollar bill,
but Burgett imagines that he was
madder than hornet when he found
Is was only one dollar.
Mr.. Burgett says that when he was
commanded the second time to put up
his hands he was at such an angle
that street light reflected from the
article which the holdup had in his
hand and he presumed without further
debate it was gun, and thought it
time to comply with the request.
When he got home Burgett phoned
Officer Pratt, but as he could give no
certain description of the holdup
there was no chance to apprehend
him.

JIMMY WASN'T LOST:

Jimmy Miller. Cashmere POOlrO0m
Man. Out Hunting and Disappear

Jimmy Miller, former Leavenworth

in that his camp got lost and he fail

He and Connors were out hunting
Saturday above Lake Chelan and in
the snowstorm they became separat-
ed. Connors returned to camp and as
Miller did not show up he went out
and looked for him, without success
however, and he summoned help.
Tuesday Miller walked into camp and
asked what the row was all about. He
contends that he was not lost, which
his friends all take with allowances.
Just the same they are all glad to
know that he is safe at home and not
buried in the snow at the foot of some

n. B. DAYS CAR
GOES OVER ON THE
P[SHAST|N CREEK HILL
DAY WAS CAUGHT UNDER THE
BODY BUT HE AND FOUR
OTHER PASSENGERS ESCAP-
ED SERIOUS INJURY.

Last Saturday morning while N. B
Day was enroute to Wenatchee with
Attorneys Lindley and Howe and
Mesdames Fromme and Mutrie, his
auto rolled over on the Peshastin
Creek hill and he and Attorney Howe
were both pinned down under the
body. Attorney Lindley jumped when
the ear turned turtle and was
nearly free of the car when it stop
red bottomside up. The ladies were
10th under the tonneau but were
able to get a door open and crawl
cut. Mr.. Days head and shoulders
were outside the body of the car,
which rested upon his chest and quick
work was necessary to relieve him,
sc Mr. Lindley set up shout and a
man came to his help from the Burk-
hart place on the hill. Together they
were able only to raise the car enough
to ease it off Mr. Days chest, but
men working on the new bridge over
the creek at that place soon came and
Mr.. Day was gotten out. Mr.. Howe
had all this time been under the car
and as he said nothing it was thought
that he was seriously injured, or at
least knocked out. But he was res
cued, though with one arm numbed
from being held for nearly half an
hour under some part of the car
Fortunately, however, no one was
seriously injured.
Mr.. Day had not thought it neccs-
sary to put on his wheel chains be-
fore starting, though there was some
snow on the ground and it was still
showing. However all went we'll and
when he reached the hill and was
about to start down he turned off the
spark. The car was coasting down
the hill but suddenly skdded, the
front wheels going into the soft eartf
beside the road and the rear turning
until the car was at right angle tc
the road, when it turned over anc
stopped with the wheels in the air
1t was soon righted up and was driv,
en- into the Burkhart yard under it's
own power. The windshield and toI
were wrecked.
Attorneys Lindley and Howe went
on to Wenatchee with Dr. Cox who
happened along, and the others re-
turned home.

SEAL SALE TO
COMBAT TUBERCULOSIS

The organization for tie selling
campaign of seals to raise funds with
which to combat tuberculosis, is on in
this district, and Mrs. Frark Reeves
and Mrs. Bert Scheble, both of Wen
atchee, were in town Tuesday to get
matters under way in this vicinity.
Mrs. Reeves is the eXccutivo for eight
counties in this section of the state
ard Mrs. Scheble for Chelan county.
The ladies are both earnest workers
and success should crown their eff
forts.
This work was formerly carried on
by the Red Cross, but we understand
that this haa~tccn 'urned over to the
organization or branch which is in
charge Of the campaign to control tu-
berculoss. Sixty per cent of the
funds raised remains in the county in
which raised, thirty per cent goes in
to the state fund of the organization
and ten per cent into the national
fund, therefore ninety per cent STAYS
within the state, and is used wisely
for the benefit Of all the people of the
state, for in lessening the spread Of
the dread disease everyone is benc-
fitted.
The cause is worthv one and
everyone should buy a quantity of the
stamps and have share - thi5 good
work.
