SUMMER RESORTS BEING
RE-FIXED
Many New Cottages viii be Erected
To Take Care of Tourists During
the Coming Summer

Many summer resort keepers in
northern Wisconsin are rushing the
construction of additional cottages on
their property in an effort to have
them prepared for an unusually big
rush of tourists during the coming
season.
The northern lakes were very pop
ular last year, and it is predicted that
this year will be a record breaker.
Around Rhinelander, Herbert Warner,
a pioneer resorter, and Ernest Alton
are erecting several cottages on their
grounds and there are also many pri-
vate summer homes, log and frame,
being built for occupancy during the
hot season.
At Mercer, at the Jerome Fishing
& Hunting Club and at Pine Island,
big preparations are under way for
one of the largest fishing seasons
since the beginning of the war. The
modern improvement will be added
to the Jerome institution and when
completed it will be one of the finest
equipped summer resorts in that
region.-Merrill Herald.

|MAYFLOWER LAKE FISH
Water Near Shore of Lake Covered
With Numberless Dead Fish.
No Reason Found

With the opening up of Mayf1ower
Lake this spring it was discovered
that apparently it had lost almost, if
not all, of its fish during the winter,
the edges of the lake being literally
covered with all species of fish. No
cause can be found, except suffocation
or an epidemic.
The lower end of the lake, near the
road, is covered with dead roach or
sunfish, while the entire north shore
few bass. On the opposite side, near
frogs, crabs and minnows covering
the bottom near the shore.
Unusually large pickerel were picked
up by various persons, the largest is
said to have weighed fully thirty
pounds. Apparently all life is extinct
with the possible exception of the
bass, of which but very few were
found. Fishermen who have seen the
catastrophe are surprised at the num-
ber of pickerel the lake contained,
and also the size. as the pickerel were
planted but comparatively few years
Iago
Game Warden Mackenzie came
down from Amigo yesterday and in
vestigated the possible causes. He
thought the reason to be the severe
winter causing suffocation. That,
however, would not account for the
death of the frogs and crabs.
A letter was written Sunday by
D. W. Van Doren to the Superinten-
dent of Fisheries at Madison, asking
for an explanation.
The loss of Mayfower Lake as a
fishing ground is to be greatly regret
ted, as it afforded an excellent and
nearby place to spend a few hours oc-
lcasionally in quest of the finny tribe
1t will require a number of years to
replenish the lake and efforts should
be put forth to do so at once.-rBirnam-

Echoes From the Election
At Amigo Benishek was reelected
over Hanset by votes. A B. Good
rick was elected Municipal judge over
George Latta.
The city of Princeton which was
organized two weeks previous to the
al ifc, oln
tion on Tuesday, electing Erich Muel-
Ter, mayor.
J. N. Welsby was elected mayor of
Stevens Point over James Mainland
Judge Park was reelected circuit
judge.
Madison voted down municipal own
ership.
At Mosinee W. A. Won Berg was
elected Village President over A. G.
Kernin by an overwhelming majority.
Geo. G.. Campbell was elected mayor
of Marshfield over r. Connor by
vote of 681 to 643.
Daniel Hoan, socialist, was rejected
mayor of Milwaukee. The balance of
the ticket was in favor of the non
partisans. The city council, treasur-
er, comptroller and circuit judge were
elected by the non-partisans.
The La Toilette delegates defeated
the delegate ticket headed by Gov.
Philip. The Milwaukee Journal is of
the opinion that this will retire Gov
Philip and senator Lenroot from pub
lie life.
That the La Toilette candidates for
delegates at large to the republican
national convention at Chicago have
won a sweeping victory over the Gov.
Phillip slate is indicated by the latest
figures from over the state.
Only two of Philips candidates are
elected and the La Toilette victory
means that his forces will name the
national committeeman for Wisconsin.
The La Toilette landslide extended
even to Gov. Philips home county,
Milwaukee. With only a few pre-
cincts missing, James Thompson of
La Crosse, leading the La Toilette
ticket, polled 22,4O7 votes to Philips
1889.
La Toilette candidates also carried
Superior, home of Senator Lenroot,
for the presidential nomination. -
Politicians conclude from the re-
suit of the primary that Mr.. Thomp-
son will receive the Republican nomi-
nation for senator in September and
whoever will be the La Toilette can
didate will be nominated for governor.

COMMUNITY CHRISTMAS PLANS

A committee comprised of repres.
entative0 of the Lihue churches, Mo.
kihana Club, Y. w. c. A, Y. M. c. A.,
Welfare Workers, Public Schools
BOY Scouts and Lihue District at
large, met in the Mokihana club hall
last Saturday morning to discuss plans
for a Community Christmas celebra.
ton at the coming season.
Rev. Mr.. Bayless was elected chair
man, Mrs. e. S. Swan, vice-chairman
and Miss Madeline Soule, secretary.
1t was decided to hold community ex-
ercises with tree and other Christ
mas accessories in Lihue Armory on
Saturday, Christmas night, Dec. 25.
This is to be "everybody's Christ
mas" and it is expected that the COM
r1unity will all get back of the plan
..Id unite in the activities in true
Christmas spirit. Various sub b-com-
mittees from the general community
were appointed to care for details.
1t is the purpose to see that everybody
in the vicinity gets an invitation to
attend the festivities. Details and
further notices will be given to the
public as the time approaches.

COOKE PROMISES
WIRELESS PHONE

Mr.. r. l.. Cooke, Sup't. Of the
Mutual Telephone Companys wire
less department, was on Kauai Fri
day and Saturday. He made flying
trip to inspect the local wireless
station, conditions being such as not
to prolong his stay.
Mr.. Cooke says that IN the very
near future people on this island
will probably be holding conversat-
ions daily with friends or business
houses on any of the other islands,
and with people on ships at sea pro-
viding the ships are equipped with
radio telephone. Negotiations are
now under way for the purchase of
apparatus for the various islands,
and if delivery is not held up the
radio telephone system will be in op-
Grafton within three or four months.
In order TO get number on Oahu
it will merely be necessary - call
the local station on your house tele-
phone, and within a few minutes you
will have your party. The system
TO be installed will be tap" proof.
That is, without special apparatus
amateurs and other wireless stations
will not be able to overhear a conver.
sation, thereby making it reasonably
safe for commercial purposes.
This system will probably decrease
the number of telegramc sent from the
stations daily, but will by no means
do away with them entirely, and the
Mutual intends to use the same appa.
ratus for telegraphic communication
between the islands. This will
practically clear up the interference
now being experienced daily from the
high powered navy transmitters, and
from ships at sea, and various other
causes. and will in a great measure
expedite the transmission and recep-
tion Of telegams between islands.

LAST SUNDAYS
SOCCER GAMES
Lihue 2, Makaweli 1.

Lihue 2, Makaweli 1.
The soccer game between Maka.
we'll and Lihue at Eletle last Sunday
was a rather unsatisfactory exhibit
ion all round. Lihue was especially
off in their game; they played like
they had just got up from big luau,
and not before the latter part of the
last half did they come OUT o. their
trance. Makaweli was not much
better. They had every chance in
the world to put the game on ice in
the first half when they had the wind
in their favor but with the exception
of Carmichaels goal, secured from
free kick right in front of the posts,
they failed to score, though they had
the ball all but through several times.
Lihue broke all existing records for
kicking holes in the atmosphere.
They never had chance to score in
the first half, and even in the second
they did not score until seventeen
minutes of play had passed, when
Willie boosted the ball between the
posts during a scrimmage. Eight
minutes later Fernandez caused
sensation by shooting a goal from the
side lines near the center of the
field, distance of about fifty yards.
Chas. Fern refereed the game.
McBryde 1, Koloa O.
This game was played under rather
discouraging conditions. The inter
militant showers made the ground so
sloppy and the ball so slippery that
it was almost impossible to rlay at
all. The single goal made in this
game was shot in the last five min
utes Of play, and, like the Makaweli
goal, was made on free kick, right
in front of the goal. DR.. l.. c. Smith
acted as referee.
NEXT SUNDAYS GAMES
The games next Sunday will be
between Lihue and Kol1o at Lihue,
and Makaweli and McBryde at Eleele.
