Foreman Bryan handed Judge

buzz of an electric fan, the room
was in silence.

gentlemen that it feels this report cx-
presses the truth about the grand
Jury and it thanks you for your SER

Big Fish Season June |.

Many fishermen and cutters are
probably of the opinion that the
season for fishing mnskellunge and
pike opens on Decoration Day, May

many years. They better get wise
to the game laws, however, for
the conservation commission has
ruled that the season does not
open until June /.
For many years the big fish sea.
son, except bass, opened on Decora,
ton Day and many people took
advantage of the holiday and made
their initial trips to the lakes on
that day. In 1870 the season was
changed by act of the legislature
so that the season now opens on
June /. Those who have been in
the habit Of trying their skill at
catching muskies and pike on Dec
oration Day are thus deprived of
the opportunity. The season for
catching bass opens on July /.

Teachers Retirement Fund.

Theteachers' retirement fund law
may be referred to the people of
the state on a referendum, says a
Madison dispatch.
The joint finance committee has
decided to report the measure out
of the committee for passage. 1t
is probable that when the bill
reaches the senate that an amend
ment may be offered to finance it
by means of sur tax. There are
others who declare that the measure
is of such Importance to the state
that referendum may be attached.
The bill has been drafted and re-
commended by special legislative
committee which investigated the
subject and most of the teachers of
the state seem to be back of the bill.

HURLEY NINE WINS FIRST
HOME GAME OF SEASON
IrOnwood Quality Shop Team Defeated
by 6 to 5 Score. Bessemer
Here Tomorrow.

Hurley won the first game of the
season on the home diamond by
taking the Quality Shop nine of
Ironwood into camp last Sunday
by the score of 6 to 5. A fair-sized
crowd was in attendance.
Both teams presented patched
up lineups and many changes in
positions were made during the
game, which was replete with ex
citement but from the point of good
baseball fell little short. Numer-
ous errors graced the score sheets
when it was all over, both sides
contributing its share.
Ironwood's S third baseman, Bon
azza, scored the feature of the game
when he lined out a three bagger
with the bases full in the eighth
inning and cleaned the bags. The
rally threatened to put the skids
under Hurley, but as the visitors
had but one run TO their credit up
to this inning the four runs in the
eighth brought their total to but
FIVE, one run short of tie.
Lubi and Schwab divided the
pitching honors for Hurley. Iron
wood gathered in seven hits, FIVE
of which came with Lubi in the
box and two when Schwab served
'em. Ironwood used two beavers,
Wennersten and SEVERN. Hurley
hit the ball for II safe ones.
In their first time up Hurley
scored one when Secor lead off with
a hit, stole second and scored on
an error. Hurley scored another
in the fourth and i'll the fifth added
three more on four hits. In the
seventh Faul singled, stole second
and scored on Schwab's single,
bringing Hurley's total score up to
six.
