Hunting Laws Broken By
Local and Visiting Men.

Game warden II. j. Oberholtzer
and Peter Diedrich, conservation
warden for the hunting season,
reported a number of cases pro-
secuted by them of law breaking
among hunters. The following
have received their sentences: G.
f. Bruner of Milwaukee paid $50,
and costs at Judge H. L. REEVES
court of Rhinelander for buying
a deer. The seller of this deer,
James Congleton of Clearwater
was fined by Judge Finn Lawler
of Eagle River, municipal Judge
in place of Judge Higgins, $50.
and costs. A young man from
Indiana was found hunting with
out a license. He was fined $50
and costs. II. p. Hansen, Clear
water lake was fined $50. and
costs by Judge Lawler for hav-
ing muskrat skins in his posses
sion during the closed season.
The date of this offence was Oct
10Th.
Several others cases are being
prepared by these wardens fol-
various offences.
Several fawns taken from men
who have little respect for law
and who must have little of the
true sporting instinct are IN
charge of the wardens.
Wardens 0berholtzer and Died
rich are heartily in favor of the
five-day no-gun period before the
opening of the hunting season
and say the experience of finding
no deer shot before the opening
date as a proof.

Guernsey Lead Unchallenged

Wisconsin's claim to leadership
in the production of Guernsey
cattle remains unchallenged. For
years the Badger state has had
more Guernsey herds and more
Guernsey cattle than any other
state in the Union. Officials OF
the University of Wisconsin have
just been advised by the secretary
of the American Guernsey Cattle
club that eight leading Guernsey
states, listed in the order of their
numerical Importance are: Wis
consin, New York, Pennsylvania,
Ohio, Minnesota, Michigan, Massa-
chusetts and Vermont.
A better appreciation of Wis
consin's leadership is gained when
one appreciates there are more
Guernsey cattle in Wisconsin to
day than there are in the Isle
of Guernsey on which the breed
originated.-Reedsburg Times.

DR.. j. Frankel entertained the
teachers of the local schools and
a few other guests totalling fiji
teen participants, last Saturday
evening. The party was called
a children's party. Each guest
came dressed as a child. The
transformation by means OF
masks was so complete in some
cases that mistakes were made in
identifying one another. The
games played were children
games. ring-around-the-rosy, PIN
ming the tail to the donkey, etc

An Appeal For Help.

Ii has been the privilege of the
writer to help with clothing, gro
ceries and money in cases of power
ty in the vicinity of Eagle River
and Three Lakes. Scores of bar
rels and boxes of used clothing
have gone through the hands OF
Mrs. Davies and mine in our min
istry of four and a half years
in this parish. All have received
alike without respect of creed or
nationality believing this to be
a real christian work. The WIN
ter has brought to notice more
families in need than we antlci-
pated and while clothing OF some
kinds have been sent to us we
are very short of underwear for
men. women and children. Have
you any to spare?
Money placed at my disposal
by tourists for helping distres-
sing cases has been used up. To
replenish this fund benefit
show will be given soon at the
Opera House. A high class NOV
ING picture will be given at little
more than ordinary prices. Watch
for the announcement of the date.
Mr.. Renk is donating the use
of the hall for this benefit. 1t
will be to the credit of Eagle
River to pack the house for this
charity movie
Respectfully,
VIM. j. Davies.

Father Bolger Passes Away.

Word reached here this after
noon of the death of Rev. Father
z. Bolger at st. Josephs, Mis-
souri,, at 5 o'clock this morning.
Father Bolger was well known
here having made his home at
Minocqua for many years His
last visit to this city was about
one or two months ago. HIS
death was due to blood poisoning
which had its origin in an attack
of carbuncles from which he was
suffering at the time of his visit
here.
He was very popular in this
vicinity and following his loca-
ton in Missouri became one OF
the best known and most highly
respected clergemen in that part
of the country. No information
is at present obtainable as to the
funeral and final disposition OF
the Observation-Disclosures Daily

STATE BANK TRANSFER
The Ellis and STANCE Inter-
ests Buy the State Bank of
Eagle River.

State bank transferred -; q! y
What has been rumored for
some time as likely actually took
place Monday when Z. w. Ellis
of Eagle River and A. H. STANCE
of Merrill. Wis. bought the con-
trolling power of the State Bank
of Eagle River commonly known
as "McKenzie's Bank" The new
owners expect to reorganize and
apply for a character to act as
The First National Bank of Eagle
River. This charter will come
through the Treasury Depart
ment at Washington. The capital
of the new bank is placed at
$4,000. and the surplus at $1,000.
When the new organization is
completed a small amount of
stock will be offered for sale.
The foregoing item is of great
interest to the people of Eagle
River. AS they. look back over
the years since eighteen hundred
and ninty-one they will recall
that during the thirty years the
bank never failed to open it's
doors for business except on legal
holidays. During severe panics
when banks all over the country
failed to meet their demands the
Mckenzie bank never failed to
cash a check.
The Mckenzie bank was one of
the first in the northern region
IF Wisconsin and the only one
in many towns. Mr.. Arthur Nc
Kenzie the founder and organ
izer came to Eagle River in 1891.
Mr.. Morey came with Mr.. Nc
Kenzie and has been identified
with the bank every since.

Station and Garages Looted.

On Friday evening of last week
robbers entered the Chicago and
Northwestern station and made
away with about $50. Entrance
was gained throgh a rear window
and money obtained by a secret
device which the agent believed
none but he knew. Evidently
some have had free access to the
inner office of the station who
has made use of their wits to get
the measly sum of $50. Perhaps
these parties paid for their tick
cts to get out of town out of
this money.
Perhaps also the same parties
borrowed a car without asking
for it and breaking a lock to OBJ
tain it and then took about a six
ty mile drive to a dance and land
ed the car back by the Farmers
and Merchants bank where the
sheriff located it.

Thanksgiving
By James WhitcOmb Riley


Let be thankfuI-nOt only because
Since last universal thanks told
We have grown greater in the worlds applause,
And fortunes newer surpass the old
But thankful for all things that come aims
From out the open hand of Providence,
The winter clouds and storms-the summer cams-
The sleepless dread-the browse of Incidence.
Let us be thankful-thankful for the prayers
Whose gracious answers were long, long delayed,
That they might fall upon unawares,
And bless us, in greater need We prayed.
Let us be thankful for the loyal hand
That love held out in welcome to our own,
When love, and only love, could understand
The need of touches we had known
Let us be thankful for the longing eyes
That gave their secret to they wept,
Yet i'm return found, with sweet surprise,
Loves touch upon their lids, and, smiling, slept.
And let us, too be thankful that the tears
OF sorrow have not all been drained away,
That through them STILL for all the coming years,
We may look the dead face of today.
