Anxious Anglers will be
Forced to Await May Is
governor Preus Signs Bill POstpOn-
q ing Opening of Fishing Season
Limit of Days Catch Set.

! Anglers O minnesota will not be
able to commence fishing on May 1
this year and hereafter. The season
will not open until May Is Gov. J. A.
o. Preus having signed the bill
passed by the legislature setting date
Is days ahead.
This applies to pike pickerel, crop
pies, sand pike or suckers, muskal-
longe perch, sunfsh and rock bass
The number which may be taken
in one day is: Uike, Is; pickerel, 25;
croppies, 20. muskollonge, 5; sunfish,
and rock bass, 25; perch, unlimited.
Many anglers claim setting ahead
of the opening date will not make
much difference in northern Mime
sofa, because the water is generally
too cold early in May for good fish
ing. .ss-
The idea of adding two weeks to
the closed fishing season is to permit
fish to complete their spawning, and
also keeping them from being exter-
minated.

Village of ROyalton
Has Bad Fire Monday
Store Building and Stock DESTROYED
Entailing Loss of from $4,000
to $4,000.

Famed by strong west wind, fire
Monday destroyed the farm building
occupied by the Thomas CARRIER Store
and entailing a loss estimated from
$4,000 to $4,000 at Royalton.
Desperate efforts of the Royalton
volunteer fire department curbed the
flames and prevented destruction of
the Graham Brick Block, occupied by
two stores and number of profess
sional offices. H
Little Falls was called upon to send
help, but as only chemical engines
were available. it was decided assis-
itance from that city would not be
needed.
CARRIER declared the fire started
when stove pipe fell while he was
absent from the building at 7 a. m.
When he returned, the room was in
flames.
The building is owned by Mrs. B.
Graham and her loss is covered parti-
ally by $500 insurance. CARRIERS
insurance on his stock of goods is
$1,000.

Delbert Smith Arrested
at Salt Lake City, Utah
Grey Eagle Young Man Brought Back
to st. Paul to Face Murder and
Robbery Charge

Delbert Smith, former Grey Eagle
boy, who robbed the mail train on
the Northern Pacific road and killed
a mail clerk near st. Cloud on Feb.
Is, will arrive in St. Paul this week
from Salt Lake City where he was
placed under arrest by the st. Paul
postal inspectors last Wednesday.
Ever since his arrest, young Smith
has been kept under heavy guard
to prevent his committing suicide as
per his threat on the day of his ar
rest.
Shortly after being taken into GUS
tody, Smith made a confession of
his guilt in the st. Cloud matter, and
expressed relief that he had finally
been apprehended because of the
mental strain under which he had
been laboring since his crime.
When placed under arrest in the
post office in Salt Lake City, Smith
was fiat broke. He was in the act of
writing to woman in Superior, Wis,
for funds, one of the three women
with whom he had planted" the
money secured when he committed
the robbery.
Because of his confession, special
call has been sent out for Federal
Court at St. Paul, and he will be
placed on trial as soon as he arrives
there. Because of his crime, there is
little doubt but that his sentence will
be for life in the state penetentiary
at Saltwater.
When approached by the postal
inspectors at Salt Lake City, who
covered him with their guns, Smith
broke down under the strain under
which he has been laboring and sur
rendered to the authorities with the
exclamation, "My God, I'll give up. T"
He waived extradition papers.
Delbert Smith is the son of Mr..

Field of Local Sport

Big Paul Domke, Sank Centres
wrestling favorite, is making great
strides in his preparation to meet
Jack Milo, Greek middleweight cham
pion, in the finish bout to be held at
the armory on Thursday, April 7th.
Paul was not exactly in trim when
the two met here three weeks ago,
but he is spending his evenings
throwing around few of the heavy
weights and has succeeded in taking
off a few unnecessary pounds of ex-
ira weight.
When Domke stripped down in the
gym for training Monday night he
weighed 100 pounds.
On Monday, L. H. Johnson, the st.
Cloud wrestler, who has met Domke
on several occasions, arrived in Sank
Centre to take over the training of
the Sank Centre man for his next
match with Milo. Johnson is a pro-
fessional wrestler who has been bat
Ting around st. Cloud, and he began
Monday night to give Paul the first
real workouts he has had since the
night of the bout.
Johnson weighs $50 pounds and is
a tough bird. He has never been
able to throw Domke in a regular
bout, but his presence in Sank Cen
tire insures local fans that their man
Domke will be given the best of
training and handling during the re-
naming period before the match.
Jack Milo, on the other hand, is not
sleeping on the job. Milo wrote a
friend this week that he twas going
to win from Domke if nothing ser
ious happened to him."
Milo has picked out a number of
wrestlers to aid him in preparing for
this bout,

Grey Eagle. He was brought up in
that village, and made his home there
until about three years ago when his
parents moved to the northern part
of the state.
In Grey Eagle, Smith had some
thing of reputation as a "bad
actor" although his conduct was new
er of vicious nature.
Speaking of the death of the mail
he "was sorry Observation-Disclosures
clerk whom he shot, Smith said, 81
was sorry when I read of the clerks
death. I did not mean to kill him"

and demonstrates that the chief fun

TRIP TO CAPITAL
 IN QUICK TIME
Sheriff Thornton Delivered Bunch of Convicts to Penitentiary in 12 Hours Despite Breakdown Delay-Ap-
 preciated the Ride.

Sheriff J. A. Thornton has estab- lished record for motor truck travel between Mena and Little Rock that will be a mark for other truck drivers to shoot at. The sheriff and party made the 150 mile trip in IF hours, which is some travelling considering the kind of roads there are in spots between Polk county and the state capital.
 Sheriff Thornton left Tuesday morn ing in one of the county's trucks with a cargo of prisoners for the walls at Little Rock. John Martin drove the truck. An accident at Womble caused delay of two hours and from then until the journey was completed the travellers had smooth sailing. The state penitentiary was reached at 6 a. m. Tuesday and the half dozen prisoners turned over to the officials. Returning the Polk county officer left the capital at Little Rock at 10:30 Wednesday morning and reached Mena at 10:30 that night. The return trip was made without in- eident. Sheriff Thornton caught a cold from facing the stiff cold wind during the two days ride and John Martin. who did the driving, had a

directs the operation of the shingle mill. J. P. Kelly of Joplin, is direct ing the work of erecting the mill building and installing the machinery. A crew of eight men live in the com pany's boarding house, which is in charge of Mir. and Mrs. Jesse Sutton of Mena
 The activity of the Cooper company in getting the mill built is for the purpose of handling the ores that come from a 200 foot vein of high grade manganese, which is known to also contain some copper and gold. Three steam drills and an air com pressor jack hammer drill are all ready on the grounds ready to go to work when needed on the big mineral vein.
 It is hoped to have the mill in shape to begin producing manganese in commercial form within ninety days. Manager w. E. Bailey, who has been untiring in his efforts to develop the company's property, states there IS a good market for all the manganese that can be produced at the steel mills of South Chicago, Birmingham or. at Philadelphia. There is also a market !, for manganese for chemical purposes at Denver. In addition to these markets for manganese Manager Bailey has only recently discovered that there is con siderable bog manganese on the Cooper Company's property. This form of the mineral is in demand at the big brick plants at St. Louis, where it is used in making a fancy grade of brick used principally in fin | ishing the fronts of big buildings. This form of manganese is quoted as i being worth $42.50 ton f. 0. b. Mena. The company expects to be market | ing in the near future.
 The Cooper Company is financed largely by Texas residents of the city of that name. To date the company has spent almost $25, 1000 in developing it's holdings in the Mena field.
