decision is very satisfactory to those
| interested.
The department just before noon on
Thursday received a telephone mes
sage from Belgrade saying that a
live beaver had made it's appearance
in the yard at Vernon Braggs place,
the Herman Adams farm, about half
way between Belgrade Depot and
North Belgrade. 1t showed no sign
of being injured in any way and its
presence there cannot be accounted
for.
Warden Jesse Alexander was in that
vicinity and was instructed by the
department to get the beaver and
bring it to Augusta, where it will be
properly Grated and sent to Hancock
! county, where it is desired by the
residents to stock some lands with
beaver. This crate will require wire
inside lining, for Brer Beaver is very
apt not to remain long in confinement
| in nothing but a wooden box.
Reports received by the Depart
ment of Inland Fisheries and Game
from the wardens tell of the follow
| ing cases of violation of the fish and

waters of this State.
Special Warden Alonzo S. Colson
reports the payment of fine of $40
and costs taxed at $3.50 by Mike
Ketchuck, an alien. for fishing with
cut an aliens license in Township 4,
Range in Washington county.
Edward P. King of Skowhegan,
who has been a deputy warden for
/ the past eight years. has been ap-
pointed chief warden for Somerset,

Mr.. King is well known in this Sec
ton, having back in 1888 been a
member of the snappy Augusta Base
ball nine. a time when the indepen-
dent teams of Maine were about as
strong as the New England class.
He was born in 1861 in Sabattus, the
family moving to Lewiston when he
was but an infant. He attended the
! Lewiston schools and like other lads
! learned the great American game Of
| baseball When about II years of
age he was engaged to play with the
famous Skowhegan Reds. fast
team, and he did fine work there,
! first as a pitcher and later as
catcher. He followed baseball for
the next 10 years. playing on the
several Skowhegan mines, with the
exception of 1883 when he was with
the Augusta nine and one year with
the st. John, n. B., team.
Mr.. King 90 years ago married
Miss Nary Donohue of Skowhegan.
They have one daughter Miss Mar
earot King. who graduated in 1917
| frCm the Skowhegan High school and
