Shown Apostle Islands.

A party of railroad officials,
members of the Wisconsin Conser-
walton commission and newspaper
men were shown the wonders Of
the Apostle Islands Sunday as
guests of the Apostle Islands In
dian Pageant corporation.
The party left Ashland in a
launch visited the various points of
interest among the islands, at Bay
field and Salmo and also tried their
hands at lake trout fishing. They
were accompanied by influential
Ashland business men.
Those in the party besides Ash
land men were: G. A. Cairnes, pas
senger traffic manager of the Chi
cago & Northwestern railroad; G.
r. Custer, general superintendent
of publicity Of the Northwestern;
G. H. McRae, general superinten-
dent of traffic of the Chicago, St.
Paul, Minneapolis and Omaha rail
way; E. G. Taylor, game and fish
editor Of the Chicago Daily News;
Elmer S. Hall, head of the Wiscon-
sin Conservation commission; B. 0.
Webster, in charge of the fisheries
department of the Conservation
commission; and G. L. Harrington,
in charge Of the forestry depart
ment of the commission.
1t is said that the party was
thoroughly impressed with the
wonders of the islands and it is be-
lieved that some good boosts" for
the coming Pageant will result.

HE is PICKING THEM UP
Traffic Cop is Causing Fear
to Fellows Who Dodge
License for Their Car.

Traffic officer Olmstead is caus-
ing license dodgers to set up with
a hurry, and the past week has re-
suited in his taking the names and
informing state authorities con-
corning auto owners who have
been driving with old licenses or
even going so far as to operate
their car without a plate of any
kind.
One fellow is said to have driven
his car for the past two or three
years without having purchased a
yearly license and several more
who lodged last year and so far
this, are upon the official state
carpet to explain why this has oc-
Cured. Some will get heavy fine
and others will not be allowed to
operate until they have made an
application.
Many cars are being operated up
on a 1924 license, but that is not
exactly their fault. The state has
been dilatory in sending them their
1925 plates and some have had their
money with the secretary of state
for a couple months. In this in
stance where the owner can show
he has sent for his license and the
state department holds him back,
then the officer is lenient; but to
the guys who have been beating
the state by not buying-they
ought to get it with a big fine, and
get it hard.

WANDERED IN WOODS
Star Lake Guide In Hospital
at Rhinelander; Slashed
Throat With Knife.

James Fox, guide who claims
lola, Wisconsin as his home, be-
came demented last week and dis
appeared in the woods north of
Star Lake, causing a posse Of
searchers to go out after him on
Thursday before being found.
Fox had been working around
some Of the resorts near Star
Lake and while guiding a party on
one of the lakes beached the boat
and took to the woods. His not re-
turning caused the party he was
guiding to notify the resorts near
there and a search begun after the
officials at Eagle River had been
notified to bring over men to assist
in the hunt.
Thursday evening he appeared at
Oliver Lodge at Star Lake with his
throat gashed and blood covering
his person. John Oliver immed-
lately drove him. to Minocqua for
medical attention, Fox later that
evening being taken to the Rhine
lander hospital. District Attorney
Radcliffe and Sheriff Bowker were
at Rhinelander Friday morning
and found Fox out of danger. Fox,
from what he told the district at
torney, had been hitting the moon
and when he beached the boat con-
tanning his fishing party on Thurs
day he simply lost his head" and
knew not what he was doing for
several hours. Then he drove to
Oliver Lodge and was taken care
of by Mr.. Oliver. While demented,
he had used a pocket knife, CASH
ing his throat badly.

To ROoSt blaine.

There is a chance now for the
conservationists of Wisconsin and
the fellows who wish to secure aid
from the state against the forest
fire menace; and that is to help
elect John J. Blaine to the senate
and thus get rid of him and his
veto powers on subjects vital to
this half of the state. Blaine is a
bad actor when it comes to loosen
UP on funds for fighting fire and
conservation of the states wild life.
He sure uses his vetoing powers
and that puts a crimp into all of
us. But if we can slide him out of
the governorship pronto, then we
possibly might get into Office some
good man like Judge Asa K. Owen
of Phillips, who we know will
treat US fairly and honestly and
place funds where they rightfully
belong.

PICNICKING IN VOGUE
Societies and Clubs Find
Pleasures in Spending Sun
days on Shores of Lakes.

A decided innovation this sum-
mer is the change from the old
form of visitation to that of the
newer method of party enjoyment.
Used to be that most every family
would hitch up themselves in a
select body and sneak off to some
lake or favored spot and enjoy a
Sundays outing; couldn't see where
they could tie up with a crowd and
have any kind of a time. They
have changed and others are
getting the habit of being friendly
and neighborly to the extreme.
Last Sunday this was fully exem-
plifed by the Knights of Pythias
organization at Crandon. With
thirty-odd cars Of Knights and
their families and a full compile
ment Of eatables, they passed
through Eagle River on their way
to Trout lake where they spent the
day on that magnificent lake. They
carried a full band and managed
to hesitate long enough in the vii
lage to serenade an old friend of
many Of the members, Finn Lawler.
A week ago some hundred twenty
men, women and children from
Watersmeet, Michigan, drove to
Black Oak lake and spent the Sab
bath at Black Oak resort picnick-
ing. This organization is better
known as the Mems Civic Club of
Watersmeet, and they and their
families gave this outing.
Take the circus the other even
ing; many families dubbed together
and attended in a body. Just for
the fun of the occasion and be able
to pass the buck on Old Man Jinx.
A day spent out on some of the
lakes with bunch of friends, or
sight seeing trip with the bunch
makes for a spledid outing and a
closer feeling for your fellow
beings.

ination of the woman at the state
hospital at Farwell's Point Satur-
day. X-ray photographs were taken.
The absence of shadows which are
present after the fourth month are
contradictory to Mrs. Sigler's claim
that she expects to become a
mother about July l.

Uncle Tom in Tents.

Uncle Toms Cabin, in tents, will
show tonight at the fair grounds.
Years and years ago the most pop
ular legitimate plays were Uncle
Toms Cabin, East Lynn, Ten
Nights in a Barroom and one OF
two others which we have forgot
ten. Even at that they were good,
and especially Uncle Tom and Little
Eva. Old plays bring back those
days long departed and if it is but
to see the bloodhounds chase Eliza
across the ice, we old-timers will
occupy front seats tonight. This is
a week when the aged folks have
an inning; Monday night it was
the old-time circus with the men
agerie smells of sawdust and such,
the hip-hurrah music and the
clown jokes; tonight Uncle Tom
and all that goes with it. This
company is said to be playing to
good houses along the line.

Sunday Longest Day.

For months past the sun has
been steadily moving northward,
as all have noticed, rising earlier
and setting later day by day and
appearing higher in the sky, shin
ing with more direct and effective
rays with each succeeding month
Of the spring season. It's north
ward movement is now slowing
down, and on Sunday, June 81, at
400 p. m. the great solar sphere
reached the summit of it's long
ascent. This is the summer sol
Stce, and is the first point in the
zodiacal sign Cancer or the Crab.
Here the sun will pause for a
short time to enjoy the cool atmo-
sphere of the worlds greatest body
OF fresh water and then will re-
Iuctantly turn and slowly start its
long trip to southern terrestrial
attitudes.
Sunday, accordingly, was the
longest day of this year, with fif-
teen hours and fifty-three minutes
to its credit of solar radiations of
hight and heat. Sunrise on that day
was at Alb a. m. and sunset at
nus p. m. These hours will be
nearly the same for few days pre-
cedng and following that date.

Went Into Ditch.

One Of the cars carrying the
Wakefield ball players home last
Sunday from Eagle River, was
crowded into the ditch just after
crossing the Wisconsin river on
Highway 20 a mile south of the
Conradsen store at the state line
junction. A touring car coming at
excessive speed from the north
caught the Wakefield car just as it
was leaving the bridge. In order
TO avoid being killed the driver
turned his car toward the ditch,
nut escaped any damage or injury.
The touring car, simply hesitated
and then drove off leaving the
Wakefield fellows to get their car
back into the road the best they
could.

lAKEFIELD TOOK GAME
lichiganders' Ability to Hit
Over Circus Tents Gives
Lead Over Locals.

Ball players and fans, especially
he local aggregation, found out
\ Sunday that the incest way to
nnote the losers end to oneself
to play ball among tent ropes,
Dos and circus tents. But the
6resaid tents and ropes and pegs
INST be right furninst the dia-
md, between second base and the
Iortstop alley.
Wakefield, Michigan, and Eagle
River ball players came together in
weighty contest last Sunday at
! age River 1t was mighty good
lame, even though we had it put
rer with the losers ticket as our
hare. A good attendance showed
b on the grounds and the day was
st hot enough to give the proper
ep to players and fans.
Starting off in the first, the
Wakefield batters found Paul for
geral two-baggers. This was due
10 the ability of the outfield to play
their positions on account of the
GoIImar circus having pitched their
tents right alongside the center
and outfeld. With guy ropes and
pgs it was worth a players life to
Inv and field a ball. In the first
hale Wakefield ran in with four
sores, and the locals never were
able to gather in the surplus to
win out.
Each team played good clean ball
and snapped into the tussle with a
vim worthy of notice. And it was
a clean game all the way through.

Circus Was Good.

Gollmar Bros. cirucus which
showed in Eagle River Monday af-
ternoon and evening was rather
good, being Of the form of the old
time circus of one and two rings.
The trained animals were really
worth seeing and both shows had
crowded tents. The only thing
missed was the street parade, and
this disappointed many of the
kiddies who had travelled miles to
see the elephants and Gagged ami
mails.
