SEE COUNTY EXHIBITS
AT THE STATE FAIR

An interesting feature for Pine
county visitors at the Minnesota State
Fair will be the Pine county agri-
cultural booth which is in charge of
Matt Poferl of Pine City. The ex-

work and planning by Mr.. Poferl and
is a credit to him and the entire
county.
With its many lakes and streams,
with it's fine assortment of all kinds
of soils, with its excellent location
as to climate and market, Pine county

in Minnesota.

INDIAN JOE LOCATES
BODY IN DEEP WATER

The spell which Indian Joe casts
upon the water yielded another
body recently and established more
than ever his right to the distinc-
ton of the country's outstanding
body finder"
The famous Indian appeared on
the scene at Christmas lake near
Minnetonka to recover the body of
Larry Lyons, drowned musician,
after a seven day search by others
had failed. The body was found
i'm a depression in 80 feet of water,
and would never have come to the
surface except for Indian Joe, it
is claimed.
Dynamite and diving had failed
when this man came to the rescue.
Christmas lake is fed by springs
and the strong undercurrent car
ried the body to deep water, where
the immense pressure of the water
held it there. The victim had evil
IDENTIFY been seized with cramps
as his arms were drawn up tightly
and could not be bent, while the
lower limbs were timber as in life.
Indian Joe, with true Indian
stoldity, constantly refuses to tell
his secret, but invariably finds
drowned bodies where every one
else has failed. He works alone,
mainly at night, and denies that
he uses diving methods. A full
blooded Indian, he claims powers
denied to others.

STATE DUCK
LAWS STRICT
Hunters Are Advi ed to Know Laws
Before Venturing Forth I'm
Quest of Game.

Duck hunters must bear in mind
that Minnesota laws relating to open
water shooting are more stringent
than federal regulations covering this
point as outlined recently by the u
S. Bureau of Biological Survey, Err
ling SwensOn, director of the Division
of Game and Fish, warned.
Open water shooting is defined by
state statute as follows: Waterfowl
and rails may be taken during the
open season from any place on land
from a stationary or permanent arti.
fetal blind used to conceal the hunter
when located on land but not from a
permanent artificial blind place any
where in public waters, and may also
be taken from a temporary but sta
tionary blind or from boat or canoe
propelled by paddle, oar, or pole
(other than a sail or power boat)
when the same is within the natural
growth of weeds, rushes, flags or 9TH
er vegetation sufficient to partially
conceal the hunter"
Must Purchase Stamps.
Director Swenson said that federal
duck stamps purchasable for 81 each
and required in addition to a state
small game hunting license may be
obtained now at all first and second
class postCffices. All persons over 16
years old must have a federal duck
stamp in order to legally hunt migra-
tory waterfowl.
Revised federal regulations do not
require the stamps be affixed to the
state hunting license as last year. 1t
is now only necessary for the hunter
to sign his or her name across the
face of the stamp and have it in pos
session at the time of the taking of
migratory waterfowl. Purchase IF
the duck stamp does not permit the
taking of waterfowl except in compli-
ance with federal and state laws.
County auditors report brisk adj
vance sale of small game hunting Ii
censes, Mr.. Swenson stated. With a
record abundance of ringnecked
pheasants and with waterfowl condi-
tions much improved, open seasons
will see an all-time high mark in
hunting in Minnesota this fall, he
said.

INTERNATIONAL
NEWS REVIEW
By GEORG STRANDVOLD

Yesterday the League of Nations
council assembled at Geneva once
more for the purpose of trying again
to avert the threatening war between
Italy and Ethiopia. Prospects for an
amicable settlement continue to be
gloomy, and whatever optimism still
remains has been further undermined

minister, Benito Mussolini. to the cf-
feet that if the council does not 1e-

Finals, Monday, September 2.
Sturgeon Lake 7, Grandy 5.
Sturgeon Lake surmounted the first
hurdle in the State Baseball cham
pionship race by winning the Sixth
Region title on Sunday and Monday.
The games on Sunday were one
sided. An overlooking crowd was on
hand to witness the elimination con-
tests. The Grandy team was an easy
victor over the Henriette club. Ole
Led1n, former Northern League pitch
er, was master of the situation at all
times and coasted along to an easy
victory aided by the good hitting and
fielding of his teammates.
In the second game, Mack Anderson,
veteran Sturgeon Lake hurler, re-
turned to the mound after long abb
sence due to arm injury, and tanned
the Wright batters allowing only eight
hits, passing none. and striking out
thirteen batters. The Sturgeon Lake
batting, led by Dutch Gay, assured
teammates gave him substantial sup
port.
The Final Game.
The Monday game was a more
spirited contest featured by sensa-
tiOnal fielding and hitting. Larson
pitched a fine game for the Grandy
club but the Lakers punched hits in
the first and eighth innings to pro-
duce a sufficient number of runs to
win the game.
Sturgeon Lake scored two runs in
the first inning when Olson singled
and scored on Dutch Gays triple to
centerfield. Gay scored on ice Klar's
single. They picked up one run in
the second inning when Monroe Cum
ningham walked, advanced on two in
field outs and scored on Nelson's
single. Another tally was made in
when H. Sutherland missed ground
err. Nelson advanced to third on two
infield outs and scored when Swan
son overthrow second base in an at
tempt to catch Gay who was stealing.
Sturgeon Lake tailed three more
runs in the eighth inning on four
successive singles by Olson, Gay,
Klar and Jack Cunningham respec-
lively.
Grandy started their scoring in the
second inning when Fieldheim doubled
and scored on Feske's single. They
could not tally again until the fifth
inning when Fieldheim again singled
which was followed by a single by
Feske, and fielder's choice by Wick
strom produced the run. In the eighth
inning they started scoring rally
when Peterson walked Bassett, Swan
son singled and Larson singled. Bas-
sett scored but Swanson was retired
at third base when Dutch Gay sur
prised him with hurried throw from
behind second base. When Peterson
walked Roger Sutherland, Bobby Oh
relieve him. He struck out Carlson
and forced H. Sutherland to pop to
first base to end the rally. Grandy
threatened again in the ninth when
Feske walked. Ledin pinchhit single
and both scored after two were out
when Jack Cunningham permitted
grounder to get by him. Larson, how
ever, grounded out to Gay for the
third out which ended the game and
the tournament.

every weapon in our possession. In any more cases of false alarms the fire department will prosecute; the situation here Is now too serious to be taken lightly or passed over."
 Supporting Acting Chief Cav- anaugh's contention that the num- Der of false alarms here are creat- ing dangerous situation are fig- ures supplied by Lieut.. Michael Flaherty, aide to Chief Thomas J. Lynch. Since Dec. l. the beginning of the fire department year, there have been 5S false alarms, and there are yet two and half months of the fiscal year remain ing. In 1884 there were 67 false alarms, while the year before there were GA. -...
 In the past few weeks no less have been prosecuted. Two young men were fined each $5 and costs. while a grown-up was fined $25 and costs. Unable to pay that amount, he went to jail.
 "In addition to all the other loss es it brings, Acting Chief Cav anaugh stated, "a false alarm too often brings with it serious injur- ies. It was only few years ago that Private John OLeary lost the use of both legs when there was an accident while his company was answering false alarm. An- other fireman, Joseph Fortin, was crippled when he injured his leg in sliding down firepole in his haste to answer an alarm which turned out to be false."
 Besides those two cases, many other firemen have been hurt while answering false calls". Acting Chief Cavanaugh went on." Then too. every time engine companies go out on a false alarm, there Is q possibility that 8 serious fire may break out while they are gone. Every false alarm costs the tax payers of Waterbury money"
 Two boxes, 1t was said at head quarters today, have been the scene of many false alarms. They are No. 356, near Town Plot school, and No. 252. at Walnut and Di- vision streets. Both are being placed under special police protec- ton.
 We won't accept in the future," said the acting chief emphatically, that the ringing of a false alarm was a 'boyish prank There's too much risk involved to take 1t that lightly. If those who send in false alarms want to make any excuses in the future, they can save them for court"

Sports Program for Win- ter Months to Be Dis-

WASHINGTON HILL

Joseph Shea, president of the Washington Hill A. C. has an- nounced that there will be an im- portant meeting of the club Mon- day night in the club rooms at & o'clock. Plans for the winter months wil be made and a cam paign for new members will be started. As this will be the first meeting since last spring, all mem- bers of the organization are urged to attend. A report on sports ac- tivities for. the coming year will also be taken up at the meeting.
 New Walk
 A new cement walk to tho en- trance of O'DonnelPs Hall on Washington street has just been completed by workmen. Although 8 petition was circulated in the fourteenth district to have the vot- CTS register their votes at Hope- vile school instead of at the hall, 1t is unlikely that the petition will be acted upon. Most of the signers of the petition are republicans and as the district is one of the strong est democrat sections in the city, 1t seems likely that when october arrives that the voters will con- tinue to cast their votes at O'Don- nell's hall.
 At meeting of the Raymond Hillies last night, final plans were made for the clubs fourth annual dance which will be held Thurs day evening at the Washington Park community house. As this will be the first event of the sea- son at the new community center. a large crowd is expected and the committee in charge feel sure that the dance will be just as big suc- cess as all the others given by the club have been.
