NEED FOR GAME WARDEN
As has been pointed out by this paper, the Seward
Chamber of Commerce, and by numerous citizens, time
and time again, there is much to recommend the placing
of a game warden in this district, which might be said to
be the center of big game hunting, and thereby necessitat
ing closer supervision than other portions of the Territo
ry. ‘'’Hi
Of the big game hunters frequenting Alaska, fully
90 per cent of them hunt on Kenai peninsula, coming and
going thru Seward. This alone is sufficient reason why a
game warden should be stationed at this point.
Instead of regulations aimed at added penalties for
game violations and added burdens of taxation, why is it
not logical to provide a police force of sufficient numbers
to enforce the law? * .
Herr Burchmann of Berlin was recently given a 3
year sentence for robbery and laughed heartily, thinking
it a good joke. It seems that in addition to being philoso
phical, he also has a sense of humor. The joke lay in the
fact that he had already been given sentences aggregat
ing 208 years, for committing some 500 robberies, so he
didn't mind three years more.
Charles Wolf, a 15-year-old New York boy, has given
up the idea of suicide, or has at least postponed it until
warmer weather comes. He jumped into East River, but
quickly climbed out again. When questioned he said:
T was going to commit suicide, but the water was too
cold.’'
Major, a pet monkey owned by Thojnas Charles of
Jersey City, has been taught to do a number of interest
ing stunts, including that of shining his master's shoes.
A new kind of “monkey-shine.”
Among the many inquiries being made by the Feder
al Trade Commission is an investigation of trade prac
tices of mop manufacturers, who have been called upon
to explain how they conduct their business. Wont it be
grand when we can be assured that there is no mop trust?
More than 500 Masons were assembled recently at
Wheaton, 111., to witness the conferring of the Master
Mason degree on “Red Grange, famed football star. . It
is said that “Red” didn't try any forward passes or line
bucks on the Masonic “goat.”
Genuine superior roasts and fowls, backed by
the Frye—Bruhn Company reputation for
quality, and sold at reasonable prices.
