country’s dwindling game supply “It has been the practice in many States,” the department says “to issue hunting licenses for the open season to all applicants, with tod little regard for the available game supply of any particular area. The hunters may far outnumber the animals hunted within a given section and under such conditions the extinction of big game especially is inevitable. “The Department of Agriculture advocates a limited license plan for
games of the series but they will be out today to try the sensational. “We’ve got to take some chances,” de dared Assistant Manager Hughey Jennings. “We took them during the regular season and turned many a defeat into victory Against such pitching as we have faced thus far. there is no alternative. We’ve got some ideas along that line and maybe they’ll enliven our boys a bit.”

o
The board of commisisoners and township trustees of the various townships of Clay County after being in session practically all day yesterday, finally agreed on the salary for the county superintendent of schools before adjourning last even-

CALIFORNIA POLICE SEEK TO SOLY E HOOSIER’S DEATH LOS ANGELES, Cal., Oct. 7.— Murdered for money he is said always to have carried upon his person a suicide from motives unassigned or the victim of an accident, the sea at Venice yesterday gave up the body of a man identified by Miss Margaret Fuller of this city as that of Solomon A. Lewis, her fiance, from Elkhart, Indiana. To try to solve the mystery of the manner in which Lewis came to his death a coroner’s inquest is to lxheld. Whatever the verdict, the finding of the body ends a romance which had its inception when Lewis and j Miss Fuller met upon a train when each was coming here to make this city their home. They were to be mar ried November 9, Miss Fuller said. The bereaved bride-to-be scouts the theory of suicide.
