                      TOWN OF GRAND MARAIS PINCHED
                      
                 Arrested for Killing Deer and Partridges
                             Out of Season.
                             
           Munising, Oct. 4. - Because the justice of the peace at
         Grand Marais and a majority of the men of that village were
         arrested by Deputy Game Warden E. A. NOWACK, of Kalkaska, no
         court could be held there to try thirty-two cases against
         Grand Marais citizens for killing deer, running deer with
         dogs, selling venison and killing partridges. It was neces-
         sary to move the male population of the village here for
         trial.
           Among those arrested was H. P. SPENCER, of Cleveland, who
         said he is superintendent of large detective agency; members
         of the Grand Marais school board, two fire wardens, two for-
         mer United States coast guardsmen, hotel proprietors and
         business men.
           Enroute to Munising the warden searched passing vehicles
         for venison and found three rum runners and cases of whiskey.
         Two of the men have waived examination and more than $1,500
         in fines have been assessed the game law violaters. Several
         dogs have been put to death and an auto load of high power
         rifles, a ton of fresh canned and salted venison was confi-
         scated. - Petoskey News.
