A short time since Ralph Will
liams, while out in the woods hunt
ing deer, came upon large buck,
standing some distance off, with
its head down, as if feeding. Rails
ing his rifle, Mr.. Williams fired ut
the animal, killing him; and when
he went to survey and cut the
throat of his deership, imagine
if you can, the surprise of the
hunter as he behsld the strange
sight before him-two deer in
stead Of one-large bucks, and
both dead, with their horns firmly
locked together. 1t would seem
that the two animals had been en-
gagged in deadly combat, and du.
ring the struggle, had pounced al
each other with such force tina,
when their heads came together
it was with such vigor that tn,
horns were so forcibly interviewer
that they were unable to extricatt
themselves. Appearances indicat
ed that they had had long anC
terrible struggle, and that finall,
ono OF the bucks succeeded il
breaking the back Of the other
thereby causing death. When Mr.
Williams shot the victorious mon
arch Of the forest, his vanquisheC
foe had been dead but for shor
time, and the living deer had drag
ged his dead combattant over {
hundred yards from the scene o
the battle. All effort to separate
the horns of the two animals prov
ed fruitless, and the heads were
brought to town, and have beer
seen by many of our citizens
They are to be shipped to Johr
Long, of Detroit, and will there
be properly preserved.

1t really begins to look as if the
north shore will have a railroad,
and that before long. The nucleus
of the enterprise is the Tawas log
ging road, or Prescott road, ex-
tending from Tawas southwesterly,
its length of 25 miles, and lacking
but twelve miles of forming
junction with the Mackinac divis-
ion Of the Michigan Central at
Summit station, in the extreme
northwestern corner Of Bay county.
1t is a narrow-gauged, logging
road, ironed with rather light rails,
but of late we'll ballasted, and well
bridged. Bay City merchants are
thoroughly awake to the impor-
lance to their city of building the
missing link, and will doubtless
subscribe enough to build it by an
other winter. In this effort we
opine they will be powerfully aid
ed by the Michigan Central, and
just here is the reason for the faith
we have in us that the road will as
suredly be built, and trains run
ming from Summit to Tawas in at
least a years time. An ounce OF
cooperation from the Central is
far more effective in the construc-
ton of a railroad into a new coun-
try than a pound Of State Lsgisla-
lures and idle swamp land grants.
Trains running to Tawas will call
out capital enough in Au Sable and
Oscoda to build the intervening IL
miles. In this way the iron horses
whistle will wake the echoes OF
Thunder Bay, if at all. So far as
the present winter is concerned, we
fear our travellers will have TO stage
it, although we are informed that
the management Of the Prescott
road intend to put on two coaches
and run trains out to the end OF
the line, connecting there with a
stage line managed and in part
owned by VIM. Shipley, Of Au
Sable, for Summit. Mr.. S. claims
passengers will gain time, save
money and half the discomforts OF
the present mode Of travel to
Standish station, by taking the
cars at Tawas.-Au Sable News.
