Opposed 10 Summer Shooting.
Boston, Nov. 2, 1897.
Mr.. Editor.

Vhi. ILullOT,
Dear Sir: Inclosed is a copy of some
proposed game laws clipped from the
Boston Herald. AS nonresident
sportsman l want to put in a vigorous
protest against one proposition. and
that is summer shooting. l have seen
too many heads and hides rotting in
the sun ever to wish such things tn
become legal
l feel sure that if the law makers
realized how many deer were killed
illegally in the summer they would
make further liberty in this direction
impossible.
l know whereof speak for have
been in the woods nearly every month
in the year and know to some extent
the violation that is going on.
consider shooting a deer in summer
and especially a doe with sucking
lawns. little less than murder. Maine
game laws are not too stringent, the
only difficulty is that they cannot be
more rigidly enforced, and no sports
man worthy of the name can think
otherwise
Consider well, oh lawmakers before
you grant a license to kill a deer in
August or September for food or any
other purpose. Such a license, even
were it not taken advantage of, would
at least be harmful to the future game
supply. BA-KO-NE-GAD.

Now is good time for you to find
out whether you are as big fellow as
you think yourself to be, or whether
the bump of egotism is responsible for
such thoughts. Walter S. Whitehouse,
who comes fresh from the American
Institute of Phrenology" has rooms at
IS Chapel street and will aim to tell
you many facts regarding your defects
and advantages. 1t is sometimes well
to know more about our childrens pro-
clivities that we may more intelligently
guide their footsteps, wisely checking
their course when required not for
getting to encourage them when it is
for their good. An examination by a
true phrenologist can do no harm, will
certainly be amusing and may be very
profitable.

The rumor comes from Suncook that
a number of well-known sportsmen
from Augusta are talking Of buying
up several townships near the foot OF
Chesuncook lake. for the purpose Of
establishing private game preserve.
The name of ]. Manchester Haynes is
mentioned in connection with the
scheme, which includes the erection of
a club house. Mr.. Haynes has hunted
in that section of the State for sew
eral years, and knows from experience
that it is a great place for game, es-
pecially moose. His party killed two
moose there this fall. The establish
ment of such preserve would of
course mean that other sportsmen who
have hunted there will have to go else
where, and opens the eyes of the sport
ing public to the possibility of what
might happen if other wealthy sports
men should undertake the same thing.
But it is only a rumOr, and although
coming direct from the place itself.
may not be under serious cOntempla-
ton, or even possible for that matter

Haynes office, Friday. but found he
was in Boston, so it could not be ascer-
tanned whether or not there is any
truth in the rumor.
