Dolngs Of the Hunters.

The value Of good telescope OF
glass was illustrated forcibly to Maine
hunter recently while he was after
deer in an open space in the woods that
had been formed by fire some years
ago. The hunter had tolerably clear
range of vision for eighty or one hun
dred rods across the open, but beyond
that briars and scrub-growth pOplars
made it extremely difficult to see. The
hunter sat down on the side of one
ridge and watched the side of another
across wide gully. He was certain
that deer was on that hillside. After
a bit he saw something moving in the
bushes near big clump Of trees that
had escaped the fire. nearly ninety rods
away. The something seemed small,
and was OF a neutral tint, not apt to be
observed by tenderfoot at all at such
a distance.
The hunter had a small telescope
with him, one worth about 50. He
took 1t out to look at the moving thing.
Instantly he made out the form of q
small deer a doe. He was not after

Instead of folding up the glass. he be-
gan to examine the ridge side carefully
with it. When his glass turned to q
little alder bed, following the course OF
a brook in the gully, he saw the form
of big deer through the bushes. When
he took down his glass to look at the
deer with his bare eyes. he could not
see it, He tried several times, and a,
last succeeded in locating the deer. II
was not hard then to wait for the deer
to move out, which 1t did in about ar
hour. and was dead before 1t knew a
man was anywhere near.

Is a paradox, but a glance at the map OF

true. On the Baltic she has only one har-
Dor suitable for a naval station, that OF
Cronstadt and that is closed in the win

on the Pacific she has only one that Of
Nladivostock, which is 50 far north that
In the winter IL shares the fate of Crons-
tadt In the Black sea she has built up
a powerful navy, great dockyards and
considerable ship building plant. but
there IS no way for her fleet 10 get out OF
the Black sea except by forcing the Bos-
phorus and the Dardanelles, narrow wa
terways, strongly fortified. At present il
is impossible for her to concentrate her
naval forces. She must keep three navies
on the seas. But all the time her naval
power Is growing, and steadily she is push
ing south and seeking the removal Of the
shackles which now restrain her from
graphing with the naval supremacy OF
England.
When she does burst out there will be
the very dickens to pay on the face of the
great waters. Russia Of late has been de-
voting a great deal of attention to the
creation Of ship-building plants. To get
an 'fce-free' port on her western coast
is one Of the great desires OF the nation
The experiment was made Of estsbIsfing
a naval port at Libau, in Courland. but Il

one thing observable about the Russian
meet Is the great proportion OF modern

but for fighting pure and simple.
The United States and Russia have AT
least one thing in common in regard 10
their naval power, the difficulty of con
centrating their fleets. This country must
keep two fleets TO watch its coasts. There
must be feet on the Pacific and one on
