A Very Rare Occurrence.

A Whitehall deer killed on Rock creek
near the Hogback few weeks ago by
Alex Glover proved quite curiosity to
hunters and sportsmen in this section.
The animal was female with spikes
about three inches long, in velvet-which
is another remarkable freak at this sea-
son of the year, and the oldest sports
men claim that similar occurrence has
never been heard of before.

the construction of a coaling station at
that point.
The work contemplated for that place
will consist of the construction of docks,
sheds and other structures and the deep
ening of the harbor and its approaches.
1t is of great importance at this stage
that the work be prosecuted with great
vlgor.
Mr.. Brown first came to this city in
1886, as assistant to Capt. Carter, and
worked for that officer off and on until
1897, and during his term Of service has

Dr. Stones loft of pigeons being very

any naval operations are conducted in this
vicinity that they viii be used for the pur-
pose OF conveying news TO Savannah.
The National Association Of American
Homing Pigeon Fanciers of the
United States has made ten
der TO the Secretary of the
Navy of the lofts owned by its members
for use in case Of war. The members of
the association have lofts containing over
1000 birds. They will be used as means
of communication between warships at sea
and the government, and are now being
trained for The work. During naval war
