Every day adds to the surprises If
this remarkable war. The towns of
Porto Rico are surrendering to the
American force with delight and cheer
ing by the inhabitants of the con-
querors. If anything could humble the
pride of Spain, it would be the sight OF
the eagerness with which her forme,
colonies are welcoming the prospect of
escaping her further rule.

Waterville Mail: The newspapers
begin to tell about how plentiful deer
are to be the coming fall and the eager
sportsman, as The reads the reports,
speculates on his chances of getting his
share of the fun that is to be had in
the Maine woods beginning with Octo-
Der. There is no room for questioning
these reports about the abundance of
this game. Although the hunting sea-
son last year saw thousands OF deer
carried out of the woods there is good
reason 10 believe that the natural in
crease of the months since then has
more than made good the loss, also
taking into account the not inconsid-
cradle inroads made upon the numbers
of the deer by those shot for their
venison out of season by the men who
live in the lumber camps and by the
people living on the outskirts of the big
woods. 1t seems too bad that the
slaughter of the deer by this last class
could not in some way be leSsened. 1t
is a fact known to all familiar with
existing conditions that hundreds Of
Maine deer are captured out of season
every year by men who are not Skilfui
enough to get them in season and vino
employ all sorts of Illegal devices to
effect their capture. There are plenty
of families living on the edge. as 1t
We're. of the big woods VINO eat deer
all through the summer months, and
nobody makes any fuss over ii. The
inhabitants of the regions where this
sort of thing prevails are familiar with
4.
complain Of his neghbors in such a
case and so the thing goes on. as there
is not a sufficiently effective warden
service to put upon the job men who
are not influenced by considerations OF
acquaintance or friendship. When
the State wakes up to the wisdom of
cXpending upon the warden service
what the Importance of the big game
interests of the state demands, some
of this reckless out of season slaughter
will be stopped.

star for the coming musical festival at
Bangor. "A Maine girl With Maine
name" and one who promises to rival
the fame of the great singers of thu
age. She is Miss Rosa Green, a sister
of Mrs. Edwin L. Dyer of Portland.
Miss Green is in London" said Pro-
fessor Chapman, land l received a
cablegram, Thursday, finally settling
the matter. She will be here at both
festivals. Miss Green has been a great
success in England and sang at the
Queens jubilee last year. l regard Miss
Green as a great accession and shall
be proud to introduce a new Maine
singer to the people of Maine" The
negotiation with Miss Green was rather
prolonged, the Maine girl being unwill-
ing to break off her musical studies,
and also having booked engagements
abroad. Miss Green is said to have 4
charming personality and to have been
a general favorite in society before she
went TO Europe to continue her musical
studies. Professor Chapman is aboat
to plunge into work again. His plans

 not get 1t, for in cases of emergency
 a regiment is not withdrawn from
 one part of the line and sent to an
 other and more distant part when
 other regiments are nearer and can

 quickly Even though the general

 he considered the post of oppor- tunity, the other commander, in following that rule of warfare to do
 not that which your enemy antici- pates, but that which he does not expect, might force the fighting on the very part of the line where least anticipated, giving the regiments which were to have the least con sideration the very opportunities the favored regiments were intended to get. Only in an assault on for tified positions or strong situations can preferences be made, and even then the particular regiment will not be called should 1t be too far away from the point to be assaulted. Its brigade may be very necessary to protect from counter assault an exposed position. The regiment will not be withdrawn from the po- sition and sent to the storming column simply because its colonel stands we'll with the president who wants the political soldier to distin- guish himself.
