JEkYL ISLAND DEER.
Swim Across st. Simon's Sound In Search
of Food.


II has always been claimed that the
game on Jekyl island would not leave
the island. but reports from ST. 81
mons come to the effect that numbers
of the deer are swimming across ST.
Simons sound and landing on the
beach near Ocean pier. says the Sa-
Vannah (Ga.) News. The result OF
this is that numerous hunters are get
ting shots and enjoying venison in
such quantities as they have never en-
joyed that delicacy before. 1t seems
that the deer on Jekyl have increased
SO numerously within the past few
years that they are no longer wholly
wild. but at night come up around the
clubhouse and play around the flowers.
Their depredatiOnS on the choice beds
of the millionaires favOrite plants be
came 50 troublesome that a strong
wire fence was built and now inclOSeS
some acres Of the ground Immediately
around the clubhouse. This kept the
deer away from the flowers, but it did
not do anything toward stopping them
from increasing in numbers. When
| the storm came it carried away lots OF
the vegetation that the deer had been
feeding on, and there was not enough
left to go around. The deer then COM
| menced TO figure on going off to get
| something TO eat, and it ended in
their seeking st. Simon's. 1t is good

men are in boats crossing the sound,

| the deer turn back toward the Jekyl
shore and seek refuge in the woods OF

! no one is allowed to place his feet on

| club, and in this their instinct tells

way back and get safe on Jekyl than
it is to swim even a short way to st.
