wb,r,pools In Lake.

The whirlpool near the center OF
Lake Popo, which receives the waters
of Lake Tlticacn, In Peru, Is well
known, and hundreds of men have lost
their lives by venturing too near IT,.
Boats that are drawn into the current
are whrled swiftly around for few
times and then disappear. For. the
protection of navigators the govern
ment of Bolivia has anchored lot of
buoys In Lake PopO, and boatmen who
observe them are In no danger. There

thrown into their waters have after

that on the beach in that locality are
frequently found cornstnlks. reeds and
other debris which does not grow on
the coast, but are found In great
abundance among the interior lakes.

CRIME In THE ADIRONDACKS,
1t Seems Safer TO Kill Man Than a
Deer out of Season,

The true Adirondack woodsman-the
man born and bred in the mountains
has little respect for the game laws.
While he may realiz3 that the preserva-
ton of the deer and trout aud the con
sequent visits of city spOrtsmen with
well-filled purses are due TO these laws,
and that in this sense they are the
goose responsible for his golden egg, it
is hard, in the winter months, when the
larder is reduced TO the pork barrel, to
resist the temptation to shoulder q gun
and make an attempt at knocking over
some fresh meat. Ii he is fortunate
enough to do the trick, not much time
will elapse before the horns, head and
hide of the animal are buried, the car
cass cut up, and some choice cuts of
"mountain sheep" are slowed away in
the woodlands cabin With this done
the danger of detection is past, and un-
less some i'll .natured neighbor has wit
messed the shooting and chooses to
make it warm for the hunter, he is safe
from the clutches of the law and the
game protector.
Ia one of the Adirondack counties
there have been in the past ten years
several homicides, but in no case has
there been conviction of murder in the
first degree. The same county has also
seen frequent violations of the game
laws and it has sometimes happened
that punishment has followed the lat
ter Uffense more swiftly aud with
greater proportionate severity than the
capital crime. A group OF mountain
GERS were discussing this state of af-
ia rs in an Adirondack cabin not long
ago.
81 believe" said the sage of the
party, ''it's safer TO kill man than
deer in this county. Ii ye got to.kill
somethin' jest crack yer wife over the
head with POKER or shoot yer enemy
in the back, The jury'll acquit ye on
the ground that twas accidental. But
don't kill deer out o. season, or yell
lind yerself behind the bars quicker'n
lightnin'."

ihe-mountain district. Judge Powers
had been charged with recreancy to the
interests of his farmer constituents in
certain ways in respect of the maple
sugar industry. Judge Powers con-
sidered the matter of sufficient impor-
lance to write the Burlington Neos
letter upon the subject of bis course
in Congress on the maple sugar legis'
lation in the early part of this decade.
In the course of his letter the Judge
writes:
The Rutland News Is the author OF the
suggestion that 1 misrepresented my con-
stituents on this question. In its first refer
ence to the matter 1t intimated that 1 op-
posed the passage of the bill giving the
bounty Later IL said "Worked, voted and
perhaps spoke" in fauor Of its repeal. Both
statements are untrue.
The WATCHMAN was taking at the
time an active interest in the matter of
bounty on maple sugar, believing it
would be not only to the pecuniary ad-
vantage of the farmers of Vermont but
that, the bounty being paid on only
sugar of specified degree of purity, it
would have tendency materially to i'm
prove the general quality, and hence the
value, of the product. Judge Powers
course was something of a disappoint-
ment to Vermont farmers in general
and was at the time the subject of
some criticism in the newspapers and
on the part of maple sugar producers.
In his statements in the letter to the
Burlington Ne,os he seems to have for
gotten what he said, or is reported to
have said by the Congressional Record
of the ffty-6fth Congress, March Is
1892. The official report of Mr.. Powers
words is this:
In this connection will say that I hau,
myself, in order to do what regard bene
fl to our own producers, introduced a bill Il
retire the old duty and to repeal this bounty
because the difficulty of obtaining the
bounty, the red tape necessary to be resort
cd to in order to get it, compels the produc
or to lose the early market on maple sugar
he must lose more than two cents poun(
If he undertakes to secure this bounty"
The words in italics would seem Il
indicate that the judge was rash in pro
nouncing "untrue" the statements al
to his action in the matter o
the bounty. Either he is mistaken
or the Congressional Record is il
error. 81 have myself introduced
bill to repeal this bounty:
This seems to be conclusive of tn,
whole matter, unless the official RECORD
of proceedings in Congress can be i'm
peached. AS this was matter of Stat
interest, reference thereto may possibl
be made without indictment for inter
fering in the fret district fight.
