ENCOURAGING reports have been re

Encouraging reports have been re-
ceived in the city from the party of
mighty hunters who are devastating
the wild game down from Mattawam-
keag way. The first few days of the
trip being rainy, the game was found
mostly inside the camp, and though
somewhat limited, several jack pots
were flushed up. The ferocious Garos-
cutus that caused the hunters so much
anxiety, last year. is conspicuous by
his absence, but the man-eating Wal
abco's tracks have been seen several
times near the shore. DR.. Blakely and
M. f. Sawtelle. Esq, have succeeded in
bagging a flock of Welsh rabbits and
DIR. Hathorn was fortunate in getting a
shot at a deer with an alvista. He is
quite positive that it was a negative
shot. and hopes with the aid of a dark
room to bring it out SO that it will be
visible to the naked eye. The party
expects to return during the present
week. heavily laden with game. pro-
vided the farmers up in those parts dc
not keep their hen houses too closely
watched. and the cows yarded over
night.

The new boilers in the basement or
the city building are now in complete
working order and have met with
the approval Of every one who has seen
them. Fire has as yet been kept un-
der but one of them. and a very low
fire at that, but the building has peen
as comfortable as could be DESIRED
and Janitor Isaac Clark is of the opin-
ion that the boilers will reduce the
consumption of fuel fully one-naiI.
The covering of the steam pipes with
coating of asbestos and felt Is an
other improvement which has oeen
made in the heating plant. and II Is
now thought that the heating OF the
building can be done at very econom-
ical figure.
