Dring the noble animal down in his
tracks as he stands quivering with fear
ana excitement at signs of the ap-
proach OF danger. Your triumph now
Is complete. Your reputation at the
camp will be secure. But, after all,
the feeling of triumph will be tinged
not a little with regret for robbing a
| thing of such grace and beauty of it's
life. The look of appeal in the eyes of
wounded deer is something which
one Is not likely soon to forget.
Owing to wise game laws, the wild
forest herds in the Pine Tree State are
fast increasing. Many moose and deer,
Of course. are killed illegally, espe-
cialiy about these sporting camps be-
fore the open season, but nevertheless,
there is no likelihood of these forests
being depleted of their chief attraction
to the hunter. Before going into the
State on hunting trip, one should be
careful to make himself acquainted
with the game laws. Oct. 1 opens the
season for deer. and Dec Is closes it.
Not over two deer may be shot by any
one person in a season. Bull moose
may be hunted after Oct. 10. The kill
ing of COW moose is illegal. There are
few caribou in the State. and none of
these may illegally be killed. Non-res-
ident sportsmen going into the wild
lands of the State must be accom-
| panied by registered guide, or stop
at registered sporting camp.
There is much to repay one for a
journey deep into the woods of Maine.
Even if he is not thirsting for blood,
and is more or less Indifferent as to the
killing of game, whether big or little,
the wholesome food of the sporting
camp. the fine dry air of the woods,
and the democracy and freedom of it
all will be more than a reward for
such a trip, no matter how dearly
bought.

Moose may be found almost any
where in the big game region of Maine,

means a trip of several days from the

Arbitration Wins in Two Chicago
Labor Disputes.

-. Also Adopts nm Arbitration
Agreement.

Chicago, June 412-Arbitration of labor
disputes has won in two important VIC
tories in Chicago. The teamsters have
reached an agreement with the team own
ers and employers and after long con-

were incorporated in a. resoIdtion,- the
vital portion OF which reads as follows:

It gives to the union full recognition of

witness this morning in the case Of Frank
Tanke, charged with the murder of John

Tets taken from the body of the murdered

been in his possession from the time of
the inquest until the meeting of the grand
jury, when he had turned them over to
Clerk Of Courts Blomberg. He failed,
however, to recognize one Of those Of
fered IN evidence as the one taken from
the skull of Wellners saying that if it
we're the one it had been altered in ap-
pearance since 1T was in his possession.

His Resignation Was Sent in Last

Washington, June u. - Regarding his
resignation as member Of the Dawes In
dian commission, Tan1s Bixby tells a
story that does not agree with the one
sent r b our a recently f4om this
city. Mr.. Bixby says that about the mid
die Of April be sent the president a let
ter resigning his place. There were no
strings to the resignation, and under its
terms the president could have accepted
at once and named successor. This,
however, he did not see fit to do, but on
the other hand, sent a telegram to Bixby
asking him to come to Washington at
once. Bixby came and had a conference
with the president, who said that he
wanted him to go back to the Indian ter
ritory and resume his work there, push
ing It along as rapidly as possible to
completion. This Bixby finally decided
to do, seeing that he had the president S
Endorsement. ri
1t. should be said that the letter Of
resignation came to the president direct,
and was not sent through the usual chan
mel, the interior department. r.
That there mas been a good deal Of fric-
tion between the department and the
Dawes commission there is no question.
The department has listened to the sto-
ries of certain influential people in the
southwest who have come into contact
with the commission and been unable to
carry out their plans in the Indian terri
tory because of objections which it made.
Mr.. Bixby was responsible for these OBJ
jections. It is not understood that Sec
retary Hitchcock had any improper mo-
ttves In view when he took a stand
against Bixby, but it is evident that as
much cannot truthfully be said Of the
southwestern business men who got his
ear. .. ~
