DEER INvADEs BEDROOM

BOSTON, Mass, Dec. 16.-Deer are
becoming so plentiful in Massachu-
sets that this morning Arthur White
and Elmer E. Blackman, occupying
rooms on the first story of the apart
ment house of 456 Massachusetts ave-
nue., Cambridge, had the fright OF
their lives because OF the frantlc at
tempts of a full grown doe to cllmp
into bed with them. White was
awakened by what sounded to him ike
the laborious efforts of an intoxicated
man to mount the stairs. The next
moment his door was burst open with
a crash and a large deer bounded IN
and made a headlong dive for the bed
White used his bare feet in a brave
effort to ward off the attack OF the
animal. and then reinforcements came
in the form of his friend Blackman. To-
gether. in scanty costume, they maze
an effort to get the deer into corner
but the strength of the animal was TOO
much for them.
The struggles of the men ana oeer
COMPLETELY wrecked the furnishings
in two rooms Finally with the aid
of outsiders who came to the rescue
the doe was penned in closet, Where
she wrought havoc with Whites CLOTH
ing. Later the animal was locked IN
q stable. The deer evidently came
from the Niddlesex fells. 49,.

HOPKINS AND POST EUNCOED
Bid Against Themselves for Loon Lake
Land Pay $1,000 for 1t.

SPOKANE, Wash. Dec. 16.-United
States Marshal Charles b. Hopkins
and Attorney Frank T. Post have pre-
scented to the commissioner of public
lands at Olympia a tale of woe that is
similar to the old story of the man
and his wife who bankrupted them
selves by unknowingly bidding against
each other for coveted article at a
public auction.
Hopkins and Post have for several
years camped together on a tract of
state land bordering Loon lake, in
Stevens county. Recently another man
applied for the sale at public auction
of the tract and the two Spokane men
decided to go in together and bid in
the tract for permanent use as a CAM
ping place and summer home.
The land was appraised at about
$3.50, which is said to represent its
true value. On the day of the sale
Mr.. Post sent from his office to do
the bidding young man named A. E..
Russell. Prior thereto he had tele-
phoned Lawyer Kirkpatrick of Colville
20 bid in the land if Russell did not
arrive in time. Kirkpatrick found
that he would be unable to attend the
eale, so delegated man named Ste
ems to take his place.
Russell arrived about noon and the
ale was to occur at ? o'clock Kirk
patrick and he took lunch together
but the former forgot all about Ste
vens and told Russell nothing about
him.
There We're two bidders at tho sale
and only two. They were Stevens nrd
Russell. and both We're bdCir~ -
Post and Hopkins. '~Nn. solemnly
IAN the price up to $500 before Rus
sell got enough.
Notes were later compared. with the
"esult that Messrs Post and Hopkins
have declined to take the land at the
price bid and have asked the COM
Tioners to reduce the amount to some
hing within reason. He has agreed
10 offer the land at resale to be held
IN the near future.
