BosroN, oct. l7.-Not for years have deer
in Massachusetts, been 30 plenty or so bold
AZ this fall, but sportsmen are pre- vented
by law from shooting them. penalty OF
500 is imposed upon any man found guilty
of killing one of the animals
As this statute has been in effect for
sOnC time, the deer have increased al

the state. II II said, though, that deer arr

not imported from Maine, New Hampshire

II is not an uncommon thing in any coun-

TO sec deer wandering in the highways or

animals become that they help themselves
TO garden truck with impunity, much TO the
disgust Of the farmers.

.33 CALIHRE RIFLES.
Renewed Favor for Small BOres Among
Hunters in Maine This Season.


Hunters in Maine This Season.
GREENvILLE. Me-, Oct. 1.-THE small
bore rife is again coming into favor with
the big game hunters. Twice as many
Of these arms have been taken into the
woods through here this year as last.
When the small bore was first put upon
the market nearly every hunter carried
number began to diminish until these arms
were decidedly in the minority. The argu-
ment used was that the gums did not stop
the game they wounded, and hunters went
back to their former weapon of larger
calibre.
The light weight of the small bore has
always appealed to the hunters, and with
new loads, mushroom bullets and slightly
increased calibres the weapon is again
coming into favor. The 80 is an especially
popular weapon this season.
Among the larger bores the 1855 still
holds it's place and bids fair to do so always
becaGsc i is happy medium; but advo-
still to be found and the y continue to argue
that the shock from one Of these bullets
downs game that would have gone great
distance, even If mortally wounded by a
small bullet These guns are much in favor
with the guides and wooclsmen

is usually the same, no matter from what
side the birds are flushed.
The best localities are low or swampy
coverts in which abandoned or wild apple
trees grow, deserted orchards, or orchards
bordered by covert; but the apples must
be ripe, mellow and bit sweet to appeal
to the grouse. Under trees bearing such
fruit they will often congregate In great

seeming to prefer the windfalls, but there
are usually few in the trees. The birds
rarely feed except during a few hours Of
the early morning and late afternoon or
evening. The greatest number will be
found upon clear still, sunshiny days.
They are sometimes found feeding through
out gray day or Immediately after
storm
Apple tree hunting for grouse is fascinat-
ing, but at the same time difficult 1t is
hard to get within range of the birds, and
the shots call for quick, skilful handling
of the gun. A dog is unnecessary and is
positive nuisance unless he Ia thoroughly
broken to heel and taken along only for
retrieving.
As a table bird the grouse are now at
their best. Their food for weeks past
has been grains and berries, and the apple
diet is just what is needed to give sweet
ness tenderness and flavor to their flesh
which is found at no other time CT the year.

such cases, a warden WAS sent 70 Chelsea

difficulty the buck waA induced to get into

From the rural districts complaints are
coming with great frequency Of damage
done by deer TO garden truck. The farmers

the fact that they are protected by st atute

Last winter the Legislature passed
law whereby any loss cansed by the eat
ing. browsing or trampling OF fruit or
ornamental trees, vegetables, produce or
crops by deer, may be rec overed from
the State treasury. 1t Ia now hex oming Of
common occurrence for deer TO make
an assault on garden, trampe down

Bio MOOSE, N. y. Oct. H. Every day
or two the fact is brought to. the notice Of
hunters that deer cannot see as well ia a

been deer hunting and he will laugh at
you, but it is fact that the average human
being has better vision and a greater range
than has the refdeer Of the. North Woods.

MOOSE MARKED WITH HIS NAME.
Unusual Adventure OF y Locomotive Fin

locomotive engineer on the Intercolonia4
Railway, has fine big moose with antlers
sixty-four inches across and marked with
HIS name fattening for him down in New
Brunswick He got him near Richibucto

stealing the company's property.
King was running slowly toward Kent's
Junction when he saw the moose in the
bushes alongside the track, with a railroad
crossing gate attached to his horns. As he
passed. King noticed that the creature was
inextricably caught in the branches by the
wire gate, and at once stopped his train
Together with James Card. the conductor,

then deliberately scratched his name upon
them. The big fellow was quite tame in

GAME IN PENNSYLVANIA.
Quail and Pheasants Scaree-Bears asitl
10 He Plentiful. VI ID

WILLIAMsPoRT. Pa. Oct. II The hunt
ing season opened in Pennsylvania this
week While some kinds Of game are scarce
others are unusually plentiful, and the
gunners seem to have no reason for COM
plant. The season will close on Dec. rs,
giving two months Of sport.
Quail and pheasants are reported as very
scarce. This is accounted for by the fact
that the fires in the spring burned out many
Of the nests and at the same time made it
more difficult for the birds to live.
Wild turkeys are plentiful, comparatively
speaking. but they are 30 wary that they
escape many Of the hunters.
II is likely that bear hunting will be
popular. Bears are very plentiful. The
scarcity of chestnuts and beechnuts hes
driven them to the cornfelds and orchards
for food, and many Of them have been shot
as the result Of these trips. Black bears
seem to be becoming more numerous each
year.
The laws limit the number Of pheasants
that any one hunter may kill in day to ten
and the number Of wild turkeys to two.

Opening of their Fall and Winter

Monday, October 10Th.
As is we'll known, the nIqulu, &
Setter collection of plates is now the
largest in variety, the best selected
in the buying and practically the
most important of any in the United
States. This, as we'll as every other
department of the store, has recently
been augmented by the arrival Of
new and beautiful goods from all
parts of the world. Lovely as they
are, impossible as it is to duplicate
many of the most charming designs,
valuable as they must be, both from
the aesthetic and commercial view
points, no departure will be made in
any instance from the established
price policy of
"A less than elsewhere"
except, as in the plate sale, when
reduction of 1-3 and 1-2 is sched-
uled, for example:
For the convenience of selecting,
several hundred dozen plates of as.
sorted sizes, in varied and choice
decorations, will be placed on tables
at uniform prices of 25 cents, 80
cents, Is cents, $l.0O and $500
each. To describe in one advertise
ment all of these plates would be
absolutely impossible, SO from each
lot we can select one design only as
an example Of many others of equal
value.
