ADIRONDACK ELK KILLED.
WantOn Gunners shoot Four Of the Five
Glue TO Guilty Persons.


UTICA, n. Y, Sept. s--Four of the FIVE
elk which were placed in the Adirondacks
last year have been killed by hunters within
two days. The permanent residents Of
the Adirondaoks, and summer visitors as
well, are highly wrought up over the out
rage.
The herd Of elk was placed in the woods
last year by the Browns Tract Guides
Association with the expectation Of popu-
lating the woods with this splendid game.
The animals had become worry tame and
were frequently seen by Old Forge visitors
and guests.
One of the herd WAS killed on Sunday
near Clearwater and yesterday tho big bull
and two cows were found dead at First
Lake, North Branch, near the Bald Noun
tain House. As there is only one elk left,
this practically wipes out the herd.
The elk were protected by special act
making their killing misdemeanor. For
each killing there is penalty OF 500. The
law adds A person convicted OF mis-
demeanor for a violation Of section II Of
this article (slling elk shall be punished
by Imprisonment for a term Of not less
than three months nor more than one year. :"
This outrage will be investigated and
those responsible will be prosecuted with
vigor. The guides have clue VIII ich may
lead to an early arrest Of the hunters A
party OF members of the association has
started for tho neighborhood OF the killing,
and they will spare neither effort nor ex-
pense to bring about the arrest Of the guilty
persons.
1t ia possible that the elk were shot in
mistake for deer but the fact that three
of them were found slaughtered together
would seem to warrant the belief that they
were killed through sheer wantonness

Buy Your Goods at Home.

AS the fall season approaches
there are many purchases to be
made in the way of home equipment
and personal ware for all the mem
bers Of the family. The Tribune
would emphasize the request and
plea that purchases be made at home.
1t should be matter of citizen pride
to see that home merchants are pat
ronized, that no money be sent to
Chicago or Milwaukee which can be
spent at home. The head of the fami-
ly can throw out this injunction with
pursuation. Mineral Point merchants
carry excellent stocks; they pay
taxes in Mineral Point, and contrib
ute casa in various other ways to
help maintain the city's proud repu-
tation-the equal to any of its size in
the progressive northwest. Patron
ize Mineral Point merchants. Keep
the money circulating at home. If
tire prices seem high invite the mer-
chants attention thereto. You may
be mistaken. 1t should be an embar-
rassment to citizen Of this place,
who leans on the community for a
livelihood, to be seen discriminating
from a train laden with Chicago or
Milwaukee merchandise or receiv-
ing packages by express or other
wise.
