wISCONSIN'S DEER HARVEST.
Hunters Coming Out OF the WOODS
Make u Great Display Of
CarcaAseS. a

Any man spending the night In one
of the small towns along the line OF
the Wisconsin Central railway in the
northern part Of the state on any
evening between November 15 and No
yember 80 would have seen enough
dead deer to last him lifetime. Each
day they came in from the woods for
20 miles on either side OF the road
hauled in by wagons which brought
also the tents and chests of the anna
teur sportsmen who annually visit
that part of the country when the deer
scason is on, states the New York
Sun.
The law permits a hunter to carry
two carcnsses home with him, ana
there were few men who did not
kill their quota.
The Wisconsin deer Is larger thnn
the deer further south. ms well as dark
er in color. and in November is apt 10
be fat. Many OF the bucks taken out
this season weighed between $50 and
100 pounds dressed. and one or two OF
them touched The 200 mark. The ven
ison was ~ in the primest condition.
On ore night at Fifield, little town
in Price county, 25 bucks were shipped
out many Of them with eight points,
some with ten, and some with H. These
2s pairs of horns made sight worth
seeing.
without exception these deer were
killed with the rife. The shotgun for
some reason seems to be discredited
az deer weapon, though IT will kill
cleanly at rs yards when loaded with
bnckshot, and the majority OF shots
obtained in he woods are inside OF
4 that distance. Some Of the bodies
showed the vitality OF the Wisconsin
deer being hit four and five times, the
bullets going through at places, and In
a way that ought to have been INSTANT
ly mortal.

HOME OF ENGLAND's QUEEN.
Alexandrn's Tact Was Learned I'm the
Palace of Her Royal
Parents.


No doubt much OF the sweet simplic-
ity and tact which so characterize the
queen Of England were learned in the
delightful home life OF the Gules nalace
from the example of her parents. When
the prince OF Glucksburg became king
he did not change any Of his customs.
according to writer in the Caautau-
guam. His friends were admitted as
freely as before and Queen Louise made
the tea herself. A little eneceote will
show the democratic nature Of King
Christian and the good fellowship
which prevails between ruler and
subjects. The king mingles with his
people and 1t is his daily custom TO walk
out unattended. except by his large Dam
lsh hound. One day as he was walking
through the streets Of Coper hagen he
met a crowd OF strikers who were dis
cussing something In an excited man
ner. Recognizing the king, they became
silent at his approach.

while they presented their grievances.
They wished an increase In wages
The king assured them that their en-
ployers could not do this without dam
age to themselves. The men, while NOV
ng a vote Of thanks to the king, decided
to continue the strike. The monarch
shortly afterward entered the palace,
not In the least offended that his advice
had not been adopted.

in stopping the strike" he remarked,
but after all, | suppose they under

KILLED BY "SLEEP DISEASE" I"
Uganda Being Depopulated ~ tAs
Sickness and Fears Are Felt
for Egypt.

The School Of Tropical Medicine has
issued report on the sleeping sick
ness which is now devastating Uganda.
Though it was discovered only few
years ago, 1t is computed that the dis
ease has already killed from 10000 to
10000 people. and is spreading to new
areas with increasing virulsnce, says
a Lonnon account.
Its extension to the north will be
of the greatest menace to Egypt. Sci
entific reports made on the spot de-
scribe the sleeping sickness as COM
plant something like that group Of
diseases known as meningitis or In
fiammation of the brain. 1t begins In
sidiously with changes in the mental
attitude Of the patient. From that
time the disease progresses, and the
patient becomes stupid and restless.

Peonle hear so much about health in

and to regard them largely as money

most all matters concerning the public
health are treated at institutes. Ill the

AT late meeting OF the Institutes the
question WAS raised as to what had been
