for $143 tor damage to crops by
wild deer, and the reports OF

come stories OF deer in large
numbers invading farm yards
and destroying garden crops

hand there is a heavy penalty
for the individual who kills a

heavier burden on the county
for protecting these timid Great

prodigiously, and it will not be

Knife Blade in His Nose

Paris, Mo-, Sept. IA big
knife blade, which Jim Riley
thought was in his side, was
pulled from his nose last Fri
day. 1t had been imbedded ia
MS flesh since his fatal fight
with Thomas Thompson. in Un-
ton township, eighteen months

I'd cut in the corner of one eye
Mr.. Thompson. He always
serted that the eye wound
was received first and that the
nife. blade, which was broken
#, was in his side. 1t could
ever be found, however, and
ither Riley nor the physicians
vho attended him ever expect
ed to solve 'the mystery of its
disappearance. From the time
of his recovery he was prriodi-
cally bothered with his nose
out never to any serious extent.
Last Friday something sharp
worked down into one nostril
until he could catch hold of it
with his fingers. Great was his
establishment when ir proved to
be the missing knife blade. 1t
was 81 inches long and about
three-fourths of an inch wide,
the wide or broken end coming
out first.
