Bell and the love for the child was reciprocated by them.
 Everything was running along smoothly at the Bell home and yes terday moon the mothar of the. child, Mrs. Hattie Willis, decided to go to Nashville, Tenn, to visit relatives for few days. She de- parted from the city on noon Cot ton Belt train, little thinking that her baby girl would be taken away from her brothers home by an or der of the court on the same day.
 Only few days ago Mrs. Willis and her relatives, fearing that they might have further trouble from the babyss father, decided to secure adoption papers for little Mary, and Judge James Gould, at the mothers request, permitted H. B. Bell to legally adopt the child in the Jef- ferson probate court The issuance of the writ at Little Rock yester- day was great surprise to Mir. and Mrs. Bell, as no intimation had been made that Willis would at tempt to gain possession of the little girl again.
 The first information of the is suance of the writ came to Mir. and Bell last night, when Sheriff Phil pot went to their home and took possession of their little girl. MT Bell kept the wires hot all night in an effort to reach the mother, en route to Nashville, with telegram. i She will probably receive one of i the messages today and will return to this city mme1;ately In the meahtime MT. and Mrs. Bell have :; employed Attorney Austin and Dan aher of this city, to represent them. ! and they declare that they will l spend all they have to prevent the father from taking little Mary from them An effort will be made to- 1 uoy III tllG lHdloSiS SOul ct Llllle l Rock to have the case continued . until the mother arrives here. MT. Bell was accompanied to Little Rock by Mr. Nimmons, his en- i ployer, who declares that he will stay by him in the legal fight
 On the otherhand, Willis, backed up by his mother. who is said to be the possessor of millions of dol lars. asserts that he will fight the case to the end to get his daughter [ again. Senator Jeff Davis stated
 last night that he would take the case to the United States supreme court if necessary. It is authori- lively stated that Davis has been paid $5,00O as retainer fee by the wealthy grandmother of the girl.
 A lively conflict over the child is oromised in the courts. MT. Willis says in his petition that he is
 moral man and an eminently proper person to care for, educate and train his daughter. It is said that the father of the girl conducts home for the liquqor cure at 1n- dianapolis.
 Senator Davis has employed Attor- ney Creed Caldwell of this city to as >ist him in the case

WHEN WE BEGIN TO KILL OFF
OUR DEER.

There are some very interesting
questions concerning the presence in
this state of the ornamental, and at
present inedible, deer. It is estimated
that there are now about one thousand
in Connecticut and that by 1911 there
will be ten thousand. Nobody is al
lowed to kill them. They have bet
ter chance to live and increase than
have ordinary CATTLE and they seem
to be making good use of their
chances.
What are we going to do about
them? If they are to be allowed to be
always at large and under protection,
that settles it. Their occasional dam
age will be paid for, as is the damage
done by wandering dogs, and, like the
dogs, they will become a feature of
every day life and, perhaps, of occa-
sionaI death. The outlay for deer
damage is already a considerable
item. In the neighboring town OF
Glastonbury one item of one hundred
dollars has been paid for the hurt they
nav . NOllC W q SlllS3lS VI SAA"NANa 1922
they preferred peach trees even to the
seductive cabbage plant or the shining
turnip tops.
Farmers are asking If this pays. we
confess to a hope that these wild crea-
lures will be preserved indefinitely. 1t
is a purely sentimental hope, for We
must admit that venison is not in it a
10 CnnoH n111t
ton. But there is something agreeable
about the thought that these shy and
seldom visible fellow jewellers in Con-
necticut are living with us even as
they lived with the first families; 1t
tends to brace the aristocracies. But
if there is to be a killing, then the
sooner the better. In the first place,
there will be fewer to kill, and the
cruelty will be 50 much less, and, in
the second place there will be 50 many
.ess chances for the loss of human
| lisa!
The fact is, and it may as we'll be
acknowledged at once, that when the
people Of Connecticut get a free
chance to hunt deer, 1t will be adyisa-
BILE for those citizens who value their
own earthly careers to take to their
cellars and stay under ground. The
i air will be full Of stray bullets, death
win Turk behind every bush and In the
hands of every hunter. We cannot
take to the woods, for that is the
( worst Of all, but we can go and hide
behind some bullet-proof formation
! and wait until all the deer and most Of
4 their hunters are exterminated.-
