ing of the 10th annual deer hunting
season in Vermont.
Deer have been said to be unusually
plentiful this year and the belief has
been general that the season would be
a good one. The crew and the few
passengers who went south on the first
car over the Bennington and North
Adams line this morning had an oppor-
tunity that will not come to many
hunters during the season. Two big
bucks and a doe were seen In the dug
way close to the track and the car was
stopped for five minutes while the an
imals played about in the vicinity.
One of the bucks. three years old and
weighing $50 pounds was probably shot
at Q o'clock by George H. Bigart. 1t
was a fine specimen with horns IL in
ches long and three spikes.
George Mattison killed fine buck

mountain in SALISBURY. He was ac-
companied by Huling Ellsworth, a

term of supreme court at Sandy Hill

separation between Lake and the
plaintiff. The motion was argued be
fore Justice Van Kirk. 1t is stated
that Lake and his present wife offered
the former wife $4,000 to settle the
case. She spurned the offer. Her de-
mand Is $50 a month for her daughter

ed to sign the degree and all title to

! PENDANT was not worth anything while.

claimed, he is worth 100000. The
court denied the motion without pre-
JUDGE toward renewing it If further
/ facts can be shown. Amasa J. Parker
of Albany argued the motion. with
Edgar r. Bracket of Saratoga and
Charles o. Pratt of Cambridge, on the
defense.
