Lumber Camp Deer Butchers.

In certain districts of the Adiron-
dacks the depredations of the lumber
camps on the deer supply are continu-
Gus, extensive and serious. The
crews are fed on venison taken in
close season by French Canadian en-
ployes of the camps. The number
of deer destroyed is very large. The
extent and nature Of the Illicit hunt
ing are recognized, but owing to the
peculiar conditions surrounding the
camps the game protectors have not
been able to cope with the evil.
1t is proposed by Adirondack resi-
dents and other interested persons to
ask at the coming session of the Leg
islature the enforcement Of a law to
forbid the possession of firearms in
the close season within the limits Of
the Adirondack park. 1t is believed
that this would go far to solve the
difficulty, for the lumber camp butch
ers could hardly use their arms with
out discovery, and If the penalty of
fine or Imprisonment with confisca-
tion of the illicit weapons were at
tached there would be need of only
very few convictions to put sum-
mary stop to the butchery Of deer for
feeding tree choppers.
1t Is true that under the law as it
now stands relative to nonresident
hunters something might be done to
check the ravages of the Canadians
in the North Woods; for the statute
forbids them from hunting unless
they shall have paid nonresident
license fee of $25 If they come from
Ontario or Quebec. None of these
hunters have any such license; and
every one of them is subject to
penalty for hunting without Ii
cense; but the protectors have not
been able to detect the violators; and
here as generally throughout the
State the nonresident provision has
been dead letter.-Forest and
Stream.

THE BRONCO BUSTER.
A Romantic Tale With an Unusual
Ending.

Buck Thompson was the champion
wild horse tanner of the West. He
feared no horse on earth. Buck loved
Miss Rose Brown, the beautiful teach
er of the Wildcat school, in District
23. Rose Brown admired the daring
Buck, but had not given him her
promise to be his. One day Buck and
she were in Yellow Dog, the principal
town in the Bowie district. AS they
stolled along the street a man came
out of the Dirty Dozen saloon and
stopped them.
"You Buck" he said, "I've got the
worst outlaw horse in the world out
here. I'll bet you s25 you can't ride
him."
Bucks face wore a disdainful
smile. He was waiting for just such
a chance to show his lady love his
skill.
"Tll take the bet" he said. "Whcn
shall I show you?"
"Now," replied the man, none other
than Red-Eyed Joe, sometimes called
Rip-Tailed Roarer.
"All right" said Buck "Me and
Miss Brown will walk out to where
the critter is and I'll ride him.
AS Buck and Rose walked along he
asked her once more to be his.
If you ride this outlaw horse I'll
marry you," she replied, picking her
teeth with her pearl-handled bowie
knife.
Buck was delighted. After half
an hours hard work the outlaw ami
NAL was saddled, and Buck cast
smile at his lady love.
Here goes" he said.
you'll git throwed," said Red
Eyed Joe.
Buck mounted the awful animal.
Red-Eyed Joe was right. Buck was
thrown three times and then he gave
it up.-Denver Post

mained near the lighter were coming

Nups
Richardson's head reappeared
above the surface just under the
stern, but the sharks had followed
him close. With cry for help the
great negro sank again, and then
came up almost in the same spot. It
was not the first time he had met
with sharks in their native element,
but he and everyone else felt that it
would be his last. Overhead Mr..
Renkell stood poised with his rifle.
But the death of one shark would
rot save the lighterman.
However, he tried 1t. He hit one,
and killed it, but the others were not
frightened away. Richardson, swim
ming like mad, had fetched" around
to the port side. One great eighteen
footer was so close to him that he
had turned on his back. Renkcll got
him with his rifle, too. But the
others were near.
Richardson was growing weary.

RABBITS IN ARIZONA.

Notwithstanding the bounty paid
for rabbit ears in this county and the
strenuous warfare that has been
waged against them all summer. the
conditions are still disturbing for
timid people. The rabbits are yet
quite numerous and one can never
tell what minute he will be attacked
by one. The other day rabbit ap.
peared in front of the courthouse and
circled around it to the west, disap-
pearing down First avenue. 1t was
suggested by one that the rabbit came
to bring his ears to the supervisors
for the bounty, thinking he could
raise another pair for his own use.
This theory will not be countenanced
by fair minded people. The rabbit
has many faults, but he should not
be called CRATER unless there Is
some actual evidence against him.
