Vermont peer Law Changed.

Montpelier, vt.-Under a suspension
of the rules, both houses OF the YER
mont legislature has just passed an
act relating to forest fires and the gov
ernor later affixed his signature. The
bill provides that in times OF extreme
drouth or danger the governor may
suspend or postpone the open season
for deer hunting. The bill also pro-
vldes that il the governor thus acts
hunting of small game or birds Is also
prohibited during the postponed sea-
son under penalty Of 500 for each In
fraction. II also provides that If the
governor exercises authority In this
matter he shall some time during the
year appoint an open season for deer
of six full working days, The reason
for this rush legislation is that the
six days open season for deer in Yer
mont begins next Sunday at midnight
with every forest in the state a tinder
box owing to the prolonged dry wealth
er.
Gov. ,Prouty after signing the bill,
issued proclamation posponing the
deer hunting season from Oct. 25 at
midnight to Nov at midnight. II. 6.
Thomas of Stowe, state fish and game
commissioner who was in consulta-
ton with the governor on this subject,
will at once notify every game warden
in the state of the change in date for
the open season, and will have the same
posted in every town and city In the
state within 4S hours. Some hunters
have already gone into the woods In
anticipation of the open season COM

Cut in Meat Prices.

Chicago. Wholesale prices OF
dressed beef cuts have been lowered
from l to l 1-2 cents pound, while
the market for fresh pork products
is reported to be in a uemoralized con
dition, with stocks accumulating and
consumers refusing t. pay the high
prices asked by the p ckers.
Reluctance to buy high priced beef
products and the fact that the temper
ature has been too high for the in
creased consumption Of heat produc
ing food are the influences which
forced packers to lower prices.
While the consumption of beef anC
pork has been far below normal IL
the last few months, the receipts ot
cattle and swine have exceeded las
years figures and makers have fount

Ladrons Islands No More.

Washington.-After several years of
hard work, the people of the Ladrone
islands have succeeded in having the
name of their specks in the Pacific
ocean changed to Mariana. The
change was made by order of Acting
Secretary NewbeTy of the navy de-
partment, under whose exclusive juris-
dlction that part Of the insular pos
sessions lie.
The people object to the name La
drone (loafer. or beggar) because, as

and thrifty.
The name, Mariana, was agreed
upon by the board on geographic
names several years ago, b+-t success

Most Destructive Storm.

Manila.-Belated reports indicate
that the storm of Oct. IL in the Caya'

hundreds of animals and houses were
swept away.
