BY the arrest. they sent for Mr.. Ford to
explain Mr.. Thomas apparent change Of

Howe arrested the Williams brothers q
second time last Thursday.
Warden Ford sought q personal inter-
view with Commissioner Thomas ct
Stowe Thursday night and when the sec
ond chapter in the tale was unfolded to
him. the commissioner telephoned Mr..
Brown to drop proceedings; for, il the
Williams brothers were violating tbs
game laws by hunting in the state, they
were doing it with his permission.
The hunters consider their home to be
in Randolph--the residences OF their par
ents--though they work in Worcester,
" here Frank Williams is foreman in the
testing department Of the American Steel
and Wire company, with from 80 to 90
men under him; while his brother, John,
is weaver in the Daniels Worsted mills,
also in Worcester. Their father has q
farm in Braintree, to whose early settle
ment their family dates back. and last
year they did some work on this farm.
They supposed their hunting status to be
satisfactorily established and that they
bad taken all necessary precautions to
comply with the laws in communicating
with Commissioner Thomas before the
deer season opened.

chapter ! ID Deer story

Further returns from the hunters indi-
cate that the slaughter OF deer in this vi
cinity during the season Just past reached
total OF rs bucks and three does.
One doe was found with q broken leg
the first day OF the season at Riford
brook, and a second one was discovered
later on the mountain near Braintree 50
soon after it was shot that the carcass
was still warm. There were tracks in the
snow almost to where the doe lay, look
ing as though the shooter had ap-
preached near enough to see the nature OF
his quarry and then turned away. The
matter was reported to Game Warden
George Ford, but before he could start on
the trail light snow had fallen, obliter-
ating the tracks and marks Of the does

The kind OF s'sport'' the hunting sea-
son affords the defenceless animals that
are protected $50 days OF the year only to
be butchered the other six, was striking

brought into the square Monday. One
foreleg of the poor creature. had been
shot on last year and, thus wounded
and crippled, and suffering all the time,
of course, il managed some way to find
food enough to live. and the stump
healed over. This year il was shot again,
hind leg being badly torn by the bullet,
and, in an agony that can be imagined, il
hobbled through the woods until the skin
was worn on the stump OF the foreleg.

The Keene IN. H. Sentinel of Nov. IL
says:-
" BLACK Beauty was presented at the
opera house Monday evening before an
appreciative audience and scored a sue
cess. The presenting company was good
and the play was interesting throughout.
"The story OF the horse, Black Beauty
Is well known to all lovers OF animals as q
plea for kindness toward creatures. How
ard Wilding, her owner, loves the horse
best OF anything. He Is beset by enemies
and loses his money, meanw bile getting
into the bad graces Of young American
woman through lies told about him. Sir
George Walmsley, his enemy, plans to
get the horse by buying up WildinR's
debts and enter her in the Derby against
the wishes Of Wilding, who has decided
not to enter her and who prevents this at
the last moment. 'Wilding races her
himself and wins, beating Sir Georges
Rob Roy. sale Of Wilding's property
Is held and Sir George attempts to buy
Black Beauty, intending TO abuse her
and thus hurt Wilding. He Is thwarted
by the American girl. who buys worth
less stock belonging TO Wilding from his
brokers and thus gives him the money to
buy his horse himself. They then be-
come reconciled, the lies told Of Wilding
having been found out by the girl. The
horse is given by Wilding to an Ameri-
can jockey, who has cared for her and
who rode her in the Derby.
"Blnck Beauty herself was handsome
animal and her appearance on the stage
brought greetings OF admiration. She
was an intelligent animal and bowed her
thanks to the audience. The play was
presented we'll in every way and is much
better than prize plays are apt to be-"

rial hall, Wilmington, writes 1--WE had
the pleasure of seeing Black Beauty last
Tuesday night, and It gave the highest

Hunters 10 Trouble.

Hunters In Trouble
There was evidently a determination to
have the game laws rigidly observed in
this vicinity during the deer season just
past and so watchful an eye was kept on
hunting operations that there was grave
danger OF seeing ofiensos against the pre-
cioua code where none at least were in
tended.
When Frank and John Williams ar
rived from Worcester. Mass, on vaca-
ton from their work in that city. the va
cation being timed to include the deer
season, the possibility Of their being non
resident hunters was suggested and the
statutesson that point were reviewed
There was much wise wagging Of few
heads over the new and interesting sub
iect OF conversation this possibility pro
vided, bot that was rs far as the matter
propressed until Frank Williams shot one
1 Of tue finest bucks killed this year.
Then opinion crystalized into action
and State Game Commissioner H. q.
Thomas OF Stowe was notified by j. w.
Brown that two nonresident hunters
wers hunting here, their names not being
given. and Mr.. Thomas ordered their ar
rest. Mr.. Brown, who had been made
mporarily game warden to serve dur
ing the deer season, proceeded to put Mr..
!, Thomas, order into execution and the
Young men were accordingly appre-
hended.
Both this year and last year, before
coming home to hunt, the Williams
bros hers wrote to Game Warden George L.
Ford Of Braintree In regard to license,
and Mr.. Ford presented their case to
state Commissioner Thomas, who wrote
in reply that the boys had legal right to

Galeton, Pa.-For two or three days
Frank Mandl was peddling alleged
venison to his customers. 1t went
like hot cakes, for the price was rea-
sonable and one has not the oppor-
tunity to buy deer meat in the open
market every day.
The news reached the ears Of a
game warden at Bradford, and he
came in great haste. He went to
Mandrs premises with authority to ar
rest him for violating the game laws.
Upon finding Mandl, the warden
asked.
Have you been selling deer meat?"
"Sure / have" says Mandl.
do you know that you are liable
to arrest and a fine of $100?" again
asked the warden.
Mandl by this time was frightened
and admitted that he was guilty, but
declared he did not know he was do
ing wrong.
Let me see the head of the ami.

The Democratic campaiqn Fund.

The most ~far-reaching reform ever
wrought in American politics will have
been accomplished if Democratic man.
ayers succeed in raising an adequate
fund for this years presidential cam
paign from popular subscriptions and
from contributions limited to sums not
in excess of $4,000.
And the announced purpose of Mr..
Bryan and the Democratic national
committee to make public, before the
election, the name of every contribu.
tor of 500 or more, and we have an
absolute guarantee that the Democrat,
ic campaign fund of 1908, be it large
or small, will be all clean money.
The Democratic estimate of $780,
600 to 81, 100000 for the necessary and
legitimate expenses Of the campaign
contrasts sharply with the Republican
estimate of So, 600, 900, and with Treas
urer Sheldon's call for half a million
just as a starter.
