 I two-year. old son of Charles Slid met with series of accidents las week. First the little fellow fell against a sewing machine and cut 2 gash over his eye. This had to hs dressed by a doctor. Second, few days after, as he was near a lchopping block, with other children. and some of the children playing with an axe cut off one of the little fellows fingers. With a bandaged head. and an arm in a sling, the young man presents the general ap- pearance of a misued football player.
 Union has game warden, who has warned home hunters and residents to follow carefully the law regarding hunting and trapping, inasmuch as those laws are to be respected, how. ayas inconsistent they may seem to sonse people. And as 8 precaution, to avoid unnecessary trouble. why not see to it as land owners, that all hunting on our premises cease, it would have a more desired effect for each man to be his own officer over his own land (as he isl Very little hunting has taken place this fali in the town; our own people are too busy about their own affairs to hunt. And believing that the game laws are made up by city men and sporting clubs. and for the latter's benefit, we feel. each and all of us just a trife like keeping a bit of a watch out for outsiders who wander this way with. out being duly and truly prepared, and like saying to all who come as strangers with proper credentials, get out, or up for trespassing you go.'' The state makes law protect ing deer. The beautiful creatures roam over our gardens and spoil them, and the state pays for the garden so destroyed Now, when the matter comes up in 1911. we want the law to still protect the deer, and we also will try to pass a by law in the town, should she state fail to protect deer, that all hunters. other than the own CT, on private lands be prosecuted. When the time comes to kill deer we can attend to our own individual acres, without the kind assistance of decreasing our population through the efforts of some one who ''meant we'll, but missed the deer.
