tudes. We dared not move nor even to
whisper, lest 1t betray our presence.
We must maintain a-posption In which
we could shoot without making a War1-
ing sound. SO we lay and watched.
and listened, and ached until perhaps
1 o'clock.
1 have rarely heard a more welcome
sound than was that peculiar whistling
snort of buck, not far away down the
path in the woods. Then came the
sharp, spiteful little STAN of foot
as the commander brought his harem
to attention for a minutes investiga-
ton. | could imagine the whole herd
sitting the air with nose and ear, to
catch trace of their arch enemy. Then
came the patter of feet, more In keep
ing with creatures the size of mice
than deer. Then the leader rose in
sight, not thirty feet away, and halted
his nose high in the air and his ears
bent forward. Had he raised his eyes
but a little he would have seen the
whole treacherous plot for his destruc-
ton; but neither the trusted leader nor
his confiding followers thought of such
an unheard of precaution. On they
came, directly beneath us.
We had agreed that the captain
should shoot the leader, and l which
ever offered the best mark. 1t was al
most as light as day, and they were
beautiful in their unSuspecting 1gnO-
rance, but we were there to save the
corn, not feast our eyes. Two rifles
shattered the silence, and all but two
of the graceful creatures darted like
shadows back down the path.

trade wind was flowing up the great
river, steady as the tide from the ocean
600 miles away. The rustling of the
corn and forest leaves were the only
sounds near by. Bats, always present
on the Iowlands, gradually disappeared
as we got above the mosquito line. The
cries of the wading birds, and the
hoarse believing of the elephantine
frogs in the mill pond, could be heard
only at intervals and then but family

run any more. The race was given to
the terrapin, though all the animals
wondered how he managed it. But he
kept still and never told.
ut was easy enough, however, be-
cause all the terrapin's friends looked
just alike, and he had simply posted
one near the top of each ridge to wait
until the rabbit came in sight, and
then climb over and hide in the long
grass When the rabbit came on he
could not find the terrapin, and so
thought the terrapin was ahead, and
if he had met one of the other terra
pins he would have thought it was the
same one, because they were so much
alike"

$4,000 payable at sight TO himself, and charged
to the of his fathers estate, which he said

not give him any money, but turned over 10 him Il
rassbook on the strength of which, it is charged
that he obtained $3.50 from Elmer $. White law
yer, of No. II Court street Brooklynn. There was
no record of a deposit In the passbook, and the
bank officials say they learned that the draft was
not good.
The police records show that Bondhus ar
rested on April 20. 1907. a charge of swindling
but was discharged. The record shows that on
August Il, 1905 he sentenced to one year in

CRY FINANCES

A special meeting of the city coun.
Gil was called by Mayor Blewett
Monday. No official business was
transacted. The matter Of making
an appropriation for the coming year
for bonds which the city has taken
care of was discussed at length and
the creating of fund to meet these
bonds will be necessary City bonds
running for the past ten years aggre-
eating s2s, 600 will have to be taken
care OF in some manner, as no pro-
vision has been made to meet them
when they fall due. altho provision
is made for payment Of the yearly in
terest. At the next regular meeting
the matter OF a tax levy for all pur-
poses will come up. It is probable
that a special election will be called
for the issuing OF some seven thous.
and dollars Of warrants, with which
to provide for additional water sup
ply. 1t Is believed advisable to ex-
tend the payment for this necessary
improvement over period Of time,
rather. than compel the taxpayers to
meet the extra expense In one year.
