HUNTERS KILLED
LESS THAN 5000
VERMONT DEER
Such is the Estimate Of County
Warden Chase
Psi IN BENNINGTON COUNTY
Unless Other Sections Make Larger
Showing Number Killed Will
Not Double Total Of 1908

County Game Warden Harry Chase
taking into consideration the num-
Der of deer killed in Bennington
county during the recent open season,
makes the prediction that when the
reports OF the fish and game depart
ment have been completed 1t will be
found that between 1000 and $500
were killed Ia the entire state.
1t has been predicted that with the
restriction removed from killing doe
there would be twice as many deer in
1909 as in 1908 when il was permits
sibe to shoot only bucks This pre-
diction has not been fulfilled in Ben
nington county where 26l were re-
ported, ia buck and l47 doe, as
against lat year ago.
Warde9 Chase is of the opinion
that the reports from the state at
large will show that in no county
were the figures of 1908 doubled dur
ing the present season. In 1908 there
were 3S4 buck killed in Windsor coun-
ty, $40 in Washington, 269 in Rutland,
lg1 in Windham. If these figures were
doubled this year Windsor county
would report 76S, Washington, SOS;
Rutland. 53S; Windham, 3S2. The
warden is of the opinion that none of
these counties will reach the latter
figures. Bennington county fell 80
short of killing twice as many deer
as in 1908 and he believes that the
other counties will fall short of the
doubled figure in about the same
ratio. However should the counties
average to report twice as many deer
as in 90S the total would be less
than 1900 as 2205 were killed a year
ago.
In Bennington county 81 deer were
killed in Arlington. 30 in Bennington,
or rather by Bennington hunters
"a i'm Dorset, q IN Manchester, II in
Sunderland, 20 in Winhall, is in
SALISBURY, II in Sandgate, II in
Stamford, IL In Peru, II in Pownal, 8
in Readsboro, in Rupert in Sears
burg, in Glastonbury, 4 in WoOdford,
! in Landgrove. These figures are
from the official reports to the game
warden, but in most cases they appear
to indicate not the number of deer
killed in a town, but reported by the
hunters of that town regardless of
where they were killed.
Two Bennington county hunters,
Daniel Dunn of East Dorset and V.
S. Thayer of Readsboro have each
shot a buck every year since the open
season was established in Vermont.

retracted her previous deposition, in

was simulated; and Maurice Borderel,

assumes she desired to marry, testi-
fed to his absolute belief in her inno-

Several stormy scenes occurred dur

manufacturer, he had made hundred
times that amount from clients she
had brought him.

rapidly breaking down, and it is al
ready rumored that the trial may be
abandoned and new Investigation

the Libre Parole and the Patrie have

insinuations that the crime involved
a political plot for the destruction of

as they alleged, M Faure opposed the
