SQUIRRELS HURT THE CROPS
Maine Farmers Turn Upon Little Pets
Of Law and Want "Pesky
Things" Extermln ated.

Lewiston. Me.-The State Of Maine
is overrun with gray squirrels, &C.
cording to reports received at the
office of the Commissioners of Inland
Fisheries and Game Thousands OF
dollars worth of damage has been
done to the crops and in some places
whole cornfields have been completely
destroyed. Farmers are flooding the
office of Chairman Bracket of the
Fish and Game Commission with pc
titions asking for protectios.
Two years ago state law was
passed making It illegal to hunt and
kill gray squirrels. As result the
SQUIRRELS have multiplied rapidly and
have become tame and destructive.
Untn the special law was passed gray
SQUIRRELS were classed as game ami
mails" and each fall were hunted by
the gunners. The farmers who two
years ago petltioned the legislature to
pass law to protect tho little pets
now have their dander up and declare
they want every one OF the 'pesky
things" killed on In some instances
the farmers have defied the law and
with loaded guns have watched their
cornhelds from early day until late
at night
The Commissioners OF Inland Fish
cries and Game have promised TO do
everything I'm their power 20 have the
law repealed az the next session OF

Ship's Cats Disappear.

San Francisco.-A mysterious hoo
doc has descended upon the liners of
the Pacific Mail Steamship company
that ply between the Central Ameri-
can port of Ancon and this city. The
ships cats refuse to remain on board
and the crews are beginning to shiver.
On the last trips the cats disappeared
from the San Jose, Pennsylvania and
Peru. All the cats have been posted
as missing at about the same place
just as the vessels were passing along
Lower California. The sailors are be-
coming greatly alarmed and fear that
some tragedy awaits the boats. Many
of them declare they will not ship
again.

Sound, they barely escaped death on
a detached Ice foe. Finding them
selves separated from the pack and
drifting downward toward the open
water, which would have meant slow
starvation, the members of the hunt
ing expedition frantically explored the
boundaries of their temporary prison
for loophole of escape. Finally one
of the Eskimos discovered where by
utilizing small Ice pans as ferries the
party could escape to the solid pack.
That was one of the many close calls
that Whitney experienced.
Eskimo Endurance.
The author never ceased to marvel
at the endurance of his friends the
savages. Life with them is so stern
matter of nip and tuck that the Es-
kimos seem to have been hardened in
to almost superhuman strength and
stamina. Their pursuit of game is
never ending, and at times the life of
whole colony will depend on the
success of one hunting expedition.
Whitney saw his Eskimo COM
panions take chances with death
which were nothing short of sheer
madness; he found them ready to go
without sleep for three days on end,
eager to be on the move as long as
their legs would support them. They
cannot lean on others for support"
Whitney comments, "and none among
them is so poor that charity comes
his way. He must work il he Is to
live, and no man in the world works
so hard as the Eskimo or enjoys so
little of life's comforts and luXuries.

mere Land, where the author sought
the single reward of all that winters
isolation, musk OK. With a hunters
pride he devotes several chapters of
his book to the narration of this sue
cessful musk OK hunt. He knocked
down more of the beasts than he
could bring back to Greenland with
him and the trophies in heads and
hides that he secured amply rewarded
his months of waiting.
Says Little About Cook.
Whitney tells only in the baldest
outline of the return of Doctor Cook
to Anootok, reciting how three men.
gaunt as skeletons and dirty almost
beyond human semblance, came in
over the ice of Smith Sound pulling
their single sledge behind them. On
the subject of what Doctor Cook may
have told him as to his pole finding
the New Haven sportsman pursues
his consistent policy of silence. He
simply says that the Bushwick ex-
plorer stayed few days in Anootok
and then started southwark for a Dan
ish settlement.
On August 16, within few days of
a year after Mr. Whitney had been
marooned among the Eskimos, the
Roosevelt bearing the Peary party re-
turned from the north and the New
Haven man took ship on her for civil
ization. He transferred to the Jeanie,
which was met coming up at North
Star Bay, and after some desultory
hunting along the coast of Bafflns
Land, during which time the author
secured some coveted polar bear, the
return to the world was completed.

Several were under tho effects of
morphine or other anaesthetics. A
soloist sang, 81 Know That My Re.

patients was soothing and pleasant
although no special note was made
of the effect on the heart action
Those patients under the influence of
morphine began to awaken, without
fear or wandering of the mind
One patient, a dyspeptic unable to
take food, was found to be SO far in

Another, partly insane, became

There is every reason to believe that
the Republican state convention held

results in the campaign which the

its candidates at the general election

please all factions was adopted and
some of the wrinkles which were ex-
pected to cause considerable trouble
were ironed out without much trouble.
THE Republican architects who de-
signed the platform acted with con-
siderable wisdom when tho Warner

mentioned. In order to prevent fur

In other words. the political and econ

Bernard Partridge, who recent,

born in London, oct. II, 1861. His
father was a celebrated surgeon and
the son was an actor before he became
an artist His first work was in stain

painting, to which he devoted himself
for four years. The.l. in 1884, he took
to Illustrating and soon attained
prominence in his new branch of work.
He made his first contribution TO

came permanent member of the staff.
Mr.. Partridge began to draw political

Tenniel in 1901. 1t was he who was
mainly responsible for the introduce
ton of process work in place of the
old methods of wood engraving.
