1000 DEER SLAUGHTERED
Protected 10 Years, They Were Tame
Their Deaths Bring State $4,000

Boston, Nov. 2S.-The killing OF
deer in five western counties Of the
state for six days, after a decade Of
protection, ended Saturday night with
approximately 1000 deer slaughtered
and probably many others wounded
and left to die in the woods. About
$500 in license fees will go to the
state from the weeks report
Farmers throughout the open zone
very generally posted their lands
against the hunters and voiced pro-
tests against the killing off OF the
deer, which had become tanned
through many years of protection
The occasional appearance OF
wounded deer fleeing through the
center Of towns or taking refuge in
farmyards added to those protests.

Principal Grievance Of Men Against

Leather Whip.

Rio Janeiro, Nov. 2S-The city
awoke yesterday morning with feel
ing of relief. The warshlps OF the
feet we're again in the hands of the
government which Saturday evening
sent officers to take command. Trains
from the interior brought back fam
lilies which had fed in fear OF the
bombardment OF the mutineers and
the newspapers rejoice that the peo-
pie had been delivered from. what
they term nightmare. Several of
the newspapers publish articles on
"The heroes OF the rebellion" for the
purpose Of creating a sympathetic at
mcsphere.
one OF the sailors on the scout ship
Bahia denied many Of the reports
concerning the crews Of the various
ships taking part in the revolt and
the differences among the men which
were said to have arisen. All OF
them. he said, were obedient to the
orders issued by the bat.leship Minas
Geraes and Jean Candida, the leader,
was loved and respected by the en-
tire navy At no time did the mutt
neers have the least fear Of the dcs-
troyers. which would not have fired
upon their comrades Nor did they
have any fear of the fortresses which
could have been silenced by the big
guns Of the warships.
The principal grievance, adjust.
ment of which the men demanded
was the employment by the officers OF
leather whip. and the stories Of the
punishment inflicted upon the men
as told In the newspapers show this
to have been a veritable torture. jour
nalists here are astonished at the
comments on the rising which have
appeared In the FOREIGN newspapers
considering them too hasty.

liam Miner OF Grahamvllle has estab-

shot and killed three by design then
slew n fourth by accident.
AS he tells the story, he noticed
bear tracks near his home and took
up the trail. which led him to aiedge

smoke fire and waited. In FIVE min.
utes out shambled a big black bear.
He fired and killed Il instantly.
Within a period OF twenty minutes
two other bears came coughing from
the rocks and each was killed. Then
Miner decided to crawl into the cave
In search Of cubs. The cave was mar.

he could not use his gun but drew a

For Good Roads

The legislature has an opportunity
to make q record for Itself which will
meet with the approval Of progress
i've people generally. by passing the
bill introduced by Mr.. Rabbit OF
Rockingham, calling for an appropria-
ton OF 100000 yearly for permanent
road building. The bill does not
change in the least the plan OF help
ing the towns which want to be help
cd 10 the extent of the special apprc-
priations which they vote at the
March meeting but it raises the lin
il OF possible state help for each town
from $500 10 $1,000. The natural re-
suit would be for the larger towns,
which are situated mostly on the
trunk lines OF the state, to take adj
vantage Of the $1,000 limit, so that we
should have a large increase in the
amount OF money available upon the
trunk lines in the larger towns from
this feature OF the law.
Other towns oil over the state will
vote as they choose, but probably this
would not vary very much from the
sums already being voted, so that the
net result will be large surplus
from this appropriation that will not
be called for by the towns that are
willing to match the states appropri-
alton dollar for dollar The hill pro-
yidos that this surplus can be used
on highways that are OF special pub
lie importance, which naturally
means trunk ines. under any agree
ment that the state commissioner
may deem wise 70 make with the
towns in which the highways are To-
Gated
Another section provides that the
state commissioner shall have auth
ority to employ such aid as he may
deem necessary in carrying out the
provisions of the act, which would
give opportunity for the employment
OF engineers and expert builders on
all the larger Jobs Of state work in
/ the dlsmretion OF the commissioner
The state commissioner would be
able to concentrate good sum OF
money upon the trunk lines OF the
state, helping such towns as are In
hard straits financially by making
such arrangements with them as
would seem reasonable under the cir
| cumstances. For instance the towI
of Bolton. In Chittenden county Ia:
a long stretch OF unsatisfactory road
which is on the main line between
Montpelier and Burlington. The towr
is small and comparatively poor, ant
unable to put this highway In frs

II can reasonably. and to nut all tn,

the commissioner could supplemtn

exorbitant MILEAGE Fees

The matter OF economy is one that
always receives attention at every
session OF the legislature rs IL should
II a proper distinction is made be-
tween real economy that Is a wise
outstanding OF resources and the false
economy that really is penuriousness
Various propositions have been ad-
yanced during the present session re-
garding ways and means whereby the
states revenues may be guarded from
extravaganza. One opportunity for
the practice of economy that has not
been suggested thus far is that OF a
reduction OF the exorbitant mileage
fees granted to members
At the present time the state al
lows ten cents mileage TO and from
the state capital. The members have
just voted themselves mileage both
ways for the Thanksgiving rectss.
Two years ago the same mileage was
allowed. also mileage one way for the
Christmas recess. This brought the
total expenditure for mileage to
about $4,000.
Two years ago the General Assem-
bly, increased the salaries OF members
from three dollars to four dollars a
day. With the increased cost Of liv-
ing probably four dollars Is none too
much although the members were sub
iected TO merited criticism for voting
this increase TO themselves. The
members are entitled to fair compen.
sation. Early In the history Of the
state members received one dollar n
day and half a day. but expenses
were small a century ago compared
with those OF 1910.
Il seems to be reasonable propo.
sition that the compensation OF mem.
hers shall be made In salaries and In
salaries alone, a reasonable allow

ance. In 1924 an allowance OF six
cents for mileage to and from the
capital was established. This was
/ later raised to ten cents. This rate
was established In stage coach days
before railways were employed at AL
for the transportation OF passengers
Il Is q matter OF common knowledge
that those persons who own mileage

Those who rent miloagos or purchas,

MORAN KNOCKS OUT NELSON
Bri,on Has Advantage at All Times
and Wins in nth Round

San Francisco, Nov. 2S-Battling
Nelson will no longer menace the
lightweight belt. For the first time
in his fighting career the Durable
Dane" a shell Of the once great pu-
gilist, was knocked out Sunday be
yond all dispute. Owen Moran, a
sturdy lad from Birmingham, Eng,
did the feat in the presence OF one
of the largest crowds that ever as
sembled at glove contest In San
Francisco. Moran knocked Nelson
out in the 18th round OF schedu ed
20round event, his victory being
clean. But he was compelled to drop
Nelson FIVE times in this round, for
despite the force OF the Britons
right-hand punches on the point OF
the chin, the wonderful fighting spir-
1t Of the Dane was ever present.
One second after the final count
had been tolled of. and Referee Ben
iamin Selig, above the din, shouted,
You're out Moran wins" Nelson
was on his feet, loudly importuning
the referee to permit him to contin-
ne. Moran from the first tap OF the
gong, proved himself complete mas
ter OF the situation. There was not
one round Of the II that could be
credited to Nelson. The Dane was
always the aggressor, his evident IN
tention being to force Moran to fight
al close quarters. In this he was ac-
commodated but the fight was scarce
" two rounds old before Moran show
ed that he, too, could fight In the
"pattler's" fashion. Round after
round. Moran would step back, side
step and dance around the aggressive
Nelson, all the while placing straight,
forceful punches to the jaw and head.
He seldom suffered punch In return.
The nth and final round opened with
neither fighter perceptihly In dis
tress.
Moran, who apparently had been
biding his time for finishing blow,
got his chance when Nelson, with
bowed head. rushed at him. Moran
sent his right forward, catching Mel
son flush on the jaw. Down the
Dane went for the count OF nine. Mel
son tottered to his feet and Moran
stood back, waiting for him. Again
the Brltons powerful right shot out
and Nelson dropped to the mat once
more. The performance was thrice
more repeated, Moran each time
reaching Nelson's unprotected jaw
with his right. With the last knock
down the referee and the timekeeper
counted the fateful 10.
When Referee Sellg declared Nor
an the victor. Moran turned a hand
spring into the arms OF his seconds
and dashed from the ring without O
mark to indicate that he had been
in n fight. 81 always knew ! could
