A DYNAMITE BOMB
BOYS LOVELY TOY

New York. Feb. 1S.-"Well. Well!
What has little Johnnie gote" in
quired Joseph Hart when, on return
ing to his home at No SO Manhattan
street. he found his fiye-year-old son
glad with delight as he displayed a
section of lead pipe about six inches
long. "It'th full NV tuffin,' too, he
announced.
Hart, who is a mechanic, examined
the "stuffing" and then almost drop
ped the pipe from fright. II looked
like a bomb. Johnnie said he found it
near his home a week ago and since
then had kept it hidden under the bed.
Hart took it TO the West One Hundred
and Twenty-fifth street police station
and Inspector Robinson was summon
ed from the Bureau of Combustibles.
He made cautious examination and
said the pipe was bomb containing
probably enough explosive to have
wrecked the Manhattan street house.

Deer Brought to Skowhegan.

Thus far this season about 10 deer
have been brought over the Somerset
Traction company's line. This is only
about one-half the number that was
brought down the line last season at
this time. Last year there were about
90 brought down for the whole sea-
son. Conductors on the line claim
that probably there will not be more
than 80 this year 1t will all depend
on the weather Then again it is re-
ported that the deer are scarce in the
vicinity of Moxie and Moosehead
lakes. One guide reported that this
summer and fall he has found 40 dead
deer in the woods. He stated that
the cause of their death was probably
due to the dry season, they having
been afflicted by disease, A lumber
man stated that he travelled FIVE days
this fall through the woods around
Moosehead Lake and saw only two
| live deer.
