DEER SEASON ON,
HUNTERS DEPART
Season Lasts Until Both of
Month.
Thousands of People Now
in Northern Wisconsin
Woods Hunting Deer.

The open season for deer in the
state of Wisconsin began on Monday
morning of this week and will con-
tinue until the shadows lengthen
over the valleys and plains of North
ern Wisconsin on the evening ot
November 3Oth. During that period
no deer may be sure of its life for
thousands of hunters, veterans and
amatuers, will be out in the woods
with the one object in view, that of
bringing home the carcass of deer.
Hundreds, yes thousands, of peo-
pie, normally peaceloving citizens,
have taken to the northern wilds,
leaving all cares behind them and
with but the one idea, that of Staying
deer. 1t is safe to say that large
percentage of them will return empty
handed, while many will fill the cou-
pom on their hunting license.
The laws this year covering deer
are practically the same as they were
year ago. Only one deer may be
killed by hunter during the season.
The deer are said to be plentiful in
Northern Wisconsin woods this fall
and with light fall of snow hunting
will be good. The Bayfield, county
region will be the stamping ground
of thousands of hunters, many OF
whom will come here from points
within and without the state.
Hunters going into the woods
should wear plenty of colored cloth
ing to avoid being taken for deer.
Great care should also be taken a.
bout the hunting camp to avoid ac-
cidents.
| Z Persons who value life more than
the sport of hunting will keep within
the city and village limits during the
next twenty days.

William, that / would ever be film

These remarkable moving pictures

It took a great deal of persuasion
and $50, 900 in money to induce
Bernhardt to play "Camille" before
the cinematograph. but when she
finally made up her mind she enter
ed into the arrangeme nts with the
enthusiasm of a school girl. She
visited motion-picture shows in all
parts of Paris. spent hours in studi.
os, and talked with operators and
actors. In short while she was an
encyclopedia of Information about
the new art.
"Camille" was rehearsed few
times with the watch to get II
timed right, and then on set date
Bernhardt and her powerful com
pany went right through the per-
Torrance before the motion picture
camera. She played with wonder
ful fire and expressiveness. so emf
nent critics who saw the perform
ance declared. The result is 8
permanent record OF her genius.

Held at the Court House in
this City Tuesday
Much Business Transacted
by County Fathers in
all Day Session.

The annual meeting of the county
board of Bayfield, county was held at
the court house i'm this city on Tues
day of this week. At this meeting
practically all of the business of the
year is transacted and this makes the
meeting a very important one. Pre-
vious to the meeting several commit
tees were kept at work getting their
reports ready and business was tran
sacted with dispatch when the board
assembled Tuesday morning.
The principal business of the ses-
sion was the equalization of the coun-
ty tax among the several towns. This
usually terminates in quite a little
scrap before the board as was the
case this year. The committee on
equalization, which is composed of
George Barnes of Barnes, A. p. Stone
town of Washbarn, T. H. Robinson,
Ben Holm Lincoln and Erick Johnson
of Port Wing, saw fit to change the
figures as recommended by Income
Assessor VIM. Landraint. The equali-
zation of the towns of Lincoln, Oulu
and the city of Washburn was lower
ed while the towns of Barksdale,
Bayfield,, Drum. ond, s.H ughes, was
raised, the rest of the towns remain
ing at the figures recommended by
MIR. Landraint.
The following is the equalization

presented and filed. The report OF
the committee on roads and bridges
dealt with the condition of the roads
in the. county while the report of Mr..
Olson was of the work done and the
money expended.
A'petition for road in the towns
of Hughes and Iron River was turned
down as was also petition for road
in the town of Oulu.
A petition for an appropriation of
$500 for bridge in the town of Pill
en- was granted.
The town of Barksdale had voted
to bond the town for $4,000 to con-
struct bridge across Fish Creek to
take the place ofthe long bridge now
in use and asked that the county
board appropriate an equal amount.
The road committees asked that the
board grant them more time to 60 in
to the proposition and to make in
vestigations and this was granted and
the petition asking for an appropria-
ton was laid over. The town of
Barksdale threatens to take the
matter into court to COMPEL the
county board to appropriate their
share toward building the bridge.
A resolution was passed condemn
ing the present state highway system
and petitioning the legislature to re-
peal the act at the next session of
that body. The resolution was
drawn after the pattern of the Iron
county resolution and was presented
by A. P. Stone.
The county judge was granted a
raise in salary to $500 per annum
which is to include clerk hire, the
raise to take effect, at the beginning
of next term. l
The committee ON grounds and
buildings was authorized to make
necessasy changes in the court room
at the court house.
The salary of the Judge of the Srd
Municipal court at Bayfield, was fixed
at 5000 per annum.
All of the bills filed with the coun-
ty were acted upon.
At the evening session of the
board an executive session was held
at which road problems were discuss
ed behind closed doors. 1t is said
that members of the board were con-
sidering bringing charges of neglect
of duties against the present highway
commissioner with hope of having
him removed from Office by the State
Highway Commission. 1t is said that
the vote of the board stood 21 TO 4
in favor of bringing charges.
Before the close of the meeting
road Commissioner Eben Olson filed
his resignation with the board, the
same to take effect Jan. 1st, 1918,
and it was acted upon.
Another meeting of the board may
be held after the first of the year.

mite action was taken. Upon the request
OF J. s. Easby-Smith, attorney for the
boys, hearing was granted on the
question at the Franklin School Thurs

heard.
The boys testified that they had been
told by Allan Davis. principal of Busi-
ness High School, and by Col. Burton

dets, that because OF their high scholas-
tic standing they would not be COM

ments were made
