HE BUCK LAW.

It's the thing for the saving of the
deer and of men. Surely human life
iH worth considering by the law maxi
ers Of the state Of Michigan? 1t isn't
pleasant to be shipping dead hunters
from the upper peninsula 10 their
homes. 1t isn't a sight calculated to
give us any JOY We would first con-
slider me men, and we can save lot
OF them by making buck law. Let
only bucks be taken, and make the
fine heavy for the killing Of any other
kind. Then the hunter will certain
ly be- more careful because he will
have that law constantly in mind and
his actions will be controlled by il. He
viii wait, before pulling the trigger OF
lis gun, TO learn what he Is thinking
Of firing at. He will wait until the
object comes clearly into view, and If
II proves 20 be a man instead Of a deer
his hand will be stayed
1t seems to us that the saving of one
good man is worth lot TO Michigan.
We don't want credit for killing any
such citizen. We would rather lose
all the deer in the forest than to ac-
c.dentally take one human life. and
that's the feeling Of everyone interest
ed in this game subject. The state
OF New York has clearly demonstrate
cd the practicability Of the buck law
great decrease in the shooting of
men has occurred since 1t went into
effect and this with constantly in
creasing number OF hunters. There is
no reason why it should not act sim
ilarly in Michigan.
And the deer need saving as well as
the men Their number is fast grow
ing less. Each year their area of

Der OF hunters has increased TO an
army. Make the present season short
er' beginning no later than the first of
November Make the partridge and
rabbit season open with the first day
OF October. Get these deer hunters
separated from the bird and rabbit

ANOTHER EXPLOSION
 STARTLES RESIDENTS
 OF WASHINGTON AVE.

The person. who has been alarming residents in the West End at night through prorniscuous revolver prac- tice with lighted windows as his tar gets, is believed to have again jumped into the lime1ight last night near James street and Washington avenue. It was shortly after Il o'clock when a, telephone message was received at police headquarters in relation to a loud report heard, resembling the dis charge of a revolver. Sergeant James J. O'Nei1 was detailed to investigate. No clues were found as to the perpe- trator and the trouble was then as- cribed to the explosion of a gas me- ter. It was not believed to have been the noise caused by the pncturinf of an automobile tire.
 This morning representatives of the Gas company made a search through the neighborhood but were unable to locate any trouble. Their visits caus- ed considerable wonderment, partic- ularly among those ignorant of the disturbance last night.
