$4,000 DEER SHOT
DURING SEASON
Estimate hade by Chief Game
Warden John Shots.
BARRON LEADS COUNTIES
Milwaukee Is Second With 4os-7, o4o
Are Shipped During the Last
twenty Days of November
Others Killed by Settlers.

Madison.-During the last 90 days of
November. $4,000 deer were killed by
hunters in Wisconsin forests.
This estimate. made today by Chief
Game Warden John Sholts, is based
on the records in his Office supple
mented by the judgment of expert
enced men respecting the number of
deer killed by settlers and others, but
not shipped. The total number of
deer shipping during the hunting sea
son was 7,040.
The game warden's department has
kept a record of the names and resi-
dences of those who have shipped deer
and finds that the largest number of
successful hunters came from Barron
county, where 557 procured their IL
censes. Milwaukee county comes next
with 407, then Douglas with 1872. Chip
pewa 1853, st. Croix 1876, Wood 1876 and
Ashland 1874. The tags returned show
that 103 deer were killed by residents
of Dane county.
Deputy Warden c. S. Little of STAN
ley kept the records of the deer killed
and shipped by hunters in his terri
tory, chiefly in the counties of Clark
and Chippewa. and also record of
the sex and found that out of total
of 12S accounted for 6 were does and
~ bucks.

clumsy, even ungraceful. 1t Is a pity
to push the question of novelties so
far as this. Breitschwanz is an ideal
material for tight fitting skirts and so
is ermine or musquash, but sable-no.
One of the most effective evening
wraps of the present season is that
known as the Manon It is almost an
exact copy of the famous cloaks worn
by the unhappy Manon Lescaut.
These wraps are very voluminous
and always made of the richest ma
terials, such as chiffon velvet, brocne
satin, embroidered taffeta, etc. The
most important feature is the i'm.
mense hood. Some of the newest mod.
els have hoods which look very like
those OF the genuine Irish peasant
cloak
For young girls these Manon cloaks
are ideal In pale rose chiffon velvet
with Innings of rose satin and white
chiffon they are exquisite, and on
leaving a theater or concert hall the
large hood may be daintily pulled over
the head. ] have seen the same cloak
made of sea green liberty satin. with
Innings OF silver tissues and a small
collar of ehinehilla. This poetic ha-.
mony OF color was quite delicious.

Income Tax increases.


Individuals and corporations in the
taxes this year. This is an increase of
$601739.14 over the amount of pay
ments last year.
The state tax commission in an
nouncing these figures, claims that the
increase is due largely to greater
prosperity in the state during the past
year and to a better understanding of
the law by the citizens.
OF the total increase to be collected
this year, $1SS, 77788 more will be paid
by individuals as compared with last
years collections, and S412,961.26 more
will come from corporations.
Last year the income tax collected
from individuals in the II counties Of
the state aggregated $1,10S,7 07.02, as
compared with $1,297, 1880 to be col
lected this year. The corporations
paid s2.3S5, 1850 last year, as COM
pared with s9,494, 1882 this year. The
largest single increases are in Mil
waukee county, where the total in
come taxes collected last year were
$1.479, 63S16, as compared with $685.
024.15, an increase of $345, 1850.
There are six counties in the state
where over 100000 will be collected
in income taxes-Milwaukee, Doug
las, Dane, Kenosha, Racine and Win
nebago. Each of these counties has
a large city within its borders, where
the bulk of the tax is collected. Dane
county will pay total income tax this
year OF $113, S4513; Douglas county,
SITS, 1870: Kenosha, $149,23S.79; Mil
waukee, s1.S25, 02415; Racine. $685.
1862, and Winnebago. S114,578.17.
The entire expense of collecting this
tax of over s4,000,000 is paid by the
state. 1t will cost the state about $780,
900 this year. The state receives 10
per cent. of the tax collected, the coun-
ty 90 per cent. and the locality where
the tax is returnable 10 per cent. In
spite of the reduction of the corpora
ton rate on small companies made by
the last legislature, the total amount
of corporation tax to be collected
shows large increase. The legisla-
ture also passed a personal property
offset" so that the actual amount or
money collected from the income tax
source this year viii be larger than
last. The superintendent of taxes
follows:
The total income tax to be collected
from Milwaukee county this year
amounts of 81, 5,024.15. OF this s579,-
24416 is from corporations. The total
amount collected from the county, last
year was $1,479, 638.16.
