MAN
KILLS DEER WITH
AXE WEDNESDAY

Portland, Me-, Nov. 12.--It is not
necessary to go far away into the
dense Maine woodlands to kill a deer.
At least this is the way Messrs. c.
Frank Colley and Deputy Sheriff John
Williams of West Falmouth feel today.
Messrs Williams and Colley who had
been engaged in making repairs ON
the covered bridge over the Presump-
scot River, known as Lambcrts bridge,
IN West Falmouth, yesterday were
picking up their belongings prepara-
tory to leaving for their homes at 5
in the afternoon, when Mr. Colley
heard loud splaShing from beneath the
bridge.
He investigated and found that there
was some large animal swimming in
the river and attempting to make a
landing on the bank of the stream.
Attracting the attention of Mr.. Will
liams, he fastened to the other side of
the stream with hammer in hand,
while Mr.. Williams, Selling up a car
penters axe, remained on the opposite
side. The deer attempted to land sew
eral times on Mr.. Colley's side of the
river but was frightened off by Sec
ing the man near by.
Mr.. Williams secreted himself and
awaited developments. Suddenly the
deer changed his course and swan
rapidly, although laboriously, ACROSS
the river. giving evidence of being
tired after nearly an hour in the wa
ter, Mr.. Williams was surprised to
find that the deer was making direct
~ for him. there being a kind of shelf
of land oVerhanging the river bank
which would afford an easy landing
for the tired animal. For this the deer
headed and in a moment had Chamber
ed out upon the bank. Like cat, Mr..
Williams leaped from his hiding place
and dealt the deer crushing blow
with the AK on the head The animal
dropped to the ground without a
struggle and expired.
1t was a fine specimen of doe and
was we'll worth the effort put forth by
the two carpenters in securing her.
The doe weighed just 102 pounds.

to record the Receipts and Disburse-
ments OF the Treasurer, which book In
our opinion is absolutely necessary,
same being now entered into Ledger
directly from statement furnished by the
Treasurer. AS before advised due to lack
of information at hand in regard to
outstanding warrants at the beginning
and end of our audit we could not apply
all warrants drawn, against all warrants
shown as paid in the Treasurer's state
ment in bulk and arrive at the same total
as shown by the Treasurer as paid, no
record being at hand to show in detail
warrants paid, not withstanding this
however, we have verified the various
balances to the credit of the funds with
accounts submitted by the Treasurer,
and which balances were also confirmed
as correct by the Cashier of the Mer-
chants Bank of your city, at April l1th'
1914.
The following balances OF cash in
bank to the credit of the various funds,
are subject to reduction by the out
standing warrants, such as are shown in
Exhibit No. 16:-
City Fund. d......................,:.S 500 52
School Building Funds 400 Ol

Bond Fund ,......................S | 300 SO
Municipal Imp, Bond Funds .S31 443 40
Firemens Fund. 133 %
Sinking Bond Fund...........S 6o5 6O
In our opinion the only correct way
to keep the Treasurer's account and the
outstanding warrants would be as fol-
lows:- Charge Treasurer with all
funds collected or turned over to his Gus
tody and credit source of Revenue. In
drawing warrants charge account or fund
from which drawn and credit aOut-
standing Warrants" when the Treasurer
renders his statement charge the war
rants returned to "Outstanding War
rants" and credit Treasurer, outstanding
warrants will therby always show the
warrants unpaid. Do this for each diff
ferent Fund in order to know the OUT
standing Wa rants of each fund.

A largely ATTENDED and enthusiastic
meeting was held Thursday night at
the City Hall by the Waveland-Bay ST.
Louis Yacht Club, with President Jno.
K. Edwards in the chair.
This was one of the best meetings of
the organization yet held and served as
an earnest of the good will and proper
spirit of the community and parties in
terested.
The subject of purchasing building
and grounds for the location of the club
was presented and discussed at length,
different locations mentioned; and it
was decided that such a club building
and grounds should not be located too
far from the central portions of the city;
that the building must be located on
shore, with a long pier on the beach
front, and land in the rear of sufficient
area for golf links.
The chair appointed Building and
Grounds Committee, to secure loca-
ton, options, etc., and to report at the
next meeting, which will be held at the
City Hall on Thursday night, June
25th.
The Bylaws Committee was also
appointed, and, if possible, to report at
the next meeting.

A vote was taken on the proposition
whether member should be a stock
holder rnot, resulting in the affirmative
hence no one will be eligible to mem
bership unless first becoming a stock
holder. Dues were also fixed at 81 90
per month. This was necessary since
| it will require so much revenue to
| maintain the club.
Bay St. Louis and Waveland, sum-
mer and winter resorts, have long felt
the want of social center of this kind
and the club, as already organized and
incorporated, under the laws of the
State of Mississippi, will fill this void.
No organization in Bay St. Louis has
started under such favorable auspices.
At the meeting Thursday there was
already subscribed over $500 and over
nifty members secured. For the next
meeting it is expected the $1,000 mark
will have been reached as a whirlwind
campaign for subscriptions is planned.
