BAGGEO Q DEER
IN FRANKLIN co.
GEORGIA HUNTERS, ACCORDING
TO NEWSPAPER REPORT, WERE
SUCCESSFUL IN ONLY A FEW
DAYS IN THE WOODS.

According to the cambridge Search
light last week, the woods aroun
Carrabelle may be something of a
huntsmen's paradise, if conditions can
be judged by the following;
RETU RNED FROM HUNT.
Mr.. n. J. Smith returned last Sat
urday from a remarkably successful
hunting trip on the west coast of Flor
ida about fifty miles below Carrabelle.
The party was out a little less than
four days and during this short time
they brought down nine deer The
antlers of a young buck and hoof of
another brought down by Mr.. Smith,
and the largest of the kill, are on ex-
hibition in the show window of n. J..
Smith & Son on Broad street. This
buck was a two hundred and fifty
FOUNDER and the largest even seen by
any of the party.

COLO WEATHER
PREDICTED FOR
THIS MORNING
TEMPERATURE WILL BE DOWN
TO FREEZING OR BELOW THIS
NAILS DISPLAYED.

Another cold wave reached Pensa cola
during last night and the temperature
this morning should be freezing or
below. Cold wave signals were dis
played by the bureau yesterday on
advices from Washington and shortly
afterwards the first blasts of the pre-
dicted cold wave were felt.
Although the mercury did not get
below AZ degrees up to o'clock last
night, it will tumble lower than that by
this morning, if indications count for
anything.
The weather bureau further advised
that there would be a wide shifting oS
the winds, and from almost due east
the wind during yesterday whippeS
around to the northwest, just as the
message indicated, and there was not
much of a crowd ON the streets dur

of patrons, however, but outside pleas

The cold wave warning received
from Washington was as follows:

NATIONAL LOSS
MILLION A DAY
OF RESOURCES
ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIREc.
TOR OF MINES SHOWS THAT
AMOUNT TO BE MOST REASON
ABLE ESTIMATE.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.


Washington, Dec. ia national
loss of not less than $1,O0o,00o a day
is a reasonable estimate OF the pres
ent waste, in large measure unnec-
essary, of the mineral resources OF
the United States, Director John a
Holmes OF the Bureau OF Mines de-
clares in his annual report made pub
lie today.
AT the present increasing rate at
which we are using and wasting it,
our one supply of a number of these
resources viii be either exhausted or
largely depleted while the Nation Is
yet in its youth says Mr.. Holmes.
''Of the several lines OF mineral
industry III which this waste calls for
inve stigatlE1. only two-of the most
<esT eciaI urgency and importance-are
included in the urgent needs OF the
Bureau OF Mines; namely; the waste
and losses in coal mining and in Pc
troIeun operations. But the enact
ment of pending legislation in Con-
gress. providing for the establishment,
mainly in matchmaking states, of a
number OF mining experiment stations,
will render possible similar researches
looking to the lessening or preventing
Of waste
Probably the most notable accom-
plishment Of the Bureau of Mines has
bern the developing Of the movement
for greater safety and better health
conditions III the mining, metallur-
gtcal ami other mineral industries of
tie country and the gaining of the
cooperation of all possible agencies
IN behalf Of the movement.
In conducting it's campaign for
greater safety and efficiency in the
miriEe industries there has been
adopted the following general plan
OF cooperation between the National
Government and other large agencies:
IL Tha: the National Government
conduct the necessary general inquir-
les aad Investigations and disseminate
in such & manner as may prove most
effectl se the information obtained
and the conclusions reached; CD
that each State enact needed legisla-
ton and make ample provisions for
the prcpc~ Inspection of mining opera
TINS within It's borders; (3) that the
mine owners Introduce improvements
with a view to increasing safety and
re dCcing waste of resources as rapidly
as the p~acticability of such improve
n.ents is demonstrated; and (4) that
tho miners and mine managers CO.
operate both in making and in enforc-
ing safety rules ana regulations as
apidIy as these arc shown to be |
practiC & Bile The states, the miners |
AID mine owners, and other agencies, |
such as the mining and engineering |
societies, ere now showing a willing |
ness to cooperate with the National |

Wall Street Is
Again Open for
AcHVe 1radIn6
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.


New York, Dec. 1S.--Wall Street
came into its own yesterday. The stock
exchange, closed for nearly four and
a half months, exceoE for limited
trading in ponds during the past two
| weeks, was reopened at 10 o'clock this
morning for active trading in stocks.
One hundred and ninety-two ISSUES
were approved by the governors for
trading and though other issues were
barred, notably United States Steel.
activity on the floor Of the exchange
revived memories Of big days ten years
ago.
Opening trading in shares was re
summed on the stock exchange yesterday
after an interval OF III business days.
The tone of the initial trading was
strong but indicated a degree or eau
ton by buyers ana sellers The first
quotation was 100 shares of PittsburG
Coal which declined Is. This was
followed by transactions Of 100 10 300
shares in some Of the more active IS
sues, including st. Paul, Missouri Pa
eific Lehigh Valley, Reading, Amer!
can Can. Tennessee Copper and other
issues Of less Importance.
Among the marked gains at the out
set were "a points FOR Central
Leather; is points for Texas Com
pany; 10 1-2 points for Lehtgh Valley
points for Tennessee Copper, 6 Ia
points for American Can: . points
for Reading, 10 points for American
Beet Sugar and General Motors, 26 Is.
Largest Single item.
The largest single transaction was
block of 140O shares OF READING.
Among the early declines were South
ern Railway. common and preferred
which lost l Ia and 12 and North
ern Pacific which yielded ga. Second
airy prices showed some recessions
from the opening after the, first ten
minutes.
There was one feature however that
was not at all in keeping With the ac-
tivity with the big days OF more pros
porous times and that was the small
volume Of single trades. Most Of the
trading was in blocks Of 100 to 300
shares. and nucL, Of IL was I'm blocks
OF less than 100 shares.
