Had Boosted No Warden Dared
Take Him-Other Parties in
Custody for Killing Deer.
Jorsensen's Report.

The following is a detailed report re-
commissioners from Chief Warden Fred
E. Jorgensen, Of Haywood, Aroostook
county:
Having received complaint on the
18th instant that someone in the vi
cinity Of Stockholm was chasing a
F. Sharp of Caribou to go with me. On
arriving there on the 18th we learned
that several parties were in the woods
between Stockholm and Van Buren,
hunting for anything they could get
sight of and that the parties were sup
posed to have come from the vicinity of
Van Buren,. Inasmuch as there ap
peared to be several hunters, instead
of one, as expected, Mr.. Sharp and l
each took an aid and started in differ
ent directions, my aid and myself TAX
ing the track of two parties who were
following cow moose, and Mr.. Sharp
and his assistant taking the snowshoe
trail of some other parties. After fol-
lowing the trail of the COW moose for
about ten miles, we found the poachers
had given up the chase. | afterwards
received information that this same
moose had been chased for two days
up to the place where we took up the
trail.
Three Men Appear
We followed the mems tracks until
evening and having six miles to go to
camp to join Mr. Sharp and his aid de-
cided not to go farther into the woods
that night. Mr.. Sharp and his COM
panion arrived at camp just ahead Of
us and reported they had found a trail
where deer meat had been hauled out
on hand -sleds toward Van Buren,. We
decided to start on this trail after get
ting something to eat. We had hardly
finished eating when we saw three fell
lows coming down toward the camp on
snow shoes, followed by two dogs. the
man ahead carrying rife. They start
ed to go by the camp, but as soon as
we saw they were not going to stop,
Mr.. Sharp and | went out and headed
them off. 1 asked them what they were
doing in the woods with a rife at this
time of the year and they said they
were exploring for cumberland. Motto
ing blood and deer-hairS on their snow
shoes, told them that if l was not
very much mistaken they were explor-
ing for moose and deer. | asked them
to come into the camp as I wished to
know their names, etc; they said they
could not stop as they had a long way

the carriers left the postoffices early in
the morning and that this practice en-
abled patrons to obtain their mail as
early as the length of the routes would
permit but by a new arrangement, in
stituted this winter, carriers have been
held till the middle OF the forenoon be-
fore starting. This has caused gen.
eral dissatisfaction among residents
along the various routes. This delays

The reasons given at the depart

wait for a local forenoon train from
Boston, which brought Boston papers.
But the senator represented to Mr..
Wood that the number of these Boston
papers received by rural route patrons
in kennehec county was very small.

which they re-captured some Of their

Villas Escape

Bachineva is on the eastern side of
the continental divide, about 80 miles
from Guerrero with which it is con-
nected by the famous Bachineva pass.
1t is through this pass that all ac-
counts agree Villa made his way after
the defeat of his followers by Col. Dodd
near Guerrero. From Bachineva to
through broad, vel watered and fer
tile valley.
On each side of the valley, however,
there. stretches for many miles the wild
est mountains waste in Mexico, an al
most ideal country for a fugitive. Mys-
terry is involved in the condemnation to
death of the three ringleaders of the al
legged plot to seize Juarez and their sud-
den reprieve at midnight by Gen. Gavira.
Both Gen. Gavira and Consul Garcia
have alternately described the plot as
that of Villa and Diaz followers. AS Villa
and Felix Diaz represent opposite ends
of the pole in Mexican politics. the for
mer being the so-called champion of the
poems and the latter representing the
property and clerical classes, there is
much speculation in Ell Paso as to the
details of the alleged plot. The Mexican
officials refuse to discuss the matter. The
alleged conspiracy was supposed to have
been Matched in Ell Paso but the Ameri-
can authorities had no knowledge of it.
Fifteen Mexicans suspected of being
Villa followers were arrested here today
and are being held for investigation.

Washington. Aug, l6. "A reit-
Grated refusal on the part Of the
Turkish government to permit
American relief supplies TO enter
Syria, cabled today to the state
department, coupled with yester-
days dispatch announcing abo-
lition of the Armenian patria-
chate in Turkey and the recent
execution OF money fading Arabs
in connection with the Mecca re-
volt is interpreted in official cir
Giles here as indicating that Wig
orous steps are being taken in
the attempt to consolidate the
Turkish regime through the
weakening Of the several other
racial elements in the country.
Abolition of the patriachaie
which had both religious and ad-
minlstrtive powers over the Ar
menians is regarded as designed
to break down Armenian power
and place all positions in the
hands of the turks.
Before the war there were
l,750, 600 Armenians in Turkey,
but $50, 900 are reported since to
have been killed and 100000 to
have fled. As result OF Ar.
menian power in Turkey is
thought to have been entirely

lie, wireless, Aug. 16, Half a
million British have been enga E
ed in an effort to break the Ger
man lines on the Somme front
Often as in the fighting between
Gommecourt and Hebutorn, the
British outnumbered the Ger
mans six to one. They ha, e
gained ground to a depth Of three
to five miles over a front CT Is
miles butnowhere have been able
10 break through.
More than ever, death has be-
come a commonplace in this most
mur'erous battle of all times.
The Germans in the first lire
noR that they probably will Re
killed is their positions are at
tackled. Trenches are virtually
ese e,s, for the heavy British
shells widen them into broad
channels, affording no cover of
any ,ort. The first line usually
per.shes.
The advancing British foot
troops are no better off, because
the Germans reverse the process
when part Of their positions have
been captured. After the Brit.
i,h artillery had levelled the
German trenches the infantry
rushes in. often to be thrown
out again as soon as the British
artillery ceases fire, which it has
to do. owing to the proximity Of
the opposing lines
The correspondent visited the
entire front of the present Often
sive. ard everywhere found from
talks with Germans that they
sere more determined than ever

are in capital shape phisicslly,
and easy of mind although they
are looking upon death at each
instant
There is no safety anywhere in
the zone behind tte front. What
the artillery does not reach is ex.
posed constantly to the bombs Of
the aviators. While the cores
pendent was at Buggy eight civ
iiians were killed; eighteen 9th

died in the German hospi al the

sons were killed and two were
