Yantages are such that there is no reason why in tirle it may not be one ! of the best in the country. Michael Eiannerv. the superintendent, has
 spent his life on private and public game preserves in this country and in England and Scotland and he is firm Tn his belief that 1t is as fine nat 'ural preserve as exists today.
 The tract of land that it is situated on covers a little oveE. 3000 acres Of woodland, meadow, marsh and rocky
 hills. A little river winds through
 the centre and at one point broadens
 out into miniature lake. The tract
 may be seen from the cars of the
 Shore Line Electric railroad about
 ten miles wes. of this city.
 It was previously the property of Commodore Merton r. Plant. He spent a fortune on it building hunt used in the propagation of game hirds, besides a complete equipment of buildings for a stock farm where all Gornestic animals are bred. Hun and graded and a dam was thrown acresss tie little stream to form q lake. Tha woods and cover were stocked a'ith DiJeasants and native game birds l,:d the stream with trout.

CAUSE OF VETO
President Wilson Refuses His OH
cial Approval of immigration Bill
and Return it Unsigned.

Washington, Jan. 29.-President
Wilson today vetoed the immigration
bill H.. based his objections to the
measure, first. on the ground Of his
disapproval CT the "literacy test and
further on the possibility created by
certain administrative features Of the
proposed Law of embarrassing diplo-
matte complications.
Owing to the congested condition Of
the legislative calendar in congress. Il
is regarded as unlikely that both
houses will be able to <ake tha time
necessary to pass the bill over the
executive veto. Supporters OF The
N asure. however, claim a clear two
thirds majority in both houses.
In his message vetoing the bin.
President Wilson said:

bill without my signature. In most OF
the provisions OF the bill I should be
W glad to concur. but | cannot rio
myself Of the conviction that the lit
eracy test constitutes a radical change
