Open Season For Deer Closes End Of
This Week.
Absence of Snow in the Woods Makes
Hunting Difficult. Few Deer
Killed. :

On Saturday evening of this
week the open season for deer
will close and hunters will have
three days after that time in
which to get their deer in from
the hunting grounds.
The weather, according to
hunters, has not been the best
for hunting. What little snow
there was in the woods at the
opening of the season has since
disappeared and hunting has
been made. more difficult on ac-
count Of the dryness of the
woods.
Reports from the different
hunting sections of the county
are to the effect that the slaugh-
terof deer has not been heavy
this season. In Bayfield, county
hunters were permitted to kill
only mature deer and this made
hunting difficult if one wanted
to observe the law, for it is al
most impossible to tell the age
of a deer when it is moving
rapidly through the brush coun-
try.
Some deer have been brought
into the city during the past
week but the number killed has
been very small in comparison to
the number of hunters in the
woods.

Remains Found by Hunters in
North Country Woods.
Denizens Of the Forest Meet, Lock
Horns, and Battle to Their
Death

With only the stars and trees
as silent witnesses a mighty
battle to death was waged in the
north country woods of Bayfield,
County some time during the
past four weeks and two prone
forms Of two mighty denizens
of the forest now lay stretched
across the road, telling of the
battle which was fought.
Hunters who have been up in
the Port Wing territory during
the past week have made trips
to the spot where this battle en-
sued between two monster buck
deer, the one a five prong fellow
weighing more than $50 pounds
and the other a four prong buck
weighing slightly less than 200.
The spot where these denizens
met was on a slopeing hill and
the ground around the spot is
torn up where the battle was
waged. 1t is presumed that the
bucks charged each other and
their horns locked so firmly that
to seperate them was impossi-
BILE. After battling for a time
the two bucks fell over exhaust
ed into a water hole where they
drowned and it was here that
their dead forms were found by
hunters. @
The condition of the bodies
would indicate that the battle
was fought about three weeks
ago for they were but slightly
decomposed. It is seldom that
these fellows are found in this
manner and this fact has caused
many hunters to make the trip
out to the place where they
were found.

R. H. Brunner Of Duluth Laying Out
Site and Taking Soundings
Construction Engineers to Lay Our
Yard When Drawings are
Completed.

r. H. Drummer of Duluth, an
experienced surveyor and civil
engineer, has been here the past
week making survey OF the
site of the Anchor Shipbuilding
company and taking soundings
of the water in front of the site.
This work was completed yester-
day evening and Mr.. Drummer
left for Duluth today where ne
will prepare blueprints and
drawings of the site which Will
be turned over to the construct
ion engineers who will lay out
the yard. According to Mr..
Drummer, the Anchor Shipbuild-
ing company have an ideal site
for a ship yard and one of the
best to be found on the lakes.
The land lays level and is close
to railway connections with
plenty of room for enlarging the
property as the demand for
ships increases.
The Anchor Shipbuildipg COM
pany have been busy the past
week getting a line of materials
needed for the yard and they
expect to push the work as
rapidly as possible.
News of Washburn's new
ship yard has spread rapidly and
inquiries concerning the possl-
BILE date of its starting is being
sought by shipping interests.
The officers feel confident that
they will have plenty of con-
tracts for ships ahead before the
yard is ready to construct ships.

Bags Large Buck

James Killshaw is some hunter,
He does not have to tramp the
wilds to kill deer. The other day
he made a trip up the Bayfield, road
and without leaving the road killed
fine buck deer, and said that he
could have killed two others had
the law permitted the killing OF
more than one deer. The one which
he brought to town had eight
prongs and topped the scales at
better than two hundred pounds.
1t is the biggest brought to town
this season.

HUNTING ACCIDENT
ON RESERVATION
Pat LaGrue, Chippewa Indian,
Accidently Shot--is Second
instance

Odanah, Wis.,, Nov. 26-Pat
LaGrue, a Chippewa Indian,
was shot and killed on the Bad
River Reservation by an Indian,
Tom Dennis. who mistook the
white gloves worn by LeGrue,
for the tail of a deer.
This is the second recorded
instance of one Indian shooting
another by mistake on an Indian
reservation or anywhere else in
northern Wisconsin. In the
other case which occurred over a
dozen years ago, an Odanah In
dian had shot a deer. and was
carrying it home on his back
when another Indian caught a
glimpse of a flag" of a deer
descending ravine, and shot it,
only to find another Indian un-
it
Although the Indians are al
lowed to hunt on the Reserva-
tion any time of the year, acci-
dents have been absolutely un-
known among them, excepting
in the instances mentioned.
The first thing that the Indians
are taught is to know what they
are shooting at. The principle
reason there are so many hunt
ing accidents among the white
hunters is that there ar so many
amateurs in the woods.

Superior Paper Has Article on
BarkSdale Plant
Says it was Contemplated to Make Plant
One of the Largest in the
World.

The following article relative
to the Barksdale plant of the
DUPONT Powder company, which
appeared in the Superior Tele-
gram Of last week, will be inter-
esting news to the people Of this
city. The article is as follows:
1.-The United States will take
steps necessary to preserve the
expenditure of SO, 100000 already
made out of a contemplated out
lay of SIS, 100000 at the Barks-
dale powder plant at an early
date, according to dispatches to
The Telegram from Washing
ton. Plans are now being
worked out, it is said, and may
necessitate the expenditure of a
considerable additionable sum.
While reports from the plant
as we'll as from Washburn and
Ashland have been to the effect
Jnat construction work is large
ly at a standstill, it is understood
that this is due to the incom-
plete state of plans for future
activities at Barksdale.
The $15,0O0,OOO expenditure
contemplated was to provide a
great plant to manufacture high
explosives principally for the
United States Navy. The a
m unt Set aside for the work,
has never been given out before.
1t would have made the plant,
it is claimed, one of the largest
of it's kind in the world.
Since the signing of thearmis-
tice and the ceasing of hostilities
on the western front in France
there has been a slowing up of
the munitions industries of the
country and a number of men
who were employed in the con-
struction department. of the Ou-
Pont plant at Barksdale have
been compelled to seek other
employment. 1t is the belief Of
many in this city that this slow
ing down is only temporary and
that before many months roll by
that the big Barksdale plant will
readjust itself to peace times
and will become a larger and
more substantial plant than ever
before.
