HUNTERS USE PRECAUTION

WITH the opening of the deer
season tomorrow it is always
well to throw out word of ad-
|vice to hunters going into the
woods in quest of game, TO be
careful that the toll Of human
lives usually enacted may be
lessened. According TO a re.
port sent out by the Wisconsin
Conservation Com mission the
present season bids fair to on :
rival any thing before recorded,
in its probable effect upon tt 9
deer herd. But the menace TO
deer is nothing compared to the
hazard to human life, inherent
in Tie threatened congestion of
hunt1ls in the northern coun-
tbs of the state. The number
| of deer licenses issued in the
state this year has reached the
enormous total of approximately
5000 as against all average of
about 35 900 in former years.
The open territory in the state
has been reduced SO it appears
that while there is double the
amount of hunters. yet the ter
rltor in which they must contine
themselves while hunting has
been decreased by several coun-
ties, so it must be apparent that
thel e will be more congestion
in the northern woods.
1t is therefore deemed i'm
peralive to urge upon all sports
men to use the greatest pre-
eau ton in the handling of the
rifle in the woods and about the
hunting camps. No man de-
liberately fires at a human being
while hunting but the habit of
shooting at anything that
moves" has cost many lives
each year.
The cooperation of the hunt
ers is asked, as man to man, 10
spread the solemn word of warn
ling. You can shoot one deer
but look well before you shoot.
Let every hunter stay his dead
lily bullet until he is certain
beyond a eiouot that he is shool
lag at a deer, and that his mark
is not hu man heart.

CANNOT
 FIND EVIDENCE AGAINST LANDAU
French "Bluebeard" Has Apparently Covered His
 Tracks Completely.
REPLIES
 ANGER JUDGE
Thorough Search Reveals No Trace of 13 Missing
 Women.

Paris, Sept 22-CCorrespondence of The Associated Press). - Little headway has been made in the case of Landru, "the Cambais Blucbeard." :" as the French papers term him, who is charged by the police with being responsible for the disappearance of thirteen women to whom he had promised marriage.
 The police have been investigating for four monFs and four times a week Landru is taken from the prison of La Sante to the office of Judge Bonin whose questions as to the fate of the thirteen women elicit from Landru cvasive and at times very witty responses. They have got as far as sweetheart number three and I.andru's flippant replies have nearly driven the Judge to nervous pros tration.
 Yesterday the judge announced that he was going for a holiday. Iandru immediately clipped in with the request that he, too. be permit ted to take a vacation as the regime of La Saute did not agree with him. Might he not be allowed to go to his villa at Gambais and hold himself at the disposition of the Court It was from Gambais villa that Landru's future spouscs disappeared never to be heard of since.
 Judge Bonin was asking Landru this week how it was that his son who assisted him in removing the furniture of three of his fiancees did not make queries when moving that of Mrs Quillin, the third removal of furniture in six months. Did he not find it stranger" asked the Judge.
 "NIy children obey my orders, they do not discuss them." responded Lam dru. 'I have my misgivinEs as to the way you bring up your children, Judge" he added sententiously.
 I4andru contended that he had an order from Mrs. GuilIin, drawn up in legal form giving him full power of attorney to administed her property. This document was not found among your papers, therefore, I must con cIude that it never existed" said the court.
 And as you and your police, with all the means at your command are unable to find Mrs. GUiIIIn, I must therefore conclude that she never ex- isted," countered LandTu.
 Not one vestige of the missing women has been found and the charge of murder against Landru Is growing weaker. There is no corpus deficit" The villa at Gambis has been ransacked by the police and ponds in the vicinity of the villa have been drained. but 1t would appear that the women have vanished into thin air. To questions as to the prob able vhereabout of the missing wo- men, his relations with them prior to their disappearance, Landru in variably replies: q am a man of the world. I cannot betray the COnt1- denCe of women"

to have anything TO do with the sal

that the American League president
would make was that his league de-
cided the salary limit question two
years ago. This meant that 1t would
not be taken up again. This pres
sure brought by Johnson caused the
National men to reconsider the rule
and drop it.
