Apportioning the $4,000 received |

pied the attention of the Kent County |
Levy Court at their meeting last
Tuesday. In dividing the money three
districts-the Second, Fifth and Sew
enth-did not receive any of the State
money as their balances from last
year, together with the amount that
will be received from this years taxes
will meet their requirements. The
money will be used principally tu-as-
sist several districts, the accounts of
which were overdrawn during the
past year.
The First district received $500
which, together with their balance
and the money received from taxes
this year, will give them S1,186.51.
The Second district will have a total
of $2,657.98, although they received
none of the State money. The Third
district received $3.50 which will give
them a total of $1,286.25. The Fourth
district received $1,5OO, but will only
have $988.46, as their account for the
past year was greatly Overdrawn.
The Fifth district without any State
aid will have $3,651.82.
The Sixth district, like the Fourth,
Overdrew their account during the
past year and will have but S72140,
although they received $1,5OO of the
State money. The Seventh district
received no State money, but will
have $3,587.38 for the coming year.
The Eighth district received $3.50 and

any action on it, proposal for the
settlement of estimated damages to
the farm of Edwin and Harriet c..
Wix along the new Harrington-Burrs
vile concrete road. The road cuts
right through the Wix farm and the
damages were estimated at $3.50.
The Levy Court, failing to act on the
matter, will probably cause it to be
settled by condemnation proceedings.

the court representing Alexander
George with a request that bridge
be opened on the road leading from
the Reynolds farm to FELTON, in the
Eighth district. After hearing the

Special Dispatch to The Star.
RICHMOND, Va, June 29.-Reports
are coming into headquarters of the
game department that several young
deer have been captured at various
points, and that they are being held
captive. This is a violation of the
law, save and except in such cases
as when the young deer stray off
and get lost the people are asked
to corral them and to feed them un-
til they are large enough to take
care of themselves. and for this serv-
ice they will be reimbursed. Deer
are becoming more plentiful. but if
the young deer are caught and
slaughtered 1t means that several
years will elapse before the state is
reStocked.
There is little enforcement of the
law regarding the killing of the elks
which were brought here some ten
years ago. the animals proving fear
fully destructive, and much of the
good beef being sold in some rarts
