upon deer in the vicinity by lynx.
The information received is as fol-

zone of my neighbors who has been
hunting cats some this winter tells
me that last week he tracked a lynx
one day into a deer yard. He found
in the yard parts of the .carcasscs
of five deer he had killed and partly
eaten Can small deer). There were
two men together; they got the lynx
out and trailcd him some distance
and they circled him. He took his
back tracks and they met and shot
him. He is very large framed fell

Takes Up National Guard Matters
Governor Baxter called on various
officials, both in the War Department
and the Militia Bureau. He found
not only General Richards and Col.
Guiick in full accord with his atti-
tude on the Maine National Guard
but all the other officers whom he
met were most cordial in their COM
mendation of the Maine National
Guard and its high rating at the
7 present time. They assured Cover
nor Baxter that the Maine Guard was
already far above the quota that is
demanded of the States I'd to 1925

Baxter remained one day longer than
he intended and was obliged to elimi-
nate some of his engagements in New
York in order to reach home Tues
day. After his arrival in Washing
