 She promptly helped it to its feet, as someone shouted, That was neat. From now no, when you have that rope, won't feel safe and sound"
 A bucking bronco then was brought before the bunch. T think you ought to try and ride him, Duncy," said cowboy, with a grin.
 If you are game, hang on real tight. He'll shake you, lad, with all his might. Why, when you hop off the ground, you won't know where you've been."
 "Aw, I'm not scared" wee Duncy roared. Come on, someone help me aboard" A cowboy put him on the bronc and started yelling "Yip." q
 This scared the beast. He jumped around. Poor Duncy hung on tight and frowned. Then, as he bounced up high, he thought that to the ground he'd slip.

Course Dotty was embarrassed. She exclaimed, "Oh, kindly pardon me. l meant to lasso that small steer, but 1t raced right away.
 "The next time, I'm sure I'll inn prove. Get me steer that will not move. Twill make the task real easy, if in one spot it will stay"
 The cowboy who had been roped said, Why, when your rope dropped OCT my head, it really took me by surprise, but it is quite all right.
 'You need bit of practice, miss, and then you won't pull tricks like this. I guess I should have fol- lowed that small steer right out of sight.
 "Now I am going to show you how to make sure of your catch, right now. Here comes an- other steer. I'll catch him by the left hind leg"
 And then he gave the rope fling and promptly did that very thing. "Hurray for you" wee Dotty cried That was perfect peg" And then she practiced for a while and soon her face spread in

CAME WARDENS AFTER ILLEGAL
 DEER HUNTERS
Six Men Sentenced in Cam paign to Protect Does
 and Fawns

Completing the initial patrol in the Game Commissions current cam- paign to end the shooting of does and fauns, Game Warden Homer Jewell returned to Juneau last night aboard the boat Grizzly Bear.
 Jewell made an inspection of the Hoonah and Sitka regions, as well as Chatham, Lisianski and Peril Straits. Six men were arrested in the Lisianski section for illegal deer shooting, and were taken by Jewell before Commissioner George Mal- com at Hoonah.
 Frank wilson, captain of the sein- ing boat Frisco, was found guilty of the possession of female deer car cass and was fined $25 and given three months suspended entence
 Jim Mckinley, John Marks, Les lie Johnson, George Martin and Pete Dunkin were each given 30 days in jail for killing does and fauns
 "A marked railing off in the num- Der of Sitka deer is noticeable due to the shooting of does and fauns. " Jewell said today" and people of the Sitka region are very aroused about the widespread and criminal viola tion of game laws in this regard
 Jewell added that there was no in dication of any natural depletion of the deer, and that all seem in fine condition.
 A foot of snow and l2 degrees above zero last week brought the deer down to the waters edge, the game warden said, and several of the offenders brought before the Hoonah commissioner were caught shooting the animals from motorboats.
 All these practices. particularly the killing of does, must be entirely stamped out or we are not going to have any deer left Jewell warned. The patrols are going to be contin- ued, and all violators severely dealt with"
 The boat Grizzly Bear, command ed by Captain Claire Krough, will leave on an inspection cruise again shortly.

38-l ear-Old Service Dis continued as Result of
 Bridge Across Channel

!. A service of 38 years standing came to conclusion for residents of Cas- tineau Channel at 12.30 o'clock to- day when the ferry on the route be- tween Juneau and Douglas made it's last run. In the march of progress, the ferry service gives way to the new Douglas Island bridge which was recently opened.
 The Juneau Ferry and Navigation Company, which has operated the service for years, has disposed of all but one of the four vessels which have piled on the line. They include the Lone Fisherman, Alma, Amy and the Teddy which made the last run.
 The old ferry service has carried on through colorful days on Gas tineau Channel, those days when Treadwell was at it's height and Douglas city of large population, and when Juneau was just making it's start to becoming the modern city of today There is hardly a citizen who has lived in the commun- ity any length of time but who has crossed the channel on the famous old line. which started out with vir- tually rowboat fleet and developed through the years to neat little boats of the present day.
 In the Douglas news in today's Empire will be found further infor- nation of the historic old ferry ser vice which now has been pushed aside by motorized road transporta- ton and steel span linking the Twin cities of Gastineau Channel.
 Mail which has been carried on the ferry for many years now will go by cab over the bridge, the temporary work being given to J. V. Hickey of the Yellow Cab Company pending the awarding of regular mail con- tract. The Walter Bacon bus line established regular passenger ser vice between the two cities just af- ter the bridge opened.

FERRY MAKES ALASKA LUMBER LAST RUN TO BUSINESS BACK
 DOUCL AS TODAY TO 1929 LEVEL
Increased Orders Has Re vived Industry, Gardner
 Tells Chamber Group

The lumber industry in Alaska is back on a pre- depression plane, &C., cording to Tom Gardner, Vice Pres ident of the Juneau Lumber Mills, who spoke at the Chamber of Com merce luncheon at the Terminal to- day MT. Gardner. who has been since last April at the Juneau Lum- Der Mills logging camps at Edna Bay on Kuskiusko Island and at Tuxe- kan Pass, returned to Juneau a few days ago.
 The lumber industry, which has been in the doldrums for long time, began to show signs of life last spring, MT. Gardner said. Improve ment was continuous throughout the summer and now the industry is back to normal pre- depression prosperity. The increased activity in the lumber l industry, MT. Gardner said, is due largely to orders for lumber from canneries, including Libby McNeill & Libby, Fidalgo Island Packing Company. Pacific Alaska Fisheries, and others.
 3c0 Employed
 About 300 men were employed in three Southeast Alaska lumber mills located in Juneau, Wrangell and Ket- chikan, MT. Gardner said, and the combined payrolls of the Juneau Lumber Company, Sawyer and Rey- holds, Ketchikan Spruce Mills, Lar son and Lloyd, and Mcdonald of Wrangell, amounted to approximate ly $247. 900 this year, for a total of 45.000 man days at an average wage of s5.50 per day.
 The Juneau Lumber Mills logging camp, which was located at Edna Bay all summer, but which was re- gently moved to Tuxekan Bay for winter operations, has been operat- ing at full capacity since last Feb ruary with only one day off-the Fourth of July--Mr. Gardner said and logging will continue at the new camp throughout the winter if the weather permits.
 Ketchikan in Good Shape
 Business conditions are very good in Ketchikan, MT. Gardner said. A new mine is being developed at Sea Level. IS or 20 miles south of Ket- chikan. The ground has been dia- mond drilled and working tunnel ] is being driven.

RELIEF QUESTION UPPERMosT

WASHINGTON, Oct. 31.--Presi- dent Roosevelt's decision pn how much to spend on relief next year may be talking point of the com ing campaign. according to observers here. The decision is one of the most important facing him in pre- pairing the new budget.
 Administrative officials already have indicated expenditures would be about normal and government acti- vities about the same as last year.
 R. G. Tugwell. Undersecretary of Agriculture, made public state ment early in the week showing the Administration could satisfy every humanitarian demand and still come so balanced budget in the fiscal year of 1888, unless something un- forseen happens. such as a war or major catastrophe
 Balanced Budget
 A balanced budget and reduction in relief costs have been two of the things opponents have been pound- ing on for long time. thus it is generally believed that these sub jects will be among the salient points of the campaign between now and the election in November of next year.
