Eldildgo Kelly of Arkvllle returned homo on Monday last from a week's out- ing lu the Adlrondaeks, bringing with him a line yearling deer, which he shot while there, It Is rumored that after the report of the rifle, and Mr. Kelly seeing that ho had secured his game, be ascended several feet In the air, alighting by the side of his game. On the Sun- day following a few invited fiieuds assembled at the Locust Grove House, where a most bountiful repast was given. Among those present were Mr. and Mrs. A. F. Sweet, Mr. and Mrs. W. G.

On Saturday two of our local Dan'l Boones, accompanied by a brace of prot- 1 ty schoolma'ams, went on a hunting ex- pedition lu the direction of Pakatakau. The party was armed with three rifles and a kodak. We do not hear that a great slaughter of game was effected, yet while the ladles took snap-shots of somo youdg cubs the two Dan'Issaw a couple of dears and came marching ttlumphantly home with them. When the reporter saw the captives one was contentedly browsing off the end an of envelope. Ho Fired the Shot Heard 'Round the Town. Cmslderablo ludiguatlon was aroused among local sportsmen on Monday when it was learned that while hunting on that day Orrla Dutnond of this village had killed one of the golden pheasants that were liberated In the nearby woods some time ago. His excuse is that he did not know but that It was a partridge when ho shot. It was a male bird, and as their plumage is very showy it seems that most any one could tell by half looking. The penalty for shooting those birds Is 160 Itne. A Caution. John D. Rotermund, lire warden for the (own of Mlddletown, calls attention to the neoosslty of exorcising a great deal of care by hunters and others In regard to the use of matches and the consequent clanger of starting fires In the woods. A large amount of damage might easily be caused by carelessly throwing a lighted match lu the dry loaves at this time.
