The retiirns troin the deer shoot-ing sc.ihon will nothe inbefoiv Nov. 10th and the nuniber of bucks killed in tliis county and the state cannot be given before th.U date.

Fish and Game Comniissioner E. A. Davis of Bethel says, however, that judging from figures already received the slaughter has been grciiterthan ever. The numbcr will undoubtedly bc very close to five humlred. Mr.

Davis is strongly of the opin-ion that the lawonght tobe clianged to allow the shooting of does, which he thinks would lessen the total niun-ber ol deer in the state very little. A large iiuinberof does have been killed tliis season, whit were left where they fall, and only in rare in-stances nre the guilty hunters dis-coveied and punished. It Was Mr. Blanchard's Bullet. An iiKpiest in the case of the Plymouth buck which fell before a vollcy flred hy six hunters devel-oped the fnct that it was killed by a solid lead bullet.

The only one ol the party who used tliis kind of 11 bullet was Clarence Blanchaitl of Plymouth and the credit therefore goes to him. The other inembers of the firing squad were Geoige T. I 1.

Three Days on a Bear Trail. Del Deso staited a bear while deer hiinting 111 Biidgewater Chat-eauguny and followed him foi a good pait of three days. Ile only got one glimpse of the animal and that was when the chase began, but there wns nn inch or two of snow on the ground nnd Del could follow A BkM- Hw in pVK-p the tracks about as fast. as hc could run, which was not cpiite so fast as the bear got over the ground. Ile has a high opinion of tliis beai's sprinting abilitics.

Del staited the hear not far from the Daniels mill in Chatcauguay Tuesdny forenoon, the trail leading him over into "No Town" and back over Bald hill, and m'an nnd bear went ovei tliis route twice. Del ri'tnrnt'd to camp Vs m. Inte at night and hit the trail ngnin Wednesday iiiorning, following it all that day and Thursday until 110011. Over towards Lakota lake he found that nnother party had taken the tiail and hc gave it tip. Lucky Local Hunters.

Jumped on a Buck's Back. W. J. Cai pcnter of Roxbury shot a big buck deer twice without kill-ing hi'TJ. Seeing him about to rise and bc off Mr.

Carpenter gavc one big jump, landing on the back ol the deer and holding him by the horns. This didn't suit his majesty who coolly liftcd Mr. Carpenter and tlnew him over his big horns into the river. Mr. Rice then shot him again, this time killing him; weight 306 pounds.

C. White aml Dr.Dean'e Rich-niond ol Windsoi drove to the top ol Mt. Ascutney recently, and Iheir wagon was doubtless the lirst one that ever leached the siinvnit. There are stories of a gig, with a colnred diiver, going up in 1S5S, but Mr. White, who kindly gives The Agc few notes ol the trip, hiisn't been able to verify them.

It was a hard job to leach the top, but Dr. Richmond and Mr. White wanted to see if it could be done, and they accomplished it after sonie pushing, pulling and liee-cliopping. A number of Windsor people have siibsciibed loward a fund to re-paii the path to the summit and Nlr. White has had four or tive men at work there for some weeks.

Ile sn The path is in excellent condition for snddle horscs, but was not and is not intended for a whceled vehicle, as mauy ofthe tuins aie too short, and some of the grades are too steep. Since vve drove up the path has been wiilened in the plnces wheie we had the greatest diflicully, but it is still uiisnfe and impractica-ble. We had tocut a few trees, lift the wagon over a few rocks nnd nround a few tuins, but we did not unhitch the horse from the wagon uor did we break or injure the wagon or harness. Last Friday some foity men united in "bce" to rebuild tiie old stone house on top of thc mountain. About twenty boie loads of mate-rial were taken up and the house is now nearly compteted.

The waUs are of cut stone, 6 ft. 6 in. highrr 20X14 feet wjth a rtr, nnd shtittcr covered with tin. A large east iron box stove is set up and a fairly comfoitable, diy slecp-ing place will be available for pnr-ties who wish to spend t'-e night there. BARNARD.
