"In the region of our camp at Swift river were perhaps a dozen yards of deer containing front eight to llfteen deer. When the winter closed down and the snow came they were all as fat and rugged-lookin- g We used to see as butter balls. them about the woods in the fall and they yarded In the thick trees where they could get plenty of tree branches to eat. The snow came down heavy and shut them In. They could not get g out of their yard paths without in the snow'. Ordinarily they can wade out and make new paths and tracks, but this year the snow was so deep that when they tried to get out they merely stuck in the snow and had to struggle back into the yard as best they could. The result was that they ate up all the green stuff that there was to be had and then starved. Some of those that I found within a few weeks back w'ere so poor that their bones stuck out of their hides, almost. We hare had to haul hay Into the camp the last of the season and for that purpose have built roads through the snow. The hay, of course, would fall off and be torn off by the branches of lloun-derin- the trees and scattered along the wood road. Well, after the first crust came on which the deer could walk in the early mornings they came out of their yards on it and scattered all through the woods, eating everything ravenously. They came to the wood road where our hay was scattered along the "way and they just camped down there. They stayed till late in the forenoon and when the crust melted they could not walk back to their yards on it. Then they continued to follow along the road till they came to the camp where we sometimes took pity on the d poor things and gave them food. But our greatest surprise was when we were hauling in hay one morning the first time that the crust on the snow would hold and saw a lot of the deer ahead of us in the snowy road. We had seen them in the fall frisking through the woods like shadows, and we supposed that they would flee from us now, but they did not. They waited till we came up and one cnly tried to get out of the path, he going into the snow to the hips and wallowing there helpless. The rest stood still, jamming out of the wray and letting us pass so near that they were touched by our hands when we passed. .A little distance ahead of us they presented a beautiful picture and were apparently well. But when we came up to them it was revealed why they so patiently waited to let us come up. They were starving. They bit eagerly at the hay as we passed them by. And one or two followed us and ate off of the rear of the load. But such pathetic sights you never have seen in your life. They were as poor as poor could be. Their eyes stuck out at the appearance of the hay, and while they exhibited every appearance of extreme half-starve- . olly-tongu- I LILl(l pin vu S!orc. uul bi Mu- - i,in oof itooks, and l riotlra Is, , , .

Strange of Eastbourne, was fined by the Eastbourne magistrates for allowing a pet dog to be at large unmuzzled. The little boy produced a money box in court and paid the fine in small coins. "Ouida," having seen an account of the case in foreign newspapers, has sent the youthful defendant a letter from Italy, dated Jan. 24. The letter is as follows: "My Dear Boy I have seen your action as recorded in the papers with much pleasure. Any devotion you pay to your dog will be repaid to you a thousandfold by his affection. It is only men who betray those who befriend them. The muzzling craze is a brutal folly and a disgrace to England. Accept this little for your savings box, I can be useful to you or and if ever I remain, me. command your dog yours, with much sympathy, Ouida.
