For many years our fish and pane department has provided some of the be ys with excellent hunting and fishing, v hile the common crowd, who v ay, foot most of the bills, by the stand on the sidelines and look on. for We do not blame this farmer kicking because he can see where the boys in his county will soon have no deer to shoot at. However, this farmer may not be telling the truth. Probably the deer are so plentiful down his ay that they are knocking down the farm fences and eating up all the farmers hay stacks and it isthe duty of the game department to protect the farmers by exterminating these animals who dare eat the farmers out of home and farm. There is another big hunt that is going to be pulled right soon. It will be on Antelope island, a small island in the Great Salt Lake, where there is a small hed of bufialo or bison. These buffalo have become so vicious" that a national hunt is being organized to kill them off, and each kill-t- r is to receive a big medal according to reports. Of course these animals can be made but under ordinary there is about as much wild, very ons conditisportsm- anship in killing one of these animals this small island and as much as there would be to walk some dairy corral and shoot down on excitement into the wild cows. cne of right to kill the buffalo for their meat, but to make a sporting event of it is about as far fetched as it would be to take a .22 rifle and go down the back alley hunting wild It is tom all cats. Early Sunday morning Arthur T. Koon, a lineman, reported to the Long Lines office of the A. T. & T. Co. at West Palm Beach with a vivid narrative of damage done in the section of the East Coast, between Miami and West Palm Beach. He had started from Miami long before the hurricane subsided, and groping his way on foot through the wreckage all Saturday night had made an appraisal of the damage done to telephone plant. He was probably the first person to bring the story of the hurricane to the outside world. A few hours later S. W. Newlan, another telephone employee from Key West, arirved at West Palm Beach, having covered the telephone lines for a distance of 225 miles from Key 67-mi- le West. The first part of his journey he made on a railroad motor car speeder, but wreckage across the tracks finally forced him to abandon it and he (Covered the last one hundred miles alternately on foot and in motor cars. From the reports of these two men, and others who followed, Bell officials learned of the damage to the long distance lines. On the 120 mile stretch from West Palm Beach to the first of the Florida Keys, nearly half of the line was entirely wiped a submarout. 'At one river-crossiine cable, together with half a mile of the line, had been washed away. At other places the wires were tang-gle- d and twisted into hopesless confusion. The new cable line which is under construction from Miami to West Palm Beach did not suffer as badly as the open wire line. At Villa Rica the Town Administration Building was blown through it. As soon as reports giving details of the damage began to come in, telephone men, together with materials and supplies were rushed to the devastated sections.. At one time there was an average of one construction gang working per mile along a stretch of line. Commissary trucks supplied the forces with food and drinking water, as local water systems were out of commission. line The West Palm Beach-Miafailed at 1:30 Saturday morning. The Jacksonville-Wes- t Palm Beach line failed just north of West Palm Beach with two total breaks at 2 a. m. The first emergency circuit was made good for a brief period from Jacksonville to West Palm Beach at 9:30 a. m. Sunday morning. It could be operated only for a short while, however, and was replaced two hours later by a line which continued to op- Oriental habits, the Wall Street Journal declares that it is a difficult matter to impress upon the Chinese the fact that the telephone is a time and labor saving device rather than a luxury. One of the best known characteristics of the true Chinaman is his propensity for voluminous and flowery speech. So firmly implanted is this tendency that when he comes to talk over the telephone he finds himself unable to dispense with these verbal bouquets. Especially is this true of Chinamen of the old school, who, when they get on the wire, spend sometimes ten or fifteen minutes in exchanging compliments, felicitations and other conversational effervescences before they are ready to take up the actual subject of conversation, which, in itself, is, as a rule, protracted. The Chinamen in the United States, however, have learned American ways and can carry on a conversation in this country with as much dispatch and precision as anyone. leisurely Salt Lake City Silver King mines paid $304,025 dividend, tober 1.
