These birds were rapidly being exterminated, but since their respite they have increased with marvelous rapidity. The game laws of Michigan in regard to deer are as follows : The open season in the upper peninsula is from Oct 1 to Nov. 15, and in the lower peninsula during the month of November only, The hodnding of deer is unlawful at all times, and subjects the owner of the dog to punishment, and under the statue, the dog may be killed by any person without liability for dams es. No deer shall be killed when it is re coat, and no fawn when in spotted coat. No deer shall be killed while in any waters of the State, nor by means of any pit or trap, nor the use of any artificial light. Tramportation of deer, or any part of the carkass of the same beyond the limits of the state. is prohibited at all times. A violation of any one of these laws subjects the offender to a fine of $50, and every offender will be prosecuted. Movement of Shot When Fired. If a man could only stand thirty 'or forty yards away from the mnzz‘e of the gun and watch the charges of shot fly past him. he would he astonished at: what he saw. The shot not only spreads on into a. widening target as they fly, but they string out one behind the other to a much greater distance than they spread. @‘hns, with a cylinder gun, when the first shot of a charge reach a target that is forty yards away the 1am: shun are legging along ten yards behind. Even with a choke bored gun the shot lag behind eight: yards in torty. This accounts for the long swath that is mowed in a flock of ducks on whom the charge of shot fall just right. About 5 per cent. only of the charge of 31105 arrive simultaneously at the target, but the balance of the first half of the charge is so close behindjzhat a bird’s muscles are not quick enough to get it out of the way, 81. though those who have watched sitting birds when shot at have often seen them start as if to fly when the leading she; Whistled by them, only to drop dead as they were overtaken by the leaden hail that followed. Fishing by artificial light is not a new thing, but the way some fishermen along the coast: of Maine are using the electric light is new. The old way was to plunge an incandescent lamp into‘ the water. the ______ ‘;nn kph-10 mnr‘n with some source of “6" â€"‘ ' w an incandescent lamp' into. the water. the connection being inade with some source of electricity on board the fishing vealed; and the mains to the lamp often got foul of the fishing tackle or the cable of the vessel, destroying its usefulness. Now a French- man has discovered a better way by adopt- ing a. lamp worked by a primary battery, the whole of which can be thrown over- board and regained when the trip is ended. The battery consists of six Bunsen cells, in which, however, chromic acid is placed in. stead of nitric acid, formerly used. The cells are connected in tension with a twelve- volc Edison lamp. The access of the experi- ments lately made pressges the general adop- tion by our coast fishermen of this new dis- oovery.â€"[Lewiston Journal. uIn-uu w 5.... v...” Convictions shall 11ch he quashed for Something 1‘ The Game Laws. New in Fishing. want 00m- Se\ erel years ago a fisherman whom we will call Barnes, living near \Vest River, Md., on the western shore of the Chesapeake Bay, met with a strange end, as of after- ward proved, somewhat ludicrous adventure. He had lines baited for rockfish, and set on the Three Sisters' Knoll, a submarine eleve- tion of sandy formation, of which there are many in that part of the bay. Mr. Barnes arose early one morning, got into his beat, and rowed out to the Three Sisters to exam- ine his lines. While engaged in this business, he heard in the distance a strange cry, unlike any- thing he had ever heard before in the bay. At first, thinking it might be some one in distress, he listened intently, and shouted, to attract the attention of Whoever might be oas_t away upon the waters. u _. - -__.. ALL. w... mm, .1.-- -..- .... _, The only raply was the same cry, this time nearer ; but he also heard the sound of splashing in the water, that: seemed to in- dicate some large body swimming in the direction of the boat. ullvvvlvu . u... ~â€" The fisherman was by this time perplexed and a feeling of superstitious fear began to creep over him. Under ordinary circum- stances, he was not afraid while in his boat to meet with any creature he had ever seen in the bay ; but the unearthlineaa of the cry that came to him from over the wa‘er in the darkness, and the sound as of some great monster swimming toward him, was more than he could endure, and he began to plan a flight to the shore. (",7 Again the cry sounded, this time uncom- fortably near, a long-drawn wavering tone something like he-Izaa-a a. a! and, to the fiaherman’s fright, a dark object appeared coming straight for p15 boat. ‘. n: Mr. Barrie: waited no longer, but excited- ly seized his ours. and began to “ pull for the shore." The strange monster followed, uttering his weird cry occasionally, and swimming at what Mr. Barnes's excited imagination took to be a. rapid rate. Occa- sionally the creature touched bottom upon one of the knolls, and then he seemed able to wade ; but in a moment down he would é) Rigideéfi Vvégtér againrwith a great splash and another he-haa-ara-a .' which caused the fiahermap to try to pull fa‘ster. _ For about a quarter of an hour, which probably seemed four times as long to the fisherman, this exciting race continued. At last Mr. Barnea’s boat touched the beach, and he leaped out and ran through the neighborhood, arousing the people by his excited cries +h3t a “ sea-devil was coming I" The astonished fisherfolk heard the story, and hastily armed themselves with old muskets, fowling-pieces, shot-guns, boat- hooks, pitchforks and axes, and went forth to Pest and slay the monster: . u The army of defence gathered near the shore, and soon that strange cry was audible to all. As they waited with wondering expectation for the approach of the "sea- devil," a dark form emerged from the gray mists of the morning, andâ€"a wet and weary mule stepped ashore, and he haad gratefully over his salvation from the cruel waves. 7m“ The “ sea-devil " proved to be harmless, and the assembled crowd dispersed, with many a joke and laugh at Mr. Barnea's ex- pense. . _ A - e. . ,‘I ,I____J lyeâ€"n In a few days the mystery was all cleared up, when it became known in the community that on the evening preceding the strange adventure the steamer Kent. bound down the hey, collided with a. Boston steamer near Seven-Foot Knoll, and went down. A gentleman had shipped two mules at Balti- more, and before the steamer sank some one had cut them loose, and they swam away. One of them reached the shore opposite the scene of the collision, but the other one drifted down the bay until it appeared as a. sea-devil to Mr. Barnes. The owner eventu- ally recovered both mules, for the story of the strange adventure soon spread to Belti- more, and enabled him to trace his property. Boston people nowadays have their super- fluous teeth drawu by means of electricity. Inasmuch as all new ideas in the arts and sciences are spread from this enlightened metropolis originally, and from hence ex‘ tended over the country, there is little doubt that sooner or later this new method will supersede laughing gas and ether in other big cities of the Union. The process in ques~ tion is very simple, scarce any apparatus being required beyond an ordinary two cell battery, with vibrator attachment. This attachment is a thin strip of metal, fastened at the ends, which is made to vibrate a thousand or more times per second by the electric current. At each vibration the cir- cuit is cut OE and renewed again. the effect being to give a perfectly steady flow of the mysterious fluid. In order to make sure that the flow is quite satisfactory the oper- ator tunes the machineâ€"assisted by a little reed tuning pipeâ€"until the strip of metal sinus “ A." So far, so good. on -,u Now to the battery are attached three wires. Two of them have handles at the ends. and the third is hitched to a forceps. The patient in the chair is given a handle to hold in each hand, and the current is turned on gradually until itbecomes painful. Then he is told to grasp the handles as strongly as possible, the electricityâ€"‘having been switched ofi for a momentâ€"is turned on again suddenly, and the dental surgeon applies his forceps simultaneously to the tooth. The instant the molar is touched, it, as well as the parts surrounding. becomes electrified and obsolutelv insensible to pain. When it is withdrawn from the socket. the subject of the operation feels not the slight- est disagreeable sensation. A jerk and the tooth is out, the patient drape the handles and the afi'xiir is 6ver. Is the best remedy for coma extant, It acts quickly, makes no sore spots and eflects a radical cure. A hundred imitations prove its value. Take neither substitutes offered as good nor the close imitations of the genu- ine too often ofi'ered. There was a curious sensation at a. church wedding at Bridgeport, Conn., recently. The groom, a person of violent temper, swore because the bride and her p why were behind time. During his ravinge [.0 his best man the bride arrived and overheard her fi- ancee roundly abusing her and swearing ont- rageonely. The bride's face assumei a dead- ]y pallor. She approachev‘. the altar and mood motionless until the . .‘unater asked if rageously. The bride’s face assumei a dead- ly pallor. She approacbe". the altar and stood motionless until the v .‘unaher asked if she “would love, cherk' and obey,” to which she replied in 3. ch .~ ringing voice, “ Not by a long shot," and majestically marched out of the edifice.
