to capture a huge deer alive for a pri­

has captured the biggest deer ever

300-pound buck—by tbe simple expedi­
ent of ualug opium pellets instead of
the uaual lead bulleta In bunting. Hen-
ham had a druggist make him the shot
he wanted—a mixture of gum arable,
flour paste and opium. Then ho went
to watch for the deer, which all of
the gulden had. because of Its atse,
refused to allow hunters to kill. When
he saw the big fellow he cut loose
with his gun, and he caught up with
the deer two houra later, when It had
fallen asleep In some balsams. When
the deer woke up It had been boxed.—

at New York from Horta, Fayal, by the
Holland America freighter Zaandyk,
which was forced to pul Into thla port

La Habra was quickly ablaze from

were on the forward part of tbe tank

be burned, tbe tank's skipper ordered
all bands to leave ber in lifeboats and
