Destructive
Panther.
T. C. Scurr of Dotbao, this coun
ty, iu ii K i ‘8 the following good point
relative to the protfotion of deer.
He writes: " i t takes about two
little beauties (spotted fawns) each
day to satisfy the appetite o f the
panther. I can find these little
fellows nearly every day in the
week now, and in the fall I wilt
perhaps see a hundred large deer
before I will see one of them, and
where are they? It would be
much more to the credit o f the
state to fix a bounty of not less
than $25 for the scalp of every
panther killed in the state, instead
of arresting a poor man living in
the hills for killing a buck at this
time of year. I f the state is too
poor to afford a bounty, then the
federal government ought to plaoe
a bounty on them, for I do believe
that a panther kills more deer in a
year than any half-dozen hunters.
Jt is said that a panther cannot be
caught in a trap. I have a steel
trap that weighs 42 pounds, and
daring the last rain Btorm a pan
ther killed my largest Angora
weather. The next day we found
what was left o f the goat (about
one-half) neatly covered up. we
set the trap and in four hours had
him. I have long sinoe learned
that when a panther furnishes the
bait himself he can be caught
in a trap, and in no other way
have I been able to get them in a
trap. This is my experience with
the cowar lly brute.” — Plaindealer.
The above contains several well-
taken points, but there are others
quite as applicable to this section.
There are a great number of miser
able curs and hounds kept In this
county which destroy a great num
ber of deer at all seasons of the
year, and it would not take any
great skill or sharp practice or ex
perience to locate them. One man
told us not long ago that at one
time he knew where the carcases of
seventeen deer lay where they had
been killed and partly devoured by
d o g s , an d that all w ithin
a small
radius of country.
And another
party told us but yesterday that he
bad been in the mountains and
saw men who pretended to be
sportsmen, with a string of hounds
to find their game for them. This
is contemptuously mean, cowardly
and in violation of the laws of our
state. It would be a good thing for
some of our game wardens, or their
deputies to maka their presence
felt In some sections of this and
Curry counties.

Second W e e k oi the W ar.
July 11.— A Chinese mechanic
from Port Arthur drydocks reports
that two large three funnel ships
have been missing from the Rus
sian fleet since the fight off Port
Arthur on June 23. The battle
ship Sevastopol is still undergoing
repairs, and four torpedo-boat de
stroyers are in the drydock.
This
confirms the reports of Admiral
T ogo of his victories off Port Ar
thur,
July 12th.— The Japanese are ad
vancing toward Port Arthur by
two roads, one from Dalny support
ed by the navy and the other by
the central road from Kinoom.
Several desperate battle i are taking
place and losses are reported to be
very heavy.
Port Dalny which has been part
ly destroyed by Russians before
their evacuation, is assuming again
its former condition and the mer
chants are returning to the city.
July 13th.—A correspondent of
a St. Petersburg paper reports that
the Japanese army has lost 30,000
men in killed and wounded in a re
cent battle near Port Arthur. The
report is read with some reserve
owing to the fact that Port Arthur
is practically isolated by the be
sieging Japanese arm} and there is
no possible way of communicating
with the outside world.
Japanese capture the Fort No.
14, a land side defence of Port Ar
thur.
July 14th.— Two Japanese armies
off Oku and Kuroki are closing in
on Kuropatkin's force near Ta
Tche Eiao, and a battle of the most
decisive nature is expected soon.
^ield Marshall, Count Oyamn ar
rives at Dalny, and is expected to
soon assume the supreme command
of the combined Japanese force in
Mancburea.
July 15th—The Russian loss in
the last battle at Port Arthur is
officially reported to have been
5,500 men in killed and wounded.
July 16th.—The latest dispatch
from Tokio war office denies the
previous Russian report that 30,000
Japanese were lost in a land battle
near Port Arthur.
R ussian L o sse s H eavy.
London, July 19—A dispatch
from Kuroki today states that the
Russian losses at the Motion Ling
fight were about 2,000. while the
Japanese did not exceed 300.
Suez, July 19—The Oriental
Steamship Company’s ship Malaca,
which was seized by the Russians
in the Red Sea last week, arrived
here today, commanded and man
ned by Russians. The British
company's agent was refused ad
mittance on board.
London, July 19—There is b
well defiued fooling in all quarters
this morniug that tho seizure of
the British and Germtin steamers
by the Russians marks the first
European complication in the
Russo-Japanese war.
