Fighting. on the Rus sian frontier was confined, to small engagements between cat airy out posts until 6 o'clock last evening, but nn attack was then made by the Bus slau Invaders on Johannlsburg, which is occupied by a squadron of tho llth Pomeranian Dragoons.

HUNTER KILLS COMPANION (Continued from tato 1) tsN "Sounded Like a Deer" Dodge maintains that tho nofcc sounded like a deer and that Okm came into camp from the wrong di rection. Olson has lived in this sec tion about four years and has an nged mother in Wisconsin, where the body will be shipped Ibis week. He has n brother employed as n cruiser bv the Weed Lumber company of Weed, Cnl. When the first new of the tragedy reached this city it was reported that Martin Enekt-on, forot super visor, was the victim, nnd friends in this city took steps to notify rela tives in the east. Afterwards this report was traced down nnd found untrue. ProsecHttosi Promised Ittgid prosecution of all deer hunt ing accidents was announced this morning by Prosecutor Kelly. "Ev ery amateur hunter who goes into the woods and shoots at noises nnd kills 11 human instead will be brought be fore tho grand jury on a charge of manslaughter, irrespective of who they me, or where they come from," snid Prosecutor Kelly. "The temper of tho people has been tried to the limit by careless ness thut makes it dangerous to go mto the woods during the first days of the, deer season! Any hunter who shoots a fellow man for a deer cuu expect igorous prosorution from my office without fenr or favor." Coroner Kellogg slnted this morn ing that en route to the scene of the tragedy the shooting sounded like the rattle of musketry in n skinnihh but tle, and that the whizz of the bullets could be distinctly beard. In the evening the firing increased, nnd it was evident that the hunters wero taking desperate chances on securing a deer, their ardor imperiling the lives of men nnd stock. ' Jjiws Safeguard Hunters Tho game laws amply safeguards hunters, providing thut hunters wuit until they see the horns oflhe buck before firing, nnd also prohibits tho shooting of deer after sundown nnd at a salt lick. It is generally con ceded that these regulations are ob served more in the theory Minn the practice. Two deaths resulted in tho closing days of the 1013 season from hunt ers being mistaken for deer, Wilbur Kim e mistaking George Iiighain for a deer near Trail, and a similar mis take in the Dead Indian country re sulting in the death of one of the Conger brothers at the bund of a brother. News of tho last accident cast u damper on the hunting spirit, und many this morning announced their intention of waiting unti) the first deer bunting excitement had died down before venturing into the woods. safeguurd the independence, of Del gium.

The German point of view in regard to the viola tion of neutrality In llelgliitu was ex plained at the German embassy us follews: "The German general slaff has been reliably Informed that French troops are assembling In great num bers on tho Belgian frontier pre paratory to crossing. "Tho Gorman government there fore Informed tho Belgian govern ment that If for strategical reasons German troops wore compelled to tra verse Belgian territory this move should not bo considered In nny way a warlike measure directed against llelglum, b'ut only as a necessity lm- poiod by French Initiative and that It Belgium otfora no armed resistance to such n movement Germany will guarantee tho Belgian government the maintenance of Its territorial In tegrity and sovereignty and tho-fult-est compensation for any Inconven ience caused by tho passage of the Imperial troops." Tho German embassy alsq stated that it was quite certain no questions would arise In connection with Ger man troops crossing the Dutch front ier or in auy way Interfering with that neutrality.
