That Is why Hall, on his plea of guilty in Judge Taylor's court this rorenoon, to hunting deer after sunset, was fined S-. This story of night thrills begins with Parr and Davis going up to tho ICvergreen ranch vicinity early In tho evening on a gumshoe expe dition, because the game warden had received complaints that doer hunting was taking place nightly along the Kogue river In the Mc Cloud vicinity, and assuming a status tio position, whatever that may he. In tho dark. After they had waited some time they saw Hall drive his truck down to il field near the river, and hear ing three riflo shots later, drove down to the field where they found the truck parked and no one around. This was nbout 10 p. m. They lay await on the truck, Btlll In status quo, for about two hours, thinking they would null the deer hunter red handed when he came hack to the truck. Hut he did not come and so they drovo tho truck up to tho Crater Lake highway, found out who was tho owner, and then started to bring the truck to Medford to be used as evidence, Davis driving the truck and Parr driving in his own ' car Immediately In tho rear. In the meantime, it seems that Hall, missing his truck, induced H friend named llo'.iinson to drive him toward Medford In seurch of the truck.
