TILLAMOOK HEADLIGHT, NOVEMBER 27, 1902.
IJUMPING THE DEER.
“Jumping a deer” is a highly-at*
tractive phrase, quite apt to make
a tiugbng in the back hair of the
tenderfoot who hears it for the first
time. 11 is also intensely satisfac­
tory to the chap who always ha® U
shave before wooing nature, says Out­
ing. You may, indeed, get a good
»hot in this way, and it is generally
the only way to see the grandest of
all the nights of the woods—deer
running through a windfall. To see
the glossy curves of fur curl over the
lofty Ings that lie piled on each other
in boundless confusion is well worth
n trip to the woods, while for him
who loves the rifle a« I do, more for
what cannot be done with it than for
what can, there is no such target
elsewhere. But for the tyro who i<
dying to get that first deer “jumping
a deer” generally mean*» out of sight
and out of hearing both.
For the
de<T that goes off to lie down after
feeding does not go to sleep, but to
ruminate and tnkc life easy.
Once In a great while one falls into
a doze, but almost always the bend
ts well erect and all senses keen for
danger. And even if one is in a doze
k limy slip away without your sus­
pecting its existence, for sleep dead­
ens little of the senses of this wary
animal. The man who “wouldn’t
riioot such an innocent creature as a
deer” should by all means see one
getting out of a heavy windfall, while
the man who loves game that can
get away can here find the attraction
of tbe woods at its climax.
WOODEN INDIANS MUST 00.
The fairy tale of money growing
on bushes was lately realized ¡dong
the right of way <rf the Burlington
railroad between Hyannis and Alli­
ance, says a Lincoln (Neb.) report.
A gang of section men were at
work, when one of them noticed
something that looked like a bill wav­
ing from the tangled top of a sun­
flower growing by the roadside. He
Investigated. It was a treasury note
for $10.
He walked a few steps farther and
there, nodding from a branch of a bit
of dog fennel, was another bill of sim­
ilar denomination.
He called to hi« companions, and
the entire gang threw down their
tools and started on a money hunt.
For three hours they searched up and
down the right of way «and far afield.
At almost every yard their trou­
ble was rewarded by finding either
a five er a ten-dollar bill. Some bills
were tangled in the tops of weeds,
others half hidden in bushes along
the fence, and still others in the
stubble of the field.
The entire day’s clean-up of the
eight was $2,135. When the find was
reported, word came from headquar­
ters that ■ money pouch containing
$3,500 had been lost from an express
shipment the day before.
The supposition is that the bag fell
out of the open car door and was
ground to pieces under the whselfl.
and the contents were scattered to
the winds. This hypothesis is sup-
ported by the later discovery of por­
tions of the damaged pouch.
RELIGION OF THE BLANKET.
Tobaeco Store Warns That Are C ob «
demined to Retirement la
New York City.
One of New York’s busy municipal
commissioners says th«* wooden Indian
uniat get off the walk. If the cigar
dealer needs him in his business he will
be obliged t«> take him Inside and give
him house room. Anyway, he cannot
be allowed to encumber t.he ridewalk,
»aya-t-hVCleveland Plain Dealer.
Of course it may 1* pos-rihie that the
commissioner is moved by an honeatde­
sire to keep t>he walks clear, and then
again lie may l>e under the infl lienee of
the Society for Prevention *of Cruelty
to Aged Wooden Indians. A tm !, really,
it must be admitted that there are
cases where interference would seem
to I m * justified. There are wooden In­
ci kins of extreme age who are still
forced Ho do their servile duty a-t all
season» of the year, ami in the mo»t
inclement weather.
With cramped
muscles and ossified limbs they have
stood oil guard for many decades.
Many of them are gray and dingy
and weather beaten, but they never
coin-plain. ' Some of them have cracked
open and “lost their feathers, and
warped the hr fingers, and dropped their
wampum. Why. there are cigar deal­
ers so unfeeling ns to refuse them even
acowt of paint when t he mercury drop»
to zero.
PLAY BILLIARDS.
It I n a religion bo make a Navajo
blanket». Through the kinky, bristling
t wine of tbe warp are woven the hopes
nnd aspirations of an immortal soul.
In t he TTcrin color» are expressed the
ardors of pa-srionate heart», the sand­
storm« they have faced, the cloud­
burst« under which 1-hcir backs have
bent, the »miling sumrhlne that has
dried their wool, all the ail verse nnd
good fortune« that have l>efnIlea are
wrought* in to the iiitricfK« design«. The
squaw pray» as she ptinhes the wool
cart, anti ?he prays n* she twirls tbe
dis-taff in her hands or rolls it*on her
thigh: Khr pray« ns she arranges the
healdfs; she pray? «»she lustily pounds
down the woof strand« with her scrub
oak Ixatten, says the Southern Work­
man.
A blanket is nil a prayer, a human
documents a biography bright with the
joy tints of canary yellow, dark with
the olive green of jmin. One is drawn
t-o it because one’» heart »« moved by
its ineffable, intangible hnmnnness.
One iw stmngely moved to both Inn
ter and tear« by it* exquisitely variant
colors, each expressing nn emotion by
its wnrmth of blcsnded filers, each
throbbing to a note of triumph or of
woe.

Somebody has discovered that ¡>eo-
ple in France are not playing billiard«»
ho much as they did formerly.
Over
thia announcement has arisen a lam­
entation.
i'liybicianM have joined in it aa well
ns lay admirers of the game. They
declare that its disappearance would
be a misfortune from a sanitary point
of view.
The game, they »ay, give* just the
exercise they need to a great number
of people who without it would take no
exercise at ail. While involving no
»ever» phy sical exertion, it keep» the
muscle» in shai>v, stimulates the cir­
culation. help» the digestion anil re­
quire» just enough mental effort to
give the nervou» system a rest from

ing a revival of it* popularity.

A superabundance of fruit as now
abounds in the New England orchards.
The limbs of the apple and pear trees
hang heavy under the weight of their
enormous yield, and the ground be­
neath the treeH is covered with the de­
caying droppings. In some localities
fine apples may be had for the picking,
and an offer of half a dollar a barrel
for the fruit on t*he tree is eagerly ac­
cepted in the rural diatrkts. Thou*
sands of bushels are being fed to ths
cattle and pig« anil the cider mill» are
glutted with raw material for the
preaxes. It se«*ms a pity to see such
a large quantity of fine fruit going to
waste. It is almost »uperfluous to of­
fer suggestion ill the line of thought­
ful philanthropy to Dr. Hale, but the
glutted condition of the orchards sug­
gest* that it might be a good idea to
renew hi» farmer»' fruit offering

supply of free fruit to the poor people
of Boston when it wa, originally un­
dertaken. Undoubtedly » great many

MONEY GREW ON BUSHES. ‘
Elizabethtown, the county seat of
Esses, in ths Adirondack*, possesses a
comedy jail, according to tl«e Philadel­
phia lwcger. It is small, having win­
dows secured by wooden bars and a
jailyard inclosed by. a solid fence of
thi ee-quarier-inch boards, which a
healthy male could push over with hi*
shoulder. But the prisoner* rarely, if
ever, attempt to escape. Some good
stories are told by Judge Kellogg,
Judge Hand and other resident*. It i*
a custom to allow the prisoners out
on parole, so that they may cut the
grass on neighboring lawns, do gar­
den work, or repair roads for the vil­
lage or county Recently one prison­
er, wh«» should hate returned at eight
o’clock, did not apply for admission
until nearly an hour later. Tbe war­
den angrily demanded to know the
reason, and added: "Don’t let this
occur again, or I will not allow you
to come in. I lock the door at etght
o'clock, and won’t open it in the future
for you." Another accused of and
awniting trial for mnn«lnughter, over­
stayed his parole an«! pleaded as an ex-
cu*e that as It was Saturday he
thought he would go and *j>en<l Sun­
day with his wife, returning to the jail
on Monday morning.

every state at some season; its north­

arctic circle, while it is known to go
southward to northern South America
and the West Indies. Comparatively
few of the birds which move north­

south of the international line. It is
quite true there are breeding ground?

Newfoundland is probably the only
country in the world where venison,
salted or fresh, is a staple article of
diet for the masses. The coast folk
nwike their plans with method and de­
liberation. says Outing. From the har­
bors where they reside they go in their
boats to the rivers and fords which
strike into the interior. Whennariga-
tion is no longer possible they debark
and continue on fos>t to the deer coun­
try. They carry luirrels filled with salt
»txl sometimes go in large companies.
When the rendezvous is reached they
ramp. Then they ambush themselves
along a promising “lead” or deer track,
armed with a long six-foot muzzle-load­
ing healing guns, which they chargi
with about "eight fingers" of coarse
gunpowder and "slugs” of lead, frag­
ments of iron or bits of rusty nails,
whichever they may have. They fire
point blank into a herd of caribou, as it
passes, and living usually good shots,
contrive to kill almost anything the«

meat, for these men knew a little of
every trade, and pack it in the barrels
