issued orders March 7th that messa
ges containing fifty words may be
filed in their offioes to be transmitted
at night and delivered early next
tuorning The idea Is during Hint
period while the wires are not apt to
be busy they may lie kept in use by
tending these messages, wblch will
.enable longer communications to re
eent, and unnob quicker than by let
ter. The rate for a 50-word night

in such an event there would be
more than one,' and perhaps more

Dedicated to Mary Madeline MiCawley
Slowly, calmly sailing along
Beneath the full moon's light,
The Rondolier sings his sweet song
In the stillness of the night.
It is a love song and his voice
Betrays his feelings deep.
Rich but tretrnlons he sings:
"My heart Is yours to keep."
The cadence dies, he steps awhile
And rests upon his oar.
He's dreaming of the dark eyed maid
Then renews his song once more
Under the bridge the echo sends
The words back, "Yours to keep."'
In a vision dim he sees Marie
By angels guarded la ber sleep.
The moon behind the clond is bid
The southern zephyrs blow, .
The gondolier now plies his oars
Through the waters as they flow.
He is homeward bound, and aa hfc glides
Along, he gains the steep
And with buoyant step he whistles low
"My heart Is yours to keep."

Dogs Killing Deer,
Hiram A. Rake, state forest longer
at Notch writes that March 3rd
deer was chased by two dogs thru
his field and the deer ran within
few feet of his hoose. He got his
gun and shot one cf the dogs bnt the
other escaped. The deer was so
tired out that he caught and now has
It and will keep it until it is able to
care for itself. The dcg9 had bitten
tbe deer in several places and if they
had not been Intercepted would have
soon killed the deer. There have
been three deer killed there durfrig
the past winter by dogs to the writ
er's knowledge.
He says the law allows a hunter to
kill but one deer with horns, but the

In danger because they cannot so

the dogs have killed more deer dar
ing the winter than hooters did in
the open season in November. He
thinks the legislature should pass a
law that no dog should be allowed to
run at large, but that he should be
always under the control of the
owner. Owing to the deep snow this
