Minneapolis, Minn, Oct 30 â€"The deer season is already open in Wiscon- sin, and deer are being slaughtered by the hundred by sportsmen now in the woods. On November lst the season will be open in Minnesota. Owing.' to the introduction of the modern, small- calibre, long-range firearms, old time hunters look forward with apprehension to the accidents that are likely to occur. In the window of a Minpcapolis gun store hangs a harmless looking little rifle, to which is attached the signifi cant placard: “Range four and a half miles.” That simple little announce- ment means that. many men who have heretofore spent most of the month of November in the woods of northern Minnesota trill remain at home this year, and scan the newspapers for ac- counts of the deaths of unhappy hunt- ers who have been killed by these terri- ble weapons. A number of these rifles have been sold, and it is apparent. that no man within a radius of several miles of a hunter armed with one of thorn has any certain tenure oflifc. In Min neapolis alone at. least a dozen men who haven’t. missed their annual deer hunt for several years, have given it out that this year they prefer the quiet business to the hazards of deer hunt- in;r with such dangerous weapons in use in the woods. This is the first. year that these rifles have been used generally in the United States for hunting purposes, and with those who haven’t reflected on the pos- sibilities of their long range they are exceedingly popular. The long, small- cnlibre bullets. steel coated, discharged from these rifles, carry 800 yards on a dead line. There is no need for adjust able sights with such a powerful rifle. and for that reason, as well as for their comparative clreapness, they are prov- ing popular. A Minneapolis man who used one of these rifles last year says that he would like to see a law passed forbidding the use of such weapons. His change of heart was brought about by a little experience he had while in the woods last winter. He was sitting on a log smoking, waiting for his wag:- gon to come up with the supplies, when there came the peculiar moaning sound of the small-calibre bullet. It struck a tree scarcely four feet from Mr. John ston. He had hardly recovered from his surprise when another bullet passed near his head. Tire next moment Mr. Johnston was crouching behind the log. After he had recovered his equanimity be dug the ball out of the tree, and found that it belonged to one of his own men. He learned from them after- words that the man was three miles a- Everythlng way at the time the two shots were fired. “ You may think it a laughing mat ter,” said W. W. Leonard, another well known hunter, " but let me point car. a few facts. The rifles now being sold in Minneapolis and throughout the North- west have the terrible carrying power of the formidable small-calibre now in - use in the armies of Europe and in the regular army of the United States. These rill-s are warranted to kill at three miles. The steel-incnsed bullet leaves the muzzle of the rifle with each a terrible velocity that it will penetrate fifty inches of pine. Now, imagine what may happen with a party ofhnnt- crs, armed with such rifles, distributed over a ccmparative'y small area of Wooded country. One of the hunters may tire at a deer, miss his aim, and l the bullet. may go on and kill another member of the party two or three miles , away. This is no idle fear; such acci. dents often occur wirh the rifles that have been used in hunting in previous years, and which have an extreme range of not more than 1.000 yards. It may be urged that no rifle bullet canl pluct'cd a great distance in a forest without. imbedding itself in a tree trunk. but. in the slashings, where deer . are often hunted,one can sometimes see I under-brush lor miles. I contend that 5 there is no excuse for the use of such , deadly weapons. In ordinary deer] hunting he is a poor hunter who doesn't ' his Cf while his soup was cooling. stalk his game within 150 yards. course in huntiug mountain sheep and l goats the range is much longer. Bar 3 of what use is such an extreme range 7 A man can’t see his game at. two or three miles. and even it he could he couldn’t. aim within fifty feet of it.l Most Important. The discovery of what appears to be anthracite coal in the Sudbary district is of incalculable importance to Ontario should the deposit prove as large and the quality as excellent as reporrt-rl. Our manufactureas have been contiuu. ally demanding extra protection because they were at the dISudvantage of hav- ing to import eOaI. Our enormous min- eral deposits have been practically lelt undeveloped, because the mines would have to be worked at. a disadvantage, owing to their remoteness from a fuel supply. Geol0gists have been co'nticu~ ally telling us that there. was no coal in Ontario, and we have. been too easily discourang by these reports. Instead of going on hunting for coal under new conditions, or using the peat, of which there is an unlimited supply, Canadians have abandoned many projects which would have enriched the country and brought as population. With the great impulse given to min- ing operations by the gold and silver discoveries in British Columbia, we seem to be rediscovering ourselves and mahinga fresh examination of our r»:- scurccs. All the gold and silver that. is taken out of the ground in British Co» lumbia will be of less advantage to Canada than the feeling of confidence and the impulse to go on and make something out. of our country, which seem to have been born with the min- ing boom. The enormous advantage to manufacturers ,of having coal near at hand will produce a dilfcrcut couditimr of affairs. Canada, in spite of all tariffs, will always be a cheap country to live in, if it has small coal bills. to pay. There is no reason why this should not become one of the greatest manufactur- ing,r connlrics in the world if we li-rd coal here, close to our centres of popu- lation, in sufficient quantities, and those who are engaged in industrial outcr- prises undertake not. only to supply the. little neighborhood in which they live. but to do an export trade. Everything indicates an era of pros- pecting;- discovory and advancement in Canada. It but for one brief year w..- can get the eyes of the world turned upon the richness of this country’s rc- sourccs, people will come here, and what we lack is people. We have politic~. religion and race prejudice, and all that sort of thing, to sell, but. we want people, and people, when they come. should find those free institutions and broad-minded laws-which will not~prove embarrassing to strangers when they arrive and try to live with us.â€"â€"â€"Tormrr_r Star. -ywâ€" Fell 250 Feet and Lives.
