A HUNTER'S EXCITING DAY,
New York, October 26th.-Mr Abbott
well-known Nelson, a
sportsman, of
Bangor, Maine, in the hero of a thrilling adventure. On a recont hunting expedi- tion he encountered an enormous bull moose, and fired at it with a gun loaded with bird shot, but only wounded it. Bel- lowing with rage, the moose charged Mr Nelson, who hastily climbed a tree and sat on a brauch. It broke, however, and he fell right between the horns of the animals, which had become entangled in it. Lifting the hunter with it, the moose started off at Mr a furious pace through the woode. Nelson lost consciousness, but revived when the beast plunged into a Jake two miles wide and swam across, the hunter
holding firmly by its antlers, and succeed. ing in keeping his head above water.
When the moose reached the shore, a larger animal of the same kind appeared, and a battle royal ensued.
The unfor
tunate hunter, held fast by his clothing, was dashed about and almost mangled by the clashing horns. Finally he was hurled twenty-five feet away, bruised, battered, and bleeding..
He then watched the combat until one of the animals was killed. The victor's horns were to interlocked with those of hie dead antagonist that Mr Nelson, on recovering, was able to despatch it with his hunting knife. Whew!
-THE POPULATION OF FRANCE.
The Official Report on the population of France during 1903 has now been published in the Journal Officil. The births exceed
ed deaths by only 73,106 which is less than in 1902 (83,944), and but a trife more than in 1901 (72,398). The decrease, compared with the preceeding year, is due to the smal- ler number of births, of which there were 18,668 fewer than in 1902. On the other hand, the number of deaths has continued to diminish; in 1903 it was 7,828 less than in 1908. In 1903 the number of deaths ex- ceeded that of the births in 36 Depart- ments, whereas in 1902 that was the case in but 30 Departments, and in 1901 in 33 Departments. Compared with 1902 the diminution in the number of births was general, as it extended to 73 Departments out of the 20 into which France is divided. The largest decrease occurred in the Nord, where there were 1414 births fewer than in 1902; the Seine, 1311 fewer Bouches du Rhone, 1018; Gard, 824; and Dordogne, 749. In only 14 Departments were the births in 1903. more" numerous than in 1902. The most important increases took place in Morbihan, 710; Ille-et- Vilaine, 494; Manche, 407; Corsica, The decrease in 330; and Vosgol, 235.
the number of deaths in 1903, compared with those in 1908, took place in about half
