York, Dec. 10.?Great excitement j in hunting circles has been caused by the killing yesterday afternoon on the farm of Mayor Paul N. Moore, two miles from York, of a 150 pound buck deer. The deer was jumped in the Union section and chased by deer hounds brought to the spot by hunters from Clover. Where the deer came from is unknown, as this Kind of game has long ago vanished, , from i ork. lhere have been reports, however, that a deer had been seen in the rugged Turkey Creek section and it may be that was the one killed yesterday, it having wandered far out of its home territory. ?
