An Arkansas Hunters Fight with a
Panther.

J. A. Surby, who lives about twelve
miles from the city, and who cultivates a
plantation, is great hunter. Fer the past
year he had been annoyed BY large pan
tber, and until last Thursday night had
been unsuccessful in meeting the brute.
On the night mentioned he took his rifle,
which carries thirty two to the pound, and
proceeded to deer lick, where he had pre-
viou.ly erected platform in large tree.
He climbed up to the perch and ensconced
himself for nights watch for deer. lie
heard these animals walking around in the
vicinity, and kept very quiet, waiting for
their approach. While sitting there, with
his rife well 10 hand, he was astoni,hed to
see his old enemy--the cougar-g'ide
through the underground and climb into a
tree few PAGES from his stand. The beast
was watching for deer, too. Raising his
gun noiselessly, Surby took aim at TIE
magnificent animal, and the report saw binl
fall a stapeless mass on the ground Surby
I lOWfTtE HiuscH HUN HIS uuu, iui
getting all about venison in his triumph
over the panther, walded up to the dead
beast. Suddenly the corpse rose into the
air with a terrible spring, and lighting on
| Surby's side-he having lodged in the nick
of time--tore all the clothing of the LEFT
side of his body and limbs.
! A. ne swerved, the cautious, quickeyed
hunter dealt a.blow with his dubbed CUR
at the panther, smashing the stock to
atems. The wounded brute came again t
the attack, and slashed bis antagonist from
top to toe, without, however, woundins
Surby. The latter, with nothing but the
barrel Of his gun as weapon, drove ter
rible blow into the panther's skull and fiat
tened him cut.
The dimensions of the brute were niu'
feet from the tip of his nose to the end o
his tail, and he was royalty muscled and beau
tifuilv parked. The hunter low has thu
skin hanging as trophy on the outer wal
of his dwelling, and psbbs has the shatter
ed rife putting it in trim for another boa

a dog and Snake Story.

Several days ago gentleman in this city
went out into the country fowling, taking
with him an experienced pointer. After
hunting some tine he observe ed the dog come
to a sudden stop. and supposIng the dog had
stood bird, advanced to shoot it. But,
coming nearer, he noticed that the animal
was foaming at the mouth, as if suffering
from an a'tact Q. hydrophobia. Under
closer observation he discovered that the
dog was the victim of an enormous snake,
which was charming it and steaily advanc-
ing on its prey. The dog stood immorable,
perfectly transfxed. TIE gentleman spoke
TO it, but It gave no heed, SO completely was
it under the influence Of the dread charmer.
Seeing that the dog was in the most excruci-
ating agony the gentleman raised the gun and
shot the snake dead. Instantly and stimuli
taneously with the shot and the death Of the
snake, the dog fell down perfectly helpless,
and to all appearance dead. 1t revived
after some little time, but had it not been for
some timely assistance from the master, it
is believed that the poor animal would have
expired with the vicious reptile Of whose
charms it was the victim. The snake in
question was blue-racer, about four or five
feet long.-Itianta { Ga.) San,
