Muskrat Traps In Trees.
SOMETHING WHICH AsToNIsHEs AN AGED
WooDCHoPPER.

A Toledo Ohio. gentleman relates strange
circumstance which came to his notice few
days ago. He was at Eagle Point when a
resident of that vicinity decided to cut down
an old dead tree which had been standing as
landmark as far back as the memory of
the oldest inhabitants could reach. In the
branches of this tree was an eagles nest
which had been deserted for some time past
and when the trunk came crashing down a
number of pieces of iron were seen to fall
from the collection of twigs and leaves In
vestigation showed them to be muskrat traps.
There were eight of them and several bore
evidence of having been in their peculiar
resting place for years. How they came
there is mystery which would require no
little figuring for the uninitiated to
unravel. The residents of that vicinity make
practice of setting their traps for musk
rats which abound IN the marshes and fasten
them IN a manner that is generally suppos ed
TO be secure by slipping a ring. which is the
end of a chain, over a stake driven in the
ground. These rats were evidently consid-
cred a toothsome article of food by the eagle
whose nest was close BY. When one was
caught in the trap she would seize it, and by
little effort work the ring off the stake. and
soar with the entire concern to her nest.
Then she would devour her prize and leave
the trap. after relieving II of its captive.
This mode of securing an occasional meal
was propably better appreciated by the eagle
and her young ones than by the fishermen
who lost their traps
