A CALL FROM A COON.


have had but one call from a coon,
that am aware of, and | fear we did
not treat him with due hospitality. He
took up his quarters for the day in a
Norway spruce, the branches of which
nearly brushed the house. Ihad noticed
that the dog was very curious about
that tree all the forenoon. After dinner
his curiosity eliminated in repeated
loud and confident barking. Then | be-
gan an investigation expecting to find
a strange cat, or at most a red squirrel.
But a moments scrutiny revealed his
coonship. Then how to capture him
became the problem. A long pole was
procured, and sought to dislodge him
from his hold The skill with which he
maintained himself amid the branches
excited admiration. But after a
time he dropped lightly to the ground
not in the least disconnected, and at
once on his guard against both man
and be asst, The dog was a coward,
and dared not face him. When
the coon's attention was diverted the
dog would rush in; then one of us would
attempt to seize the coon's tail, but he
faced about so quickly, his black eyes
cleaning, that the hand was timid
about Selling him. Only but finally in
his skirmishing with the dog | caught
him by the tail, and bore him safely to
an open ~flour-barrel, and he was our
prisoner. Much amusement my little
boy and | anticipated with him. He
partook Of food that same day. and on
the second day would eat the chestnuts
in our presence, Never did he show the
slightest fear of us or of anything, but
he was unwcaried in his efforts to re-
gain his freedom, After a few DAYS we
put a strap upon his neck and kept him
tethered by a chain, But in the night.
by dint OF some hocus-pocus, he got the
chain unsnapped and made off, and is
now, trust, a patriarch of his tribe.

Staten islanders in the vicinity of
Fort Wadsworth relate an old story
about a tree which has grown up on a
dock extending into the water from A
cliff just above the quarantine station.
The dock is constructed of piling and
logs and extends from the shore n dis
lance of about fifty feet, of which
twenty-five feet are made of earth de-
posits between the piles. In the CEN
ter OF this earth rises an enormous will
low tree, around which "a fence has
been built. Outside of the fence heavy
benches are placed, on which the fish
ermen and others who use the dock can
take their comfort. 1t is related that
when the dock was first started in n
small way, nearly twenty-five years
ago, Il small sprout came floating down
the water and was drifted so that il
took root in the earth, where it has
now become a great tree. The fisher
mcn of that day discovered it taking
root, Strengthened it up, protected it
with environments and have ever since
defended it, SO that they will not per-
init a person even to cut a twig from it.
They say that the tree has been lucky
to the dock and that any man who de-
spoils it brings bad luck to them.-N.
