n WARY COON.
How He Eludcs Pursuers-A Great jumper.
Coon Dogs.


Tho coon is a wonderful jumper. He
can clear al immense distance in height,
considering his small size and apparent
clumsiness. But 10 is in jumping from q
tree that his nerve Is shown best. Lathrop
tells Of n coon he freed once in a walnut
tree, hollow at the top. A professional
climber, a lineman from % n~eighboring
town, was set up after him, and tho coon,
hard pressed, jumped out over his head
and was of. The height from the ground
to where tho coon jumped from was esti-
mated at 90 feet, yet the coon landed sale
ly and ran of to o considerably distance.
The dogs got at him promptly, u the
ensuing battle was n hard one, every one
Of the dogs and men bearing away some
mark from the coon's teeth.
A curious thing about this jumping OF
the coon Is that when he lands on the
ground there II no pause, however mo-
mentary, before he continues running
along the ground. He scuds away from
where he lands IS promptly as n billiard
ball would bound. or course IL he iands
OF n ledge or q projecting rock when jump
ing from q great height he will be hurt
and possibly killed, bat let the ground

IL whore the wise old coon dog also puts In
his finest work. The coon always selects
as big a tres ~ possible, and II he has been
freed before and esoapsd he vii jump cut,
