HARMONY, Pa. Oct. 5.-Up to last Sunday

David Cornell's farmhouse There had been
sixteen Of them. None OF them is left now. ow-
ing to the persistence OF CornelIs dog Crockett
in gathering the ring-tailed little animals in.
There isn't as much Of the dog Crockett, either.
as there was before he started in on his cooning
campaign.
Crockett is yellow dog. not much bigger than
coon himself. A little more than three weeks
ago one morning he came limping In from the
woods. Both ears were slit into tatters, one eye
was closed. and the dew claw OF one foot was
torn off. Crockett lay by for a few days and
was doctored up. He had tackled something In
the woods that had done him up nicely. but he
biding his time. At last he trotted
of To the woods again one evening"
and was gone a long time. When he
came back he had coon with him.
killed the coon, and it was then surmised that
this coon had been one OF others that the dog
had got among ON his former visit 20 the woods.
much to his disadvantage. and that Crockett
was now having his little revenge.
The surmise was correct and for fourteen sue
cessive nights the dog came in with coon. Last
sunday he took stroll TO the woods again.
II wasn't long before the sound of his

got mixed mp with. The sight was worth see
coons.. One a big male: Crockett: had down. and
one. a female. was on the dogs back, scratching
and biting and making the hair fly in a manner
that threatened TO leave Crockett without much
OF his coat on his skin II the fight went on
much longer.
The dogs master didn't interfere, and at last
Crockett got the male coon bv the throat, and
few vicious shakes and crunches removed him
from the fray. Then the dog lay down. and
rolling on, the female forced her to quit her
hold, which was the worst thing she could have
done, for Crockett seized her by the throat and
shook the life out OF her as he had out OF her
and had TO be helped home. although he tried
his best to get there alone and dragging one OF
the cOons. He hasn't been able to get out after
any revenge since, but IL is thought that he has
cleaned out the entire gang OF cOOns that made
II so unpleasant for him ON his initial trial OF
prowess with them.

After the Saloon Keepers.

MEMPHIS, August 21.-The Grand
Jury today returned another large
batch of indictments against saloon
keepers, merchants, real estate
dealers and others who have been
doing business without license. This
makes a total of 767 true bills found
so far and the investigation is still
being pushed. Two hundred delin-
ouents we're arraigned in the Grim
inal court today and their trial set
for tomorrow. Theloophole through
which they expect to escape con-
viction is to attack the constitu-
tionallty of the law and this will be
their line of defense.
