in practice such measures as-will verify our

Hawks Attack a Colt.
New York SIN.

Mail Carrier Miller's colt, the most docile
and placid animal in town, suddenly skipped
away from his post at the railroad station
yesterday, scaled a fence, hung the mail wagon
on the rails, and scampered across lots in a
panic. A big hawk had scared the beast.
The hawk had been silently and slowly de-
scribiag a wide circle overhead in a way Pc
culiar to his kind. The sleepy horse far be-
low, nodded, now and then wagging his ears
at a caucus of flies on his neck. OF i sudden
the hawk shot straight downward with the
swiftness of a rifle shot, struck the animal
squarely between the ears fixed it's talons in
those conspicuous and hapless ears. That
settled things for the colt. He was used to
happenings and %terrors, but the hawk had
fallen On him from the clouds. like a nutmeg
thunderbolt, barbed, feathered and e explosive.

A Scrap.

% Sunday a little free for all fight oc-
cured in the back yard of one OF our
saloons. The difficulty arose between a
man by the name Of Best and another
by the name Of Furn. The fact that it
occurred in the real of a saloon is all the
comment necessary, and all will readily
understand that there was no difficulty
between the men put simply the freaks
OF poor whiskey on frall humanity. II
the two participants have not already
sank below the line OF humane respect
and feeling, by the too frequent use Of
the stimulant. They have both no
doubt by this time repented and ale
heartily ashamed OF themselves and
have probably resolved to never touch
the stuff again.

Still we have good reports from the

are OF a very reliable and Encouraging
