Allen F. Shiveler is now recognized as

| shooting foxes in this vicinity. Allen.
who is a fine rif1eman and an accurate
marksman, lives with his father, George
A. Shiveler, one mile south of this place.
On June Sd he leveled his rifle and
brought down a large red fox, and on
June 25th, early in the morning the
silence was again broken by the report
Of the largest and surely the strongest
shooting rifle in this vicinity, and Allen
resumed his homeward journey with a
half grown fox. The foxes have been
very annoying to Mr.. ShiveIer's poultry
for the past two months. We would
suggest that foxes would be very good
ball players for they are great for CATCH
ing fowls, and when they do they pener-
ally make q home run. A few days ago
a large fox came within a few rods of
the house and jumped fully six feet
straight up after q guinea. William Bar
refl, who lives with Mr.. Shiveler, saw
the fox and ran it to the woods with a
shot gun, but somehow the fox managed
to outrun William and he gave up the
chase. We hope he will try and run
faster the next time. 1t was noised about
that Allen would have to sit in the woods
very many lonely nights before he would
get a shot at one of those sly birds,
but we guess they had better beware.
