KENTUCKY'S FIERY CAT.
Fights Twice Its Weight in Dog
without Turning n Hair.
From the New York Sun.


Stanton, KY, April SAIL Eastern Ken
lucky has been excity for the last four
weeks over a series of wildcat fights in
this town.
About year ago wildcat fighting was
inaugurated at Bowen, station on the
Lexington and Eastern road, ten miles
north of here. A wildcat had been caught
there and had whipped a number Of dogs.
when Sam McGraw, a half-witted fellow.
offered to fight the cat without gloves. AZ
the last moment the owners of the cat
refused to allow McGraw to fight the ami
NAL for fear the cat might kill or badly
injure him and they would be prosecuted.
Several of the young men of Stanton took
a deep interest in these cat fights, and
when they heard about month ago that
John Logan had caught wildcat on Bald
Knob Mountain, just back of stanton,
Robert Blackburn, Albert Welsh, sheriff of
Powell county; G. NJ. Derrickson, his dep
uty; Thomas Boone, and 0. c. Law com
bined to buy the brute. Sheriff Welsh and
Bob Blackburn climbed the mountain and
negotiated the purchase of the cat for S.
They brought him here the day Mckinley
was inaugurated and put him in a cage
of two-inch oak Stats.
The first fight took place on Saturday,
March 6. The cage is within a stones
throw OF the new Powell county court
house, and about thirty persons assembled
to see the fight Logan FallSner began
the fighting by putting his half-shepherd
dog into the cage The cat snarled at
him few times and jumped on the dogs
head, cutting the scalp in a dozen places
with his sharp claws. The dog ran to-
ward the door and yelled Justify. He re-
fused TO attack the cat and he was let out
Charley Petit, who saw how easily Falk-
ner's dog was whipped, declared that his
big hound, which has an enviable reputa-
ton as coon hunter. could whip the cat.
Sheriff Welsh, who was master OF ceremo-
nies, told him TO bring on his coon dog
When placed in the cage, the hound at
tackled the cat, but the cat gathered him
self for a powerful spring and landed on
the hounds head with all four feet His
scalp and yelping in agony, the hound
gave up the fight and rushed toward the
door.
The syndicate let the cat rest on sun
day. but on Monday S. II. Hardwlck in
sisted that his large hound could whip
any cat that wore hair. When put Ia the
cage the hound became so frightened that
he began TO whine and beg piteously TO
be let out before the cat Jumped on him.
The next day ". BennnEiclds bench

aud very short legs, was pitted against the

Hail, Easter Morn F.!

Hail, Easter morning, day of light,
That banishes Sins darkest night,
And Ger all lands and in all climes
Makes JOY abound thro' Easter chimes.
Ring, bells In old cathedral towers,
And humber churches hid in flowers;
For high and low, for rich and poor,
The Easter glories must endure.
II.
Long as the Earth may proudly stand,
A Risen Christ shall bless each land
Wherein His Gospel has been preached
And heather nations have been reached.
At last, when all mankind have heard,
And ev'ry heart by Grace is stirred,
This Risen Christ, in all his power
Shall bring the long sought final hour.
III.
Then earth and heaven shall pass away
AS dawns the new Eternal Day,
o let us pray that Christ the Lord,
Whose precious blood for us outpoured,
May hasten that glad day for all
Who sinners are in Adams fall,
To rise to mansions in the skies
Where there shall be no weeping eyes.
".
There, all is bright, and crowns are worns
Because Christ gave this Easter morn.
Hail, gracious day! Hail Risen Lord!
We praise Thy love with one accord,
And round Thy affairs kneel and pray
That the whole earth may feel Thy sways
Bow to Thy will, Thy praises sing,
Thou Guide and Savior, Lord and King.
V.
This is the Savior we adore,
Whose name resounds on ev'ry shore,
For in all lands, as in all clmes,
His praise is rung in Easter chimes.
This Risen Savior is the theme
From which Eternal Life doth beam,
And Easter chimes, that ring to clear,
Tell the sweet story year by year.
vi.
Hoary with age and often heard.
Yet many million hearts are stirred
BY the glad Easter anthems sung
And Easter chimes from towers rung.
How Nature blooms, how skies look bright,
In the clear Easter morning light
Life out of Death. an open'd grave,
A Risen Christ with power to save.
