Susquehanna, June 2l.--Toward even
ing on Saturday, Binghamtor sew"
ing machine agent named Edwards
was driving along the highwuE near
Mcrosc. When q large wildcat " hiCh
was cruuchinG ~ the side Of tho road,
made 4 spring for the horse, and
caught the cloth covering Edwards
lap. With the butt If the whip ne
struck the wildcat across the head and
knocked II into some bushes. The ami
MAJ instantly sprang for the back of
the wagon ana clung to ii with claws
and teeth. The driver had all he could
do 10 prevent it from pouncing upon
him, and pounded the infuriated ami
nal with the heavy part of his whip
until il fell back. The wildcat chung
fast tor three or four hundred yards,
when, with a scream, it released its
hold and disappeared in the under
brush. The back of tho wagon is
scratched and bitten and shows that
the driver would have Jared badly had
tn" wildcat succeeded in reaching him.
Extreme hunger is supposed To- have
caused the animal To make the attack.
