CAT KILLS A RATHER.
Saves Three Girl from an
Attick by the Snake.

George Mathis, farmer living near
Red Jackets mound short distance
from Geneva, \. Y. has 3-year-old
daughter and a large Maltese tomcat.
The child was in the garden recently
playing with the cat. its almost CON
slant companion. She saw rattle
snake, about four feet long, down the
path.
She started toward it to play with it.
The cat looked after her and saw the
snake. As the child approached, the
RATHER threw itself into coil, sounded
the alarm and prepared to strike. When
the child came along within striking dis
lance. streak of gray flashed through
the air, struck the snakes tail and
bounded to one side.
The RATHER turned to attack the cat,
which backed up, yowled and spit. The
child ran screaming toward the house.
Mr.. Mathis, who was close at hand,
heard the scream, picked up club and
ran into the garden. He saw the snake
strike at the cat and the latter dodge the
blow. Before the snake could recover
itself the cat rushed at the snake, but
failed to secure hold
1t bounded ont of danger while the
snake recoiled. Mr.. Mathis approached
and the snake turned its head. The cat
rushed again. caught the snake just be-
hind the head and held on. The RATHER
twisted. wriggled, writhed and rolled
over. 1t threw the cat off it's feet two
or three times, but could not loosen its
hold. In Il few minutes the RATHER
Strengthened out and lay still except for
Il jerky movement in its tail. 1t was
dead
The cat has been Il snake killer since
it was kitten. Mr.. Mathis says he
would not take $1,000 for it.
