ravine to get a drink of water when l
turned the top Of a fallen tree and ran
plump against as pretty a sight as you

ION a grassy spot, in the full blaze
Of the sun, lay four mountain lions fast

On top of the numbness came a feeling
that l vas breaking out with a rash.
Then the hair at the back of my neck
began to curl and twist and crackle,
and a minute later even hair on my
head was on end. I had on a soft felt
hat, and I am sure that hat was lifted
up an inch or two.

queer appearance mystifed him. His
actions were followed by another, and
ten seconds later the four made a sneak
down the ravine, growing and whining
as they went.
'They had been one a minute before

hat on the ground at my feet. There

GIVES UP THE BRIDGE.
And Mr.. Rochelle Lost the Ten Dollars He
Might Have Owned.

Mr.. w. t. Rochelle has given up the
bridge.
Yesterday Deputy Sheriff Byrum called
on him at his home on the Neuse River,
in Barton's Creek township, with claim
and delivery papers for the bridge which
fioated away from Lawrence during the
late heavy freshet.
Mr.. Rochelle was in a pleasant mood
and no papers were needed. He released
all claim on the property and said that
he was sorry that he had put the county
commissioners to any trouble in the mat
ter. This ends the contest, as the bridge
is now in the hands of the county au-
thorities and no contest is 70 be made.
Mr.. Rochelle is the loser. At the begin
ming of the affair the county commission
ers were ready to give him $40 for his
trouble and labor in saving the bridge.
AS matters now stand the commissioners
will not pay anything for it.

Element of the Chinese indemnity, and
question has arisen in reference to who
