WHAT ANIMAL IS THIS9
Strange Beast Soaring People Near West
Street in This City.

eAE&Sk IN AAAa AthNs
A Wild animal Of some sort, about the
size Of dog, is making its headquarters
in the center of the city off North Main
street. At any rate, John Connlek. the
lunch cart man, and Policeman Frank Ha-
mel are ready to take oath as to his exis-
tence. Both declare the animal is not a
cat nor is it dog However, the resi-
dents near the corner of North Main and
West streets need have no particular fear
for their safety.
Mr.. Conniek had the closest aequaint-
anee with the animal Last Thursday
morning after O'Clock, as he was going
home from business and had almost
reached his door on West street he was
startled by kissing sound which was 50
sudden and fierce that he dropped two
pals and some plates which he was carry
ing. The racket scared the animal, what
ever it was, and it jumped away with long
leaps. Mr. Connick recovered from his
scare soon enough to get a glimpse Of the
animal which be says was about the size
Of dog. And to add to his proof he says
the animal made SO much noise that he
could hear him as he leaped along.
The next day he told his experience to
the policemen but received laugh and a
declaration that it was only cat How
eTer, he told the policemen that they might
nave a similar experience, and sure
enough, the following night as Policeman
Hamel was coming up Main street, near
West, he was startled by fierce kissing
not great ways from him He could not
see the animal but he declares that the
kissing was too strong for cat.
This Is not the first time that the
strange beast has been seen as it is re-
ported that two young men saw what was
probably the same animal on Merchant
street short time before. They reported
the unusual actions Of the animal but they
we're unable to make out what 1t was.

THE TRAPPING OF EELS.
Peculiar Industry THAI: Is Carried On
In New Yori. Stntc on the
Oneida River.

A small 9ut very interesting New
York industry, which is threatened with
total extinction, is the catching Of eds
IN eel traps in the Oneida river, at
faushdenhoy. Tor mary years the resi-
tents Of this pretty little village have
tuilt their eel traps, or wcirs, year after
year, without any fear Of molestation;
but row they are face to face with a
threatened lawsuit, which, if success
Iul, will totally destroy their l%ivelihccd,
gays the New York Tribune. Tho fight
against them is bciEg made by farmers
living along the river bank between
Caughdenhoy and Oneida lake, and along
the western end of the lake. who claim
that the building Of the traps causes a
Use in the river sufficient in many in
taECes to food their lCwlands along the
water front. The suit, If brought, will
doubtless be against the state, IS fish
,rmen are permitted by law to build
these traps; but the ultimate result
would be, should the suit be successful,
'aat the state would forbid their use.
This phase Of the question is troubling
the fishermen very much, aId this can
be eagiiy appreciated, when it is stated
that C~aughdonhOy has been built up
practically on cells. there being 10 other
business IL the village. except farming
on a limited scale. This fishermen claim.
and with apparent truth, that as their
traps are never over IS inches in htieht,
It is pos ible for than to cause 6 rise
in the river sufficient to ncod larGg lyire
'wo and thr.o miles further up the river,
let alone the western shore Of the lake.
It is probable that the excessively high
waters CT the last We years in that re-
zion have had nest to DO WITH the food
