AS TO A WILDCATS LEAPING.
An Interesting Question PrOpounded BY
Ex-sherfn Hoffman of Pike County.

An Interesting Question Propounded BY
Ex.sherfn Hoffman of Pike County
IF a superannuated wildcat can jump
thirty three feet with apparent ease. what
might We expect from a young and active
one in the way OF leap?' ex-Sherih John
W. Hoffman of Pike county, Pa, wauteo
70 know, and no one could answer him.
Il measured wildcats jump once, the
ex-SheriH continued, that showed . clear
space of thirty-three feet between start
and finish, and it was standing jump
at that. Or. rather, it was a sitting jump.
for the animal was crouching in the snow
when it made that leap.
Il was hunting in the woods near Little
log Tavern Pond in Pike county and came
upon the track Of this wildcat. ] followed
il long distance in the snow.
Suddenly the track ended at spot
where it was plain that the animal had
stopped and crouched. i looked around
TO See what had b b,come Of the trail, and
two rods ahead of me / saw a bunch OF
pheasant feathers where the snow had
been scattered about. and from that spot
the Wildcat track led on again.
1t was plain to me, then, that the Wild
cat had been hunting for its dinner and
had discovered a pheasant wandering
about in the snow. The cat had crept up
TO within two rods Of the unsuspecting bird,
and, that either being near enough to suit
it's purpose or as near az it could get with
out alarming it's prey. had shot itself through
the air and landed on top OF the pheasant
before the bird. az quick as pheasants are,
could rise and get out OF the way.
tho rka nf
the pheasant's blood were 40 fresh on the
snow that | thought there WAS a chance
for me 10 overtake the prowler before il
got into the swamp. / hurried along on
the trail, and found that l was closer to
the wildcat than l had suspected. for over
took II before it had devoured its prey.
Not more than half Of the pheasant,
which was fine old cock. had passed down
the wildcats gullet. and the other half
never passed down. / sent a rife bullet
into the wildcats heart. and It made an
other big jump. That was straight UP In
the air, though. and it fell back dead, al
most in its tracks.
Judging from the great length of the
leap the animal made when it captured
the pheasant. expected to find It q young
and healthy wildcat. l was consequently
very much surprised to find that il was
very old one. II was poor and lank, with
a film over one eye, and scarcely q tooth
left.

CENSORSHIP OF THE PRESS.


If it is true, as so many affirm, that
happiness is simply matter Of com
parison, then the makers of American
newspapers would seem to have cause
10 be joyous indeed, says the Augusta
(Ga) Herald, when they read of the
difficulties encountered by publishers
and editors in Russia where the news
paper man stands literally between the
devil and The deep blue sea. a writer
in the Worlds Work commenting on
Russian newspapers says:
According to the experience Of the
last twenty years in Russian journal
ism, if a paper succeeds it Will be sup
pressed; if it is not suppressed 1t must
forego success. Even the most liberal
sheets must at times spread the cloak
of reactionism over their columns in
order to save themselves from annihi-
lation.
The censored papers have neither
influence nor large number of read
ers. Financially they lead very pre-
carious existence and are never heard
of outside their immediate neighbour
hood"
In commenting on the foregoing the
Editor & Publisher, a bright class pa
per says:

some persons to recognize legitimate
