Deer Lodge, Feb. 16.-A week ago
Fred Zeader caught a wildcat and
brought him to town. The animal
was placed On exhibition at the
Scheutz Bros saloon in a large dry
goods box. Yesterday morning, when
one of the proprietors came down to
the place, he found that the animal
had in some manner gotten outside OF
his cage during the night and bad
made a complete wreck of the saloon.
The animal had seen his reflection in
the saloon mirror and made a Carrie

opened the place saw the animal he
was in a corner and he tried to knock
it senseless with a billiard cue, but
failed, and when the wildcat was
about to jump on him he shot him.
