"a Gray Attempt to Rob Bald of His
Breakfast
On a recent evening small party of
gentlemen, most all of whom had tinges
of sporting proclivities In the blood dis
cussirg the subject of chicken fighting
and generally regretting it's decadence
as a bright feature in the realm of
sport. An old farmer from Rap
pahannoek county, Va. broke into the
conversation. i
Gentlemen said he, "fn my time I
have seen some bang-up chicken fights;
some be-yu-ti-ful ones, but the greatest
fight ever saw between birds in all my
born days was contest between a bald
eagle and a gray eagle near my old
place in Rappahannock.
THE fight took place on the bank of
the river. couldn't forget it if I lived
to be as old as Methuselah, I was the
only spectator, and saw the struggle
from start to finish. The bald eagle had
caught a muskrat, and was about to
eat it for breakfast, when the gray eagle
scared down and attempted to rob the
other one of his prey. Then began the
combat, and how the feathers flew!
They fought with wings, beaks and
talons. and l could hear the talons
crack when they struck and tore each
other. The sounds made by their wings
as they buffeted one another were like
explosions of musketry, while their
screams and yells sounded demoniacal
The battle lasted fully fifteen minutes,
and wound up with victory for badly,
who drove the gray eagle away and
then resumed his interrupted breakfast.
"Oh, yes there are a great many
eagles up in my part Of the state" said
the old agriculturist, in reply to ques-
ton s.There are plenty of high rocks
and lofty trees wherein they build their
nests. We farmers do not give them
any latitude. however. Whenever one
OF these big birds is seen soaring about
the poultry yard, or, in fact, anywhere
on the farm, it's johnnie get your gum
because it not infrequently happens
that good sized chickens, young lambs,
or little pigs are carried away by them
know gentleman whose little son, a
boy about years of age, was attacked
by an eagle, and but for the promptness
of some of the farm hands in coming to
his resucue the child would have been
seriously injured beyond doubt

the suspicion is wholesale and is mo

public by a piece of paper fastened to
the middle panel of the closet door in

1t reads as follows:
"Notice-Will the attorney that car

The Bible and the Empire state
EXPRESS.

A Bible student has recently been fgur-
ing on how long it would have taken the
people to make the journey from Dan to
Beersheba if they could have had the
State Express. He figured that the train
would have made this journey in less than
three hours, although from reading of the
account in the Bible one would think it was a
long journey, and it was for those days with
their limited means of transportation.
Ezekiel, the Chaldean prophet, had in his
minds eye something like the Empire State
