Outside Of John d. Rockefeller and

CAUGHT N a TRAP.

Henry Armstrong, Q Fish Springs
(Cal) settler, gave an exhibition OF
iron nerve few days ago which sur
passed anything heard Of thereabout
for some years. Armstrong had been
bothered by the depredations OF wild
animals, which nightly raided his pas
lures, and in an effort to thin out the
pests he set several strong steel traps
about the ranch, three Of them being
for big game.
Two wildcats and q coyote were
trapped the first night and thres
coyotes on the third night, and few
nights later Armstrong hurried to one

and found a mountain lion between
the steel teeth. He dispatched the lion
and was setting the trap again. when
the teeth came together. sinking into
his middle finger.
Armstrong was imprisoned In such
a way that he could not open the trap.
and after firing of his revolver and
loudly calling in vain effort to at
tract attention, he got out his pocket
knife and deliberately cut off the
finger. This was, an easy task, though
painful, for the trap had crushed the
bone and cut open the flesh. He then
went home, and his brother dressed
the injury.
