Nice Fairy Story.

Game Commissioner Woodland is In
receipt of IL letter from James Tibbets,
q ranchman few miles south of
Meeker, Colo, which recites that one
of the greatest and fiercest battles
that he ever saw took place at his
ranch on Monday between huge
rattlesnake and buck deer. The
Lhottle continued increasingly and
fiercely for half an hour, and finally
resulted in the rattler being killed.
Mr.. Tibbets states that while he
was standing in his doorway on Mon
day morning watchinga large buck
deer which had been wandering
around his ranch for n few days he
was surprised to see the deer rear on
his hind legs and engage in struggle
with something which was wound
around its legs. Rushing near to
where the deer WAS standing the
ranchman WAS startled to see a huge
rattler, measuring easily six feet,
wound around the legs of the buck.
Climbing tree near by, Mr.. Tibbets
watched the battle for over half an
hour. 1t was about an even struggle,
but finally the buck succeeded in eX-
Treating himself and dashed the
snake against a rock, killing it.-Den-
yer News.
AS there il nobody living in the
vicinity of Meeker named James
Tibbets, we can take it for granted
that the above is but one of the num-
erous fairy stories that city reporters
are SO apt to bite at.
