CAT NEARLY KILLS HUNTER.
Farmer, Taking II For Coon, Throws
a Stone and Then Has to Fight.

Washington, Pa, April 23.-While
hunting 'coons Friday night Allison
Wright, young farmer, who lives
just over the Washington county line
in Brook county, w. Va, encountered
an immense wildcat, which killed his
two dogs and then viciously attacked
him. The maddened animal nearly
tore off the hunters right hand and
would have killed him had not three
OF Wrights neighbors arrived Just in
time to rescue him.
The cat was killed and when weigh
ed tipped the scales at AZ pounds.
When Wright saw the animal in
small tree he supposed it was a large
coon and hit it with stone. The cat
leaped to the ground and began to
fight. When almost exhausted Mr..
Wright's shouts for help brought
George Hindman, Charles Freshwater
and Thomas Flaherty. They were
well armed and soon killed the cat.
The wildcat is supposed to be one
that escaped from its cage in Rock
Springs park in October, 1906 Wright
is now in hospital in Steubenville.

New Ontario Town DESTROYED.

The new Ontario town of Latchford
on the Temiskaming & Northern On
tario railway, nine miles south of the
famous Cobalt silver mining camp,
has suffered severe blow.
At 6:15 p. m. Thursday fire started
in the new Latchford restaurant and
spread with surprising rapidity, sweep
ing the main street almost from end
to end. The loss is estimated be-
tween 100000 and $15O,OO0.
The buildings were large frame
structures in blocks, and though many
of them Were covered with iron the
fire burned SO rapidly and furiously
that little or nothing could be done
to save either the buildings or the
contents, and within two hours up
wards of 80 large buildings were
smoking ruins.
