OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
A Lection man has o showcus
in his poultry emporium and so
anxious is the public to witness
the didos that he is forced to give
an almost continuous performance.
The principal stars in the show
are o bantom rooster anda Thom-
as cat. The first act usually is q
fight between the two, in which
Thomas slaps and scratches the
rooster vigorously and the crow
er retaliates by using his utmost
endeavors to pluck out the peep
ers of the cat. Later, like the
lamb and the lion, they lie down
together, the paw Of the cat
across the rooster, who closes his
eyes. Other antics too numer-
GUS to mention are gone through
with.
Lured from their dens by the
whirr and drone Of a circular saw,
innumerable rattlesnakes q d
blue racers came from the river
bluffs two miles below Rooheport,
Saturday and crawled into the
midst of a lumber saving gang
composed of George E. Boothe
and others before the men were
aware Of their presence. Fight
ing for their safety, the men kill
ed eighteen big rattlers with from
eight to fifteen rattles, and fifty
FIVE blue racers, that measured
from four 10 seven feet. Many
others escaped into the rocks af.
ter the slaughter had progressed
for half an hour.
Last weeks county papers give
accounts that would indicate that
the wolf scalp industry was be-
coming an important one in Mis-
souri,. Two boys, aged nine and
eleven, near Relton, dug into q
creek bank and got seven young
wolves, for the soalps of which
they received dollar each from
the county. Near Arcola in Dade
County, q family Of ten young
ones brought the finder thirty
dollars. Near Odessa an old
wolf with her nine young was
killed by two farmers who found
the den In an old stump.
