MINER FOUGHT WITH WILDCAT

Il IS an interesting experience
for man to come out of his cabin
at night and he assaulted by a wild.
cat, says the Tonopah Bonanza.
This is what happened to J. w.
Lasson, who is in charge of t c
Elftman holdings at Golden Arrow,
The other night, according to sto-
ry told by George l.. Bailey, who
is in town from there.
LIs51n heard a commotion out
side his cabin, in which his pet cat
seemed to be mixed up. He went
out to investigate and discovered
that some animal had his cat down
and vas giving il all the worst of it.
Tie moment Mr.. Lasson showed
up, however, the animal sprang
for him and got a claw into ca ch
souIdcr, ripping and tearing the
cloth into shreds. Mr.. Lasson
managed to get a half Nelson on
the maddcned animal and threw II

stunning it. and before II revived

TALSTOHS LAST WORDS

Before he passed from earth,
the great Tolstoi left this farewell
message to the world:
Instead of returning with evil,
try to return with good; to say
nothing i'll of men; to act kindly
even with the OK and dog. Live
thus one day. two days or more and
compare the state of your mind
with its state in former days.
Make the attempt and you will see
how The dark. evil modes have
passed away and how the soul
happiness has increased. Make the
attempt and you will see that tie
gospel of love brings not merely
profitable words, but the greatest
and most desired of all things"
