Kill 'En,

A few days ago Mrs. Leslie had
hen to hatch seven fine Plymouth
Rock chicks. The second night big
rat got four of them. A steel trap
was set in his run and covered lightly
with litter to hide the trap. That
night Mr.. Rat stepped his foot in the
trap while on his hunt for chickens.
Then next night his mate did the
same thing. That broke up this pair
of huge, dirty thieves. But this was
not all. There was crowd of mice
and smaller rats fooling around. A
feast of corn. oatmeal, and meat was
spread and covered up. They found IL
and ate it all. They invited the whole
tribe the next night to the feast.
They found it-sweetened corn meal
whole corn, biscuit and oatmeal, and
went at it with gceful relish. But
alas A little strychnine had been
mixed in the feast, and that was the
last of the tribe. They were slain by
wholesale. Look out for the rats
now, that young chickens are coming.
Trap 'em, poisen 'em, shoot em,
slay 'em anyway to get rid of 'em.
If everybody would go after the
pests they would soon be thinned out.
BE careful with poison, but kill the
rats.

MOnahans Business Men

In Car Lots

Monahans, Texas Oct. 18.-JOhn Ste
phens, son Of eX-sheriff G. H. Stephens,
and W. w Nichols, two local stockmen,
reported having found the body OF a
Mexican man near the Grand Falls bridge
on the PecOs side OF the river. The man
when found had evidently been dead but
a very short time, as the body was still
warm and bleeding. A Iariat moose
was tightly drawn around one wrist,
while the other end Of the rope was
still tied to the horn Of a loose saddle
with a broken cinch. This, together
with the fact that every bit Of clothing.
except the shoes, had been torn from
the body, which was lacerated beyond
recognition, led to the conclusion that
while riding he had in some way been
unseated and dragged to death by a
horse. Mexican riders added to the evil
dence that the man was from FIT. Stock
ton and had enlisted their services to
catch number OF horses. The coroner
from Beuna Vista was called and an
inquest held.
