HAWK KNOCKS A MAN DOWN
Bro stakes Hat for Pheasant and
Swoops Down on
Berrypicker.

AlleI:Hvn. Pa.-To be stretched
out by hawk, like fighter who has
received a. knockdown blow, was the
unusual experience of Nicholas Dot
ter of Saylorville. He was picking
wintergreen berries for his oil distil
lery when he received a blow that
laid him fiat.
The blow was accompanied by a
mighty swoop, and he knew 1t came
from above. AS he looked up he saw
a monster hawk, with a spread Of
wings Of fully five feet, sailing away
with his hat. After flying about fifty
years the bird dropped the hat and
later alighted on dead tree near by
Dotter believes that the hawk mis-
took his hat which is brown, for a
pheasant as he was working through
the brush picking the berries. Jagged
rips made by the birds talons con-
firm his story.

President Buchanan. Now, after
twenty years, the residents propose

silver and paper money and jewels lay
bare, and she almost tainted. Obeying
her first impulse, she phoned her
husband. and Mr.. Cockrill was soon q
party to the discovery, and he immedi-

The authorities recognized the stun
as part Of the loot taken by burglars
from the home Of ]. L. Atkins, a cot

amounted to $4,000, though $4,000
worth of diamonds stolen at the same
time were not there
Mr. Atkins did the handsome thing
by giving each of the boys a 500
