FEAT OF A FOX.

lie Remarkable Display of Cunning In
Securing a Meal.
In field of feeding hares foxes have
been observed to approach with slow.
fimping motion and holding down their
heads, as If eating clover, until they
were near enough to secure their prey.
The following is an extraordinary in.
stance of fox cunning; One week when
the ground was frozen. but bare of
snow, farmer placed hen under a
strong, heavy chicken coop The coop
was boarded on one side and lathed on
the other, the lower lath within an inch
OF the ground. which was smooth. but
sloping, with furrow-like depression
a few inches In depth about two feet
up the slope.
In the morning the hen was gone
The coop stood Immediately over the
depression. the laths bearing numerous
impressions of an animals teeth. and
the small one at the apex was scratch
cd By its claws.
The fox had wasted no strength on
the board trying to push the coop over
In an uphill direction, but he tried his
best on the other side. Failing In this.
he bit and tore at the laths to break
them and finally drew the coop up the
hill over the. hollow, dragged out the
hen and made off, leaving no blood
very few feathers and only three of his
hairs on the laths. -Harper's Weekly.

There is a district in the state of
Mississippi where there are very few
white persons. Most of the negroes
have not yet secured the blessings Of
education with those Of liberty confer
red upon them by the emancipation
proclamation. But they do the best
they can toward the construction of
government of their own suited to
their own simple necessities These
attempts are naturally based upon the
examples afforded them by their white
neighbors.
Considering the frequent robbery of
henroosts and other petty depreda-
lions, the best citizens sent a commit
tee to Canton to attend court with a
view to learning the processes Of law
essential to the trial of criminals. Soon
after their return and report court was
convened In Silas Perkins back yard
to try Pete Davis for stealing Shang-
hal rooster belonging to Mart Stevens.
The judge. the prosecuting attorney and
the prisoners counsel were all mem
bers of the committee to gather legal
lore. The jury We're only supposed to

LIGHTNING KILLS
VALUABLE HORSE
TWO MEMBERS OF CAMPING
PARTY RENDERED UNCON
SCIOUS.

Last night during the severe cleo
trical storm that passed over this
section of the country, a valuable
horse b\onging to Bud Ford was
killed on the Oscar Whitehurst
place six miles east of the city.
Mr.. Ford, Jgether with party
of seven other men, we're camped for
the night with their horses, six in
number, hitched to convenient trees.
When the storm arose lightning
struck the tree TO which his horse
was h.tched and killed it instantly.
TWO other animals were Knocked
down but we're not hurt. Mr.. Ford
stated that they were a very scared
bunch of men after it was all over,
but things happened so rapidly at
tie time that they had no time for
thought. Two members of the party
were knocked senscless by the same
bolt that killed the horse, but they
were soon revived.
