CATS USED LIKE HOUNDS.
Big Fclincs Trail, Point and Retrieve
as Well as Hunting Dogs.

Chicago Tribunal.
L. G. NimmO OF Sturgis, Miss,
probably has the strangest "pack of
hounds in the United States, if not
in the world. 1t consists of two huge
domestic cats, which he has been
training for more than three years,
until they trail, point and retrieve
small game as we'll as any dogs ever
seen in Mississippi. The cats are
named Tom and Jerry and are used
principally in hunting rabbits, tree
squirrels and quail, though they have
tracked and helped kill oppossums
and raccOons, both Of which are
plentiful in that part Of the South.
According to their owner, who be-
gan training the cats when they were
kittens. on sight Of a rabbit, squirrel
or quail they assume rigid positions,
like that of a pointer, except that
they move their tails slightly, and
wait for him to come up and shoot
the game they have found. They
have never, since he finished their
training, rushed forward to kill the
game themselves, or to attempt to
stalk it. When the shot is fred they
retrieve the fallen animal or birds,
and If it is not quite dead give it a
Quietus by biting it in the neck.
The especial value Of these cats.
Mr.. Nimmo says, is in their ability
to trail, capture and kill wounded
squirrels which flee to the tree tops
after being shot. He estimates he
has secured some 200 squirrels which
otherwise would have been lost to
him during the past season by the
aid Of these cats. When he takes hi.'
shotgun from the rack in his home
the cats leap about him like hunting
dogs, only they meow their pleasure
at going afcld, rather than bark, as
would q setter or hound. Their own
er says they are better at trailing
cOOns, those we'll known game ami
mails Of the South, than the best
coon dogs in the state. Last Dcccm-
BE- he captured % raccoons with the
aid of these eats. tom and jerry"
said he, will follow me like dogs for
miles through woods. until they see
or scent rabbit, bird or squirrel.
They they squat down close to the
ground, wag their tails from side to
side, and remain motiOnlcss until |

anco of their plan, the constitution
alists feel that 1t would present a
situation so contradictory as to be
ludicrous. The announcement that a
basis had been secured for the solu-
ton of the agragrian question was
received with laughter The consti-
tutionalists do not recognize the right

this subject. especially as the stand
OF the iiuerta party on the matter
largely was responsible for the un-

'"The constitutionalists assert the

take upon themselves to settle so
