BIG TROUT FIGHTS GREEDY

Bellefonte, Pa, June 30.-Belle-
fonte may not have any man-eating
sharks or sea serpents to show its
visitors during Old Home Week, but
it has some good fishing trout, and If
the crowd had been there last night
they might have seen a battle royal
between a 24-inch trout and musk
rat.
Lew McQuistion, one OF Bellefonte's
best anglers, went up Sprink Creek
last evening and while whipping the
stream he saw a lively commotion on
the other side or the creek. In the
gathering twilight it was hard to dis
tinguish what it was, but he finally
made out muskrat and trout
fighting.
They splashed around until the
water was churned into foam, then
the big art managed to get out on the
bank and draw the trout with it, but
the fish Topped around, hanging on
To the rats nose until it finally flop
ped back into the water. Again there
was lashing and foaming of water
and then the commotion died down as
the struggle ended. IT all happened
50 quickly that McQuistion could not
get to the combatants until it was all
over, 50 a. could not tell which won.
