One night last week the family
of John Rose on Beech Fork bad
retired for the night, sleeping up
stairs, with several of the doors
down stairs open on account of
the heat. They had not been in
bed long before they heard a
pack of hounds coming in full
tilt over the ridge. from the deep
woods, making the music so dear
to q hunters heart. They were
headed straight for Mr.. Roses
house and when. near it the dogs
stopped running, short off and
were heard no more.
When the next day dawned,
the Roses rose and went about
the daily affairs. One, going to
do the breakfast cooking, was
astonished to see a big red fox
coOlly curled up under the kitch-
en- cabinet. With a shout for
help, and one or two nice little
screams, the fun began. The
women folks armed with their
usual weapons-poker, rolling
pin and stove-wood-set in to
the fray IN deadly earnest and
Mr.. Fox saw in q moment that
in hiding in there from the dogs
he had jumped out of the frying
pan into the fire. The folks
fought well but the fox lodged
the better and quick out through
a window he went with a crash
and red fox's swift good bye.
Somewhere among the lime
stone lodges of Beech Fork that
fox is resting up for another
chase when John Maxwell toots

groves up there, but it's long.

The Reason Why at Furnace

The Clay City Ball Tea m,
feeling mighty good over wollop-
ing Stanton the other day, lit
out to Furnace, Sunday, tickle d
to death with the way they were
going to lay out the backwoods
boys up there, but the Furnace
boys were loaded for bear; they
had a diamond in a last years
corn-feld, full of old bumps and
humps and cornstalks. But they
had big game, all right enough,
and our boys were treated nice,
and had pie, and gassed some,
and smelt some gass, and finally
got the patchen knocked off of
them in the 9th inning-the score
being Z to 8, in favor of Furnace.
While our boys won't admit any
thing much, it's generally under
stood that the real reason for the
beat was our boys looking at the
at those pretty country girls who
came to cheer the other side.
But they played well, consider
ing the beauty, our boys did!
