Huge Coon,
(Falmouth Outlook0

Albert Lancaster of Carntown, who
enjoys an euviable reputation as 4
trapper. says he caught a coon last
week in the wilds of Stepstone creek
that measured seven feet in length.
The truth of this statement can be
proven to any skeptical individual who
will take the trouble TO call on him
He has the hide tackled mp on his barn.
Albert was aware that this coon was
in the tall and uncut of that vicinity
as he had seen its tracks in the mud.
They were as large as those of L.
year-old barefoot boy. This coon was
large enough to wade across Licking
river when the water is at low stage.
Some of the boys believe that this coon
was a first cousin to the bear.

nearly 100000 pounds, has been pur.
chased by the firm of e. F. Spear &
Son of Paris, at the reported price Of
$11.5O a hundred. This is the highest
