Weasel Leaps Into Jaws
of Gator for Safety

Pascagoula, Miss.-A party Of
hunters which has just returned
here from Bayou Casotte reports
that on Saturday the men saw an
alligator prepare to attack a
weasel, whereupon the weasel
with remarkable alacrity, leaped
into the gators extended jaws
and slid down into it's stomach.
The hunters say they were as
tonished at the actions Of the
weasel and awaited results.
Within fifteen minutes they OBJ
served the weasel eating its way
through the entrails Of the mon
ster.
According to the hunters, the
fondness for eggs prompted the
slender animal to take its
chances in the alligator.

Columbia, La.-Can fish climb
tree or do squirrels take a
bath occasionally? This is the

kiy Of safe blowing tools and explosives
was found al the SEVERN Hotel. Well
ing escaped from the Marion County Jail

ord so Stevens could be released on q
$4,000 bond.
