loaded rifle prepared to do violence
to the thief. In the small hours OF
the night he saw in the moonlight, a
stealthy figure approach, knock the
top from a can and begin to imbibe
freely. Fascinated by the sight, the
m"oOnshiner awaited results. When
! the animal turned from the car he
was already in a hilarious state, be-
gan to cut capers and to dance all
the modern steps.
The tenth bullet brought the ami
