A fierce wildcat roams about the vicinity of East Thirty-seventh and Braxee streets, scaring the people and chasing the cats and dogs out of that neighbor hood. According to stories of those who have seen It. the wildcat Is from 8 to 15 feet long, has a tail 40 feet long, claws six Inches in length and sharp as saw teeth and has eyes as big as saucers, which shine on a dark night like 2000 candlepower electric arce. Mrs. George Blair recently moved into her new bun galow, on East Thirty. seventh and Braxee streets, taking with her two pot cats, which she prized very highly, from her former home on East Ankeny and East Eleventh streets. The first day Mrs. Blair noticed the cats were frightened about something and remained close to the home. . During the night the wildcat chased the two cats out of the neigh borhood end breaking Into the house car ried off several pounds of beefsteak that was Intended for breakfast. Mrsi Blair has seen this wildcat, and the animal Is not at all afraid of mankind. Architect Otto Kleemann undertook to "rush" the cat with his bicycle, but it did not scare at all. Mrs. Blair found her two cats had made their way back to her former home, at Eaet Ankeny street, but both were still so frightened that only one could be caught after a long chase. There is good hunting for someone, as the wild cat still roams In the neighborhood. Day Denies Sliohtino Case.

According to F. P. Mataon ,1086 East Lincoln street. L. H. Martin and C. K. Bean, two of the live men wanted at Aberdeen and Hoquiam, Wash., for de frauding the residents of those cities out of about jO,000 through the sale of state and county rights aa agents for a kitchen cabinet, are professional swindlers. Mr. Matson says that two men by tho same name successfully worked the same fraud at Ashland. Wia, not over ten months ago. "I am Inclined to think that tho same men did the work In both states. said Mr. Matson last night- "Their plan of operation was the same In both cases and It is singular. If they are not the Identi cal men. that they should select the same names for their Job on the Pacific Coast. The plan of operation was the same In both states. It was a get-rlch-qulck scheme In which large profits were as sured the victim. In Wisconsin, state and county rights to the same territory were repeatedly sold to prospective agenta as their exclusive field and when the fraud was discovered, the thrifty pro moters disappeared. Each agent was- re quired to pay a good fee for what he thought was an opportunity to make big wages." WHERE JO DINE.
