Sever al times Hamilton did this, in the first of the half, and the jeers of the crod before the play had started soon changed to shouts of approval of the work done. realizing that their prestige was wan ing, fought with the more vim and after a series of well womea piays had put themselves in the lead by a email margin.

Mr. Coutant has been very success ful In ralBlng chickens and his fine flock of Brown Leghorns and White Wyandottes were a paying invest ment, so the loss Is a serious one. We are willing to admit that the much talked of cougar In this vicin ity Is a big one if the sounds he emits are In proportion to his site. Re cently he serenaded the boys at "Bean Lodge" and the whole neigh borhood heard his vocal efforts. One of the members of the tamp claims to have beheld him distinctly In the moonlight, but regard for Mr. Hen drlck's reputation for truth and ver acity forbids trying to give dimen sions ascribed to this animal. , 500 RE W ABU.
