ROCK CHEEK HM VS. UNI Frank Christy Hat Dssperatt) Fight with Big Cat aa a Bracer Before Break fast. rrank Lhnsty, who lives on the John Day river at the mouth of Rock Creek, was aroused from peaceful slumbers a few morn ings ago by Ihe baying of his wolf hounds, and on going out to investigate, saw that his dog had treed what he thought was a coyote. Arming himself with a club he went to the place of combat to help the dogs kill the animal, On approaching the animals the varmint jumped into the creek bed, ran 50 yards and crawled up on the bank, with , the pack of hounds at its heels bringing the animal at bay in a clump of sage brush. Christy dashed into the brush and dealt a terrific blow on the varmit which caused it to seek other shelter some distance, but still followed by its pursuers. Frank waded into the brush with renewed force. To his great surprise a huge lynx leaped straight at him and but for the timely assistance of large hound that seized the big cat by one of its hind legs, the hunter would have no doubt received serious injuries. So warm was the battle raging that Christy decided to summon aid and so called his nearest neighbor, Mose McKinney, and his two sons, Herbert, and Fred. They all returned to the scene of battle reinforced by two large wolf hounds. The lynx was soon overpowered but not without a wicked fight up to the very last As soon as it saw the crowd ap proaching, it started to run but was quickly overtaken by the hounds. The lynx seized the argest dog around the neck with both fore feet burying its claws deep into the flesh. The wolf hound never uttered a sound but fastened its jaws on the neck of the cat and held him to the ground until dead.
