Eden Valley Farmer's Exciting

We learned recently that Mr. Hil'intre,

with a panther about four weeks ago.
It eeems that Mr, Hillings has a ranch

Prom the size of tho tracks Mr. Bill,
inga thought ono of the animals must bo
exceptionally large ao he thought hu
would try to capture it.
Two good-sized steel traps wore set
ono'iTvoning in adrivoway uotwoon some
buildings and during the night a light
snow covered them from eight.
In tin morning Mr. Blllinge wont to
look for hia traps and found them gone.
He put his doga on the trail and started
nut to locate hia gamo. The trail led
u"own along the river where arfteep hank
on the mountain side left only a narrow
path along the bluff into tho river, which
at that point wan cut down quite deep,
Mr. liillinge had not gone far ulong
thiu path until ho heard a noise above
him and, looking up, saw tho pantfior
crouching on tho high hank just about
to spring down upon him.
He fired at tho brute a quickly as
possible nut it did not stop him, and tho
next instant Mr. JlillinK's felt the sharp
clawa tearing hH ileah aotho panther
alighted on hia back and ahoulders.
Tho beaHt had two of its feet fastened

Mr. liillinge' life. During tho ecufll.i
both tho cotnbatunta fell over tho bluff
into tho river, which was running qiij

twice managed to break tho panthnr'g
