quirements we can't find ftny excuse
for this drawbnek to schools' pro

A coyote, which caused a great
deal of excitement last week in our
community fell victim to a miner's
rifle after an Interesting chase of
several miles.
The pester was first discovered In
a bunch of fine turkeys belonging to
Mrs. O. H. Tresham, where he suc
ceeded in slaying lfl fine birds before
shots from a rancher's rifle could
frighten him away. While on the
run he came through a band of
turkeys belonging to Mrs. W. A.
Tresham and lavishly bit one's head
off. The Tresham hounds were soon
turned loose and the coyote was
next seen nt the Wilson place. Men
with guns soon frightened him on
his way till Nelson Oden who had
seen the animal at his second stop,
caught Bight of him in the public
road on the way to Gold Hill. The
animal seemed to prefer the rond to
the hills where the dogs seemed to
have, better chance. Mr. Oden de
scribed the coyote as the boldest ono
ho ever saw, It having run along In
front of his car for two hundred
yards. He was wishing hard for, a
gun when a resident along the road
near Gold Hill caught a glimpse of
the animal and with his rifle ended
the chase.
The Johnson boys and Treshams
returned Monday evening from a
deer hunt In the Evans creek vicin
