Ivan Dakin and Carl Kent, who were camping recently on the West Fork of Hood river, had the scare or tneir lives one afternoon, when a huge wild cat chased a rabbit through their camp. The big cat was hot in pursuit of the bunny, which ran into the opening madijby the boys for protection. The young men had just returned from a hard finding trip and were seated on thier stools resting, when the startling procession hove in sight. Although they hud a number of firearms the ap pearance of the brute was so sudden that by the time they had recovered, after having tumbled over camp stools to allow the cat to pass, it was too far away for a shot. Clarence Fosberg, who was woiking on the road near, saw the animal. He declares that it was one of the biggest wildcats he has ever seen. Mr. and Mrs. Jake Lenz and son. Ulen, Mr. and Mrs. P. X.

Rattle snakes are scarcely ever seen in most of the portions of the Hood River valley. However, once in a long time some one is given a good fright by a visiting replilo. Fred McCrea gave a wnrro reception to a rattler last week. Without an mtivntion the snake had invaded the cellar of the McCrea home, and when Mr. McCrea was delving into the shelves for (lain ties with which to regale guests Sun day, he heard the buzz of the squatter, His hand was within six inches of the reptile. He made a hasty exit, gave a war whoop and returning to tha base merit proceeded to shoot the Bnake i head off with a rifle. Clyde Rand, while in the Lost Lake district lust week with his father William Rand, and grandfather, Rob ert Kami, shot nnd wounded a big bea not far from Camp Overall. U chased the wounded beast through the bushes to a big hollow tree, where he could hear it moaning.

Although the greater part of one morning was spent in looking for the tree, it whs impossible to find it. lletzcl Praises West Side Club Kalph D. lletzel, director of the ex tension division of the Oregon Agricul tunil College, h:is much juaise for the work being done by the members of the West Side Improvement club.

Weonas Win Sunday's Came The baseball game Sunday between the Heights team and the Weonas, of Portland, whom the local lads licked in a game on a former occasii this summer, was won by the tat ter. The home team was crippled by the absence of Samuel and Butterfield. The game was tied in the ninth inning, 6 to 6. In the tenth one of the visitors knocked a fly over second base. Too many of the Heights players tried to save it with the result that they al lowed it to fall between them. The Weona team made two more scores, and the game closed 8 to 6. Fred W. Slaten, lira.

"Golf has Its humors," said a cham plon player. "And this struck me par ticularly In a conversation at a golf club Hint I once hnd with a Persian prince. The prince, as ho sat on the club plimn watching the various clmmplou drive off, drawled: " '1 don't see very much In golf. No object Is to he gained by the deposit ing of a white ball In n miMerranenn cavity, and If any object were to be gained the shortest and snresit method would surHy bo to carry the ball In the hand from cavity to cavity.' " Tint, prince,' 1 said, 'the difficulty of getting the ball Into the cavities, ns you call them, Is what constitutes the attraction of the. game.' "'The difficulty constitutes the at traction, eh?' The prince frowned. 'Well.' he went on, 'It would be mora difficult to shave with a coal shovel than a razor, but 1 don't think many inou are tempted ou that account to remove tholr Itcnrda each morulng in that way.'"
