suit of the Nellgh game. The homo
team paitl the Nellgh fares , amount
Ing to about $25 , and also paid for
two meals for the visitors , so that the
expenses of the game were high. The
attendance was not as large , owing to
the drizllng rain , as It would have been
under fairer skies. E. B. Kauffmani
advanced the $22 necessary to mee
the expenses.
AH the deficit would tax each playe
$2 , a number o ftho business men have
urged the players to start out with a
subscription and make up the funds
If each business man would contrlbut
a quarter , the fund could easily b
raised. This will probably be done.

RAN HUGGING WILD CAT.
Iowa Farmer Grips Attacking Anlma
Close and Runs for Help.
Lake City , Iowa , Nov. 15. Join
Sleh , a middle-aged farmer of the vi
cinlty of Grant City , ran four miles
through heavy timber with a full
grown , ferocious wildcat hugged close
to his chest , and is alive to describe
his remarkable experience. Sioh was
hunting quail in a plum thicket , when
his dog flushed game. Sich did no
know what kind it was and approachet
cautiously. Ho soon found out , for c
wildcat leaped at Slob's throat. Tin
claws of the cat did not do much harm
on account of a heavy coat worn bj
Sloli , who dropped his gun and hugge
the cat close to keep it from clawin
him. One arm was close below th
animal's head , which prevented Its bit
Ing him.
In this death grip hunter and ca
traveled four miles before asslstanc
was obtained.
Then two farmers procured a gu
and shot the animal in the head whil
clasped In Sleh's desperate embrace
Sleh was nearly exhausted when re
leased from the animal's clutch. II
says ho never wants to look Into sue
llamlng oycs again. It has boon man
years since an account of a man's beIng
Ing attacked by a wildcat In this par
of the state has been reported.
