WHO OWNS IT?
Touching Romance Connected
With Red Cynx.
A touch of romance has beenndded
to the Samarian red lynx sehsution.
Captain Chase, who spent some time
In tho Philippines, comes forward
with the statement that It Is cuBtomnry
In Samar for a young man who wishes
to marry, to send the lady, of his
choice a red lynx. This amounts to
a proposal, and If she keeps and foeds
the animal she thus accepts him, but
If she allows It to escape or dio, his
suit is In vain.
Whether or not this hus nny sig
nificance In the present case is not
known, but the gossips are bent on
finding out.
It 1b safe to say that the little ani
mal will be a big attraction at tho
County Fair.
