The animal first appeared on the mine teail, and viciously attacked a horsé belonging to Captiin *Colle, but was beaten off, and then took to the main road and came by the station, The lynx showed none of (h« timidity that usually characterize; - , but fiercely assailed every li thing that crossed its path, It killed one dog and whipped another within sight of man’s store, vercly wounding sever hogs on the ranch, and would have done up the Chinese cook if he had not fled in the millk house at the spring. The lynx did not venain long at Go man’s but rusiied along up the road at furious gait, stopping only to leave the mavk of his teeth and eliws upon such stray animals as were tardy about get ting out of his way. Judge Tobin, sit- ting outside of his cabin, saw the mad animal coming, and shut himself up and was not at home to anybody for the next five hours. Dav Menzies turned to his pre-cmption elaim late in the afternoon, and found nhis flock of chickens distributed in fragments ull over the quarter section, Ten mi yond the Menzies claim the mud lynx met Don Cuddy, who was on horseback, and chased himinto the sage- brush. At Cuddy’s ranch he stampeded a band of cattle, bit a hov and killed a dog. Then he disappeared in the brush on Frazer mountain, having made a run of thirty miles since morning. The other duy the erazy cat turned up at Sum Snedden’s ph ten miles be- yond Cuddy’s, whipped all the dogs on vanch in less than two minutes, and was ch the youngest Snedden toward th ek when Myps, Snedden rushed out of the house with a musket loaded for bear, took a pot shot at the animal, and blew it into the middle of the boundless beyond.

A small spider stened to the bhottom of the de conieal web reaching nearly to the floor, About 11:30 o'clock the other forenoon it was observed that the spider had en- snared o young mouse by passing fila- web around its tail. When first seen the mouse had its fore feet on the floor and could barely touch the floor with its hind feet The spider was full of business, running up and down the line and occasionally biting the mouse's tail, making it struzgle desperately. Its efforts to escape were all unav s the slender filmnents about its vere too strong for it to break. In a short time it w 0 that the spider was slowly hoisting its vietim into the air, By'2o'clock in the afternoon the mouse could barely touch the floor with its fore feet: by dark the point of its nose was an inch above the floor. At9o’clock at night t mouse was still alive, but T no sign except when the spiderde- scended and bit its tail” At this time it was an inch and a half from the floor. The other morning the mouse was dead and hung three inches from the floor., An English officcr who was in Paris in 5 mentions the ca sof ndog belong- ing to a shoeblack which brought cus- tomers to his mastor.
