W alit to tell the little experience of two
of our sports while after a fox. They
were feelieig fresh and iiinable on foot
and had experienced dogs. After a
•loug chase the "animal" found shelter
in "his" hole. Spades were brought
into active requisition and the earth
had to fly. "Here he is" said one of
the sports. A long stick was poked
in the hole and the "animal" was there
sure. Gradually the sports and dogs
and guns and "fox" worked eloser to-
gether. The light dawned but the
"fur" did not fly. The dogs hesitated,
the snaps of the gun refused to cliek,
and the sports were powerless. Five
skunks were unearthed, and the vice
ims, it is needless to say, were the via
ors. "Fox" is now a much abused
word among Clinton sports. -Clinton
