BRUCE.
A strange accident occurred near
Hanover last week. About noon on
Thursday a large black cat may have
been seen "blacksnaking" on a fence on
the Miller farm. At the same time
there happened to be, hovering in the
air, one of those bald-headed, hungry,
do -as you please kind of hawks. His
keen eye' was soon riveted on the
sleepy mouse eater on the fence, and
without further ceremony, he swooped
down on the object of his intentions. A
short scuffle ensued but at the end of a
few seconds the hawk rose slowly into
the air with the struggling creature
swinging from his talons. However, to
carry away such heavy and hard
earned plunder, proved too much for
this monarch of the air; and, upon the
interference of the kindly disposed
spectator, the conqueror allowed the
conquered to return from his aerial
trip whereupon he quickly arrived at a
neighboring barn.

Hampden, left for Manitoba last Tues-
