Killed A Wildcat The Mildinay Gazette says : Council- lor John Juergensof the tenth con. had an exciting experience with a wihicat last Thursday evening. When he leiurned home that evjuing at 7.30 lie noticed a great conimolioii in his poultry house. The hens usually went to roost ii that time, but on this occasion they made their e.5cape from the building io the greatest excitemont. Judging that there wis something amiss, Mr. Juorcens entered the ht-n house, and after i.aieful search thouijht he detected an i-oimal in a little addition of the buildo ; into which he had thrown some box^ s and pails. He set the dog on the iiuiuJer, hut the dog came back in a hurry and didn't seem disposed to tackle the s'riii- ger. Mr. .1 uergens then secured his repeating rifle, and closing all the ^,tablu doors so as to proven} the aniroal's escape, he determined to pu^. a certain end to it. In the daik he tired one *liot and the animal made a great bound out of Its hiding pla':9 right over the partition into the pig pen. Mr. Juergens thi'ii had an opportunity of sizing up his visitoi, and when he discovered that la- was iu company wih a aenuine, â- ;iown up wildcat, ho began to realize his serious position. He tin-d again and kept on shooting, taking careful aim until the si'ven chambers of the rifle were enr-'y. He then attacked the cat with a cbib iid tinally .succeeded in killing if.
