Another Strnngo Conflict at Star rilcca Big Excursion Business on the Erie Some o the Susquehanna County Conventions Reunion of Veterans Farmers' Institute Will Be Held The News Grist. Special to Hie Scrnnton Tribune. Susquchnnnu, Aug. 27. With feathers and fur Hying In the air, an eagle and a wildcat battled on the farm of Thom as Jenkins, of Starrucea, last evening. Lying prostrate on thcsround was a small rabbit, the Innocent cause of the conflict between the bird and the beast. It undoubtedly was hunger which spurred on tho combatants. Both wanted tho rabbit and they engaged In a "deadly light for Its possession. The eagle had first claim upon the rabbit. From on high It swooped down to where the rabbit ,was nibbling at the herbs which lino tho Jenkins farm. The bird's great talons clutched the rabbit about the neck and began tho ascent. When the bird and its victim were about live feet from the ground and close to some jutting rocks, a new fac tor appeared and tho farm hands who had watched tho eagle from the time It secured the rabbit saw what appeared to bo a dog, but what was In reality a wildcat, leap at the eagle. The ani mal's claws closed around the bird's leg and the contest was on as tho rabbit, released from the grasp of tho eagle, dropped to the ground. The eagle wanted its prey; that'i was made evident by tho Intensity of Its action. Battle was given to the cat. Hovering just over Its enemy the bird b truck out fiercely with Its foot, now and then darting at tho cat with its bill. There was a spirited return on the cat's part, though it seemed to fight at a disadvantage because of hav ing to stay on the ground, but when it did give a blow or a bite tho plumage of the eagle was sadly ruffled and its feathers strewed the ground. The cat was a sad looking object, as great patches of fur had been torn from Its back. For at least three minutes the fight was prolonged. The farm hands were about on the point of starting for the immediate field of conflict when tho eagle, striking viciously at the cat and perhaps Imagining that It had by this time been placed hors de combat, made a sudden swoop for the rabbit, but as quick ns Its movement was, the cat was even quicker and It caught tho rabbit in Its jaws and almost at tho same moment dodged into an aperture In the rocks with its prey. Tho eagle defeat- , ed, hovered for a few seconds over the opening and then with a shriek soared toward the treetops and was lost to view. THE NEWS RECORD.

FAILED AS A CHARMER. Imagining that he was strangely en dowed with a charm to hypnotize snakes, Reuben Cross, a young farmer, residing at Flowers, near here, reached into a barrel where a big rattlesnake was placed by a party of harvesters and held the reptile at arm's length. Ho made a few mysterious passes about the snake's head, but tho reptile Instead of being subdued, darted Us poisonous funics Into Cross' wrist. He dropped tho snake and hastened to n physician. Despite tho best medical attention, Cross died. Ho was a vet eran of the Spanish-American war.

Word for picnics More cake, more ache. A good many Susquehanna and Car bondule girls understand tho art of fencing hanging over the garden gate. The trouble with lots of cats Is that they don't get enough dreamless sleep these August nights. Even a barrel hoop will turn when trod upon.
