WILD CAT
FBATHEHS AND EUB FLY IN A
FIERCE BATTLE.
Another Strnngo Conflict at Star

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.

fitness, though of course In a smaller
way, "Nathan Halo" has bocomo tho
most desired play for tho dedication of

Tho Moonlight Maids nrc billed to shed
their luster over the footlights of tho
Star theater for three nights commencing
this afternoon. Tho company of thlrty
flvo people will bo seen In the original
burlesque entitled "A Circus Day and

make it the best musical comedy on tho
road. The story relates, In a delightfully
witty vein, tho experiences of an Amer
ican girl who falls In love with a clrcii3
fakir and falls out of a balloon, from
which perilous position she' Is rescued by
"Rubber Ike," who makes her the "Queen
of tho Arena."
Tho second act takes place In tho dress

puts It, and tho third act depicts a funcy
dress ball. Interspersed throughout the
comedy there will be a number of lino
specialties.
The music of "A Circus Day and
Night" is original, bright and sparkling,
the comedy Is racy and the cntlro per
formance lias been likened to the "Wed
ding of Mirth and Melody." '
