Down on a farm near tlie Furnish dam there is a rooster that L.

A. Mo Clintock, local implement dealer, thinks, should be on the fighting front over in Europe or down in Mexico. "The blnnkety blank would fight nn, army by himself," he says, and he speaks from a painful experience that put him on the hospital list. In company with Sam Tnine, V. C.

E. Pruitt and Elbert Stickler, lie went down to the Furnish dam the other day in quest of good fishing. As the anglers were walking through the barnyard at the ranch there a big Bull Cochin rooster strutted out with ruffled feathers. Evidently he was in a k'lligerent mood ns a result of the trespass upon his preserves. Coining up behind McClihtock, he delivered a sturdy pock at the implement man's calf, which was protected by a knee boot.

The rooster was not to be denied by any such defense. Walking amund in front of McClintock, he leaped into the air and drove his shaq spurs home just above the knee, one on either side, delivering at the same time a stout blow from his beak. The spurs entered the flesh and struck the tendons of the leg. McClintock had to be helped to an automobile, so effectively had the old rooster crippled him. the time he reached home his leg was swollen and stiff, anil he could not use it for some days.

Auto Wheel Afire. A touring party from Bedford had a peculiar experience Monday not far from Chambersburg, on the Lincoln Highway. When descending the Tuscarora mountain the break on one of the rear wheels became overheated and set the wheel afire.
