MadFoxTakesToWarpathNear , Kelly And Meets Just Deserts Kelly, July 11 — Those mad toxes are running again. ^es sir, they came out of hiding a few days ago when one of the species descended on the little town of Rowan, creating as much excite ment as the James boys riding into Tombstone. Miss Alva Moore, who was visit ing at the home of Mr. and Mrs. C. R. Brinkley, saw Reynard loping up the slope into the yard and, observ ing at once that the visitor’s actions were distinctly anti-social, she ran to inform Mrs. Brinkley of the marauder. Locking the small children in the house, the two women, with the aid of brick-bats, sticks and brooms, staged as courageous a battle as any pioneer woman holding off a band of redskins with a musket. For over an hour they kept Brother Fox at bay .until that infuriated gentleman decided that it wasn’t good ethics to battle ladies and galloped away. In a short time, however, the rabied fox turned up at the home of Archie Barnhill, some distance away. Archie spied Reynard making an off-tackle lunge toward his house and quickly unloosed a heavy load of lead in his general direction. But 1 there was fight in the old boy yet and the fox, now quite mad, dashed at Mr. Barnhill again. With his back to the wall, Arofaie emptied his gun in the oncoming fox’s face—the animal falling dead. However, the second blast from the shotgun went through the fox and took effect in the motor of Barn hill’s car, parked nearby, damaging the machine considerably. OBITUARIES G. O.
