With only nature's weapons Whit- ter
nev Dodson, a prospector of Alamtlie anc
(Cal.) district, fought for his life a the
' 40-pound wildcat, finally killing him usi
with a club. I r
Captured at the Roy West mine and the
apparently thoroughly tamed the ani- life
mal was allowed liberty and behaved wri
well until Dodson attempted to snap- Wa
i shot him with a camera, whereupon aut
all the old-time ferocity of its species tee
sprang up. In a second the animal bin
sprang on the man, sinking its teeth *tt:
Into his thigh. Down the mountain- tra
side, through brush and undergrowth. I
rolled cat and man. ver
The beast, clinging to Dodson with
its teeth, ripped and tore with its thr
claws. Dodson finally seized the ani- ela
mal by the throat, and after a time 10 1
j forced It to loosen its hold. He then UU)
snatched up a club and when the cat I10'
again made for him he crushed its caE
head with a well-directed blow.

t Materials for Coats.
s The heavy coatings that bid fair to
t hold a prominent place this spring are,
9 of course, higher in price, but then
e they are not so expensive after all, for
- they are very wide, and only a small
3 number of yards is necessary to comf
plete a garment The rich oriental
j colors still hold their own in these
1 materials, and for outing wear they
are lovely. Even the conservative
i dresser does not hesitate to don one
- of \hese lovely colorful top coats when
1 spending a time at a southern resort
i or in the country. Dress stuffs are
1 I only a trifle less colorful, and at first
? one might get the impression that
i white had been excluded in the dress
goods plan. This is by no means so,
r and almost any weave that is found in
color is also to be had in plain white.
- There is this to be said, however, that
i almost every white gown, unless one
f is in mourning, has a liberal touch of
i color introduced in the way of trim*
- ming.
