Mrs. King. in the course of a conver sation with our representative, expressed great surprise when asked if what she "Of course, it actually saw was a tiger. was a tiger, "she exclaimed. "Ho crawled out into full view, and I saw the stripes on his back. It was not a large animal, and it was coolly crawling after the deer, which had attracted my attention by running down the hillside. The tiger was stalking it, and followed the deer down the hillside."
A local businessman, who lives in the- vicinity, heard several growls when re- turning home in Wednesday evening, in- dicating that for some reason or other the tiger has a weakness for this neigh- hourhood. There were many deer here, and these doubtless prove a great attrac- tion and a delectable dish for stripes."
