Black Cat Blamed
For ^11 His Ills
FORT WORTH”Te* , Aug. 11—
i (UP)-L B Miller of Winona, near
Tyler, today blamed a black cat for
ell hla trouble*.
Miller arrived at the Fort Worth
stockyards last night with a trailer
hauling 85 head of sheep he intend- j
ed to sell. He found he could not
dispose of the sheep because of a
livestock handlers strike.
My thirteen oil wells In the East
Texas Arid were shut down Tues-
day.’' Miller complained. “I ran out
of gasoline on the way here.
“It must have been that black cat
that ran across the highway in
front of my trailer.”

Haber of Hartford, Conn. Perhaps
the most extensive of the known
collections, it also contains some
of the mo6t fantastic forms.
