Bluffton Hunters Find That Raccoons Are Scarce Bluffton. Nov. 13 —A 'coon hunt, which participants say resembled a snipe hunt, brought Claude Devenport Kenneth Kunkel, Virgil Simmons, Forrest Blocker, Robert Biberstine, Jesse Williamson and Harry Brown to town yesterday morning, tired, wet, and without game to show for their prowess. The crowd went to a farm near Linn Grove, which Devenport said was “lousy" with ‘coon, but not one ‘con was found and “nary a yelp” came from the ‘coon dogs. Now the crowd is kidding Devenport for his I failure in supplying the quarry, and Devenport claims it was an off night; Harry Brown was the jinx of the party and the dogs are no good. He substantiates his statement by the , fact that proven territory north o» . Bluffton which was afterwards visited, resulted in a ‘water haul." At least the crowd is thankful it didn’t take Devenport's advice to carry plenty of sacks. i -o — ; Mrs. Fanny Nowicka Dies At Fort Wayne ft Mrs. Fanny Nowicks, 39, for several years a resident of this city, died at the Lutheran hospital, Fort Wayne, B Monday night, after an extended illness with tuberculosis.
