SEE BLACK FOX IN INDIANA

People of the “Knobs” Get Glimpsea of a Valuable Fur Bearer—May Be Freak of Ordinary Species. “Indiana knobs,” opposite this city, have caught glimpses of a rare blafck fox, whose fur is the most valuable of any of the North American foxes, and an old fashioned hunt is being organized by sportsmen in the hope of catching it. The black fox is a native of Alaska, and it is thought this one may be a freak of the ordinary species. A year ago a Canadian silver fox was captured among the knobs and its fur was sold in this city for S3OO.
