SOME STORM AND SOME TALE

Louisiana Man Has Bome Hard Luck During a Recent Gale In That - Section. Oakhurst, La. —J. B. Hopson of Oakhurst, La., in speaking to several friends of a recent storm, said that he had suffered a little bad luck and. knew how to sympathize with the good people of Friars Point, although,” said Mr. Hopson, “my case is rather laughable. Yesterday after the storm had passed my yardman approached and said: ‘Boss, we done suffered some damage, too, one of de cow’s horns has been knocked oft’ “Soon the animal was brought forward. and, sure enough, the horn was gone. The yardman thinks the wind blew off the horn, and still sticks to his belief."
