Friday last, following the snow storm, A.C. Wilson and J.A.
Swett started in the country on a hunting trip. As they were driving along the
road the chirp of a striped gopher was heard. The little fellow was discovered
sitting upon a bank of snow and looking as chipper as in the "good old
summer time." Mr. Swett (who does not belong to the gun club) took a shot
at the little innocent and luckily missed him about two feet. The little fellow
saluted them with his summer time chirp and disappeared in the snow bank. An
occurrence of this kind is somewhat remarkable for this time of year and the
weather conditions prevailing at the time. -
