Show Power Supply Disrupted Some notion on the part of a half-grown lynx, or bob-eat, which ltd him to climb a pole of the Telluride company's high tension line near Frisco, brought about a 50-minute cessation of power in Milford at 4:30 Sunday morning and the sure-as-shooting "death of said bob-cat. Possibly with the object of making mak-ing a meal of some hawk or owl perched atop the pole, the cati came to his end when he reached the 4-1,000-volt wires at the cross-arm, cross-arm, but must have remained suspended sus-pended there for some time as a neavy insulator had been chipped and made useless and heavy No. 4 wire had been melted with the j heat generated by the "short." The kitty showed remarkably little evidence of burning, possibly possi-bly because of his heavy fur, but the fact that almost his whole j body was in the circuit was demon-1 strated by the fact that from only a small spot on the top of his head was there any indication of ' Tueeding. ! Segregating the line on which ; the trouble occurred offered more difficulties than usual, and the ; Frisco line was dead for several ' hours. |
