entity caught in box trap by the chill

Port Deposit in this county, in the shape
of bunny whose hair or fur is of de-
cidedly red color. The fur is different in
quality from that of our common rabbit,
and the eyes are red. 1t is no doubt an
offspring OF some foreign pet rabbit that
has escaped from captivity. 1t has been
presented to the braid Hill Park Zoo

Ohio Men Who Are Out Oh Il

Are Disposed to Do Some Ugly
Work.
The Governor Sends Militia to
the Scene.
Unsettled state Of ThIngs.


C%oLuSmus, Ohio, September l.-Goy-
crnor Hoadly and others who have been
making an inspection of the mining situa-
ton in Hacking Valley returned to the
city tonight. The Governor states that
the situation is a perplexing one and is Of
a threatening character. He thinks with
the men in their present temper it will be
some time before the struggle is over
unless the operators should determine to
make concessions He made i personal
visit 10 the mines with the
hope that the situation would prove
to be such that there would
be no necessity Of sending troops. In
this, however, he was disappointed. At
5 o'clock this evening he honored the re-
QUESTION of the Sheriff for troops and
sent three companies to the most critical
points, being Longstreth, Snake Hollow
and Sand Run. On the way TO Column
bus the Governor had a request for two
more companies at Longstreth, two at
Murray City and two to guard the prop
erty of the Hooking Valley road and its
bridges in the valley. He, however, re-
fused TO send more troops tonight, but
ordered several companies to be in readiness
to go to the front tomorrow afternoon
should they be needed. At the TWO lat
ter places named they feared an attack
tonight. When the Governor left Lo-
gan for the trip TO the mines this after
noon he %telegraphed on to all points that
he wished to consult with the leading
miners, and at some of the places on the
arrival Of the train there we're as many as
five hundred idle miners who had gathered
together TO see and hear what he had to
say. At Jacksonville the demonstration
was Of massive character, there being be-
tween six and seven hundred present
who had carriages and a band to escort the
Governor to the public square for the pur-
pose of making a speech. They had APP
pointed a committee earlier in the day to
ask 4 number Of questions as the Govern
or progressed, and they made it quite in
teresting. The appeal of the Governor
was for the observance of order and the
importance Of their doing their part in
this regard. 1t wa at this point that he
ordered the troops to the points named,
and the miners we've not very well
pleased over this move as they had sup
posed the Governor would not make such
order unless he was forced to do SO. In
reply to the demands of the Sheriff for
men he specially STIMULATES that they shall
be used only for the purpose of protecting
life and property. This is thought to in
dictate that they will not be allowed to
remain as 4 mere guard for the coal and
railroad companies. Moodey, who was ar
rested for the shooting Of William Hare,
in the attack of Saturday night, was
removed from jail at Logan.
