GOT HIS BREAKFAST.
Curious Story of the Dauntless Persistence
~ of Fox. 81


~ of Fox.
A curious story of fox's temerity
and persistence in the pursuit of prey
is reported from the farm. of William
Bunnell, who lives on the hill, back of
Big Canyon, on the line of the Lycom-
ing Valley and Pine creek railroad.
Like all the localities in Northeastern
Pennsylvania that neighborhood has
suffered greatly last winter by the raids
of foxes on the poultry yards of farmers.
Bunnelrs flock of chickens has been
reduced to one hen, although traps of
all sorts of devices had been tried to
foil the raids of the foxes. A few days
ago Bunneu went to a neighbours to
join him in fox hunt which had been
made up for that day, taking his dog
with him. He had been gone but a few
minutes when big fox came into the
door-yard where the last member of
Bunnell's flock of poultry was feeding
and chased her past Mrs. Bunnell, who
was boiling soap at the back of the
house, and into the house through the
open kitchen door.
Mrs. BunneH ran after the fox, carry
ing clothes-pounder as weapon. The
hen ran up stairs and into bedroom,
and hid under bed. The fox followed,
and when Mrs. Bunnen reached the top
of the stairs the fox was coming out of the
bedroom with the hen flung over his
shoulder. Mrs. Bunnell struck at him
with the clothes-pounder, and the fox
retreated into the bedroom and went
under the bed, where he leisurely pro-
ceeded to make his breakfast off the
hen. Mrs. Bunnell made him prisoner
by closing the door, and then ran to the
neighbors, reaching there before her
husband and the rest had started away
on the hunt. She told the story of the
hen and the fox, and the hunters re-
turned with Mrs. Bunnell to have some
sport with Reynard. When they arrived
at Bunnell's they found that the fox had
jumped through window pane in the
room and escaped. Big tufts of his fur
were fast to the jagged edges of the
broken glass, and trail of blood lead
ing away from where the fox had landed
in the snow showed that he had not got
away with whole skin. The trail was
followed four miles. Then the fox took
refuge in creyice in some rocks. He
was Eouted out, and the dogs soon killed
him.-PhtIGdelphtG CaH.

healthfu its best and contemporary. And
all this without the tresome application and repetition of
the ponderous blanket-sheet This has been it's IDEAL
How we'll it has succeeded in the actual attainment of so
high standard is best evidenced the fact that it now

s'If there are any such saloons there, its no
more his business to complain of them than
any other citizens. There never was COM

was not arrested and if found guilty fined.

Special to the Globe.
CHICAGO, April 3O.-As announced, the
managers and general freight agents of the
Northwestern lines met at the Grand
Pacific hotel to-day, all of the principal
roads being represented. The session was
short and to the point. Very little discus
sion was INDUCED in, and no points were
raised to excite ansagonisnl. There was
feeling that the times were unpropitiousJ
for the indulgence in bitter railroad
wars and that it would be better to smoo b
matters over for the time being. Mr.
Marvin Hughitt of the Northwestern, acted
as chairman. and Mr.. Horace Tucker of the,
Illinois Central, secretary. But little for
mality was observed, an informal converse
ton regarding past action and future con-
tingenceS ensuing. 1t was finally decided
to enter into tacit agreement to continue
in force the present tariff. until such time
as plan for pool could be agreed upon.
The tariff referred to is the one arranged
by the general freight agents some ten days
ago, and which, it is admitted. has been
adhered to from that date. 1t is on the
basis of so cents per 100 pounds frst-c class,
West-bound, and running down to 10 cents
on agricultural implements. A committee
was then appointed, consisting of general
freight agents of each road-interested, and
instructed to formulate contract for IN
A NEwPOOL, U
and upon its completion to report the same
to an adjourned meeting of the managers,
who will again come together upon the no
tice that the committee has completed its
reports. This concluded the session so far
as the managers were concerned,
and they retired. The general
freight agents then organized
by choosing Mr.. E. P. Ripley of the Bur
lington as chairman and Horace Tucker of
the Illinois Central as secretary The Off
Gals then adjourned until Wednesday next,
ON account Of the absence of representa-
tives of the Wabash and the Central Iowa.
The participation of both of these lines is
essential. as the Wabash reaches Northwest
business through it's st. Louis line and con-
nections. and the Central Iowa at
Peoria. Both of the lines will be
asked to show up on Wednesday
next and help to fix up the pool. 1t will
probably be couple of weeks before the
plan is fully decided upon, as the committee
has many knotty problems to solve and an
tagonistic interests to reconcile. The dis
position manifested was gratifying. as it
demonstrates that the managers desire a
peaceful solution of the troubles and are In
mood to m axe concessions to secure it. 30

Commissioners Favor Lower Rates.

nHHfSsHVHCHS II " v VI hV Tux 1hdtUSe
It is understood that the railroad commits
missoners have had under consideration, for
a long time. the matter of reduction of
freight rates, especially pertaining to out
going products of the state, such as wheat,
lumber, ETC., and that this examination has
been extended and searching, embracing a
comparison with not less than fifty railroads,
having about the same volume of business.
The revenues from each commodity have
been carefully studied and tables made. The
results of these protracted investigations,
the commissioners say, 20 to show that the
Manitoba road can make q reduction of about
rs per cent, without impairing its ability to
meet every fixed charge. 1t is also under
stood that the commission have submitted to
the Manitoba authorities a schedule of rates
which they deem reasonable and ask for
their loption. The authorities of that road
ask till the 18th of May for their consid era
