TRAGEDY NEAR BERKELEY SPRINGS.

BERKELEY SPRINGS, w. VA, Sep
TENDER PA shooting affair occur
red near this place to-day. in which
Samuel Moore shot and killed James
M. Stroller. Dorrey Mason and Strot-
Ter had been accused by Moore of
stealing his bark, and the charges had
caused several quarrels. To-day the
three men met here, and after quar-
reling again, they started for home.
When abont a mile and a half from
here they renewed the quarrel, and
Stroller attempted to get into Moore's
wagon, when the latter drew a revolv-
or and fred two shots at him. One
ball entered his left shoulder and the
second lodged in his brain, killing
him almost Instantly. Moore then
fired at Mason, making a bad flesh
wound in his right leg. ALI three
men had been drinking. This is the
first murder that has occurred in this
county for more than twenty years.
Officers are in pursuit of Moore.
Stroller was about twenty-eight years
of age and unmarried.

Tn. Crab a. a Rabbit Driver.

Along the coast Of France, where the
land line is formed by long stretches OF
sandbanks lying between the high cliff
uplands, there used to be found innu-
merable rabbits, who made their burrows
in the dry sand above high water mark.
They ran one hole into another, 30 that
the labyrinth of underground passages
frequently extended for several hundred
feet, rendering it next to impossible to
dislodge the inmates in the usual manner
by slipping ferret into one of the holes.
For if this were done, the ferret would
simply drive the rabbits from one corner
of the network to another, where they
would hide as soon as they had evaded
him.
The continental poacher, ever prolific
in devices, knowing that the instinct OF
the crab will lead him always to descend
in search Of waiter, elaborated system
of placing bolt net at the mouth OF
every hole he could locate, no matter
how many there might be. Then taking
dozen or so good sized crabs, he fast
ened about half an inch Of composite wax
candle to the center Of each shell, fixing
them firmly enough for his purpose by
slightly melting the wax at the bottom,
and then pressing it to the shell. These
pieces of wax candles he obtained from
the innkeepers and lodging house keep
ers in the adjacent coast town.
He then lighted the candles and turned
one crab into each of the main runs. The
crab just taken from damp place inn
mediately sought the lowest ground in
the burrow, carrying his light along with
him where light had never penetrated
before. The rabbits, frightened almost
to death, rushed madly through the
runs to the mouths of the holes, sprang
out into the bolt nets and, hopelessly
tangling themselves in the meshes, lay
painting until the poacher came and put
them out of their misery. i have known
more than one hundred rabbits taken
from single burrow at one haul, and
the practice proved so destructive to the
rabbits that the French government took
the matter in hand and subjected every
offender to heavy fine and imprison-
ment.-W. p. Pond in Youths Com
panion.

TALKS ON THE TARIFF.

The whole question of Protection Is
herewith given in a nutshell. 1t is
striking statement from an eminent
British manufacturer, whose views,
recently given to John Wanamaker
of Philadelphia, are reproduced In the
columns of the Philadelphia Press.
Said Mr.. Wanamaker to a representa-
tive of that paper:
"One of the best known manufac-
turers of Great Britain, an old and
very able business man and a mem
Der Of Parliament, said to me when
visiting this country some months
ago: Give US some special orders !;
we have not been able for long time
to run all aur looms, and we will be
willing to set apart certain looms for
you and make any specialties you
wish and confine the goods solely to
your house."
"Why don't you run all your ma
chinery ?" I asked.
"Your COMPOUNDED protection is our
trouble" he answered. m 5e3
it;" Well, then, pull up stakes and
move one of your large factories over
here. America would welcome such
an industry as yours"
The very wise and prompt reply of
the British legislator and mauufac-
turer was: "If you can guarantee
that protection will remain as it now
is we will move oul stock over here
Immediately" T
"Ah, then," said Mr.. Wanamaker.
"when you have your looms and
works in Europe you are opposed to
protection in America but if you
moved over here you would insist
upon having it. AS an Englishman
you are down on protection, but il
your interests were in America you
would demand it. Your consistency
is not as your, self interest. IN Y.
