HAREs THAT EAT FLESH.
Seen by German Who Went Hunting
in CASTLE, Spain.
From the Munohener zeituhg,

From the Munchener Zeituhg.
Hare is dish never seen on Spanish
table, because in Spain there is a super
stition that hares, in the night, go into
churchyards and dig up the graves and
eat the dead bodies. A writer who re-
Gently spent some time shooting in
CASTLE, where game is very plentiful,
relates how he was convinced of the fact
that hares do eat flesh. He had been told
so by the country people, but had treated
their assertions as a ridiculous fiction.
The next time he found himself in party
of sportsmen he repeated what he had
heard as a Joke; but, to his sur
prise, every one listened quite gravely
and assured him that it was perfectly
true; they themselves had fire.
quently seen hares eating flesh. As he
still expressed doubts on the subject, how
ever, one of the company offered to bet
him fifty liters of wine that he (the Ger
man) should see hare eating meat.
The bet was accepted. The next morn
ing, very early, the Spaniard, the Ger
man and two grayhounds went out to
great heath to look for flesh-eating hares.
As they We're sitting waiting for the hares
to appear, the Spaniard, to the Germans
amazement, took little live crab out of
his pocket.
"What do you want that fort" said the
German.
ITO catch the hare with" replied the
Spaniard.
1t struck the German that perhaps the
Spauiard had brought him out merely to
make fool of him. But then he reflected
that that was not the Spanish way with
strangers so he held his tongue and went
on waiting BY and by a fine hare APP
peared. In moment two dogs were after
him (theywere well muzzled, so that they
could not do him any harm(, and in few
moments more the hare had disappeared
again in his hole and the dogs were bark
ing at its mouth. The men got
up and hurried after them. "Now," said
the Spaniard this is where my crab
comes in" He pulled out the crab and
put it down at the mouth of the hole, and
it, glad to hide in the dark shade, crept
in with all the expedition it could man
age. The Spaniard instantly spread
large coarse sack over the entrance and
in a few moments out rushed the hare,
terrified by its unexpected visitor, right
into the sack. Home they went with
their prisoner, which they placed in
cage. When the hare had recovered
from his fright he ate, before the Ger
mans astonished eyes, several pieces of
mutton which were thrown in.

how to exterminate them is a serious one.
Unlike the prairie dog, which moves when
civilization reaches his habitation. the
jack rabbit will remain very near the set
Elements and run the chances of being
killed. Parties are formed to drive these
rabbits. A triangle, with the sides about
quarter of mile long and the base
about an equal distance across, is formed
with closely constructed wire fences or
wire screening. The hunters separate
very much as In fox hunt and. going in
circle, meet a short distance below the
base of the triangle beating the grass as
they go. Then, closing in, they drive the
rabbits into the triangle and the animals
suspect no danger until they are huddled
together at the point. They try to Jump
the fence, and, failing in that. make a
grand rush TO retreat. The hunters are
armed with stout clubs and kill them by
the hundreds. 1t is not uncommon for
1900 or 1900 TO be killed in a single drive.
The sport is an exciting one, as the ami
mails are exceedingly quick in their move
ments and will execute some very artfuT
lodges to try TO pass the hunters
