by the supreme court and also the court of

defendants surrendered themselves TO the
custody OF the district and applied 10 the
supreme court OF the United states for re-
lief, urging the unConstitutiOnaity Of the
statute under which the Indictment against
them was found.
After reviewing the circumstances of the

GET RIGHT WITH GOD.
Major Cole Makes a Special Appeal to Chris
tians.


Inclement weather does not hinder
the work Of saving men and women.
The meeting of Major Cole yesterday
morning was well attended. The ma
jor spoke especially TO Christians,
urging them TO greater energy. He an
nounced that the union meetings under
his leadership would probably close a
week from next Sunday.
At the beginning of the evening serv-
ice, each one of the pastors spoke in be-
half of a strenuous effort next week.
Major Cole then spoke from the text:
How Shall We Escape if We Neglect
so Great Salvation" The audience was
very attentive and during the time of
personal work several became right
with God.
Tomorrow's services will be as fol-
lows: Major Cole will preach at the
West Side Presbyterian church in the
morning, at p. m. he will hold union
meeting at the Oak Street Presbyter-
ian church. In the evening the union
services will be held in the First Pres
byterian church, beginning at and in
the NJ. E. church beginning at 7:30. The
union efforts will be concentrated in
those churches.
Next week is the week observed
throughout the country as the week of
prayer AS it will also be the last
week Of the series of meetings special
work will be done. The business
houses will be asked to close from 10 TO
II next Wednesday morning, to give
the business men an opportunity to be
present at that morning meeting. On
Friday of next week a meeting for the
school children will be held at the Nj.
E. church at p. I'M.
There will be the usual morning
meeting at Plymouth church and the
evening meeting at the NJ. Z. church.

DO YOU WANT RABBITS.
Police in Receipt of Large Consignment
of Them.

If there is anything in the traditional
good luck of a rabbits foot Wichita
will be all right this winter. Yester-
day consignment of 800 rabbits was
received at the Missouri Pacific depot
for the police department to be dis
tributed to the poor of the city. Where
they came from is not known, but they
probably were shipped from some of
the points on the western lines of the
road where rabbit hunts were held a
few days ago.
Upon receipt of the rabbits Officer
Slower was notified and when he ar
rived at the depot his eyes Toasted on
an ocean of them. The entire platform
was covered with their dead bodies and
he was informed that all of them be-
longed to him for distribution among
the poor. The hoodlum wagon keeper
was at once notified and soon the en-
tire outfit was carted to police head
quarters and arrayed in the police
court
distribution will take place and, doubt
less, will be worth seeing.
Every poor family in the city can get
them in proportion to membership.
The distribution is open to every race,
color and previous condition of servi-
tude.
Rabbit hunts are now all the rage in
western Kansas ana tnlS Will not De the
only consignment that will be sent to
Wichita this year. Besides doing a
good thing for the poor the hunters en-
joy lots of fun for there is a pleasant
excitement about a rabbit hunt I'M
known to any but those who have par
ticipated in it. This is how it's done:
A rabbit hunt is ANNOUNCED on GER
tain day in an open prairie where
there is a good deal of bunch grass.
The rustic youths of the whole country
gather at the place in the morning,
we'll mounted, well armed and we'll sup
piled with hounds. Two teams are
used. They are about 800 yards apart
and a loose rope extends from one to
the other. The teams start forward
at a lively pace and the loose rope
stirs up the rabbits. Then horses and
hounds take after them. The more
rabbits there are in the chase the more
ratified they become and they are cut
down by the dozen. A hunting party
rarely kills less than 400 of them each
day The sport is usually concluded
with a big dance and festival at some
central point at night. 1t is great fun.
that rabbit chasing is.

Evolution of Letters

formation Of letters which is as follows:
Suppose a man OF today, fairly artistic,
were 10 draw a snail crawling on branch
The artistic man has ten friends lie gives
his sketch 10 No l, who copies the snail
on the branch, and then No. I gives his
own sketch 20 No. =. Then No. : gives
his TO No. 3, and SO Oh until the No. 10
concludes the circle. Nine Of them have
not seen the original What kind Of
picture would be turned cut at the end Of
the series. Something probab bly, with but
the vaguest resemblance 10 the snail
Primitive man may have made a nfelike
sketch of something, which, passing TO a
second generation, bore no sernblance TO
the original Then n scrath or q scrawl
may have meant a horse or wolf. Thus
may have come hieroglypbs, and later on

was given by Professor Downie last
evening, il being an evening OF travel
Through Great Britain and Ire
land" The descriptive narratives of
the lecturer. interspersed with gems
from the lines OF Moore. Scott, Burns
an dByron, was intensely interesting
and as the beauties OF nature that in
spired the lines appeared before the
eve in all the gorgeous coloriny which
art has mde so perfect the listeners
could easily imagine himself travelling
with his guide through these lands Of
beauty. poetry and dreams. The ex-
pressions of delight and admiration of
those present were mingled with re-
greet that so few of our citizens arr
ayailing themselves OF these artistic
and literary treats.
This afternoon at half past two
o'clock a matinee will be given, the sub
ject being Columbus and the Worlds
