Mr. Culver caught Susanna's two

Slaughter Of Rabbits.
Thousands Killed and u COvOt1
Tramplcd to Death by the
Frightened Rabbits.


FRESNO, March 3l.-The great
rabbit drive, which was So deliberately
planned. was TO day carried into sue.
cesstul execution. with the result that
thousands Of rabbits met their fate
from the merciless clubs of farmers
and town people. Estimates as to the
number killed vary, ranging irom
10000 to $4,000. 1t was impossible
To count them and the best estimate is
no better than guess. But the
slaughter surpassed anything OF the
kind ever seen here before.
Ten thousand people took part
footmen, hOrsemen, wheelmen, and
vehicles of all sorts. When the line
was formed ready for advance il was
in a huge crescent, one horn near
Mcmillan station and the other near
Caruthers, on the west side of the rail
road. The line of people was twenty
four miles long. 1t was after 10
O'Clock when w. +. R0well signalled
a general advance, and the line moved
forward across orchards, fields, vine
yards, and finally emerged on the
open plains The best of order was
maintained. The marshals gallopel
along the line giving instructions.
Toward noon the north and south
wings began to fold inward To the
centre, and when within three miles
OF the corral the line of men had con.
tracted till il was less than three miles
long.
All this time the rabbits had been
driven forward, constantly increasing
in numbers. At first they had not
shown much concern, but when they
began TO be crowded they grew excit-
ed. Several covotes were started.
Some we're shot, and others died later.
Some whelps were caught alive.
Many rattlesnakes were killed.
When the rabbits had been driven
into comparatively small space they
covered the ground, and soon grew
excited and tried to escape by rushing
through the lines Then the slaughter
began. A solid line of men dropped
on their knees and clubbed the rabbits.
From this point TO the corral men
advanced ON their knees, leaving the
ground heaped with the dead behind
them. Fully 10000 were thus killed
and the others were forced into the
corral, where they rushed to and fro,
frantic with fear. They trampled and
smothered one another To death by
thousands. \ covote that entered the
corral was actually trampled to death
by the rabbits. Fifteen minutes with
clubs finished the work.
Many good judges place the total
killed nj 10000. Farmers hauled
wagon loads away to feed hogs. The
best Of order prevailed. Only one
person refused To obey orders. He
was beaten and driven off the grounds
by the crowd. The drive was the
best managed, the largest and most
satisfactory ever held in the county.
