was a tall, strongly-built man, with a
weather. beaten face and grizzled hair
1t needed but a glance to know that
he was one who could both give and
take hard knocks. There was nothing
repulsive about him, however. On the
contrary, he seemed to be honest, good
natured, and thorough gentleman in
the best sense of the word. Entering
into conversation with him, l learned
that he was from the west and had
Travelled extensively through all parts
of the United States, especially the
wilder parts. We soon became fast

We had both travelled far that day
and were not inclined to sit UP very
long, so about 10 o'clock we retired to
our room and went to bed l fell asleep
almost as soon as my head touched the
pillow. How long l slept | do not
know, but | was awakened by sounds
of distress from my room mates bed
AS l awoke 1 heard him cry as if in
great fear: Don't kill me- / am inno-

was followed by a choking sound that
made my blood run cold. Jumping out
of bed l turned on the light and looked
toward his side of the room, fully ex-

take me with him. This man, who
called himself Bill Warren, was an
evil-looking fellow. but rather than
wait longer 1 decided to accept him as
a travelling companion.
Before daylight the next morning
the start was made. We had only one
horse each, and these were obliged to
serve as saddle horses and pack horses
at the same time. This made our
progress rather slow. We had ridden
some ten or twelve miles when l
thought l heard hoofbeats behind us.

of horsemen following us at full speed.
AS they rode they shouted something
that sounded like Halt l was about
to ask my companion what it all meant,
when I saw him suddenly cut the strap
which secured his pack, letting it fall
to the ground. Then, putting spurs to
his horse. he was off like shot. l tried
to follow him, but was unable to keep
up. Our pursrars were gaining rapidly,
and l now heard them order me to halt
and throw up my hands, threatening to
shoot if l did not obey. AS there was
no possible chance to escape for

With their demands. A moment later

BORING FOR RABBITS
A Wire Cable and a Bitstock the
Outfit Used

1t has remained for La Crosse sports
man of an inventive turn of mind to
provide rabbit hunters with an mani
mate substitute for a ferret, the use of
which is prohibited by the game laws
of Wisconsin, bitstock and flexible
wire cable attached to a perforated iron
bulb being capable Of driving bunny
out of its subterranean home.
! At this season of the year rabbits are
in their prime, and within a small radius
of Milwaukee they are extremely plenti-
ful, but the wet weather during the past
week was unfavorable for hunting until
| Thursdays cold wave froze the surface
Of the boggy ground frequcnted by rab-
| bits and gave the hunters a more Sc
cure footing. In Waukesha county,
and particularly in the immediate vicn-
| ity of PeWaukee lake, between Water
town and Madison. west of Racine and
in Dodge county, Milwaukee hunters en-
| joy their best sport in December and

seize the rabbits in their burrows and
enjoy a feast while the hunter impa-
tiently waits above for the temperance
of his quarry.
With the new hunting apparatus,
| however, the hunter is equipped With a
ldeVice which is sure to drive the game
| to the surface and give him a shot. The
cable is flexible, but sufficiently rigid
to cause the iron bulb attached to il
t. rotate positively throughout the en-
| tire length Of the burroW, following each
ramification with lateral snake like

| rabbit has taken refuge and then the
| lit brace revolved to the right. pushing
on the cable at the same time. The
bulb will follow all the deviations in the
! hole until it strikes the animal which
! becomes sufficiently alarmed to leave
its refuge and take to the open. TO
withdraw the apparatus the operator
| should continue to reVolve the brace
to the right, but pull on the cable. The
threads on the bulb and coupling are
made right-handed, as are the strands
of the cable.
If the hunter desires to smoke rab-
bit out of his hole. he can fill the iron
bulb with cotton waste saturated with
Kerosene or powdered sulphur, and then
heat the metal until the filing begins to
smoke. After inserting the cable in the
burrOW one of the holes should he closed
and the rest is easy, providing the
hunter is proficient in the use of gun
This winter a number of hunters have
also used a section of a garden hose
which they insert into the rabbits bur
row and then use the hose for a speak
ing tube. A horrible racket is created
by this method, and the game is scared
out, but the cable and bulb is said to be
much more effective.-Milwaukee Sen

to carry a deal of weight, for though
there was no end of grumbling, l was
unbound and placed upon

without incident. They went no further
