SCI HIS OWN LEG.
A Good Rabbit Story Which Comes
All the Way from England.

A Good Rabbit Story Which Comes
All the Way from England.
A correspondent of the London Spec
tator says: 1t is not often worth the
trouble to write the biography of a
common rabbit, but our Jack" is an
exception to the rule. He bought
him from a poulterer at the door one
day for cd, so we knew nothing about
his antecedents. He grew into a huge
brown creature, and might easily have
been taken for hare. One of his ears
was Topped, which gave him quizzical
look which made us often think he
was laughing at us. As time went on
lie developed sense of humor seldom
met with among animals. The garden
gate was generally kept locked for his
benefit, but one day, as i'll luck would
have it, it was left open, and a huge
dandy dinmont, watching his oppor-
tunity, ran in and caught Jack by the
leg before he knew what was happen
ing. One wall of pain, and he fell down
ward apparently stone dead. The wall
brought out his young mistress, who
carefully carried her pet into the house
in her apron, and laid him tenderly in
the terriers basket.
How l wish l were a DOCTOR" she
said, land could set Jacks leg!"
Her little brother. hearing this, ran
off, without a word to anyone, to fetch
a young doctor he knew a little-a
clever surgeon. Unfortunately the doc
tor was out, and the boy had no chance

last December for that purpose. Mr..
Harding declined to consider the first pro-
position and Mr.. Allison then returned to

with Mr.. Davis and sumitted a modified

Mr. Davis went 70 Boston and spent two

Mr.. Harding and within few days after
his return 20 Boston, he wrote a contract

There was a piece of his right shoe at the
switch frog and part of it was still on
Reynolds foot, which was ably mashed.
His right arm was almost torn loose from
the socket and his right side was a man
gled mass. 1t is thought that when he
stepped in between the care he was coupi-
ing and in attempting to step out his foot
slipped on the switch and was caught
under the wheels. The corner of the car
struck him MASKING in his side and throw
ing him to the ground. DR.. Thomas was
called, ut the man was dead. The c0ro-
ner's jury found that Reynolds death was
purely accidental. Reynolds was proaly
so years old and leaves q. wife and two
children, aged probably three and five.
He had a $1,000 life insurance policy which
he had just renewed the night before he
was killed. He was a policeman for sew
eral months in 1895.

HAS GONE TO WAR
Ed. Hornecker Notifies His
Father by Postal Card.
STARTS FOR BROOKLYN
Gets Off His Bicycle on to
the Train.
STARTS FOR BROOKLYN

One Sedgwick county man has gone to
war. Yesterday Frank Hornecker. who
lives seven miles west on Thirteenth
street came to town TO take home
a bicycle and other personal property be-
longing to his son Ed. who left the prop
erty here and went TO Brooklyn. n. Y.
where he has the promise Of g position
in the United States navy. Young Hor-
necker came 70 town Tuesday afternoon
on his bicycle. He ate dinner at home
and rode into town, arriving here about
o'clock There was a letter in the Of
fee here from the naval authorities at
the Brooklyn yards promising him a
place. He had some money with him, but
he had brought none Of his clothes. He
had made a few little purchases about
town. These, with his bicycle, he left at
Longneckers livery barn on West Doug
las avenue. with instructions TO send
them home to his father. He then wrote
his father a card stating that he would
leave in a few hours for Brooklyn, N. Y.
He left on the Santa Fe at $50.
Mr.. Hornecker knew nothing of the af-
fair till yesterday. When he received the
card they made an examination Of letters
which he had carefully put away in his
trunk and found that he had been car
rying on a correspondence with the naval
authorities for several months, but he had
not told his parents thing Of his plans.
He carried on his correspondence and
got away without letting them know his
intentions.
Yesterday Mr.. Hornecker said: ED has
had this army business in his brain all
his life and since the Cuba matter came
up he has been excited all the time. He
was all the while saying that those Span
iards ought to be licked. He has gone
