The Tale or Tail of a Rabbit.

Liz 1al6 Idll OF q tCADDlL.
Our neighbor, the popular shoe man,
Ed Grassfield, came down town one
day last week with his eyes fairly pop
ping out and apparently in very ex-
cited frame of mind. We are general
ly hanging out in the vicinity of his
down town home and upon seeing him
in so unusual q mentality came to the
rescue with a tab, pencil and 15499
questions, mostly bearing on his person
al and private affairs. In explanatum
he told US how friend of his who re-
sides down on the Buffalo was in that
morning and told him the only and con-
sequently proper way to catch rabbit
was to put salt on its tail, whereltpon
this otherwise difficult task becomes as
it were, in the language of the street
gamin, "pud." In the joy of this
newly learned method, Edward fastened
home at the noon hour and to his de-
light he espyed Sir Bunny on whom
to perpetrate this prescription. Obtain,
ing the salt quickly, he started after
Bunny but this individual fled from the
salter and the salt and SO the chase be
gan. 1t was lively one according to
all accounts. We are crediatbly in
formed that Ed had to run "like the
dickens whether this was Chas. Dick.
ems or some of his family, we do no,
know. We have never had the pleas
ure OF personal acquaintance with Mr.
D. or any of his relatives, 30 can moi
vouch for their sprinting ability. The
fact remains however that he gambolled
about the green after Mr.. Cottontail in
particularly interesting fashion. And
finally the poor rabbit, tired out by his
enforced vigilance, ran beneath the
front porch and the family tabby cat,
chasing in after him, 80 disconnected the
fatigued beastie that he ran vertically
into the arms of our friend, who was
kneeling in anxious solicltude before
said porch waiting to put the salt OIL
buns posterior appendage. Here the
excitement grew 80 intense that the
reader will have to supply an ending to
the tale, but in proof of the above, two
little rabbit feet are on exhibit in Grass
fields shoe store. We have been SC
busy since hearing this tale of rabbit
wishing our friends would remember
US with substantial Xmas gifts-that
we haven't had time to deduce moral
to the story, but we know there must
be one.

Nicaragua Waits On
The United States
{ From The New York Herald

The Managua correspondent of
the g Herald" telegraphs that in
government circles in Nicaragua the
plan to transfer the Panama Canal
to the control of an American syn
dlcate is not regarded as significant
or important. Nicaraguans believe
that the proposed canal across their
country is more feasible than the
Panama project, and expect its cons
tructi0n.
President Zelaya placed full con-
fidence in the Grace syndicate, which
obtained a concession something like
a year ago, but the Nicaraguan gov
ernment would now prefer to deal
directly with the United States in
the matter, and, provided equitable
conditions colhd be agreed upon,
without the CessiOn of any Nicar-
aguan territory, there would be no
opposition from the Nicaraguan Pres
ident Zelaya is ignorant as to when
the Grace syndicate means to begin
work, but he is very desirous of
treating with the United States, if
settlement with the concession
naireS can be effected, and he is
prepared to offer much more favora-
bic conditions than any heretofore
granted.
The constitution of Nicaragua
fOrblds the ceSSion of any territory,
but President Zelaya believes that
lease Of one hundred or two hundred
years may be obtained under fair
conditions.
The =" Herald'S " correspondent at
San Jose telegraphs that the govern
ment of Costa Rica would naturally
prefer the Nicaragua canal to the
Panama, and would support all eff
forts loOkingsSto its construction.
President IglesiaS has shown a
disposition of American control of
tho canal, but, Judging from the
opinion OF we'll informed outsiders,
it is generally believed that the e
would not be any official opposition.
The government of Costa Rica
has thus far refused to enter into
any negotiations with the Grace
syndicate, as it does aot consider
that the former conceSsion-that of
the Maritime Canal Company-has
yet expired, and it is not thought in
San Jose that the Grace syndicate
has muc chance, for the present at
least, of obtaining "A concession from
Costa Rica similar to that which il
holds from Nicaragua.
