bring us to. A year ago there were no
Belgian hares in California. A Los
Angeles newspaper printed an article
on Belgian hares. There are now said
to be 10000 Belgian hares in Los An
geles, and the demand for them for
breeding purposes has kept the prices
so high that they are too expensive for
food. The desire to own and breed
them has extended swiftly eastward.
Before it has become too strongly root
ed, Secretary Wilson wants to ascer-
tain whether there is not danger that
by letting the craze go on the country
may be called upon to face the problem
encountered by Australia in its effort
to get rid of rabbits, the fight for rab-
bit determination in that country hav-
ing cost the government more than
$5,000,000 up to 1888. Kansas has paid
more than $4,000 year in bounties
for rabbit killing In California they
still have rabbit drives" to kill off
rabbits by wholesale, and in the San
Joaquin valley it is estimated that
100000 rabbits were killed in drives
between 1888 and 1898. If it shall be
found by the investigation about to be
undertaken that the Belgian hare is
likely to become as great a nuisance in
wild state as other rabbits that have
exhausted farmers and treasures, Sec
tary Wilson will sound a note of warn
ing. They may be quite harmless in
captivity, but when the first pair OF
Belgian hares has burrowed out into
favoring conditions it may cost mil
lions of dollars to repairethe break

ed as many gems as were found this
year. Through the summer many
gems are thrown aside as culls, but
men are left at the mines all through
the winter, and they devote their spare
time to sorting over the culls. There
would, however, be no danger in leav-
ing the mines unguarded through the
winter, for nature protects them. After
the water freezes no one can extract
the sapphire from their hard clayey
bed. The output for this season will
De very large, and some particularly
fine stones have been secured. The
largest stone yet found at the mines
was discovered early in June of this
year, and it weighed nineteen carats.
The demand for the sapphire is con-
stantly increasing, and the supply is
insufficient, despite the fact that many
individuals are also engaged in min
ing them at various spots along the
Missouri river, in addition to the Yogo
mines. All the stones are shipped di-
rect to London, where many of them
are cut while others are sent to Ant
werp for that purpose But about half
of the product finds it's way back to
the United States, several large Amer
lean companies having contracts with
the English firm to which the mining
company sells it's product. The duty
on the cut gems is only 10 per cent
The actual mining season is from April
Is to October 81, or until the water
freezes. There is no indication that
the mines are playing out; on the con-
trary, they seem to be getting richer.
AS by-product, considerable corun-
dunn is being mined, but this will be

become exhausted, the railroad would
make the mining of the latter a most

Iege education, save $500, go west,

Roosevelt is now hunting lions. This
is the advice given to young men by
DR.. D. X. PeaTsOns, the grand old
man" among ChicagOs millionaire phil
anthropists.
There are not enough college bred
men in the country DR.. Pearsons con-
tinued. This is shown by the difficulty
which is always experienced in find
ing a man for the presidency of a col
lege when the head of the institution
dies. College men of push and energy
are so sought after by the great cor
pOTatiOns that the trustees find the
most desirable men already occupied.
So 1 say young man should first get
education Then if he is in search of
wealth, j advise him to go west where
he can take in nature as a partner and
profit in the development of the cOun-
try. There are immense beds of an
thraCite coal in Colorado and Utah and
an effort to locate my claim as near as
possible to the coal fields"
DR.. PeaTsOns grew warm in urging
the opportunities for the young men of
today and said:
If a man is going into a prize fight
he carefully trains his muscles and he
should make as careful a preparation
if he plans TO enter the strife of bust
