There appears to be a solu-
tiOn for the OverstoCked owners
of Belgian hares. It is said
that party of New York and
Arizona capitalists are gong to
start an immense Belgian hare
ranch in connection with a can
merry where hare meat can be
prepared for the market. A
track of 600 acres will be Sc
cured and stocked with 100,-
900 hares. The capacity Of the
cannery will be 1000 hares per
day. The meat of the hare will
be palatable and no doubt a
large demand could be created
for it. When canned it is diff
cult to tell from chicken. The
proposed ranch will be estab
lished near Phoenix,-Ex.

The contention of the Salt
river valley people that sheep
running on the mountains effects
their water supply is without
any foundation. Four -fifths of
the water from the two forest
reserves run into the Little
Colorado, thence into the Colo

Salt or ella rivers. This is a
well known fact.

w iCh - - NAoNoiA ~ " luC SOh-
ductCr that the shack shall get
out and :'decorate," :" without
leaving his desk or interrupting
his labor of reading the daily
paper, he opens his emergency
valve, the elevator chair is shot
upward, forcing the shack
through the trap door, air is ad-
mitted to the cylinder of 1.-The
Little Rouser," the piston is
driven upward, and the iron pin
entering the most tender and
susceptible portion of the
shack S anatomy, causes him to
assume a vertical position.
Once the seat is raised by
means of this emergency appli-
cation, it cannot be lowered by
the shaCk's valve until sufficient
air has escaped through small
pin hole, provided for this pur-
pose, to allow it to settle about
four inches. This ordinarily
will require from three to six
minutes, and in that time the
train will have been met or the
station passed.
And again, if the conductor
wishes to ascertain if the shack
is wide awake, he has only to
move the handle of his three
way cock to its third position.
when all the air will be instantly
released from the pneumatic
tube, allowing the seat to drop
vertically about five feet to the
floor of the cabOose, carrying
the shack with it. This opera
ton is recommended to dispel
and discourage any tendency TO
drowsiness and is very effective.
One application is warranted to
give immediate relief and if per
sisted in to effect d complete
and permanent cure.
[ could enumerate the many
advantages of my invention,
but I feel that this simple de-
scription of it and the method of
its operation, has been sufficient
to demonstrate it's value. I
think all conductors and head
men will agree with me that it
fills a long felt want. 1.-THE
Little Rouser'' alone is worth
the price of admission.
For the benefit of those Gin
Guiding all conductors who are
directly interested, 7 will state
that the apparatus as above de-
scribed is now being set up in
our cabOose and will be com
pleted in day or two, when it
may be seen in operation. We
have a ready-made hind shack
here that we can use to illus
trate the practical working of
the machine, but conductors de-
sirous Of so doing are invited to
bring their shacks with them.
We expect to commence the
manufacture of the elevator
chair at once, and hope soon to
see it in operation in every ca
boose on the road. When it's
use becomes general the sight
of a hind shack on the top of d
train will not be so unusual as
to excite comment.

RAILROAD TATTLE.

[ have lately been devoting
all my leisure hours to the in
vention and perfection of a de-
vice to be placed in way cars
for the use and benefit of the
hind shack. My invention con-
sists of what may be called an
elevator chair, and is designed
to take the place of the ordin-
ary revolving chair now in use
in the cupola. AS my inven-
ton is something quite new and
original I trust that d descrip-
ton of it may prove interesting
to my readers.
To the floor of the caboose,
directly under the spot form
erly occupied by the shack's
chair, will be secured two one
inch steel rods, placed about
twenty inches apart and ex-
tending vertically from the
floor of the caboose to the root
of the cupola to which they will
also be securely fastened. Be
tween these two rods and at
tached to them by means of
suitable guides, SO as to permit
of it's moving freely up or down,
will be placed a plain, square,
hardwood seat. Under the cen
ter of this seat will be a tele-
scopic steel tube consisting of
six eighteen inch sections, con-
nected by the necessary cocks
and valves to the train pipe,
and SO arranged that by admit
ting or releasing the air from
the tube the seat may be raised
or lowered at will.
To the trainman, accustomed
to climbing up and down the
cupola ladder many times a
day, the beauties and advant-
ages of this device need no
eulogy from me. It's merits
must appear obvious even to
the lay reader.
There will be an opening in
the floor of the cupola OF suffi-
cient dimensions to admit of the
passage of the seat and the
shack. And a trap, consisting
OF two doors opening outward,
will be provided in the roof Of
the cupola directly over the
shack's head.
To the right hand side of the
seat is attached an angle cock
similar to the conductor S brake
valve, and by means of this the
shack can raise or lower him
self without leaving his seat,
When he wishes to ascend to
the cupola, he takes his seat,
opens his valve, admitting air
from the train pipe to the pneu
matte tube, and rises gently un
til he has reached the desired
elevation, when he closes his
valve and secures the seat in it's
position by means of a friction
latch provided for the pur-
pose. If on the other hand he
wishes to descend in order to
help himself to a cigar or a cup
Of tea, or replinish his pipe
from the conductors tobacco
box (after the manner of hind
shacks) he reverses the opera
ton by releasing his clutch,
opening his three way valve and
allowing the air in the tube to
escape to the atmosphere.
In addition to this three-way
cock to be operated by the
shack there will be a second
valve situated convenient to
the conductor S desk, by means
of which he also may control
the movements of the shack S
seat. And it is this feature
that renders the invention most
valuable and effective. When
trains are to be met or train or
der stations passed, by simply
turning his threeway valve the
conductor can release the fric-
tiOn clutch and shoot the shack
up through the door Qike a jack
in the box, ready to decorate.

for raising and lowering the
