GREAT RABBIT ROUND UP.
Indians Of the ella Valley Corral 1000
of the Animals.

New York Sun.l

A horde of bowling, copper-colored
braves, dense mass of long eared,
gray-furred rabbits, a dozen flights of
arrows, and then an onslaught with
heavy mesquite-wood clubs; an acre of
ground covered with heaps Of dead rab-
bits. feast on the slain. then the sleep
of the glutton; such in brief is the con-
clusion of the annual jack-rabbit hunt
Of the Pima and Maricopa allied tribes.
As far back as go the traditions OF the
Indian, these rabbit chases have occur
red The Indian still disdains to use
modern weapons in his chase OF the jack
and adheres to the arms which were
used by his forefathers-blunt arrows
and clubs.
On the ella River reservation, twenty
miles south of Phoenix, the greatest
roundup of rabbits ever known within
the memory of the Oldest Indian in the
ella valley took place last Tuesday. The
rabbits this year have been particular
" destructive to the Indian crops. and
it was with the hope of driving the Jack
rabbit from the lower valley that the
big roundup was held.
From the Salt River reservation came
nearly 100 bucks, and from all parts OF
the reservation along the ella not fewer
than 400 men and boys were present for
the chase. Early in the morning the
chase began.
A party Of tourists from the east came
from Phoenix to see 1t and were guests
of Chief Hermo.
From high butte they watched the
roundup, and then hurriedly mounted
and rode in as the circle narrowed and
came together. 1t was a motley crowd
that herded the Jacks. The Maricopas
are men of unusual size and height,
On the puny Indian ponies the contrast
Is marked.
In an hour the circle has been COM
pIeted. In compact formation and
with ear-piercing cries the raiders drove
together the frightened rabbits. So close
was the line that few rabbits attempted
to escape.
In less than two hours the line had
closed in on the quarry, and a tumbling,
panic stricken lot Of rabbits tossed
about in the space within 1t. At a sig
nal from Chief Antoine. volley of ar
rows flew into the center of the circle.
yolley followed volley. and then two
score small boys went into action. With
clubs alone they completed the slaugh-
ter In less than an hour the work was
completed and the count began.
More than 1900 rabbits made up the
bag and the day had broken the tribal
record. Chief Antoine explained to the
whites that more than 1000 jacks had
never been killed in days hunt be-
fore.
In two hours the feast began and the
boiled meat was hurried into the stom-
achs of hungry hunters. The meat Of
the young jack is much like that of the
cottontail. the rabbit of the east, while
the flavor of the older meat Is unpleas-
ant to whites The Indians. tho make
no distinction, and for two days the
feasting continued.
Part of the meat was dried for winter
use and the furs made into blankets.

RULED OUT OF ORDER.
BaIfour Questioned Regarding Roose'
veit's Letter to Irish.

London, Oct 23.-Wiliam O'Brien
created a great deal Of excitement
among his fellow Nationalists in the
house of commons by questioning Pre-
mier Balfour regarding President
Roosevelt's letter to the convention of
the United Irish league at Boston,
Mass. Mr.. O'Brien asked the premier
if he had observed that Mr.. Roosevelt
sent letter and whether in view of
future relations between the United
States and Great Britain he could
make any announcement that this
country was not indisposed to learn
wisdom regarding Irish affairs from
the head Of great and friendly nation
The speaker promptly ruled the
question out of order to the evident
chagrin of the Nationalists, whose ex
citement increased as Mr. O'Brien con
tinued to press his point. He urged
that this letter of the president was an
international fact of the first impor
tance to the future of Great Britain
and that it would no. be friendly
thing to the head of a great nation
that his letter should be treated as II
the house Of commons was disposed to
"avenge an insult to the chief secre,
tary for Ireland and his removables. :
The speaker maintained his ruling
and Mr.. O'Brien tried to move an ad.
jeurnment of the house to discuss the
matter, but the speaker ruled that ii
was not matter of definite impor-
tAnce.

GOVERNMENT MEETS DEFEAT.
German Reichstag Makes Amendments
Ig.8 to the Tariff Bill.

Berlin, Oct. 23.-The government
was defeated in the reichstag during
the day in test votes on the tariff bill
by the Conservatives and Centrists in
serting in the ministry's bill amend
ments fixing the minimum wheat du-
ties at $1.5O per metric hundred weight
in place of $1.37 and the rye duties at
$1.S7 instead of $1.25. y.
The minority was composed of Ma
tional Liberals, Socialists and Rad
icals. Previous to the roll call, Chan
cellor Won Buelow again firmly an
nounced that it was impossible for the
government to accept the amendments.
Three courses are now open to the
ministry the reichstag, ne
gotiate for compromise, or let the
majority pass the bill In a 81 form it
chooses and suppress it In the bundles
rath. In the last event. commercial
treaties will be negotiated on the basis
of the present tariff. The chancellor's
plan appears to be to do nothing imme-
diately and see if the majority will
yield. Il g,S hi. '#Ss3

Copenhagen, Oct. 23.-The lands.
thing rejected the second reading OF,
the bill providing for the ratification of
the treaty between Denmark and the
United States in regard to the cessione
of the Danish West Indies to the latter
country. The vote stood 80 to 80,
tie. The announcement caused the
greatest excitement in the house and
demonstrations on the part of the
spectators. ~ a.@
In the voting there were two Austen
tions. The Rightists and two Independ-
ent Conservatives opposed the bill.
The Leftists and six Independent Con-
servatives supported it.
p. The vote was taken without any de-
bate and the result was greeted with
mingled cheers and shouts of disappro-
baton.
Crown Prince Frederick, all the
ministers and many members of the
diplomatic corps and members of the
folkething were present. The public
galleries were crowded.
The sale of the Danish West Indies
to the United States is developing
more absorbing general interest than
any political question in years. During
the past fortnight the situation seems
to have changed in favor Of the anti.
sale party. There are sixty-six mem.
bers Of the. landsthing. Thirty of these
are against the. sale, thirty-one fav-

full. Two did not vote. One of the
opponents named Thygeson is eighty
seven years Of age. He came from Jut
land to vote against the bill. He still
holds the Office of general inspector OF
the Danish North sea plantations.
The cabinet held a meeting imme
diately after the rejection of the bill
and the ministers unanimously agreed
that the action of the landsthing did
not necessitate their resignation.

Jury Pronounces Death Penalty and
Crowd Seizes Prisoners.
Hampstead, Tex, Oct. 23.-Jim Wes-
ley and Redick Barton, negroes, were
strung up to the same telegraph pole
Tuesday night by an infuriated mob.
Both negroes had been found guilty
of assault and murder and the death
penalty was fixed by juries on which
served several negroes. Once during
the trials a mob broke into the court
house but was dispersed.s
Immediately after the trials were
over and sentence returned several
men in the courtroom overpowered the
sheriff. The mob again entered and
took Wesley in charge. The mob then
broke into the Jail and secured Barton.
The men were hung on the same tel
egraph pole where like fate was met
by negro the week before.

CAUSES NO SURPRISE.
Washington Feared Adverse Action on
.- the Treaty,

the Treaty.
Washington, Oct. 23.-The state de-
partment has been advised of the &C.
tion of the Danish landsthing in re.
jecting the West Indian treaty of ces-
sion. The action causes little surprise
for earlier advices received from
Copenhagen indicated that the fate of
the treaty hung on the slenderest
thread, and only in case the treaty
could be brought to vote before one
or two members of the landsthing, who
were ill, had so far recovered as to be
able to attend the sessions, would it
be possible to succeed with the meas
ure. From the press account Of the
vote it appears that one Of these i'll
members unexpectedly appeared and
turned the tide. The officials here are
not precisely advised as to the legis-
lative possibilities in Denmark, but
even assuming that this action is final
for the present session they are dis
posed to view the situation philosophic-
ally, resting in the belief that it will
only be short time before Denmark
will tire of making good a deficit in the
revenues of the islands and let US
have them. .r "-1 u..

Washington, Oct. 23.-After hover

December Mrs. Ada Gilbert Dennis,
the victim of one of the most mystic
