Hunting Rabbits.

The Hon. Tom Johnson is hunting rab-
bits in Kentucky in the same devil
wagon he USED m ms recent chase OF
the octopus in Ohio. He shipped mis-
automobile by rail to WilllamstOwn. the
county seat Of Grant county. and about
thirty miles south Of Cincinnati. Grant
is one OF the poorest counties In Ken
lucky. but its red hills and ashen val
Ieys abound in rabbits The report has
it that the mayor Of Cleveland and can
didate for William Jennings Bryans
mantle has gone TO Kentucky 10 hunt
bear and deer. but as there are nothing
but rabbits in Grant county there IS no
chance OF his encountering either the
danger or excitement he is supposed to
be looking for. There is no more harm
less animal in the world than the rabbit.
and the Grant county specimen is 80
poor and hungry that he can neither
run fast nor long. Mr.. Johnson must
have known all about the game before
he left Cleveland. for he was born and
reared in that part OF Kentucky. where
his devil wagon is perhaps today
frightening the human denizens worse
than the rabbits. The adjoining county
Of Scott is his native heath. There the
Johnson clan had its stronghold in Ken
tucky for half a century. Richard NJ.
was the most famous member OF the clan
until the man who is now mayor OF
Cleveland began TO fill the planet with
noise. Richard NJ. Johnson was Vice
President Of the United States about
fifty years ago. and in his day was to
