When the rabbit awoke the air felt warm and he saw too, that the snow was gone-only little remaining here and there on some mountains, The cake of Ice was no longer moving, but had stopped In little cove against a bank on which was short grass and beautiful moss. On the land he saw birch and hemlock trees and under them great white creatures moving about or jumping and frisking together. A thrill or Joy shot through the rabbit
 He recognized the place and the brothers and sisters he had wandered from and lost for so long, He sprang to the land and ap- preached them. They saw him, too, and many hopped to him. All were as large as himself, some much larger. Tney asked him all sorts of questions, and, sitting in circle around him, listened to his story of the world he had seen; the dreadful hot countries, the strange food, the strange creatures, and particularly the dreadful two legged one, so small that It was hardly as large as rabbits forefoot yet caught the largest creatures and Killed or tanned them.

 Now the place where the Giant Rabbits were, was valley in the far hidden and un- known north and they were the last Of the great creatures that once lived in the land. No Traveller or other Creature had ever found them, and here they lived happily ever after. Perhaps they are there to this day.

he heard terrific crash, roar as of a hundred trees failing, and the shouts of men, then the whole herd of elephants streamed into the forest, free again The Giant Rab- bit hastened to join them, in spite of his fright at such a loud noise, but to his dismay none of the elephants would notice him. Even the Old Elephant forgot to thank him for his great kindness in saving them from a-life ot captivity, but walked away as If the Giant Rabbit did not exist at all.
 Sung by thls ingratitude and with his foolish soul filled with sorrow and grief, the poor Giant Rabbit fled away into the desert again. For q long time he did not stop to rest or eat, but with great leaps sped across the plains of sand. After several days Of wandering on in this way the Giant Rabbit noticed a change in the appearance of things and In the air. which grew chilly and dry. He had come to land where there were neither lakes nor forests, nor warm, shaded hillsldes where partridge berries grew. Instead there were bleak stretches of cold, bare rocks or of snow and ice. The Giant Rabbit went on his lonesome journey. He no longer saw any creatures except noisy focks of birds flying above him. There were birch and hemlock trees and the rocks were covered with sweet moss, yet the snow and the cold grew ever deeper and sharper.
 At length the solitary rabbit came to a wide and slightly flowing river upon which were fields of Ice To cross the river the rabbit sprang upon large cake and sought 10 leap from cake to cake until he reached the other side, but the ice cake bore him swiftly away, and soon the space between the cakes was too wide for him to jump

Mir Good Fairy's face frightened.
 They deserve the worst of punishments," he said severely. "I believe will not only make them learn the rule for cube root but make them write it backward in Latin After that you can be certain there will never be another revolt in my School for Gnomes"
 Tommy was mortified at this punishment- It seemed a cruel punishment to be in hicted, even on the worst of rebellious gnomes. He hinted that he was sorry for the poor gnomes.
 Sorry for them?" almost snarled MT. Good Fairy. Think of me and the troubles l viii have between Mrs. Good Fairy's new hat and her old temper"
 Tommy wondered how Mir. Good Fairy would be able to catch all the gnomes, but Mir. Good Fairy said that would be easy.

 Soon after this they all went to sleep, the Elephants by themselves, the Giant Rabbit out on the pain, curled up like white hill of snow, md when he awoke in the morning all the Elephants were gone. The next day the Giant Rabbit went to work on the tree again. He gnAwed and gnawed until at length the great tree began to bend under It's own weight. The Rabbit came away and the Elephants All pushed against the tree with might and main. Then with mighty roar the tree fell. crushing many smaller trees beneath It. The noise was delightful to the Elephants, but the poor Rabbit fled away, in sore terror, far into the desert. The Giant Rabbit remained In the desert Tor many days, It's poor, timid heart beating hard. It did not dare venture back among It's friends the Elephants. One dAy as It sat before Its house, dug deep In the side of bank, afar off 1t saw something coming. When this object drew near the Rabbit per ceiyed if to be Its friend, the Old Elephant. He was dusty and sore and covered with blood streaks, while in his back was sticking a dart or arrow. The Old Elephant was walk ing sadly. looking, however, on every side.
 The Giant Rabbit emerged from his bur row, and when the Elephant saw him he gave a loud trumpet of joy that came near frightening the Rabbit away again.
 '.stop, my friend" cried the Rabbit, in weak faint voice. "I am not yet over my fright at the fall of the big tree. Speak to me softly"
 The old Elephant patted his friend the Rabbit affectioLately with his trunk and said:
 My dear friend, come and help us again. 1 alone of nearly all the herd have escaped from the hunters. All my brothers, une'es and friends are caught In great wooden trap; they cannot move, for their legs are tied with ropes, aor could they climb out, fer the sides of the trap are formed or great trees driven Into the ground"

 "You see,' he continued, Mrs. Good Fairy taught the school for gnomes In the same way that she ran her school for elves. Now elves are always getting into trouble and have to be watched and scolded every minute, but tell a gnome to do a thing and don bother him, and he will do 1t and do il right; but If you stand around and nag and scold him the gnome will get sulky and refuse to work. The first week Mrs Good Fairy was In charge of the school there was no outbreak, although 1t was plain the gnomes were get ting angrler and angrier. At last one day, when Mrs Good Fairy's temper was exhaust ed, she told all the gnomes that they would have to stand with their faces against the

Until this particular Saturday 1t had al- ways been Tommy Tucker who wanted help from Mir Good Fairy. But this time things were changed, and 1t was Mir. Good Fairy who asked advice of Tommy.
 Tommy knew there was something seri- ous the matter as soon as he looked at MT. Good Fairy s old white hat While Mr Good Fairy had had troubles of his own before. this was the first time he had ever been too discouraged to brush his pet hat.
 Such doings," said MT Good Fairy in his most doleful tones, when Tommy asked him sympathetically what the trouble was. Would you believe 1t, there has actually been a revolt in my School for Gnomes"
 Tommy opened his eyes wide with sstonish- ment when MT. Good Fairy said this. As every one knows, the gnomes are generally

Of course she was wild with rage She went right to the Good Fairy Police station and had a lot Of the gnomes arrested The rest got away and are running around wild. The whole affair made great scandal, and I'm sure I don't l get them back in school. So thought maybe you could help me. What does your teacher do to you when you misbehave r in quired Mir. Good Fairy anxiously.
 "Of course I never misbehave," replied Tommy with dignity, although sometimes the teacher, or even my father, who ought to know better, thinks 1 do. Then they take long switch and use 1t in a most un- kind way. It doesn't matter exactly what they do, but t hurts good deal"

 So strong and gentle and fleet? His bridle and bit are the purest gold,

 Tt was all Mrs. Good Fairys fault, said Mir. Good Fairy-but In cautious tones when Tommy asked him how the formerly faithful gnomes had happened to go wrong, "although she meant 1t In all kindness. She had given her elves a vacation during the summer and as she had nothing to do she proposed that I should add couple of weeks to my vacation and she would run my classes for gnomes in the meantime. l was doubtful about the plan from the first, for teaching gnomes Is quite different from running school for elves.

And really, 1t isn't the right way to treat a white beard ed gnome over hundred years old, as many of them are. When the gnomes heard thls order they broke out, and such a scene was never before witnessed in Good Fairy schoolroom.

MANY CRIMINALS PUNISHED
to Five Years Imprisonment
ON TWO Charges.

Judge John B. Vreeland held special
session yesterday afternoon to try
several Italians who were arrested on
a charge of burglarizing a store up at
Port Morris.
Before their appearance Frank Me-
Lean, alias Michael Dowd, who was
also arrested in connection with the
same matter, was released from Gus
tody owing to the lack of evidence.
He had been arrested and indicted.
but the only evidence against him was
that he was seen in a neighboring
house ON the night on which the rob
berry took place.
All five Italians pleaded guilty to
receiving stolen goods and were SEN
fenced as follows:
Patsey Spositi about fifteen, was
placed in charge of the probation of
ficer for one year under suspended sem
tence.
Theresa Churchill, $50 and costs.
while her husband, who pleaded guilty
to receiving stolen goods, knowing
them to be stolen, on June 10, 1902
and ON January 81, 1908, received three
years in States Prison at hard labor
and years for the second offense, the
term to run one after the other, not
withstanding the plea that Lawyer
Barlman made to have them run con-
secutively.
Tony Priori received sentence of
three years at hard labor, while Joseph
Fele was fined 800 and costs of prose-
cution.
The last case taken up was that of
Hilda Meyer, of German Valley. This
person was indicted for assault and
battery on her young daughter and
when the case was tried, about two
years ago, she was found guilty and
the Court imposed fine of S25.
This sum she agreed to pay by send
ing So month to the sheriff, but up
to now she has only made one payment
and was finally ordered to appear be-
fore the court. Judge Vreeland agreed
to let her go on her promising to pay
So by Wednesday next and another by
the first of April.
Should she not do this, the court
will send for her and possibly keep her
in jail. After this the court adjourn
ed until next Wednesday at ten.
