titled that he was in charge of the yacht

BUNNY COMES TO TOWN
Children on Fourth Street Have ,
Real Live Rabbit to Lay
Easter Eggs.

1t was a poor little bcdfcnched rab,
bit that was captured by some small
children on Fourth street yesterday
morning
Bunny was doubtless driven from
the cotton woods by the high stage OF
the rivers aud sought shelter in the
lower portion Of the city The heavy
rain OF Thursday night must have
driven the little animal from its
place of refuge and it was discover
ed by the little children. who hailed
it as an Easter offering sent to them
by some kind fairy no doubt, and pro
ceaded to capture bunny.
A nice comfortable home has been
provided for the little stranger in
strange land. and plenty of grass. APP
pie cores and other delicacies Of the
hare menu are being supplied.
The children are awaiting the com
Ing of Easter with much impotence
and will doubtlets awake ON that
and find a generous supply
OF bright hued rabbit eggs. The only
feature about bunny Is
that its coat of fur is not intermixed
with spots Of red. blue, yellow and
other Easter hues, but il is thought
the application of dyes may bring
about the proper transformation.
