About two weeks ago two men,
farmers residing in the vicinity of
Greenbush, died suddenly. Examina-
tons showed that death was the result
OF imbibing too freely of an intensely
strong whisky which contained more
than the average amount of alcohol.
This discovery aroused suspicion there

Rabbits moved Down.

Abram Wister, farmer who lives
near Cannon Falls, learned that a
large number of jack rabbits were in
the habit of visiting an open spring on
his place to get a drink. To get to the
spring they had to cross a strip of ice
thirty feet wide, and while drinking,
to stand on the ice Immediately about
the spring. In circle around the
open water and extending out about
ten feet from it Mr.. Wister scattered
salt which thawed the ice on the surface
and kept it thawed, tho the temperate
ure was thirty degrees below zero.
When the rabbits came to drink their
feet were wet by the water on the sur
face of the ice, where the salt was, SO
that when they stepped on the clear
ice beyond the salt they froze fast IN
moment and stayed in that position
until Mr.. Wister raped them on the
heads and moved them loose with a
scVthe. -.-..-.

Former Governor of the Philippines

Washington, Feb. Gov. William

upon his new duties. The ceremony took
place in the large reception room at

war department and the transfer of au-
thority from Elihu Root, the retiring
secretary, to Gov. Taft, while simply
made, was more impressive than any
similar event in many years. ~
Hanging in his Office as the new sec
rotary was indicted into the arduous
duties of his post, was the picture of his
distinguished father, Alphonso Taft,
who was President Grants secretary of
war in 1876. Thus father and son have
held the same portfolio, this being the
second instance in the history of the war
department, the first being presented
in the incumbency Of Simon Cameron
under Lincoln and James D. Cameron,
his son, under Grant. 49,.

the ceremonial that has been in vogue
since his accession to the throne. Touch

II have watched with concern the
course of the negotiations between the
governments of Japan and Russia in
regard to their respective interests in
China and Corea, and disturbance of
the peace in those regions could not
but have deplorable consequences. Any
assistance which my government can
usefully render toward the promotion
of a pacific solution will be gladly af-
fOrded,"
