plain, little, every day plebeian rabbits sometimes appropriately called 'cotton- tails" Though they may be "defamed by every charlatan-' among hunters of self-constituted high degree, and de- spised by thousands who know nothing of their game qualities, l am not ashamed of their pursuit; and l count it by no means bad skill to force them by successful shot to a topsy-turvy pause when at their best speed.
 These sly little fellows feed at night, and during the day they hide so closely
 in grass or among rocks and brush that it is seldom they can be seen when at rest. Of course, no decent man will shoot a rabbit while sitting, and I have known them to refuse to start for any thing less than kick or punch. When they do start, however. they demonstrate quite clearly that they have kept their feet in the best possible position for a spring and run. After such a start the rabbit must in fairness be given an abun- dant chance to gain full headway, and when he has traversed the necessary dis tance for this. and Is at his fastest gait the hunter that shoots him has good req son to be satisfied with his marksman- ship. I once actually poked one up and

he escaped unhurt, though four loads of shot were sent after him.
 In the main, however, dogs must be relied upon for the real enjoyment and success of rabbit hunting. The fastest dogs are not the best because they are apt to chase the rabbit so swiftly and closely that he quickly betakes himself to a hole or other safe shelter instead of relying upon his running ability. The paving of three or four good dogs stead ily@following a little cotton-tail should be as exhilarating and as pleasant to ears attuned to the music as If the chase were for bigger game. AS the music is heard more distinctly, the hunter is al-t lowed to hatter himself that his acute judgment can determine the route of the approaching game and the precise point from which an advantageous shot can be secured The self-satisfied conceit aroused by a fortunate guess concerning this important detail, especially If sup plemented by fatal shot, should per- init the lucky gunner to enjoy as fully the complaeent pleasurable persuasion that the entire achievement Is due to his sagacity. keenness and skill. as though the animal circumvented were larger beast In either case the hunter expe- riences the delight born of a well-fed sense of superiority and self-pride; and this, notwithstanding all attempts to keep it in the background, is the most gratifying factor in every sporting in- dulgence.
 Some people speak slightingly of the rabbits eating qualities This must be an abiect surrender 10 fad or fashion. At any rate it Is exceedingly unjust to the cotton-tail; and one who can relish tender chicken and refuse to eat nicely cooked rabbit is. I believe, a victim of unfounded prejudices
 Why. then. should not rabbit hunting. when honorably pursued. be given a re- spectable place among gunning activities? It certainly has every element of ra- tional outdoor recreation. It ministers to the most exhiarating and healthfuI exercise: 1t furnishes saving relief from care and overwork; 1t Is free from wan tonness and inexcusabIe destruction of

Crockett and the Mules.
From Harper,s Weekly.

From Harper's Weekly.
 When Davy Crockett sat in the national legislature as a representative of the state of Texas he had many clashes with men of more education but less wit than himself. It is told of him tna. one day while standing in front of his hotel on Pennsylvania avenue, a swarm of mules trotted by under the custody of an over seer from one of the stock farms in Vir- ginia. A congressman from Boston, who was standing near by. attracted Crock etts attention 10 the unusual sight, say ing:
 Hello there. Crockett: here's a To. of your constituents on parade. Where are they going?"
 The celebrated hunter looked at the animals with a quizzcal glance, and then turning to the other, said quietly, but with great emphasis, They are going to Massachusetts to teach school"

flies or mosquitoes. It is quite within reason to suppose that the addition of rabbit hunting to the ingredients that simmer in summer recreative reading might be as refreshing as the addition of Ice to an otherwise tepd summer tip pie.
 Some hunters there are, of the super refined and dudish sort. who deny to the rabbit any position among legitimate game animals; and there are others who, while grudgingly admitting rabbits to the list, seem to think 1t necessary to excuse their concession by calling them hares. l regard all this as pure affectation and nonsense. deem 1t not beneath my dig nity and standing as a reputable gunner to write of the rabbit as an entirely suitable member of the game commu- nity; and in doing so I am not dealing with hares or any other thing except
