His Sons Go Rabbit Hunting.

CHI CHARLOTTESVILLE. VA, Dec.
29.-Theodore Roosevelt Jr., and SUI
geon General Rixey joined the presld-
entail party this afte, noon at Pine
Knob, Mrs. Roosevelts country place
in Aibmarle county. They brought
with them three bea"le hounds and
two white settlers. The hunting at
Pine Knob will begin at once.
The presidential party's plans wer e
handicapped this afternoon by diiz-
zling rain, which by clock had be-
come heavy downpour.
A pack of hounds from the kennels
OF Plain Dealing. the Wilmar estate,
which is by the Roosevelt country
place, were held at Pine Knob, in
waiting for the presidents arrival
The president is divorcing himself
entirely from work of any kind during
his outing.
RICHMOND, VA Dec 30. Pres
ident Roosevelt and his younger sons
spant the morning rabbit hunting. An
interesting bit of news is the fact that
a second small house is being erected
near the original cottage at Pine Knob.
1t is furnished with cots. stoves, etc. :,
and is otherwise comfortably fitted up.
Mr.. Wilmer, the presidents friend
and nleghbor at Plain Dealing, was in
Rich mond today, but would not say
any thing about the presidential plans
for fun and relaxation at Pine Knob
He said he was chiefly concerned lest
the presidents desire for complete re-
tirement during his holiday should
be thwarted by too great anxiety on
the part of the public to know of his
every movement.

PROSPECTS GOOD FOR NEW
BELLINGHAM-SPOKANE ROAD

BELLINGHAM, Dec. 29.-The
Bellingham. Spokane railroad Subsidy
committee is trying to close contract
with construction company to take
over the 81, 400, 900 subsidy and build
the line to Spokane. A leading mem
ber of the committee declares that II
the contract is secured there will be
no difficulty liz n-raising the 81, ,o0o, ,e09
auportioned TO this city. There are
good indications that the coistl uction
company, with which the committee
is labnring., will take up the project,
perhaps in few days.
If the Bellingham Bay improvement
Company and c. y. Larrabee give as
m ch as it is believed they will there
will be little more than $3.50, 600 to
raise among the smaller property hold
ers. and these, no doubt, will respond
if assured that the construction COM
pany stands ready to build the system.
1t should not take more than mo-
nth to obtain their cooperation it is
believed.

The dog got life, liberty and the
right to pursue tine end of its tail. All
dav long in the deserted fiat the syke
terrier barked to his hearts content.
Neighbors heard his lit tie feet patter-

yelp with JOY when the electric bell
rang, or as some one passed the Green
landing on the second floor. There was
no one to chide. 1t was fine Chri stmas
FOR the dog.
