Original Niblo's Garden,

The original Niblo's garden was on
the northeast corner of Broadway and
Prince streets, New York About 1900
the site, which was a part of the old
Bayard farm, was used as a circus and
training ground for race horses and
was called the stadium. Shortly after
the war of 1912 it was used as a drill
ground and early in 1923 it became the
Columbian gardens, with light summer
entertainments. in which the best
singers, dancers and specialists of that
day appeared. William Niblo took a
lease Of the place year or two later
and converted it into an ornamental
garden, win trees, flowers. fountains,
etc, and in the centre sort of temple
for the musicians. This was the origi-
nal Niblo's summer garden On July
4, 1927 the Sans Souci theatre was
opened by Charles Gilbert in his gar
den and year later it became Niblo's
garden theatre.-Kansas City Journal.

The Habits of the Rabbit.

One morning after a light fall OF
snow during my walk through the
fields and woods, l saw a rabbit track
and a mink track together. l follow.
ed the trail to see what had happened.
l had not gone far when I discovered
tufts of rabbit fur upon the snow; a
few yards further and there were
drops Of blood, the rabbits leaps grow
ing shorter and shorter, and in a few
moments | came upon the half-de-
voured body of the rabbit lying in the
open. That the mink had run the
rabbit down and caught it was as plain
as the snow record could be. There
was no hiding under the snow by the
mink and not the least evidence that
the rabbit had been surprised. Rab-
bits see behind them quite as readily
as before, and no animal could steal
upon a moving rabbit at night and
not be seen.
And rabbits are always moving at
night. 1t is nocturnal animal. II
does not sit in its form all night to be
stalked by its enemies, or to be taken
by any sapping and mining process.
In daylight weasel might steal upon
it and seize it in it's form, but not by
night. In my part Of the country the
rabbit runs to hole in the winter and
passes the day there The boys catch
it with ferrets. The minks and
weasels catch it in it's hole alone.
My hired man. who is an old hunter,
tells me he once saw upon the snow
where mink had brought rabbit
out of hole and carried him a long
distance to his den He followed the
rail and saw By the imprint upon the
