HABITS OF HARES.
Making the Toilet Is a Long and

Mas KING Inc 8Uskea AE n Long and

A clever observer writes: n good
many hares find a secure retreat in the
sand hills during the daytime and feed
on the marshes in the morning and
evening The hour ut which most of
them leave the marsh varies, but it is
any time before 8 o'clock. All the

AS soon as the rain got really heavy
saw first one and then another hare
appear, as it were, out of the ground in
the middle of the Eelds and race for
the shelter of the sand hills.
"On their return to the hills in the
morning many Of them take up their
station on the sunny side of a fir tree,
generally on q slope, and sit there, Ell
Their among the fir needles or else on
the bare ground or sand, without any
sort of form apparently. They like a
warm, sunny seat, out of the wind, or,
In wet weather, sheltered from the
rain. Here they sit add sleep, unless

THE WATER system WAS BUILT.


and outlet pipes are located in the
bottom and are opposite sides of the
basin, and thus effect complete circu-
lation of the contents of the reservoir.
In addition to these pipes a 6-inch
drain is connected with the catch
basin in the center of the reseryair for
emptying the reservoir when desired.
There is also 2-inch pipe fitaed with
hoze nozzle, which can be used for
washing the walls should it ever be-
come necessary to do SO. All the
necessary valves controlling these
pipes are located in brick chamber
directly outside of the reservoir, and
the reservoir supply can be controlled
entirely from this point.
s... DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM.
The entire distributing system in
Guiding the main from the pumps is
of cast iron pipe of standard pattern
and weight, and aggregates about 4
miles i'm length. Size Of mains six
and eight inches.
MIGRANTS.
There are 44 fire hydrants in numb
er, of the Ludlow type. A hydrant is
located at the southwest corner of
each block. All hydrants are fitted
with two q inch hose nozzles, and one
4-inch steamer nozzle. All hydrants
located along the main distributing
pipes, and throughout the business
districts, are equipped with auxiliary
valves in Che supply pipe, and in case
of accident to hydrant, it may be cut
out independently without interfering
| with any portion of the water supply.
VALVES.
All pipe lines throughout the entire
system are supplied with gate valves
at such frequent intervals that in
case of accident to any particular
section, it can be readily cut out and
repairs made, and only the supply in
the immediate vicinity effected,

FAMINE IN COAL IMPENDING
Car Shortage Prevents Local Dealers
from Laying in Their Sup
ply for Winter.

Conditions in the car shortage situation
ali over the country are not improving
and the coal men of Omaha continue to
fear coal famine One said Tuesday that
the arrival OF coal scarcely supplies the
current demand and there is no chance for
the dealer to get any considerable stock
ahead for the winter. II is almost impos-
sible to get anything from the Kansas
fields, though shipments come little more
readily from Wyoming and Illinois, owing
to the fact that the railroads have direct
lines TO the coal fields in those two states.
Orders on the Pennsylvania mines have
been delayed indefinitely.
The reason for this condition lies I'm the
business the railroads are called on to do
in the way Of carrying merchandise and
grain. which are given precedence over
coal on account of the higher revenues they
pay
Grain dealers, however. also complain OF
lack OF cars. Local implement jobbers
have been put TO serious inconvenience.
They wished TO have large lines OF new
stock in the warehouses for the implement
dealers convention, which Is to be held
In Omaha next week. and they are in a
measure doomed to disappointment. Half
their orders have been delayed. and It is
regarded as certain that not all the goods
will arrive In time for the convention.

another resolution that the surety COM
