alarmed, opened the window, saw a
policeman, and he made rush for the

the husband appeared before his panic

Agility Of Hares and Rabbits.

Interesting figures ON the relative
agility of hares and rabbits are given
In a volume by j. G. Millais. when
running at ease" he says, "the length
Of the hare's stride is about four feet
but under conditions Of fear its leaps
extend to ten and twelve feet, while
some authors claim that 1t can Jump
fen bitches twenty to twenty-five feet
in width. Perpendicularly hare can
jump on to a five foot wall, but seems
to be nonplused by one about six feet.
The stride of the rabbit is about two
feet. When necessary it can make
leaps Of six or seven feet horizontally.
About three feet Is the highest that
rabbit can attain to even when helped
by the asperities Of a stone WALL" Mr..
Millais tells how rabbits swim-when
compelled to: "They swim with the
head held as high as possible, while
the hooks of the hind legs appear
above the element at each stroke. The
shoulders and front part Of the body
are buried beneath the water, while
the rump and tail are high and dry"

He Liked the Family.


Governor Claiborne f. Jackson Of
Missouri married five sisters. After
one wife had been lost and appropri-

and he kept his counting within mar

rather liked the family.
The venerable father of these girls
was almost deaf, and when the gov
ernor went to this octOgenarian to ask
for his surviving daughter the follow

"WEARY Will LIE" COMING.
''A jolly ;AmeriCan Tramp" at the
Grand "Wednesday Night.


There is to be play Of strongl heart
interest at the Grand theater tomor-
row night. in which the nerve and
go-aheadativeness of the:typical Amer'-
can will ne shown in:sits true quality.
The piece. (which claims to do this is
Manager U. D. Newel's great comedy
drama, ga jolly American Tramp.
which not only depicts the trials, tribu'
.ations and hardships of an honest
workman, who, through adverse stress
OF circumstances, was compelled to be
hobo, but it also shows the magnanimity
OF this same ramp,swho, after being re.
habiltatedi in society, not only forgives
but forgets all the injustice that has
been done him and aids others equally
distressed to bear their burden and be-
come reconciled to fate. The play, while
playing on the heart strings, also con-
tains many ludicrous and laughter-pro-
vokng situations and intensely stirring
climaxes. There will be specialties OF
an interesting nature. The cast is the
best obtainable and contains such well
known players as Jim Smith, who essays
the role OF the Weary Willie in "A Jolly
American Tramp" and who is said to be
the best deineator OF the genus hobo on
the stage; his makeup is reported to be
perfect and so exact that were he to
leave the stage in his tatters and rags
our police would surely send him to the
workhouse purely on his looks.
