FROG HUNTING AT HEIGHT.
Furnishes Sport to Hundreds OF Mis-

Furnishes Sport to Hundreds of Mis-
sissippi Valley Dwellers.
Clinton, June 1S.-One summer sport
along the Mississippi river about which
little has been written, tho it fur
nishes hundreds after hundreds of val
ley jewellers with an occasional lively
day. is the hunting Of frogs, which
abound In the marshy lands along the
mighty stream.
This year the frogs are particularly
abundant. They are of unusually
large size and the frog hunters are
now in their height of the season. OF
course the object of the pursuit and
slaughter is the requirement of the
palatable frog's-legs, which always
find a ready market at prices some
thing in excess of those brought by
the quail in season. or any OF the
other game varieties of flesh. The
tiny legs of the Mississippi river frog
are worth something like a cent
apiece, two cents pair. about
quarter dozen: and the hunters. who
go after the frogs for the market
rather than for their own tables, real
lie good wages from the occupation.
All SoflS OF weapons are useu
against the agile green frog Of the
Mississippi valley: the gun. the spear,
and the switch. Many hunters arm
themselves with small rifles and shoot
the frogs as they sit summing them
selves on the river bank. Specially
designed spears with long handles
and small forks are effective, in the
hands Of skilled froggers: but by far
the greater number of frogs are taken
by the aid of willow or Eastwood
switch from three to five feet in
length, cut from tree on the river
bank. The swish of the limb brings
swift and merciful death to the
frog.

The Secretary of Agriculture is said to
have shown interest in the matter. but

ST. PETERSBURG. February 1s.-The

ciety. have assumed the proportions of a
veritable war scare. 10 which the sensa-

The situation is taken seriously not only
in military circles, but also by conserva-
tive politicians. NJ. Guchkoff, the leader
of the majority in the duma, announced
his intention tonight of raising at the next
meeting Of the commission of national
defense the question Of the nations readi-
ness for war. This, he believes. is of the
most vital Importance in view of the news
from the Caucasus and all parts of
Europe. He also proposes to interpellate
ability Of the railroads, particularly in the
Caucasus and Transcaucasia, to trans
port troops quickly to the southern and
southwestern frontiers

permits the country again to be drawn
into war, for which it is wholly unprepar-
ed. The surest means to avoid a rupture.
he said is serious preparation for any
eventuality.
NJ. Khvostchnsky. the vice President
of the commission. also thinks that the
situation is grave and takes issue sharply
with a number Of generals who appeared
before the commission and said that in
their opinion the possibility of hostilities
this year was excluded.
The general staff continues to give the
situation the most serious consideration.
although yet no reports have been re-
ceived here regarding movements of
troops in the interior. But persons ar
irving from Siberia say that for several
months there has been an unbroken move
ment of Siberian troops to the southwest
in the direction Of the Transcaspian dis
trict and Turkestan. from which they
could be most easily concentrated on the
Turkish frontier.
