Staying THE RABBITS.
Hunters Find Bunnies Are Easy Pick
ing Nowadays.

Hunting is fairly good. If 1t is just
sport one is after he can find plenty
because rabbits are plentiful. The
snow makes 1t difficult to find meals
and as result rabbits are run
ming about the fields more than they
would be was there no snow covering
the fields.
The roads are in such condition
that hunters can tramp long ways
without growing tired and as the
fields we're not entered between the
rain and the freeze 1t Is hard walking
over them.
Rabbits are now getting their fin
est eating season and a rabbit, well
prepared at this time Of year, ought
to awaken anybody's appetite.

Abilene businessmen Say Il Is Good
Thing.

The talk Of building an inteFurban
line through Dickinson county has
caused much agitation among the
farmers as well a. the businessmen
Of Abilene. Following are some In
terviews with prominent businessmen
Of Abilene and huatling farmers 81
Dickinson county:
J. M, SteeIsmith hustling real e.
tate dealer: i think there is not
anythlsg more applicable for q per-
son in the rural districts than an In
terurban road. ! came here from
Indianapolis, Indiana, and the inter
urban lines there have increased the
price Of land from five to $50 per
acre. One cannot comprehend what
an interurban line means until he
has been in a place where he can see
its benefit.
What J. B. Case, one of the commit
tee to get the road started thinks
about 1t: II am convinced that 70
per cent Of the holiday trade came by
railroad. This shows the Importance
of having an interurban line. My
Judgment is that 1t will make a city
Of Abilene and at the same time dou-
Bile the population Of Dickinson coun-
ty."
j. A. Flack, cashier Of Abilene
state Bank, said: IAN industry that
increases the general volume Of bust
ness increases the business center.
BY pulling through this line there
would be greater demand for land
and for industry. It would not In
crease the crops 50 much as II would
increase the number Of people 70
raise the crops" a ava NM
@. a. Rogers, president Abilene
National Bank, said: rIt is q good
thing and we ought to have IT."
J. T. Prendergast: y would ike
to see the road built. 1t would be
a great help to everybody, especially
to the people of Abilene"
J.E. Brewer, one Of the interurban
ne committee: can interurban line
hid be a most profitable thing tor
farmers and citizens Of Dickinson
sunty that could be put through az
q present time. 1t will increase
the value of the farms from $40 to
s25 per acre. We, who are connected
with the organization Of the line are
not expecting any individual profit
out of the venture, We are doing
1t for the benefit Of the people"
DR.. A. B. seelye; ut is step
in the right direction. We want
good transportation facilities. u
would be a great benefit to my own
business and am strictly for IT."

A Fast Mountain Climber.

Alma Hollingsworth, of Portland,
Ore, has made one of the fastest of
all ascents of Mount Hood She has
far surpassed the climbing records of
other women who have gone up the
mountain, and only three men have
beaten her speed, both on the climb
and on the descent. With three
friends and a guide. she reached the
snow line in the afternoon. There part
of the night was spent, and in a few
hours the party began to go through
the five miles of snow to the summit
The start was made at $3.50 a. m. and
the crest was reached at noon. Here
an hour was spent and then all the
way down the mountain, and on to a
hotel, reached at IL p. m, giving a
total distance for the day of 28 miles.
A dance was in progress in the hotel,
and Miss Hollingsworth had enough
left for lively two-step.-New York

messenger Girls"

The messenger boy has a rival in
Germany, where in number of cities
girls have been enlisted in the serv-
ice. Despite the imperial edict
against the use of foreign words the
new recruits are known as "messen-
ger girls" and are becoming popular
with the public. They wear a uni
form consisting of round cap fast
ened under the chin with a strap. The
cap is like that worn by the English
soldiers, and the girls, evidently know.
ing their derivation wear them jaun-
tily over one ear. The coat is of light
cloth, with black trimming, and closed
with three frog buttons. A black box
pleated skirt and black leather port
folio, in which documents or small par.
cells may be carried. complete the uni
form, which Is said to be exceedingly
pretty.

MlmlcrY In Fishes.

In a lecture on fish photography at
the Royal Photographic society's exhi-
bition, DIR. Francis Ward said that the
power which certain fish possessed to
change their color in harmony with
their environment resided in their
eye. He placed pike In such posi-
tion that its head was in a dark cham
ber while the rest of its body lay in
bright sunshine. Although its resting
place was perfectly white the pike re-
mained black in color. But when he
reversed its position and caused
its head to be in the sun
light its color changed to a
very much lighter hue within the
space of a few minutes. 1t was evil
dent that in fish, which possessed pro-
tective powers OF this kind to a great
er extent than birds or any other
creatures. the light acted upon the OPP
tic nerve, thus causing the pigment
cells all over the skin to contract or
