TRAPPING EAGLES.

Net and Deeoy Bird.
Every year. according to an old Gus
tom, in the second quarter of the Sep
TENDER or October moon. the inhabit
ants of the Chinese province of shan
tung go to Mongolia to hunt the eagles
which abound in that region. The
huntsmen march in troops along the
roads, carrying on their shoulders long
poles from which are suspended their
baggage and provisions and on which
are rerched tame engies TO be used as
derOyS.
The hunters make use of a large net
spread open on the ground and baited
with small dried fishes. in the midst
of which is placed tame eagle. The
decoy naturally begins to devour the
bait and thus invites its wild cousins
to follow is example. When the birds
have an-hted and are feeding the
hunter, from his hiding place two or
three hundred yards distant. quickly
closes the net by means Of cords and
thus captures the eagles.
Eagle hunting is very lucrative. The
feathers are used in the manufacture
of fans and are sold at high price
even in China. There are three sorts
kicpei. black with white centers: Che
ma. white spotted with black; Tout,
sing. half white and half black. Sew
eral eagles contribute to the making
of fan. for only a small part of the
plunage can be utilized; hence these
fans are very costly.

An1uSen1entS
"WaIIinqford."

An event of more than ordinary i'm
portans in the amusement field will
occur at the Gennett Thursday, Oct
pated play Get Rich Quick Walling-
ford" will be seen for the first time
in this city. New York city and Chi
cago have stamped Wallingford as a
success of unusual significance. In
the first named city the Cohan comedy
ran for almost two years, while it's
continuous prosperity in Chicago last
ed for nearly fourteen months.
The tremendous vogue of this play,
which each succeeding performance
demonstrates as the best offering Geo.
M. COhan has given to the American
stage. is the tribute being paid by
thousands of the admirers of this gift
ed genius who has repeatedly sup
piled his following with plays of OBJ
vious moral initiative, introduced in
an atmosphere of compelling laughter.
Prototypes of Wallingford, the shrewd
financial operator of the comedy clas-
sic are to be found in countless num-
bers, but to vitalize the type as the
author has done, to present him in a
way that awakens the sympathy and
compels the love of an audience which,
though realizing that he is no more
nor less than commercial bucca-
neer, are still in accord with his get
rich-quck schemes, is piece of stage
craft equalled by few playwrights of
modern times.

DAUGHTER WOULD

Grace Poole. Teaches School
to Secure Funds for
Fathers Defense.

LAFAYETTE, Ind, Sept. SOTO
raise money with which to conduct a
legal fight to save her father from the
gallows, Grace Poole, daughter OF John
w Poole, the Benton county farmer
accused of numbering Joseph kemper,
his farm employe, and burying the
body to hide the crime, braveiy faced
an assemblage of taxpayers at Wheat
field, Indiana, who sought to have her
discharged from her position in the
public school there because of the no
toriety which the case brought to her,
and pleaded with them not to con-
denim her for something she had no
more to do with than they.
The story of the girl tragic diem
ma and its consequences came to light
in the proceedings in the circuit court
being set for trial November 13. Miss
Poole is standing by her father when
all the other members of the family
have deserted him. She declares he
is mentally unbalanced and not re-
sponsible for anything he may have
done, but she does not believe he muir
dered Kemper.
The young woman, who is twenty
two years old, was just starting in
special course of training for teaching
at Chicago university when her faith
er's arrest and the sensation it pro-
duced called her home. This is her
second year in the Wheatfield schools.
She has done excellent work there, it
is said, and was re-engaged by the
trustees for another year. When she
returned two weeks ago to resume
her teaching she found conditions
changed. A number of the patrons of
the school insisted that she be dis
charged because she was the daughter
of John Poole, the murderer" The
girl bravely bore the attacks and the
trustee promised to stand by her. She
| made personal pleas to many of the
people who assailed her, telling them
she was entirely innocent of any Of
tense and that it was wrong to hold
her responsible for the conduct of her
father.

platform. She explained her position
and told them that if she were dis
charged she would have no way of
raising the $500 needed for her faith
er's defense. She told her hearers
| that she believed her father innocent
and that it would be criminal on her
part not to stand by him and give him
all the support possible. She told
them of the sacrifice she was making
and begged them not to prosecute her
further. The girls touching plea
caused many in the audience to burst
into tears and when she concluded

with the young woman and assured
her that she would have their sup

1.-THE Rosary"

Rowland and Clifford's play The
remarkable success. This play, as ev-
erybody remembers, was the hit of
last season, when it broke many house
records for big audiences. The play
was written by Edward E. Rose, auth
or of The Prisoner of Zenda," and
many other successes, and has become
as much of a favorite with the theater-
Mr.. Roses former dramas. The play
from the start tells how Bruce Wilton
has amassed fortune which he law
ishes on his wife, Vera. Their home
is a happy one until there creeps into
it a note of menace. No one hears of
it at first except FIR. Kelly, a priest,
the former tutor of Bruce. Quietly he
goes to work to find the preson who
is causing the adverse influence in the
household. Almost on the verge of
discovering the cause, calamity de-
scends upon the Wilton house. Bruce's
fortune is swept away and in such a
manner that he believes his wife the
cause of his ruin. Husband and wife
are separated, the home is destroyed,
and yet the cause of all this disas-
ter is unknown. FIR. Kelly, however,
with resolute zeal, perseveres in his
work, to fathom the mystery and final
ly succeeds in his undertaking. He
finds the one who has caused all the
misery, and eventually restores the
home. The scenic environments OF
the play are extremely attractive. and
place much credit on Rowland and
Clifford's efforts. The play will be
seen at the Gennett tonight
