but easy work to dispatch the animal.
The trap II then rebalted, and the

next snare, and so on until he has made
the round At the camp the rabbits are
hung head down on the outside of the
camp, where they freoze and are kept
in good condition until the day of the
feast. The night before Thanksgiving
the animals are taken down from the
peg, thawed out a bit before the camp
fireplace and their pelts removed. Aft
er being cleaned the meat is thrown
into big kettle with liberal supply
of onions, potatoes, carrots and other
vegetables and allowed to simmer over
a slow fire.
The dish when served with a side
dish of dressing and mug of cider
with Just bit of edge on is hard to
be beaten by any culinary artists.
Almost as good as the rabbit stew is
the plum pudding. which the cook
takes pains TO have extra good on
Thanksgiving day and Christmas day.
Unlike the pudding of that kind, it Is
made with fresh bread, molasses and
all the plums the mixture will stand.
1t Is put in the oven early in the morn
| ing and allowed to remain until ready
| to be served as course with the
mince or apple pie, piping hot and full
of the elixir of life.
OF course the baked beans must be
! served on Thanksgiving day, but they
| are cooked just a little bit better than
those doled out during the week. They
are served for breakfast. The beans
are picked over and the poor ones re-
moved the evening previous to Thanks
giving and after being allowed to re-
main in salt cold water for a short
time are put in a big kettle with plen-
ty of pork and buried in the ground on
a bed of glowing hardwood Goals.
When one rolls out of his bunk In the
morning, shivering just bit from the
cold, big dish of the smoking baked
beans is found on the table. Besides
the beans, there will be brown bread
such as cannot be constructed in any
other part of the world, some cold
cream of tartar biscuits, molasses and
dried apple sauce. Besides, there are
plenty of tea and coffee without milk
but which is good enough to keep out
the cold until early in the afternoon
when the Thanksgiving dinner is
served

work of slaughter. Most of the rab-
bits make their winter home under low
scrub bushes of hard wood and hunt
for food under the dead leaves which
have been blown from the trees during
the fall frosts. These mounds of
leaves are just the place to conceal the
strands of wire and horsehair to be
used as snares, and it is indeed wise
rabbit who can escape the trap.
A liberal supply of whole corn and
oats is used as bait for the rabbits,
being scattered under the leaves in
close proximity to the snares. The
wire is run for some distance along the
surface of the ground and is then at
tached to the strand of horsehair with
loop and running moose in the end.
In this moose more corn or oats are
placed than anywhere else, and the
rabbit invariably spends much time
over a few kernels of the grain. 1t is
while thus loafing over his food that he
meets his doom.
After breakfast has been served in
the camp and the men have gone to

have far to go from the starting place

With grateful hearts let all give thanks,
All lands, all stations and all ranks
And the cry comes up along the way,
For what shall we give thanks today?
For peace and plenty, busy mills,
"The cattle on a thousand hills"
For bursting barns, wherein is stored
The golden grain, a precious hoard;
Give thanks.
For orchards bearing rosy fruit,
For yielding pod and toothsome root
And all that God declared was good
In hill or dale or field or wood,
Give thanks.
For water bright and sweet and clear,
A million fountains far and near
For gracious streamlets, lakes and rills
That flow from everlasting hills;
Give thanks.
For summer dews and timely frost,
The suns bright beams, not one ray lost
For willing hands to sow the seed
And reap the harvest, great Indeed;
Give thanks.
For hearth and home, loves altar fires;
For loving children, thoughtful sires;
For tender mothers, gentle wives,
Who fill our hearts and bless our lives;
Give thanks.
For heavens care life's journey through
For health and strength to dare and do,
For ears 10 hear. for eyes TO see
Earth's beauteous things on land and sea
Give thanks.

JUST WHAT THE TERM
HORSE POWER MEANS.

Very few people realize just what
a horse power, as expressed in en-
gineering terms, really means.
When it is stated that the world s
largest Curtis steam turbine, which
drives an electric generator in the
Watershed station, New York, de-
velops 10000 horse power the mean
ing is vague and incompFehensible,
imagine this term reduced to man
power and almost everyone can
grasp its full meaning. If it takes
twelve men to equal one horse pow
er then this mammoth turbine en-
gine develops - times 10000 or the
working energy of $50, 900 men. If
these men worked in eight hour
shifts each day it would require the
services of 1,0S0,000 men every
twenty-four hours to produce the
working energy of this single tur-
bine unit.

LATE MAJ. GEN. 0'REiLLY
SERVED IN MANY WARS
He introduced the Policy Of compul-
sorry incubation In the Army.

Major General Robert Maitland
O'Reilly, u. S. A., retired, who died re
Gently in Washington, was surgeon gen
eral of the United States army from
1902 until 1909, physician and close
personal friend OF the late President
Grover Cleveland and the only medical
officer of the regular army who held
the rank OF major general.
He was the son Of the late John
O'Reilly of Philadelphia and was born
in that city Jan. Il, 1915, his ancestors
having been OF distinguished Irish
stock settled in Pennsylvania before
the Revolution. General O'Reilly was
not a West Point graduate. but received
his education and medical training at
the University of Pennsylvania, where
he was a student toward the end OF the
civil war Leaving the university, he
was appointed for civil war service on
Jan. Z, 1854, as a medical cadet, and al
the close Of the war returned to the
university to complete his studies. In
1867 he entered the regular army rs
assistant surgeon and passed through
the various grades until in the fali OF
1902 he was appointed surgeon general
of the army, with the rank OF brlgadlei
general, by former President Roose
welt.
1t had been General O'Reilly's pleas
ure in recent years to be able to point
to the fact that his appointment to this
office was made solely on his record
President Roosevelt never met Genera
O'Reilly. who at the time of his ap
pointment was stationed in California
and insisted that the appointment or
new surgeon general, who should nave
charge of the health of the army
should be based only upon the recorC
of the appointee.
1t was about that time in 1902 tina
General O'Reilly lost through deatf
by typhoid sever his only son, the lat'
Philip Maitland O'Reilly, who had JUS
been graduated from the Nava
academy, and it was because he los
his son through this malady that Gen
eral O'Reilly decided that he would d'
everything in his power to contribute
toward cutting down the death rat'

BOY HAS ARTIFICIAL JAWS.
Joints, Omitted by Nature, Are Pro-
vided by a Surgeons Skill.

A remarkable operation was recently
successfully performed at Baltimore
hospital on a fourteen-year-old boy
who since birth had been unable to
move his jaws and had been fed
through a tube. His Jaw bones were
Itifr, with no normal "hinges."
The surgeon cut through the solid
mass of bone where the joint should
have been and modelled upon the sec.
tions actual joints, such as nature ordi-
narily provides. The child can now
move his Jaws normally.

DEMAND LOWER RATES.
1852 Montana Business Men Ask Re-

A petition has been filed with the in
terstate commerce commission which
constitutes a record in the history Of
the commission in two respects. 1t
contains the names Of 1862 separate
complainants, business men of Mon
tana, and it demands reparation in the
sum of 100000.
The complaint is directed against the
Northern Pacific railway and seventy
five other carriers, operating between
the Atlantic seaboard and the Rocky
mountains. It attacks freight rates on
all classes and commodities as unrea'
sonable, exorbitant and discriminatory
and a reduction Of from 25 to 80 pei
cent demanded, according to the char
acter Of the articles transported.
Damages in the sum mentioned are
demanded for alleged excessive charges
on shipments during the years 1910
1911 and 1912.

SALMON CAN ON CATS HEAD SIX
DAYS.

That a cat can live six days with
out food was demonstrated last week
at the home of Matt Stephenson in
Bradford county. Monday Mrs.
Stephenson threw an empty salmon
can into the yard. About this time
their cat disappeared. On the fol-
lowing Sunday the cat was located
about one-half mile from home with
the empty salmon can fast over its
head. From a sleek cat it was re-
duced to a mere skeleton. How il

JACK KELLY. IN LOS.
Maderista Officer Says America Should
 Intervene in Mexico.

Colonel Jack Kelley, the Ma deriSta officer, who executed Colonel Chiapas, the Diaz regi- mental commander, is in Los Angeles, says the Los Angeles Examiner.
 He sent a telegram to Presi- dent Taft yesterday urging the United States immediately to intervene in Mexican affairs.
 At the Van Nuys Hotel last night Colonell Kelley said: The United States is the most humi- Hated nation in the world. I have appealed to consuls in all coun- tries and have yet to hear of such lackadaisical treatment as is afforded Americans in danger in Mexico.
 Americans are surely in grave danger in Mexico. Orozco and bis followers have no idea of law or ethics. The salvation of Me xico is in the Stars and Stripes.
 1T have wired President Taft, asking him to intervene in Mex ico. and have pledged him my services if he should need them for information or fighting. would be glad to bring Orozco oyer the line The execution of young Fountain was nothing but murder No other word can be applied to the act. Other Americans will suffer his fate unless the country guards it's subjects better than they have in the past.
 Madero is a bright, progres- sive leader. Perhaps he is a few years before the times, but that is what Mexico needs. His policy during his own uprising was to refrain from any act which might cause intervention by the United States. He fought a real war with civilized warfare Now some parts of Mexico are at the mercy of a man who is a brigand.
 Let the United States take 8 firm grip of the Mexican trouble and it will be over in two weeks At this time there should be American soldiers from here to Veracruz.
 Colonel Kelley will shortly return to Mexico. He owns oyer one and a half million acres Oi land in Sonora county and is famous as figther.
