One-Armed Man Kills
Q Rabbits at l Shot

MARSHALLToWN, Ia, Dec. 21.-
Killing two rabbits with the discharge
Of single barrel OF a. shotgun is q
most unusual experience for any
hunter, to say nothing of the accom-.
plishment providing the hunter has
but one arm. Such a feat was the
experience of Dewey F. La Plant, q
Western Union telegraph operator Of
this city, who lost his left arm 20
years ago this winter hunting rab'
bits.
The other day La Plant went out rab.
bit hunting, the mere fact that he
had lost an arm at the game never
having caused him to be "gun shy"
A rabbit got up ahead of La Plant
and when it was far enough away SO
that La Plant thought he wouldn't
shoot him to pieces, he pulled the trig,
ger. The rabbitsfell dead in his tracks
and the very instant that La Plant
shot another rabbit turned somer.
sault and fell dead within few feet
of where lay the rabbit La Plant had
shot at. The second rabbit happens
ed to be in direct line also to receive
the charge from the point where he
was hiding, and La Plant bagged two
at the expense of a single shot.
