WHITE HOUSE GROUNDS
HOME Of MRS. RABBIT
Gray Cottontail and Brood Protect
ed by Police at Personal Order
of President.

The doings of a gray rabbit have
brought to the police of the White
House grounds endless trouble through
an order issued directly by President
Wilson.
This mother rabbit strayed into the
grounds. made nice, soft lined bed
ana deposited therein six cute little
buf nies. Then she discovered she had
made a mistake, as one of the White
Hbuse dogs roamed through the
grounds and would have been tickled
immensely to get bite of young
rabbit. So one night eight or nine days
ago she logged one little rabbit at a
time to a new home less than fifty
yards from the front door of the execu-
tive offices. There the hiding place
was discovered by man, another enemy.
The story leaked, and White House
clerks and others visited the shallow
hole in the ground, covered by soft ma
terial, under which the little Dummies
lay.
President Orders Nest Protected.
Returning from a ride one afternoon,
President Wilson saw three clerks
from the White House STOPPING over
the nest. He called an officer and gave
order that the rabbits were not to be
molested, and that prying humans were
to be kept away from Mrs. Rabbits
home.
One by one, though. the number of
tiny rabbits has dwindled to a total of
two. The recent heavy rains drowned
several. and the nest has been in such
a public place that the mother has been
unable to visit the little ones to give
nourishment except far into the night,
when strangers were not SO plentiful
and policemen not SO vigilant.

deprived for three years of all civil and political rights.
 Heretofore speculation in Hungary has been curbed principally by means of law, reading as follows:
 ''The ministry may. for the duration of the war, in order to assure to the population steady supply of food stuffs and necessities and to prevent the forcing up of prices, apply suita- ble measures in the production and dis tEbution of these articles, included a. mong them such emergency regula- tions as are needed even if these be in conflict with existing laws"
 A similar law was adopted in Aus tria, but in both countries spectators tried hard to evade the letter and spir- it of the regulations which resulted from it. Most of those who have done so have been made to account. and in dealing with them the civil courts have been less relenting than even the military authorities. Meanwhile lesson in economies is taught, which, as many here believe, will not be with out beneficial influences after the war. The governments campaign against the useless middleman" and speculat- or is followed by the consumer with an interest and approbation not likely to terminate with the coming of peace.
