RABBIT SWIMS AND FIGHTS?
San Francisco Park Poiicersan's Re-

pletely High and Dry.

One by one the old theories are re-

tradition. backed by generations, of OBJ
servation, chat rabbit can hklther
swim nor fight. But along comes Ser

park police with bonlbshell and when
the noise and smoke has cleared away
though hitherto unknown fact has
not been established.
According to McGee, quoted by the
San Francisco Chronicle. plain,
everyday cottontail has suddenly APP
peared on the island in Stow lake and
driven everything else away. Never
before has rabbit been seen on the
island. which is separated from the
mainland at its near It point by fifty
yards of water.
Albert Chacquett . guardian of the
lake and its waterf l., was the first
person to discover fne presence of the
rabbit on the isla IA said Sergeant
MCGEE in his repo, I. From the main
land shore he saw II in furious combat
with big settir brant. The battle
ended in the bird being driven into the
water and swimming, with loud
squawks of dismi y and protest, to the
mainland Ever breeding mudhen,

the rabbit in uGdisputed possession CT

'Chacquette," McGee's report con-

new-found pugnacliy may be due to its
browsing too freely on the leaves OF
the juniper bushes. that grow thlckly
on the island. His idea is that the
leaves fermented in The animals stum-

knows who has tried 1t. might make d

to get there. Also, the waterfowl that
usually breed there at this time of

that nobody seems to be abla 70 ex-

The crabs equivalent TO the internal

blood into the body. and this greatly
reduces the bulk Of the appendages.
When the crab has thus escaped from
his old shell he is quite soft and forms
q dainty meal for his enemies; his pin
GERS, too. are useless, So while his
new outer shell Is hardening he has
to hide in some Granny In the rocks
This new shell would obviously be the
same size us Cor even a trifle smaller

quiet. as he is quite unable TO grow"
when once the shell has hardened.
To overcome this difficulty he swells
himself out by absorbing as much wa

artificially distended condition ill the
new shell hardens then he at once
gets rid of the useful water and leaves
himself plenty of room for growth.
The young crab changes its shell In
this way about twenty times during

Among the vessels to be disposed OF

hovers an intense sentimental interest.
T A somewhat similar step was taken
by the admiralty in 1904, when large
number OF obsolete vessels were dis
posed of. At that time great hue and
cry was raised as many persons feared
that the strength of the navy would be-
seriously impaired. But, az matter
of fact, the sale of the ships resulted
In making the navy stronger than ever
and the coming sale is expected to
have similar effect.
The removal of obsolete vessels In
1904 had two-fold purpose, and In
both respects was justified by the war.
