Thcroisan old man out In Mound Valley
who hns Ihsmi ndoptisl by a lot of Juck rab
bits. Their friendliness mid giKid feeling
liavo beeomo so obtrusive that tho old fellow
Would bo thankful if something would hn p.
pen to nheiiato their iiircctious. Ho is 11 bort
of hermit, living nil nloiio on his ranch,
whero ho devotes all his tlnio to cattle mid
liorso raising. As ho doesn't try to ralso
vegetables tho labbits could do hint no
harm, mid o ho litis ne?cr tried todrivo
them awny.
Tlioy t.0011 liecatno very Unite, and, ns tho
Jack rabbit Is rather an aireetionato animal
any way, they kept making moto ndvancis
nnd trials of friendship until they nnd tho
old mnn hnvo Ikh-oiiio ipilto hoelable. When
ho goes out after his cows two or throo dozen
rabbits will coino trooping along after him,
leaping around htm, running lictwccu his
legs, nnd nibbling his fingers. Very often a
drove of them will gather mound his cabin
and cut up all sorts of pranks In front of his
door, leap on ills ln.il, jump into lm chair
if ho isn't occupying tlio only otto himself
nnd noso around ntuoiig his kettles nnd dishes
for miiiic thing to eat. Several of tho most
intelligent ho has slngleil out for special
invors. 110 nn taught them a number o(
tricks, such ns jumping over a bar or
through 11 ring, walking on their hind legs
and jumping over ono another liko leap frog.
Hut the rabbits havaduvclonetl kihOi u lil.-i,w
for civilisation that they tiro nbout to tuko
oh&slo:i of his house, and hnvo oven begun
to roar their broods in it, so that the old man
hardly knows now whether ho owns tho
hottbo or simply lives there with tho rabbits.

A Washington letter gives a clover sketch
of tho converMttiou which recently took plaeo

hostess declared it to be.
"If my Inuguogo had lieen tnkoti down this

this:
" 'Howdoyott, MJrs. Jones? Oh, .Miss Ilrown,

"I hand over tho admiral to tho iicnrebt

caught her namo from tho mumbling lady
who brought her, so I rautnblo discreetly in

"Ily muflllng tho tones of tho voice nnd by
varying tho natural jiosltlonsof tlio totiguo
and tho boft pnlntc. Most of tho ellceU ui-o
produced In n falsetto toito. A great deal of
tho ventriloquist's success, however, depends
on tho imagination of tho hearer. Hy means
of skillful and apparently natural gestures
tho attention of tho nudieneo is diwrted
from tho ventriloquist himself to a point
from which tho oico or bound is supposed to
proceed. It is n fact that no 0110 of tho
human benses Is ttioro easily deceived than
that of hearing, becauso in listening to
60unds wo judge of their remoteness by com
paring them to oilier bounds w lioso distances

Is very hard. Tlio vontriloquiul ell'ect is

by obscuring tho consonantal sounds and re
taining unaltered tho pitch mid dui.itlon.
You will hear every day remarks ubout
'talking from tho stomach.' This is nil non.
sense. No hound can bo made from tho
btomach. In fact, all bounds must bo mndo
by tho vibration of tho vocal cords."
"Do you over havo any fun at tho oxpenso
of your audience, Mr. Dttiicanr"
"No, bir," was tlio roply. "It is luiosslblo
for n ventriloquist to produco an ellect in

iloor U'lieuth liim and tho space at tho bides
