Poor Settlers Suffering Intensely j for Want of Fuel, i A number of lives have been lost in the tern- ; ble blizzard prevailing in the western part of j Nebraska, and hundrels of cattle and horses j have been frozen to death. In the newly or- | a x f T-???? a. + U A : gamzea county 01 r ei Kius mo ui-am ui ? man and a boy is reported. Tliey were attempting to make their ranch, twenty miles from Ogallala, when the storm I overpowered them. Both were frozen to ; death. Another man, named John Grant, > who had been on railroad construction work J | on the Black Hills extension of the Burling- j i ton and Missouri River road, was found i | dead a mile troiu?camp. Reports from Kansas state that deaths from ! cold and hunger are constantly coming in j from the more thinly populated districts, and that many isolated portions have not yet been heard from. Ij. C. Clark, living near Golden, Grant ! County, left his family at home to go to Hartland, the nearest railroad point, for the purpose of getting coal, his family bein? with one iuei. ne ieio xiaruaiiu at mgub aim the next morning was found six mile? from liome, lying by the side of his horses, frozen .stiff. Clark's wife and three children ; had, in the meantime nearly perished, and had only saved themselves by leaving then house and taking refuge from the blizzard ir a cave. Two deaths are reported from Grecly County, on the Colorado line. A brother and sister named Robert and j Sarah Holzapfel, who lived on a claim inau | unsettled part of Grant County, found thernI 6elvos without fuel Sunday evening. They | tore down a small shed to burn the lumber, ! and that night all but the small amount i which thev had themselves burned was stolen from them. Early in thi morning the ; young man went to the town ot' Horace, j about seven miles distant, and succeeded in ! getting 2(J0 pounds of coal late in the aftor; noon. Being obliged to travel against the j furious wind then dIowing, he did not reach i home until nearly midnight. His limbs were j then numb, and he was so exhausted that it j was with great diffiully that he gained adj mission to the house. Ho found his sister in bed. insensible and almost stiff. She had been without fire all day, and the poorly built J houseafloided her little protection. Although j the young man was almost frozen, he tried to I revive his sister, but without avail. A farmer named Johnson was found dead 1 near his houso iu Creely County, Kansas. . He was out looking ior xuei a'iu ihji isuju. A widow named Mrs. Riley mid her two , little children perished in the storm near j Highton, in Lane County, Kansas, i They were without fuel and the i storm came so suddenly upon them j that they were unable to get it. The woman's eldest son started , out in the storm to get coal. He was over! come by the intense cold, but fortunately i wandered to the house of a neighbor. He ; was unable to speak, and his arms, ears and feet were frozen. His life was saved,although he wdl probably loso his feat. i There are also reports of groat suffering in j Clark County, Kansas, on the Indian Terrij tory line. A family of four were traveling i overland, and, being but ten miles from homo ! and several miles from any other house, dej termined to reach home that night in spite of 1 the terrible storm.

Shooting the Little Animal With a I Bow and Arrow?Kccollecl ions of Hare Hunting in Kentucky. ! In Amcrica, says Maurice Thompson i in the Glob:-.-Democrat, the hare is called i rabbit by nearly everybody; but the fact is we have no crenuine wild rabbits in j our country. Somuch the better for our j sport and our table. The English rabbit j is a very tame quarry beside our swiff; and nimble game,, whose snowy cotton i tail passes before one's vision like a ray ! of white light as it darts across the field 1 in search of covert. The common hare, or gray rabbit, as it j is erroneously known, is the swiftest runner for a short race of all the ild , animals, so far as I have had the oppprtunity to observe. I have seen it out-1 strip a greyhound on a 200-yards race, I but usually its spurt is over in that dis- j tancc, after which it rapidly fails if close | pursued. A certain class ot sportsmen nave given ; up hare shooting as lame and uninterest- j ing, but I find that these are the men who \ u e 10-gauge guns and shoot an ounceand a half of shot at a charge. With ' such a weapon the killing of hares is re- j duccd to the level of killing pigs in a ; slaughter-house. It is all well enough j for meat-getting, but there can be no j sport connected with it. I was walking across a field of winter j : stubble with a sturdy Indiana farmer one \ day. I had my bow with me, and keep-! ing a sharp eye out, soon discovered a hare bestowed under a tuft of dry j burdock. Putting my hand on the : fa-mcr's arm, I made him halt. n\t ll:a n t i omier s a rauun, i sum, pumuuy toward it. He looked with all hiscyes, but could I bcc nothing. 1 showed him the burdock: , he could see that very plainly, but with j all that I could do I could not show him the hare. ' There's no rabbit there," he prescutly asserted, with utmost confidence in his own eyes and thorough contempt j j for mine "Ye can't fool nobody 'bout' [ these parts, young man." | Meantime I had fitted a heavy-headed ! nrrnii' to mv limv I .aimr>d with frrfiiit : carc and let drive. It would have been j as good as seeing .JeTerson in Rip Van ! Winkle could you have observed that; fanner's surprise, nay, his utter astonish-1 ment, when the hare someraulted out of j the burdock tuft and fell over dead, j The man was speechless for a moment, I j and when finally he did get his tongue 1 j there was a whole volume of eloquent j j eulogy and apology in his praise: I "Well, I'll be dog gone!" When I was a child I used to view | hare-hunts in Kentucky. The men ' would take tlieir places around an area ; of covert and send negroes and dogs in to drive out the game. From my poiut i of observation on some breezy hill I, could see the whole proceeding from the ! rousing of the hares to the death, j Among fhose stalwart 6porlsmcn therule j was that if you used a shot-gun yotic j j charge was not to exceed sixteen pellets ! I of IsTo. 3 shot; but the rifle carrying aj j ball of loO to the pound was the common i j weapon. It was a picturesque scene, as ' i I recall it. the white men most on horse i back, the negroes on foot, all hallooing j j back and forth, the dogs mouthing j musically, now and again the keen, i j whip-like crack of a rifle, masters, j j servants and boasts all excited, and the I startled hares scudding for the limestone cliffs whose clefts were their stronghold. I pee this picture through a rift in the war; it is a part of the old, old 1 South. There is no more savory viand than a ! saddle of young hare properly broiled j and served with toast ana butter, and | washed down with?well, coffee; coffee | is very good indeed. Hares are so numerous in most of the ! Eastern United States that they may be | found, as a rule, wherever there is a suit- j ' able covert; and even where nothing! ; better than wheat stubble or a grassy j J hedge-row may offer them shelter by day ! i they arc not scarce. | The amateur sportsman, though a : bearer of a breech loader No. 10, will I find this game none too easy to kill, ' and he who uses a rillc must be swift i and sure or his bag will be very light. I ! | finu tiie l>esi sport 111 8iiHKUig my jr.imu i with a light sixteen g.iugc shotgun i ! loaded with three drams of powder and j ; a half ounce of No. 7 shot. Of course j j the game is shot oa the run. This, to be j | sure, is not considering the bow and ar- j row, which in the ha?4( of an expert I arc incomparable for hare shooting. Al- i though the hare appears to sleep with its [ eyes open, it depends more upon its ears) than upon its organ of vision, and you | must be light of foot if you would hope j j to take it unawares. When startled it! j springs from its form and rushes away i j with incrcdible rapidity. If you are not j I an old hand at the sport you will l?c j I startled by tne suauenness 01 tne appun- ; [ tion, and your game will be gone before j i you have pulled yourself together and got ready to shoot. I saw a market hunter in Kentucky j station himself in front of a cliff that! was full of little caverns into which the ! hares of the ad a ent fields always ran! when put up. lie had closed all these openings with fragments of stone and J had sent his comrade into the fields to ' start the game. Without moving a rod from his station he shot four dozen ! hares in about an hour. 1 do not think j he called this sport, exactly, but the Cincinnati and Louisville folk doubtless i enjoyed eating the excellent game he ' sold to theiu at live cents a saddle. The negroes of the t>outh are famous ! hare-hunters; they give "Brer Rabbit''I small rest during the season when his I flesh is good, in Alabama, hist -winter, j I saw* five men and eleven dogs assailing j one wildly careering hare, whose only i hope of safety was a dense sassafras! thicket, which, I am glad to say, it J reached; for, stranirely enough. I always j am on the side of the hare, save when I myself am the hunter. The time is not far distaut when even tlie most la^tiuious sportsmen win ue glad to liave a chance to shoot hares, i Almost every farm in the Middle and ! Western States shows already the shin-! gle tacked to a tree with the inscrip- j tioa: l,No shooting oil those premises." > Ah Astonished Husband.

Only a few years ago the owner of a ^ gold watch was regarded a wealthy iiidi- ' vidual. It is not so now. In fact, near- ' ly everybody carries a gold watch or the j semblance of one nowadays, and owtiers . of silver-cased watches are just a trifle ashamed to expose them to view. The young man with a gold watch consults it frequently and ostentatiously, while the owner of a silver watch slyly takes it 1 from his nocket. holds it well concealed in the palm of his hand, and glancc* at it under the shadow of his coat. A dealer says: "If your watch cost $150 a dozen years ago yoti can buy a better oue for $100 to-day, and if it was a $100 watch then you would have to pay $00 or $G5 for it now.
