Muncie, Ind., April 6.-Zob Har ris, author of the "Houn' Dawg" song, which has set the country by the ears, came into Muncie from the country eight miles north of hero, yesterday, driving a mule to a 'buck board, ia responso to a telephone message from the Now York Ameri can correspondent to ro?ate the cir cumstances of the authorship of tho famous "poem." "There's a lot of fuss made about something that don't 'mount to any thing," said Harris. "I wrote the poem all right when I was fourteen-fifteen years ago but when tho 'Churchman and Pas tor's Cuido' rejected lt for publica tion it took all the poetic ambition out of me. I wrote it just to protect my hound when 1 was a schoolboy of fourteen. 1 don't like to hear these stories saying that, tho hound did not amount to anything, either. He was Hie best rabbit hound 1 ever saw. 1 see where they're saying he was even scared of a rabbit. That's not so. That hound wasn't scared of anything that 'walked on two legs or four. Ho'd chase a chicken thief as quick as he would a rabbit. Schoolboys Kicked thc Dog. "The reason I wrote that piece was that the boys in Royerton, where ? was going to school, picked on me and my dog all the time because we were from the country. Of course Royerton was really country itself, only about two hundred people being there, but tho town boys thought they were smart. So every Hine I came to town they started to fuss with nie, mado remarks about the hound and kicked him around. **l got tired of lt. I tried to whip a few of the boys, but they wouldn't stay whipped, and Anally I know I either had to do something or quit school. "So one night I brought out my slate from school, and when all the folk had gone to bed I slipped Into the kitchen and lighted a coal lamp and the barn lantern to be sure I had plenty of light, and started to write. "I'd asked my teacher, Dort Need ham, If it would 'be all right for me to recite a poem on visitors' day at the school Instead of reading an es say, and he said lt would be if I thought myself competent. "I was mad all through, too, when 1 wrote tho verses. "That hound was the best, friend I ever had outside of my homo folks, and every time he carno home all battered and bruised up from the kicks of the town boys. I swore Pd do something to get even. Ten' I .er Made Up Tune. "Wheri . recited the poem in the school J ?ever saw anything like such ca?-, n' on; tho boys knew they had mistreated my bound, but they were pretty good boys after all. for they cheered mo and tho hon ntl and even cheered tho school house after 1 gol through, and then they made me get up and say lt all over again. "Finally, Mr. Needham, the teacher, said he thought he could sing the thing, and he made up a tune, and after the scholars had heard lt all rtf them fell imo tho chorus and screamed "'You gotta quit kick in' my dawg a rou n'.' " t A ??out. Time to Move. The small town boy had been sent to a farmer uncle's to remain for two or three months, but at the end of the second week he showed up at home, much to tho disapproval of Iiis father. "Why, Willie, what have you come back here for?" tho parent Inquired in no pleasant tone. "I sent you to your uncle's for a long stay." "I know you did," Willie replied; "but, you see, it was this way: The first week they killed a sheep and we et that; tho next week they kin? hog, and we et that; and yesterday the hired man died, and 1 thought it was about time to coi.ie home."

Habits and Haunt?-How Ile Slays Homily Battle Snake. (John Kershaw, Jr., In Charleston Sunday News.) . Do you know anything of the re cord of the California road runner? "Is ho a horse?" I31ess your soul, no; ho ls Just a bird. Dut among all the birds there ls none moro useful to mon than ls tho "Geococeyx Callforntanus, alias road runner, alias war bird, alias medicino bird. It's a long jaunt a Carolinian will have to take to make a first-hand acquaintance of this marvellous bird. His homo ls in Southern California, Arizona, New Mexico, and in Mexico, and always in tho desert, or at least that is his preference of homes. Even there he is becoming rare, and this djgspito tho fact, that lu most of the states In which ho lives ho is (or recently was) protected by law. Of courso a hird that mon find it expedient to protect by law must have some other value than that emanating from sentiment. West erners, by the way, are not noted for any surplus amount of tho above named emotion. If you should go out to tho far Southwest and should hunt up tho road runner, several things would bo necessary If you would meet with success. First, you must know just what to look for. Then, secondly, you must know where to look. And, lastly, you must know just how to look. lb general appearance tho road runner is not unlike tho cuckoo family, in fact ho is sometimes call ed tho ground cuckoo. Ho ls very much larger, ho> over, than either of the cuckoos that we are familiar with In this state. You should keep an eye out for a larg, hird, of slen der build, and of a brownish color, thickly spotted on the back and sides with black marks. Ho is "built for speed," possessing long legs (unlike a crane) and a long neck. When you glimpso such a hird and note, in addition, that, Uko Hie "mocker," it contlnualy flirts its tail, then be sure that you have discovered the road runner. To lind him you are almost com pelled to secure a horse, and mount ing it you must expect to travel some distance across tho gently undulating desert until tho town ls left far be hind. Tho runner does not fancy man's society now. Ho has been run with tho dogs too much. Way back in tho desert, and preferably along ono of tho numerous dry river beds, you may discover him, hut not often near settlements. Instead of craning one's neck look ing up until Hm saw-edged collar bas cut a furrow in your nock, tho searcher must look closely upon tho ground for tho runner. As a matter of fact, it ls an extremely raro thing to find one of those hirds off the ground. When hard pressed by dogs ho will rise on wing and Hy ii short distance With a spasmodic, jerking sort of flight. Even when in possession of tho above facts the road runner is not easy to become acquainted willi. In color ho ls nearly the shade of tho de sert, being a few shades darker, and which fact makes him harder to soo. Hut tho most potent reason why lu; ls hard to study ls because ol' bis shyness and (lootnos of foot. When flushed ho will instantly dash off, literally "Uko a Hash." Hun? Whew! He can outrun anything on two feet, in this country! That is true. The road runner has long since boen conceded the first place for Hei t ness of foot among tho species of hirds Inhabiting North America. Vor this reason they were In danger at ono timo of boin,, exterminated hy sportsmen, who, on swift horses, pursued I hem with greyhounds. Eventually Hie Pacific States were forced to enact laws to save them from thc sportsmen. Hut it was not because of their flee!ness of foot, or their beauty, or for any reason in sentiment that they aro protected. They aro protected because they ful fil ? function among hirds that is unique In many respects, and which is a valuablo function In tho far West. Tho road runner ls a deadly enemy of tho rattlesnake. There ls tho bitterest hatred between tho two in habitants of tho desert, bare and brown.
