A corresiionde nt writes to the London
Field that while be was hunting rabbits
with ferre ts in January he found rabbits
on thre-e occasions in w illow trees which
overhung the water cf a mill stream.
The miller said that it was not an nn
nsual circumstance. Some months ago
The Field told of other rabbits which
had been shot, like raccoons cr epos
sums, out cf tree s in England. In re
cent years cases cf rabbits in trees have
: bee n re pea-ted with increasing frequency.
j From Australia has come the most rc-
. raarkablo story if rabbits as climbers.
I The only way in which rabbits could be
kept out of certain tracts cf land in
! Australia was by the building cf wire
' fences about them, the fences having
tnebhes so small that the beasts could
not crawl throuph and being so high
that they could not jump over. Tbe rab
bits hae clawed at the wires until their
nails gradually have become hocked.
Se me cf the rabliu learned to scale the
fences, and then great additional ex
pense was necessary, fcr the top of the
'. fence had to be bent ove r like a J up
cide down, with the hook out, eo that
j the rode nts could not ge t over the top.

A man sat in an aisle seat, three rows
from the front, at a performance of "El

hats of the women around and made the
lights flicker. The. audience suspended
attention and looked at the sneezer, and
the players paused just as be snorted
out a third sneeze that ended in a high
note suc h as seldom had been heard in
those parts, though the J tropolitan
Opera House is nearby. El Capitan
stre tched out his long arms toward the
man, relied his big eyes heavenward
and said in sepulchral voice:
"Hejven ble-ss you, sir."
This brought the audience back to the
stage with a roar, and in a second the
performance was running cn at high
pressure, while the fat man chuckled
over the fact that for a brief epace be
had been the star cf the evening. A few
minutes late r a Sun reporter ased Mr.
Hopper bow he was affected by the
funny things that happen in the audi
ence. After petting a grip on El Capi
tan 's nof and throwing down a cup cf
hot coffee, as he does between acts, he
answered:
"American audiences are not demon
strative, and as a rule things don't hap-pe-n
in front Of course the man who
sneezed tonight couldn't help it, but he
made snch a blasting suece-ss cf it that
it affe-ctrd the whole house and there
fore the players. If an actor is playing
a part where he can say se.mething.it
is the l est thin? todo, ffir it makes, them
all laugh txd Lici9 them from noticing
a pniisi'. "
May Irwin is an actress with whom
even me tiepc litan audiences take liber
ties "Pecplc- have a habit cf calling to
me from the audience when they want
me to sing a fjHtial soug or to recite
something,." she said the other evening.
"One night a man in the body cf the
house called out to me to recite 'Hia
watha. ' lie took me off my feet for a
minuta I couldn't remember a line of
it, tut I called back: 'I w ill if you'll
give me my cue. I've forgotten bow it
starts. ' He gave me the first line, and I
shouted it for him.
"When I was playing the Widow
Jones ono night, during the kissing
sce ne between Rice and myself a man
sboute d, 'I'd like to be in your place,
Mr. Rice, I would.' Rice and I were
both convulsed, and the audience roared.
When the piece is funny, it often adds
to the humorous situation for some one
in front to do something unusual.
"I never shall forge t an e xperience I
had while playing the Widow in Cin

an actor to se anything that poes cn in

kept pe-e ring up at me ove r Ikt glasses.
She didn't laugh once, and in all my
life I never saw a human being take a
play so seriously. She was with another
weircan who was c-qually serious. Final-
Ij" the eld woman jumped up and, peer-
ing at me over her glasses and shaking
her finger in my face, said, with a rasp-
ing, western twang:
" 'Well, yoa don't look cne bit like

I heerd she was a widow and that Jones

"With that she flounced out, but the

FOR STARTING THE FIRE.
ne Tee ta Which the f baenaaa rata Bat
Discarded ta.
In the majority of households an old
neTWspaper is tbe material meet com
monly used to start a fire, nei the ad
justment of this material is a matter of
considerable art There should be enough
of it to make a flame suScient to ignite
the wood laid upon it, and it should be
Fnt in with just the right degree cf
nscness so that tbe air will circulate
through it and make it turn free ly and
to the best advantage. But there are
bouses in which paper is uever used fat
this purptwe? the homes ef fishermen.
He re, year in and year out, day after
day, tite fire is started with a chunk c f
discarded tarred netting, and there U
nuthing like it
When a net gets tender, so that it is
likely to burst w hen a body cf ke lp or
f-aweed fiejats against it in a tide way,
or to break with a big catch cf fish, it
is condemned. It may be whole and
look all right, but it doesn't pay to take
any risks with it Some fUhernien using
a considerable number of nets may bave
half a ton of such netting in a year.
They use it to start fires, and give away
some cf it Formerly tbey sold it for
junk, and they do so now occasionally,
tbongh not so much as they did. It
brings a cent a pound.
This netting has been tarred again
and again with fine, thin tar and it is
thoroughly saturated. Tbe net may be
0 feet deep. A length cf it is rolled up,
and the roll is then flattened down. The
flattened roll may be 6 inches wide, and
it is cut off with an ax into chunks of
perhaps a foot in length, just enough to
lie nicely on tbe grate cf a kitchen
range. It is thoroughly dried before it
is used. It all ignites quickly, and
burns fiercely and uniformly, with a
bluish flame and rather a plesisant odor.
A properly laid fire with a section cf
old tarred nc tting to start it never goes
out Wheiever atteuels to the kitchen
fire in the fisherman's house prepares it,
if possiLle, the night before and pulls a
strand from the tarred netting out

To start the fire in the morning all that
is nece ssary is to touch a lighted match
to the end cf that tarred rope yarn.
Some cf this tarred netting has been
sold to start the fire in locomotives.
Such a thing is not unhe-ard of as the
use cf cotton waste and oil for this pur
pose, but a sheet of old tarred netting
laid over the grate bars beats the cotton
waste out cf sight Still, locomotives
have multiplied anel tarred netting cuts
no figure as a means of starting the fire
in them. It is perhaps now used for
that purpose, if at all, only ou roads
running through cr near, fishing dis
tricts. And, as said, it is now rarely
sold. The fisherman uses it to start hi
own fire, and the man who has more
than he wants gives to his neighbor.

instructed to set befeire the couneiisseur
a bottle cf excellent mose lle. It was to
bear no label or other marks to distin

questioned the landlord was to say that
it cost only a small price. The invita

suspicion by exclaiming over the merit
cf the wine. He summoned the laud
lord, and on beating that its trice was
