One More Convicted.

Word was received from Paris, 111 last Tuesday to the effect that Bruce, one of the burglars captured here, had been convicted on Saturday evening in spite of the exoneration made by the fellow who confessed to having done the whole thing himself. The third man was acquitted but has not yet been released.

His License Revoked.

Hard luck or rather justice seems to follow Joe Parrish, the Indianapolis saloon keeper who was for a long time in jail here on the charge of having assaulted a young girl at the liobbins house. On Tuesday at Indianapolis his licenses was revoked by the courts because he had been convicted of violating the liquor laws on several accasions.

To the Editor of The Journal. 1 received a postal card from Linden which reads as follows:

If the lad was not prompted, for other reasons, by others to write this card it indicates he is a great lover of truth. The only excuse that the lad's answer should not be used is that it is at variance with the rules of business.

Foss Fletcher, of the Grove, who went to the Arkansas Hot Springs for his health, has been heard from." He writes that he likes the place and believes that the springs are benefitting him. He will return March 1st to attend to same necessary business, and then go back for a longer stay.

Mr. and Mrs Hallem entertained a large crowd of the young people of their neighborhood Saturday evening. Among those present from the Grove was George Murdock, chaperoned by his 6ister, Katie George very conspicuously displayed his best girl's picture on the left lapel of his coat. George is right in it.

There are strong rumors afloat that if a certain so-called man over in Stringtown does not very soon go to work and provide the necessaries of life for his poor, abused wife, the men from those surroundings will take the law into their own hands and oilmj jo. ter a dose of hickory switch to the lazy brute and see what effect this will have toward putting a move on him,

Soldiers Raising Belgian Hares. To the Editor of The Journal. The following letter is from a soldier who fought in Cuba and re-enlisted here and has served in the Philippines. It was suggested to me by members of our Belgian hare club to write to some disinterested person in California about the hare running wild or doing damage, and so settle for once and all this question so presistently raised by the enemies of the hare. The fact that he did not understand what I wanted to know as to being let loose, and that the soldier boys are raising them at a profit, is the very strongest evidence that the hare is all right every way. Our club meets March th at 10:30 a. m. Come and join us. DR. TILNEY.

"FOHT ROSEORANS, Calif., Feb. 19. 1901—Dear Friend Dr. Tilney—I received your letter yesterday, the 18th. I was on duty at the time or I would have answered it sooner. Was glad to hear from you. Doctor, I have improved a good deal since I arrived in the states, but am not well by a good deal yet. The disentary and rheumatism still hang to me. When I eat or drink much water my bowels swell up and cause me much pain. Three months from the time we are discharged from the hospital, if we are in fair condition, we are sent back to the Philippines again. There have been some of the boys sent this month. The government transport leaves San Francisco every loth, and 1st of the month. If 1 have to go back before I get thoroughly well it will be the same as suicide. I have thirteen months and a half yet to serve. Well, Doctor, you were talking about the Belgian hares. We have two here, that is old ones, and five young ones. I do not thoroughly understand what you mean, if you want some of them or not. These we have we bought from the boys we relieved when we first came here. We paid $5.00 for the pair, but what young ones we sell the money is used for the mess. You spoke of turning them loose. We have a live foot fence, which is tight, and about twelve feet square of ground that this incloses. About a week before the doe has her litter we separate her from the buck, or the buck will kill the young ones. After they are ten days or two weeks old the danger is over. Those rabbits eat mostly ground food, such as oats, and cornmeal, with a little water in it. At times clover. green cabbage, and bread. Then again, we have a little picket in the corner with a box in it visited containing straw or horse hair for them to sleep in and to shelter them from storm. As to them damaging trees I don't know, but I think it is only a rumor. I have not heard of it before, but all rabbits will do that, ••Well,•Doctor, it rained here for one solid week. The mountains are covered with snow, but oil at a distance.

of the independent telephone companies. The Berliner patents covered the fundamental principles of the telephone and it was upon their expiration that the independent companies were able to start. The Bell company protested that the patents had not expired, and made a great fight to win out. Had the Bell won the independent companies would have been wiped out.

This week has been very nice and dry. That was the heaviest rain that has fallen here for several years. The weather in the day time i» very nice, but of nights is cool, a very pleasant climate. "Well, Doctor, if there is anything more that you would like to knew, I will let you know while I am here. That is all I know at present, about the hares. I will close lor this time.

To them wa9 born one child which has preceded the mother tn the better land. She leaves three brothers and three sisters, a loving husband and a host of friends to mourn her loss. She joined the United Brethren church at the early age of eleven years, always living a Christian life and attending church until her illness prevented, but never forgot to love and obey her Master. She has always been a kind and loving wife, sister and neighbor, loved by all who knew her. Her loss will be deeply felt, but our loss is her gain.

Ann Eliza Rice was born in Fayette county, Kentucky, February 10, 1830, died .February 2'.i, 1901, aged 71 years and 13 days. She was united in marriage to William R. Poynts February 6, 1851. Born to them five children, two daughters dying in infancy, and one son dying shortly after reaching his majority. Two sons survive her,

James L. and William. She also leaves home at a late hour.

one sister, Margaret M. Foust and two brothers, William and Martin Rice. She united with the Christian church at the age of 14 years and has been always an ardent and faithful Christian although her illness which dates from the first of last July was attended with many months of suffering, yet she never forgot to love and obey those teachings emulated in a noble Christian life. Her life is the picture of true Christianity, having interwoven in It those exalted virtues of a kind good wife, mother, sister and neighbor, loved by all who knew her. No higher tribute can be paid to the memory of the dead than the full recognition of those noble qualities which were characteristic of this most beautiful and well spent life. Her highest aim in life was to live the life of a true and devoted Christian, cultivating in her heart and memory the kindliest feelings toward one and all. As the spirit of such a life ascends heavenward we feel within our hearts the touch of deepest sadness for her loss.

A precious one from us has gone, A voice we loved is stilled, A place is vacant in our home

Which never can be tilled.

The soul is safe in heaven. A DAUGHTHK.
