al eHFldOiS one, anu IL Inc mayor snOuiQ
be anyway fastidious about making a Sc
lection the Office would necessarily go va
cant. AS result, usually the first man
who wants the position gets it, and con-
sequently each succeeding year the dog
catcher either gets himself into trouble or
gets citizens into trouble. In either case
he is morally certain to get citizens son
their ear" Our present dog catcher has
been especially successful in the latter
particular. Never before has dog cat
cher continued his work so late in the
year as the present time, and On Monday
he got into trouble by catching number
of CANNES on the east side. He left them
in front of saloon a few mo-
ments while he stepped inside
to quench his thirst. Daring his absence
some one liberated the animals, and the
howl sent up by the disappointed dog
catcher apon discovering that his catch
had gone aroused the natives and attract
ed the attention of a patrolman whose
proves was called into requisition to
produce quietus.
