\ WORD ABOUT DOGS.

oreat many people, who rest their oo.ol'ss;ons on the very natural basis oi [ ,nbat thev see. think that dogs are worth, worth la.s o,.e,afnres Seeing only the mongrei 5 a5 roan0ev curs that hunt garDage thro,yb @ inc streets of Hartford, they fea- son that all dogs are like these.
 r. ;a T,ortIv for persons of such oplnlons tlat tb!s hancb show is worth having. 1ne Tnan who ooes there learns what a oog IS ona loorns too that there are plenty ol reaI dnos Several interesting ana imPof- tant facts are involved m me e.nl1AI.on as,ni Tn the first place it must De ho'lceu ., s;.as notwithstanding the very large g"tneh .hs of doos at the rink the numDeh m,

They are nearly all ol Iuem 1t owned hereabouts, and he asks himsen how it is that they have escapeo nAs flee.

 The demonstration Is complete OoOA"1o the number in the street has not leSSeneu' and the dogs at the rink are new an9 sooe1r %G ditional. From this it follows peElecIiJ clearly, as we said before, that the stioo' o dogs might all be killed off without 1nI"h- ing the race of dogs or the dog fanclers. Some people take the ground that to urge killing the street CUTS is showing enmliy to dogs in general. This isn't so at all. There are dogs and dogs. Soon or late we shall have hydrophobia scare and mad dogs running about. The trouble will come in the first place from some stray dog in the streets: It may get a chance to bite valuable dogs, running into private premises and attacking them in their kennels, before it is killed and it may also bite people. Everybody is in- terested in suppressing the dog nuisance.
 But the dog show is another matter. It encourages the cultivation of good dogs, and it shows the general public that there are plenty of valuable dogs, and 1t doesn't appeal to the eye alone. The ear is touched by their barks and growls and howls, and the nose, too, recognizes their presence. If now that the good dogs are all taken out of the rink, the poor ones could all be put in there, people would be reconciled to having them stay there ln- definitely COUrGrat

| Hospitals and orphan asylums appeal more directly to the philanthropic spirit than any other organizations of practical charity. MT.

THE REsULTs!

Meats are cooked in their own juices, mak- ing them tender and healthful, while the sav- ing in weight is oyer 30 per. cent. Bread is made light and porous, and the loaves are fully 25 per cent. larger than those baked in 8 close oven. There is also saving in fuel of 25 per cent. The total saving in meat, bread and fuel is sufficient to repay the cost of the range in six months, while it's benef- cial effect on the health of the family cannot be computed in dollars and cents.

Andover was set off as town in 1848, and Judge Curly Phelps was elected as it's first representative i'll 1849 Judge Phelps is native of Hebron and represented that town in the legislature of 1843. He after wards moved to the place where he now resides, then part of Coventry, and was sent as a member from Coventry in 1847. He has therefore had the honor of repre- senting three towns in the legislature and is the oldest living representative from both Andover and Hebron. There is no living senator left, and only two have ever been elected from the town. These were Daniel P. Sprague, 1859, and William Dorrance, 1867.
 -Monson Mirror: According to cor respondent, Stafford has 8 pretty sharp horse trader. He recently sold horse to South Monson farmer for $15, and 15 minutes afterwards, before the money was paid over, sold to another for $25, coolly pocketing the $10 difference in spite of the protestations of customer No. that the money belonged to him.
 The Nofwalk Hour, in review of the members of the state senate, speaks of Senator J. Dwight Chaffee as follows Senator Chaffee of the Twenty-fourth district, chairman of the committee on la- Dor, found his position no sinecure. To select from the mass of bills presented those that were well supported by testi- mony, to omit objectionable claims and insert desirable amendments, and then to find the work of a committee session en- dangered by the rant at hotels and board ing houses to an extent that destroyed harmony in the committee and resulted in ill-considered decisions and opposing re- ports, was far from agreeable to Senator Chaffee, but he did the best he could un- der the circumstances, and if we have fail. ed to secure good legislation, it is to his credit that nothing radically bad gained the approval of the senate"

fired over each of the four graves con-
tanning the dead soldiers. The Sons

the old ce metery on the school section,
where lie the remains of another old

DECORATION DAY.
Its Most Successful Observance
in Mitchell.
A Programme of Rare Interest
Beautifully Carried Out.
Sunday Evening.


The observance of Decoration Day
in Mitchell began on Sunday evening,
with services at the Rink. The large
hall was packed at an early hour, and
large numbers were obliged to turn
away at the door for lack of even stand
ing room inside. The interior of the
Rink was appropriately decorated, q
memorial shaft occupying the center of
the stage, and the national colors were
hung on every hand. Comrade Win
slow Abbey of Ransom Post was mas
ter of ceremonies, and on the stage sat
the city clergymen and the Glee Club,
made upof the double qaartette, Messrs.
Lott, Daniels, Huggins and Ahern,
tenors, and Messrs. Kratz Brothers,
Winsor and Silsby, bassos.
The exercises were opened with a
song followed by the reading of the
scriptures, by Rev. A. A. Brown of the
Congregational church, and prayer by
Rev. S. j. Vinegar of the Baptist. After
another selection by the quartette,
Comrade G. B. Clark, of the Methodist
church, delivered the Memorial Sermon.
This address was listened to with the
closest attention throughout, though
the heat in the densely packed hall
made it decidedly uncomfortable for
the audience.
The services closed with the singing
of national anthem, the audience
joining in the chorus.
The Grand Army veterans and Sons
of Veterans marched to the Rink in a
body, under escort of the Light Guards

flowing, the large number of children
present filling the better part of the
seats. AS the veterans marched into
the hall, ladies at the door presented
each with button-hole boquet.

Notes of the Occasion.

NOTES OF Cne UccaSlOne
Captain Singiser made a graceful and
dignified presiding officer.
It was the largest procession that
Mitchell's streets have ever held.
The floral offerings. for which great
credit is due the ladies generally, were
handsome in design and rich in va
riety.
Rev. Mr.. Browns extempore remarks
were admirably chosen, and supple
mented Judge Edgerton's address
most fittingly.
The small number in the Light
Guards turnout was due to the fact
that many of the members were in the
several fire companies.
The manly young Sons of Veterans
made fine showing. In a few years
the duty of observing the day will fall
wholly on their shoulders.
Mitchelrs fire department made an
excellent display. The boys took a
practice run through Main street on
returning to the engine house.
Mrs. Kelly of Minneapolis sent a
beautiful offering of flowers to be
placed on the grave of her brother, d.
McC Claiche, who is buried at Mt Yer
non.
There were numberless complimets
for the singing on both Sunday even
ing and Monday afternoon. The selec-
tions were strikingly appropriate, and
the voices blended admirably in thei1
rendition.
We the committee of arrangements on
behalf of the G. A. r. would most re-
spectfully return our heartfelt thanks
to the citizens of Mitchell in so nobly
responding in all respects in assisting
US in perpetuating the memories of oul
country's noble dead.

A Terrible Revenge on Mosquitoes.

A Portland, Orc, reporter, who was out in
the woods few days since, and was badly
bitten by mosquitoes, Is now having his re-
venge. He caught about l,o0O,OO0 of the
Larvae Of the musquto and put them in glass
Jar partly filled with water, with a piece of
musquito bar over the top. He has put the
jar III the window of the reporters room, and
spends the greater part of his time with heels
on the window sill smoking three for 81 cigars
and watching the musquitOes hatch out and
fly around their prison until they become eI-
hausted and drop into the water. The mad
dened insects, thirsting for human gore, rave
around and fill the jar with hollow murmurs,
which sound much more musical than when
the bloodthirsty wretches are at large. When
demonstrated with for his cruelty the tor
turer replies that he is trying to make the
punishment of these mosquitoes fit the crime
of their relatives. The other occupants OF
the room. live in mortal terror of the cover
coming off the jar.-Chicago Herald
