Battle Between . Bulldog and 4 Borse.
DETROIT, Mich, July EXETER OF
this city recently imported an English
bulldog, warranted never to open its
jaws when once they had closed on an
enemy. Keiter was very proudOf his
purchase and exhibited it frequently
to a select circle of friends. Recently
the dog was given corner in the sta
BILE where Mr.. Keiter also kept a fast
running horse. Yesterday Keiter
locked the two animals in the barn and
went away 90 an excursion. When he
returned he opened the barn door and
was Mortified to find the horse on the
floor nearly dead, while hanging to its
under jaw, from which the flesh had
been torn away, leaving the bone
almost bare, was the bulldog, alive but
badly bruised. Mr.. Keiter called
to work TO relieve the horse
of his terrible antagonist. The
dog was chOked, kicked, pounded,
burned with hot irons and a wedge
driven into his jaws, but all to no pur
pose. Finally an axe was procured
and the dogs head chopped off. Then
it was difficult to loosen the grip. The
horse was gotten to his feet and an ex-
animation made. Hewill probably die
His skin was torn from his body in
many places where the dog had evident
ly tried to fasten his teeth, and he was
SCARED from head to foot. The dog
had evidently had one hold ON the
horses breast for there a large piece of
flesh was torn out. 1t had been a bat
tie royal. Probably the dog, after
breaking his rope, had wandered into
the stall and coming too near his heels
had been kicked. He retaliated with
his teeth and the fight began. There
was hardly whole bone left in the
dogs body and the horse will not be
good for ANYTHING if he lives

AN OPEN LETTER,

PUEBLO, Colo, June -, 1888.
Hon. James F. Mathews. Denver, Colo:
My DEAR SIR-Your notice of a
meeting of the democratic central
committee, to be held July 26th, is at
hand. / was not aware that my name
appeared as a member of said COM
mittee; if so, it had better be dropped,
and hereby tender my resignation.
For you, personally, and very many
others | have unlimited respect, but
for the democratic party L have none.
I have severed my connection with
that organization and transferred my
affections and loyalty to the repubIi-
can party, and from now on will be
found in that column, if / can carry
torch. My faith in the sincerity of
democratic professions and platforms
has entirely exuded, and l bid farewell
to those things l loathe, i. e.. free
trade, demOraliZed silver and Grover
Cleveland, and go to those things I
most love-protective tariff, gold and
silver as money. the expenditure Of our
surplus in the United States treasury
in payment of our national debt and
for great national objects for which
warrant can be found in the constitu-
ton; freedom from Canadian seizure
of American fishermen; home rule in
Ireland, and for any man whom the
Chicago convention may nominate.
am for New England and against
Old England-for America against
Great Britain or any and all foreign
nations-for my country first, last and
always. prefer the Republican club
of America to the Golden club of
England. 1 relish tie products of
American farms under protection, but
dislike the products of English farms
under free trade. l am opposed to
any measure, called by any name, that
places wool, salt, lumber, hemp, flax,
peas, beans, cabbage. potatoes, seeds,
fruits and vegetables on the free list,
while England protects figs, prunes,
tobacco, tea, rasins, coffee. cocoa, cur
rants, plate, beer, wine and spirits.
am opposed to Chinese cheap Ia
Dor, and therefore oppose free trade
that permits the fruits of labor in
China to come in competition with the
fruits of American labor.
am for American labor, American
farm products, American manufac-
lures, american institutions, Ameri-
can fishermen-anything and every
thing America produces that comes IN
competition with the products of for
eign countries. Under a protective
tariff Bismarck says Germany tears
nobody but God,' and such is the feel
ing I would have every American, ma
tive and foreign born entertain of this
United States.
Pardon me for this long letter, but
fearing you might not understand me,
[ deemed it prudent to SO write that
my letter would have no uncertain
sound. Respectfully yours,
G.. q. RICHMOND.

years ago and sent TO San Quentin.
Bart, whose real name is Bodies,
came from Missouri and began his
robberies N 1870, and for thirteen
years be completely mystified the
police.
His system was to watch stage
coaches with powerful field glasses,
and when he found no armed guard
WAS on the stage he wonld mask him
self and hold up the stage without
regard to the number of passengers
on board.
He regularly returned the money
aud valuables to the female passen
gers, and 1t WIS his custom to leave
dogg.rel verses on broken express
boxes, making game of tbs detec
tives.
He was finally caught in San Fran
cisco and sent up for seven years.
The detective learned that Bart, sf
ter his release last January, went to
Sisalia, in Kern county, and regis
tered as Moore. When the stage
WAS robbed near Reading last July
the detective suspected Bart and in
vestigated-
He found all the familiar methods
used by the lone bighwayman, and
since then three other stages have
been robbed in neighboring counties,
al by the same skilled hand Des
of the masked highway
man as well as his daring and skill
with Bart Detectives
have hopes of soon capturing him
but the prospect is dubious as he
has eluded them before for more
than ten years.
