AN INrELLIeENr DOG.
How q GridIey Physicians Dog Led
Him 60 u Patient

DIR. Harris Of this city is the owner
OF a dog whose remarkable intelli.
gence is worth recording in the histor-
ical annals Of marvels peculiar TO this
age. " Don" is thoroughbred bird
dog, spaniel and pointer combined,
and always at his masters heels when
the gentleman is at home. About
six weeks ago the doctor was called to
Siskiyou county and did not return
until last Saturday. Don" was
compelled to stay at home and stuck
very close to the house. When par
ties would call and inquire for the
physician the dog would invariably
interrupt the conversation, and, tax
ing hold OF the callers coat or
dress, endeavor to lead them to the
depot, at the same time barking vigor-
ously. lie would also be at the depot
regularly every morning when the
train arrived from the north, appa-
rently looking for his master. The
last week Of the gentleman's absence
" Don was at the depot upon the ar
rival of every train from the north,
hence when the doctor got off the Ore
gon express at an early hour in the
morning he was promptly met by The
dog. Mr.. Harris was not surprised to
see the animal awaiting him, but when
the dumb brute grabbed hold Of his
coat and endeavored to lead him away
from rather than toward home, the
gentleman was at loss what to think
or do. Experience having taught him,
however, that the dog was endowed
with remarkable intelligence, he con-
cluded to let the animal lead him
where he would. Don took his mas
ter straight to house where patient
awaited his coming. Well, you did
get back, was the salutation that greet
ed the physician. "Yes," replied Har-
ris; " but ! shouldn't have come here if
the dog hadn't almost forced me to-"
Harris then ascertained that the gen.
tleman had been to his house the pre-
vious night and left word for him to
call as soon as he arrived home. As
Mr.. Harris had not seen any person
and acted as he did only to please the
dog, the logical conclusion is that Don
heard and understood the conversa-
ton the previous night and did that
which his dog sense dictated. That
the canine had pretty near as much
sense as a great many human beings
is further evidenced by the fact that
he will, at his masters command,
traverse the town in search of little
Joe Harris (aged years. and compel
him to come home.-Gridley Herald.

An Accommodation Train.

Between Tuscaloosa and Akron,
Ala, the train came to sudden halt
in the woods. Then one of the pas
sengers got off and started back over
the track at a leisurely pace, and
pretty soon the train followed him.
Several people were anxious to
know what was going on, and inquir-
les flew thick and fast. The conductor
finally came into the car and Woman
asked:
Conductor is anything up?"
Yes'm."
care we going Backward"
"We are"
"What has happened?'
A boy in the next car has lost his
hat"
"And are we stopping just for the
hat?"
"Yes'm, but don't let your hand
kerchief blow out OF the window. We
are half an hour behind time now and
can't stop again this afternoon.

and character. For thirteen years she
has been consistent member of the

required her TO follow a course of la
borious life generally regarded as un-
suited to her sex, but she has met its
duties bravely, deserving and receiv-
ing the respect of all who know her.
For thirty years she has followed the
plow and engaged in the usual round
ot farm labor. Last year she made
nine bales of cotton, besides provis-
ions, with one plow. She has dug one

She has good home of her own, en-
Joys excellent health, and is sending

strong men who have not equaled her
for honorable record.-Atlanta Consti-

All on Account OF q Mouse.

THE most remarkable group ever
saw" said gentleman, "was in q
young lady's private apartments on +
street, long after midnight. l was a
boarder in the house. / was aroused
from a deep sleep by a piercing cry
coming from the third story. An av-
alanche OF female shrieks came pour
ing down the stairs. With blanket
thrown about me and a fire-shovel in
my hand | made bound for the room
from which the cries came.
At the same moment the lady OF
the house, who had just come in from
a ball and was in full dress, rushed up,
followed by her husband, who was in
full dress also. A lady boarder with
her hair in papers and a sheet over her
shoulders appeared, armed with a
broom; and an old beau, who at all
other times wore a glossy black wig,
bounded into the room like wild In
dian driven from the happy hunting
ground, for the want OF a scalp. He
was clothed in crazy quilt and armed
with feather duster.
I'VE all struck the room at the
same time and stood there in the
broad glare of the light. The cause Of
the disturbance was young lady
partly disrobed, who stood on table
in the middle of the room with one
shoe in he: hand. The only other oc-
cupant in the room was mouse,
which was crouched in one corner
almost frightened to death. Not a
word was spoken. Every one at that
moment seemed to become conscious
of his or her peculiar appearance.
Each looked at the rest for an instant
and they all disappeared. The accl'
dent was never again referred to.-N

SIX MARRIED MEN.
Not One or Them Knew How n

At this juncture the Coroner de-
sired to show the jury the direction
taken by the ball, and for this purpose
produced the corset worn by Mrs.
Burkhart at the time of the tragedy.
You see" said he-and here he drew
the corset around his waist, with the
lace in 'front.'" the ball must have
gone in from behind. No, that can't

DAN MCCARTHY GAME.
He sold n Horse nt the Bidder's
Price and Would Not Back Out.

Last Sunday afternoon at a roadside
house near the park were gathered
some OF the best known horsemen and
gentlemen in the State, slipping their
afternoon "toddy" and "talking
horse" when a white hat was seen
coming around the corner toward the
resort, under which sat the renowned
Dan Mccarthy in light buggy and
driving fine-looking bay stallion at q
rattling gait. Dan, as well as his
brother (who can give him cards and
spades and win, is well known for
boasting, but was never known to
back out OF any trade he ever made.
He is also very much given to joking,
and TO get even on him for a past joke
Senator David Mcclure proposed, as
he said, to hear what he wanted for
the horse, and make him drop in his
price and buy the drinks" As Dan
drove up the Senator, with the full
crowd, approached the stoop, and Dan
was saluted by Mcclure with the
query: Dan, what do ask for that
horse? ?"
Twenty-Five hundred dollars" an
swered Dan, and he went on TO give
his pedigree, when he was cut short
ly loud laugh from the crowd, who
thought the Senator had the joke on
Mccarthy for once.
This riled Dan, and he called out
F." Well, if that's too high for you, what
will you give for him ?"
Zone cipher off," said the Senator
Just 1920"
Put up your money!" said Dan,
and in a joke the ex-senator placed in
Mervyn Donahue's hand $220 in
gold, but insisted on having his horse
at once.
Dan asked to be allowed to send for
horse to take his buggy and harness
home, but Mcclure would not agree.
Mccarthy then notified Mr.. Dona-
hue that he would hold him response
BILE for $220 in case the sale fell
through, and to Mr.. McClure's aston
ishment at once began to strip his
horse. The last thing remaining was
the bride, and pulling that off and
giving the horse kick, he turned him
loose in the sandhills with the re-
mark: When you fellers call me
you've got TO show your hand. Give
me that money, Mr.. Donahue, and
Senator. you can find your horse"
After long hunt Mr.. Mcclure Sc
cured the animal, which is said to be
worth three times the money, but Dan
says he proved that he couldn't be
joshed before a crowd. IS. +. Call.

An Accommoda.,ng Railroad.

Several days ago a stranger made
his appearance at the Union Depot
and asked Officer Button how long be-

his mouth on the back of his hand,
and asked;
Has my train gone yet ?"
No, sir; you have IA minutes to

That's good l guess I'll go back
for little brandy"
When he again returned he felt in
good spirits, and ascertaining that he
still had six minutes to spare, he said
Now that's what | call liberal, and
I'll lay in one more drink"
The last one proved more than he
could bear up under, and he was not
seen again for three hours. Then he
came round with wabble in his gait
and an uncertain look in his eyes, and
asked.
"Shay, what time does that Gran

"In about four hours"
"Fo' hours? Why, that'll give me
