TWO CLEVER DOGS.
One a Sod Water Fiend, the Other
Fond OF Dollars.

Two dogs owned by a couple of well
known city gentlemen are rather remark.
able animals. Frank Gillespie's black
poodle is a soda water iend and loafs
about the fountains nearly all the time.
He is not particular about f~lavors, but
seems to prefer the acidererous syrups.
Geo. w. Browns Tony is known all
over town as the %''silver dollar" dog. His
fondness for the big coin is no less than a
mania and he will carry a dollar about in
his mouth for hours. Tony will
pay no attention to other money and can
distinguish a Mexican dollar from the
American piece, always shifting disdain-
fully at the ''greaser" piece. If Tony
comes into possession OF a dollar elsewhere
than at his masters place of business he
at once makes for home with the prize.
He has given several conidIng admirers
of canine sagacity quite a chase.

intended leaving town to-day. but her
trunk has been attached at the instance

the corner of E~ighthteenth and Capitol
avenue. Mrs. Dunn, who is familarly
known as Vinegar Face" has been
very active as a Salvation Army heller
and that she should attempt to delraud
Mrs. jenkins is shocking indeed. The
attachment writ served by Constable
Smith is made returnable to Judge Lees
court next week. Mrs. Dunn claims to
have a husband at Ogden and declares
that the young mar with whom she is
frequently seen here is a half brother.
