Fashion in Dogs.

Have you noticed lately that the queer
looking old men who sell dogs on the street
do not offer any puss for sale! 1 had very
interesting chat The other day with the dog
merchant who makes the sidewalk in front of
the Astor house bis headquarters. Fashions
in dogs change ys the same as anything
else" he said, When I asked him what bad
become OF the kinky tailed, fat faced little
brute that was so popular a year ago. "f>ugs
is dummies, you know They amt got sense
enough to come in when it rains, and the
ladies Is jes' beginnin' to find it out. The
Scotch terrier and the fox terrier is the favor.
tie nowadays, except with these big, powerful
girls what goes to fiddn. SCHOOLS and to them
places where they swins;on the trapay
They all want big dcgs-Inastiffs and St.
Demands, and once in a While an Irish setter.
You can't get am to take to the pug any
more. Why, sir, Ave years ago could get
p1y own PRICE for a pig dog and he didn't
have to be a, Thoroughbred, either. Now
they're not worth .one-flfth What they were
then, for terriers IS, all the go in the small
dogs. Black and tans Ne, SIR. You don't
see EN- pow. I remember when 1t was con-
sitered Just the proper thing to breed em
down sofne that their weight was counted in
ounces instead of pounds; but that's all past.
Once in while somebody will want a little
black and tan, but fancy for the most part
run thorough haired terriers and the smoother
haired fox terriers. You can't tell what
changes the fashion, but it changes just the
same. New York Graphic

A Missing Essential,

''Iast summer" says Mr.. Harvey W. Jen-
ney, of the Jenney &c Graham Gun company,
II spent my Saturdays and Sundays at Fox
Jake, and, one time it occaiYsd to me that I'd
like party Of friends with me 10 enjoy the
cool breezes and the splendid fishing of that
admirable resort. / invited, say, dozen
friends, and put in two days getting ready
for the trip; Carried along two boats and a
vast amount of angling paraphernaha, in
Guiding split bamboo rods, silver reels, silk
lines, ETC.; also carried along three big hanp-
ers full Of eatables and drfnisables-vou see,
/ was determined to spare no expense.
Everything went lovely enough until we
got out into the middle Of the lake; the party
was wholly co0genial and the fact that the
bass and pickerel kept frisking out of the
water ali around us made everybody nearly
crazy to fish. As we moved slowly along we
brought out the split bamboo rods, the silver
reels, the silk lines, the nets, and all that sort
of thing, and made ready for piscatorial
slaughter that old Ike Walton might have
envied. Bat just as we got ready for the
charge an awful conviction flashed upon me,
and | sweat and trembled like convicted
felon. There we were, sixty miles from any
where, on the bosom of a lake full of fish,
and I had forgotten 10 bring along any fish
hooks. Eugene Field in Chicago News

A SLIGHT HITCH.

Dockmen May Still Hold Out IT the
LighteTinen Are Not squarly Used.
LONDON, Sept. 16.-At the close Of
business hours it was considered certain
by both the dock companies and the
leaders of the striking Iaborers that the
great contest over the wage question
would be ended, unless some unexpected
hitch should occur in regard to the
lghtermen resuming work. The docl-
ers were greatly aided during their
struggle by the Iightermen refusing to
work even at advanced wages, and now
that the employers of the lightermen
seem inclined to withdraw the conces-
sions which we're made in the hope of
inducing them to continue at work, the
lockers will return a favor by not re-
suming work unless the ightermen ex-
press themselves as satisfied.
The Great Strike Ended.
LONDON, Sept. 16.-The master lighter
men have conceded the points submit
ted to them on behalf Of their employees
and the last obstacle in the way Of gen
eral resumption OF business is removed
and the great strike is ended. The men
returned to work to-day.

OUR MINING EDITORS WEEKLY
REPORT.
The Hope Mill in Operation Affairs
at the COmbinatlOrl-V Vanderbilt
Harvey Creek DistrIct-Other Min
ing Notes.
HOPE.

The Hope mill finally started up again
last Friday. after shutdown of four
months the 9Th of May last. The
people of Philipsburg had the pleasure
again of welcoming that old familiar
whistle. which seemed to invigorate new
life in the camp. The same force of men
that we're formerly employed at the mill
were on hand, and as Supt. Adams had
promised, he again put them all to work
in their former positions.
To say that operations at the Hope do
not make much difference to the busi-
ness in Philipsburg is in error. There
are between fifty and sixty men en-
ployed by the company, which is equal
to about $1,000 paid out monthly, and
unlike the other corporations of note in
this district, most every dollar Of the
money paid to employees is expended
right here; therefore the noticeable
quietude of the past few months m ay
safely be attributed to this cause, and
until the money begins to circulate
again there will not be much change
which will be perhaps another month at
least.
Supt. Adams says everything is now
gliding along very smoothly. A number
of repairs were made in the mill and new
added during the shutdown.
At the mine the ore body now being
operated on is richer than any ever be-
fore exposed, and once more the Hope of
the people is restored.

Scarcely week has passed since govern

there could be 10 monetary pressure this

about possible exports OF gold, foreign

sorbed, Of which none has gone abroad
and scarcely any to the West Or South

The exports Of products are remarks-

and was released. On Saturday another

give favorable reports from some pros
poets at the head of Harvey, which is
mostly free milling gold ore and assays

at present known in the district IS that
being operated on by the Alps mining
company, who have splendid showing
and will most likely develop a rich mine.
On Willow creek the Butcher Bros. have
some good prospects. From one now
being operated on they have taken out
some fine specimens of native silver.
Many other claims are being prospected,
with more or less satisfaction.
