RESOLVING TO OBEY THE LAW IN CINCINNATI.
Cincinnati, Aug. 3.-The indications now that
tomorrow will be a phenomenally quiet Sunday in
Cincinnati. The SaloOnkecpels' Association has all
along refused to counsel violation Of the owen law
and its members have been outspOken In condemnation
Of other saloonkeepers who held the meeting in Tur-
ner Hall last week and resolved to defy the law.
The latter, at meeting held last night. rescinded
the resolutions adopted at the former meeting. This
action was taken largely at the instance Of the
attorneys employed by them. who frankly advised them
that their former action could not be upheld upon any
ground. and that It's effect upon them had been most
injurious.

A BOY AND DOG BOTH HEROES,
How They Outrode a storm and Brought
Brig Into Port.

At Bourbon, the most neglected port in
the French Indies. says the Philadelphia
Press, a number of vessels rode at anchor.
Suddenly a tidal wave was Signaled and a
cannon shot conveyed the order for all YES
sells to leave the port The crews hastily
regained their vessels and in less than half
an hour all ships but one had left the port
The one which remained despite the order
was a large brig in ballast, on whose deck
not a living soul could be seen. A second
shot was fired and the brig slowly pivoted.
and with tapping sails made for the open
sea. An hour later it was discovered that
the entire crew of the brig had been detain-
ed on shore and the only living creatures on
board were a lad Is years old and the cap
tain s dog.
In order to obey the order twice given
the lad must have let the anchor chain slip
and cut the hawser, but where could he get
the strength to hold the helm against a
cyclone? Three days passed and all the
vessels had returned to port but the brig.
and fears gained ground. Suddenly on the
morning of the fourth day a naked mast
was seen against the horizon. Like a stick
at first, it grew longer, and then hull APP
peared. All the sails were furled and the
brig-for it was the brig-was sailing
under the mast and cOrdage only. kept on
her course by her little jib hoisted one-third
high. A quarter of an hour later a tug
was at its side. The brig was brought
back after more than three days terrible
strife with the elements.
After seeing no one come the boy, know
ing that to stay was destruction. had let
the anchor slip. sawed the haw ser, and
grasping her helm, set her head for the sea.
Slipping rope with running knot lar
board and starboard, to prevent sudden
lurches. he remained at his post with the
dog. sleeping and waking, nearly 100
hours.
The colonists raised a subscription for
him, and he was sent to the marine school,
whence he came out an officer.
