The Story Emptied the Room

They were telling dog stories yester-
day in the agricultural department, says
the Atlanta Constitution, and, after
Walker De Wolf had narrated some of
the remarkable instances of his dog S
wonderful intelligence. VIII Henderson
began talking.
"The father of De VOLTS dog" he said
sis nearly the most intelligent animal |
ever saw. Why, he can almost talk. l
used TO give him quarter every morn
ing, and lie took it in his mouth way
into town, and would wait at the butch
er's until they gave him his meat and Is
cents change to bring back. One day
the butcher thought he would play a
joke. and he gave the dog back 10 cents
change instead of 10. Sadly the dog
looked at the two nickels for minute,
then he went out. Five minutes later
he returned leading policeman by the
end of his coat. Now that is dog
worth -"
But the room was empty.

The arrangements for the May festi-
Fal this year exceed i'll elaboration and

annals of the city. The artists engaged
to participate are the most celebrated in
this country and Europe, and such an
aggregation of genius and talent has
seldom been announced for any festival
ever held in the West.
The orchestra of tifty-five performers
will be one Of the greatest features of
the festival. Mr.. Jacobsohu will be
concert master, and this assures mag

of St. Paul's musical culture, upon
which fact Mr.. MacLachlan is to be
heartily congratulated. 49,.

The Telephones Vast Growth.

"Few people appreciate the vastness
of the telephone business" said one of
the head clerks in the central office at
Cortlandt street yesterday. 1--WE are
now transmitting over $4,000 messages
a day, which is about fifty-otd minute
and one second. To do this promptly
and satisfactorily requires a regiment
of trained employees and the finest cleo
trical machinery in the world. The
switchboards in the top floor of our
building have cost over $3.50, 900 already,
and will have to be increased if bust
ness keeps On growing at the present
rate. There has been an immense
amount OF work done also in improving
the wires and the service. in preventing
interferenees and crossed wires, and il
protecting both apparatus and custom
ers from lightning, electric storms and
stray Illuminating currents.
