WeII-Trained Dogs.


General John Bidwell related to US the
following as showing how well trained the
shepherd dog becomes. He and friend
were riding in Salinas Valley in 1874, when
they came to band of thousand or more
sheep guarded by ten or twelve shepherd
dogs. There were from twenty-five to thirty
coyotes along the edge of the hills and
WITHIN short distance of the sheep, but
between tie two were the well trained
and vigilant dogs. Two or three times
while we were In sight. one or more OF the
coyotes made dash for the sheep but each
time they were driven back by the guardians
OF the flock. We rode on and put up ct the
Gomez ranch, which was owned by a
wealthy native Californian. About sun
down the sheep. driven by the dogs, came up
to the house and the flock entered corral.
Two Of the dogs laid down at the entrance
and waited there till the owner came and
put up the bars. Then the master patted
his different dogs and fed them well. He
told US that the dogs drove these sheep out
on the plains two or three miles in the MORN
ing, remained with them during the day.
kept the coyotes and other animals at bay
and each evening drove them up to the
house and into the corral"

Catching Small SteeIheads at Point
Reyes.
There is at present small run OF grilss
in Point Reyes Creek.
Last Sunday a jolly lot of anglers tried
their luck at the Point, and although the
majority OF the boys went home with empty
baskets there were a few among the gath
ering who enjoyed good afternoons sport
Explorer Terry captured two-pounder,
besides half a dozen small fish Of ten or
twelve inches In length.
Ward. the angler with the powerful arm,
lost three good fish by rough handling
When reprimanded by Professor Bunker
for the crude way In which he ''yanked''
the gamy silvered-sides he grew eloquent
and quoted Dolliver, the man with the iron
hand
"Yes, but you must not use such a pre-
ponderance Of muscle when handling fires b
run steehead. my dear sir" remarked the
professor, as he pointed to the hook to
which was attached q piece of the fsh's
jaw. Handle these fish gently, use good
Judgment and you will always prove sue
cessful."
Bill Cooney hooked something, but what
the something was he could not say, as it
remained under water until lost. Al Smith
thought that 10 was a fish Of the kind he
used to catch in Dry Creek.
Louie Rondeau tried some new kind Of
palL nv ulScOseTeu IN u ponu In the vicinity
OF Golden Gate Park, and, to his surprise,
1t worked like q charm. His bag. or basket
better said, consisted OF half dozen succu-
lent turtles. which Louis cunningly said
nothing OF 10 his brother anglers. He will
try for another turtle mess to-day.
At this time last season several "lIook-
bills" had been taken from the stream, but
owing to some unaccountable reason, "the
rollers have not yet m ade their appearance.
PROBABLY some OF the anglers who will
spoon to-day may deyelope a surprise by
landing an Olema Creek visitor.

st. Nicholas.


In the wilder parts of South America
you can bag deer or wild hog almost any
day, II you set wisely about it; but months
may pass without even the sight of a tupir
though you may be in their haunts con-
stantly.
You see plenty Of unmistskable three
toed tracks. and new and again Won NAV
hear tapirs moving in the forsst-not leap
Ing through openings between the vines
and branches as a deer does, nor pushing
the brush aside like a jaguar, but crushing
their way by sheer strength, with q great
cracking OF twigs.
1t Is almost useless to follow tracks or
sound; clumsy as the animals appear, they
can race through the underbrush faster tina
dog can follow, and they arc so keen of
sight and scent. and so prone to conceal
ment. that even the most experienced
hunter rarely catches sight Of one In the
daytime. unless by accident. The best % an
is to lie in wait for them, as the 1.-The and
crafty taguar does by their drinking and
wallowing places, and this must be done at

with the sward on which the races are held
the sport to-day should be first-class.
Recently the races have been longer than

must now take a back seat and ciys the

carry staying qualities as well as speed.

HOW TO GET ON.

Andrew Carnegie has made a big
fortune, and is now amusing himself
writing essays telling beginners
how to get on in the world-that is,
how to make fortunes for themselves.
No one doubts Andy's ability to give
the rising generations some valuable
pointers on that all important subject.
thing that thousand other successful
tariff barons could, beyond doubt, do
equally as well.
He regards poverty good start.
Very well; most OF US are well enough
equipped in that particular, thanks to
the system of class legislation which
Mr.. Carnegie fayors, and which was
perhaps phiianthropically designed to
insure that good and even start" to
the greatest number.
sect a good common school edu-
cation as early as possible and avoid
university training, so as to go into
business early in life. Real education
begins when one quits school," Good
enough.
Greek and Latin are a waste of
time and so much foolishness." Very
true, for a grocery merchant or an iron
manufacturer. The ability to tupto
skillfully in Greek or read Tacitus in
the original Latin will not help man
much in managing an iron trust.
Concentrate your energies on one
thing. Put all your eggs in one basket.
Don't scatter" That Is sound doctrine.
The world is full of Observation-Disclosures
who never succeed at any particular
thing. A man can usually get pretty
fair general knowledge while devoting
his energies to some one thing whence
his living comes and whatever he may
acquire overland above living.
Never enter q bar-room."

ately, If you can. at home, unless your
wife objects 10 the little brown jug.
In that event, it would be well to swear
off.
Don't smoke"
Well, that is not so very important
if tobacco does not in.ure your nerves.
If il does. take Andy's advice, and
don't smoke. Chewing is worse, and
OF course You'll quit that. TOO.

IT has been admitted for months past
by the mugwump organs that Fill
would have the New York delegation.
They conceded him seventy votes out
of it, before a date was fixed for the
state convention. They had never ex-
pressed even hope of different re-
suit. The objection to an early con-
vention is not that it will affect the
result in New York, but that it will
announce the result in New York be-
fore other state conventions are held.
What they proposed was to keep up
the pretense of a Cleveland sentiment
in New York, and through false i'm
preston to influence action in other
states.
The mugwump row in new York Is
due to the impending exposure of the
fact that Mr.. Cleveland is not presi-
Dental possibility-only that aud moth
ing more.

THAT FORT WORTH CONFERENCE

THAT FORT WORTH CONFERENCE.
The desire of the News to discover
opposition to the state administration
may have exaggerated a chance CONVEX
sation among gentlemen meeting in
Fort Worth Friday without political
design into the formality of ''a confer
ence1 such as has come into vogue of
of late for the decision of state issues.
1t is not uncommon for Governor Gibbs
or for Farmer Shaw to leave the murky
atmosphere of Dallas to enjoy for
brief period the sweet and balmy
breezes of Fort Worth, nor is there
special significance, that we can see, in
the fact that two gentlemen who are
known, like Sam1 Of Posen, to be ''der
innercentest men on der road" should
chance to be in Fort Worth on the
same day, or that they should have
shaken hands and snapped navy to-
bacco while they were here. The only
eliminating circumstance that crops
out in the evidence is that they both
live in Dallas, and there is, undoubt-
eddy, good cause to suspect any Dallas
man of wicked intentions with respect
to something, no matter where he
keeps his hands at the precise moment
of observation.
It is, we say, altogether likely that
conference No. 3 was no conference at
all, but such an assemblage as may be
found on the streets of any town or
city in Texas almost any day in the
year. At least we hope such was the
case.
In all candor, there has been quite
enough of this star chamber business
in Texas politics, and so far as THE
GAZETTE is concerned, it may be put
down as no part or parcel of such pro-
ceeding, without regard to where it
occurs. While upon the subject, it
may be just as well to say that THE
GAZETTE is not in the business of
making, unmaking or remaking gov
ernors. When issues are defined it
will have something to say upon them,
but as regards the personality OF the
campaign, it is quite willing to leave
that to those who have a penchant for
pinning newspaper tails to individual
kites Despite all rumors to the con-
trary, THE GAZETTE is not an organ
of anybody except the public, whom it
serves.

Benefits of the Commissions
Editor Gazette:
DALLAS, TEx.

DALLAS, lex.
Editor Gazette:
In to-day's GAZETTE appears an Austin
letter giving long list of reductions on
freights, by the commission, intimating the
commission will soon startle the natives"
by report of the wonders it has per-
formed. Please allow me to say: l. In view
of Judge Reaganis statement, that the COM
mission found near all the roads bankrupt,
and in view of the statement Of the roads,
to which they have offered to make oath,
and to which they have offered their books
opened as proof, what else can any reason
able man call such great reductions than
confscation and wrecking of propertys 2.
In view of this how can any reasonable man
be continuously presenting Gods provi-
dence, in giving unusually large crops,
producing more than usual railroad busi-
ness, as an apology for the commission g.
The claimed reduction of expenses of run
ming the roads, in view of its being done by
cutting down necessary expenses, instead
of being q credit to the commission lis
penny wise and pound foolish''-forced on
the roads by such reductions. The en-
ployes so feel this that, for self protection,
they are organizing against the politicians.
They now publish the Railway Employe at
Fort Worth-a very able paper, started
with subscription list of several thousand
and which every man should read-which
is an eye-opener as to the havoc the COM
mission is working. f. WIN the commits
sion, or any of its wordy defenders, face
the music by giving the facts, as to the peo=.
pie getting the benefits of the commissionfs
1t has been provek, that as a rule. the manu-
facturers pocket the results. .. AS to
building up Texas manufactures, pray tell
US how the manufactures of other states
were built up without railroad commis=-
sions? w. A. JARREL.
