bit of meat cast on the lake in one
of the parks of Allegheny City recently
gave forcible illustration of the re-
nowned pugilistic qualities of the genus
Anser. The scrap was tossed to an
old gray gander, sailing and dipping ma
jestically back and forth, with his harem
at safe and respectful distance behind
him. just as he made graceful dive
forward n stray dog, of hungry aspect
and ventureSome turn OF mind, made for
the meat also. The gander paused,
astonishment written in every line or
Iti., craaad neck and extended wings.
The dog friskily brought up at the
waters edge and reached out paw.
The coveted morscl was midway be-
tween him and the gandrr. Quick as
thought the gander slapped the water
with his wings. beating the scrap be-
low the surface and diving after II.
Somehow he miscalculated, and when
he came up the mOrsel was dancing
few feet away. The dog, says the
Pittsburgh Times, was softly dumping
the water with his paw. At every wave
the scrap came nearer To him The
harem drew closer around its lord, and
the oldest N the HOOK gave Il icN "oItiS
OF advice To him. She received sound
slap with wing, apparently command
to mind her own business. Just as the
dog reached out for the meat the gan
der gave a lunge also. Bill and paw
both missed it. 1t disappeared, only u
rise tantalizingly a few feet away.
The dog was no longer hilarious.
This was too serious business, and he
ran up and down the shore, bark angri-
", while the gander retired 10 wreak
vengeance on his hapless harem. A
moment later, seeing the scrap almost
ashore on the waves of the conflict, he
made sudden dash. So did the dog.
They met, and for a few seconds gray
wings, dog hair and wild screams
OF purp and gander filed the air. Then
the dog trotted slowly away with
face full of religious fervor turned
toward the theological seminary, while
the gander, wiping the sweat OF vic
tory from his brow, carried the scrap,
for which he seemed To have lost his
annette to his proud family.

funny incident occurred while
some blasting operations were in
progress lately at Hull, Que. An un-
usually heavy charge was about to be
fired, and every body had been warned
away. A little dog immediately logged
over TO the edge OF the pit where the
explosion was about to take place.
The canine stood wagging his tail, the
onloolSers at 4 distance, of course.
thinking it was indulging in a final
bark With loud report the rock be-
low was rent asunder, the men ran
over and To their astonishmcnt found
the little dog uninjured and barking
with all its might at the noise in the
middle of a clOud of smoke.

Norway and Sweden discovered a MGR

hook and line baited with a slice of
bacon, which the merman seized. Being
caught, he threatened vengence so loud
~ that he was thrown back into the sea.

THE effort of the minority in the Democratic convention at Tucson and of the Phenix Gazette since then to place Mr. J. B. Patterson, of Apache county, Gin a hole" with his constituents has fEnked entire ly. A letter from Hon. J. I. Le- sueur to one ot the Graham county delegates says; "Mr. Patterson did just right in voting as he had agreed to. The Democrats of this county are satisfied with his actions and have the fullest confidence in him. No matter how great the tempta- tion it would have been impossible for Mir. P. to violate his agreement I am satisfied with the result of the convention and we'll pleased to knaw that our representative stayed with his promises. ."-Solomonville Bulletin.
 THE HERALD has heretofore re- trained from taking any part in the discussion of this matter, out of consideration for the feelings of Mir. Lesueur, who is an exceedingly modest and retiring gentleman, and had no more idea than the man in the moon that his name would be mentioned in the convention. His friends in Apache county, without his knowledge or consent, requested MT. Patterson to use all honorable means to have him selected as one of the delegates to represent Ari- zona at the Democratic National Convention now l2 session at Chi cago. As to Mir. Patterson's action in the Tucson convention, the De- mocracy of this county fully un- derstand all its ins and outs, and understanding it, heartily endorse his course. Mir. Patterson is man who always says what he means and means what he says, whether in politics or business, and the eff forts of those who, failing to use him are now trying to injure him, are futile.

 Il have been in Yuma several days and from personal observation I am inclined to the opinion that the soldier who sent to this place for his overcoat after having arrived at the kingdom of his satanic ma jesty was a mythical person, and only existed in the fertile imagina- tion of some versatile newspaper tourist who had just landed here, possibly from Greenland's icy mountains. In fact, the weather is not much warmer here than in Los Angeles, and the nights are exceed lngly pleasant"

THE New York World says: MT. Mckinley made his notorious old tariff speech over again at the Min neapolis convention, He is still pretending that the foreigner pays the tariff taxes and that protection simply taxes "the products of other nations" instead. of the products of our own. MT. Mckinley, however, has never answered the question put to him by the World oyer and over again; Why is it if the for eigners pay the tariff taxes that the Fifty-frst Congress was content with spending . billion dollars? Why did it not lavish more of the foreigners money on the people of this country? Why did it not wiring more splendid sum out of the manufacturers and merchants of Europe for the payment of gov ernment's expenses and the Repub- lieaa party's extravagance? How can Mr. Mckinley excuse this self restraint which still leaves some ot the public burdens to be borne by Americans? Will he not answer the question now that he has repeat ed the proposition? Moreover, he might tell the country why he even refrained from raising enough to make up the deficiency caused by the extravaganza of the congress in which he was the leader OF the floor of the House of Representatives.

E. K. Walbridge, the Chick Short method representative, is doing q great deal of quiet, but effective work among the miners, who have been quite liberal in agreeing to contribute ore, and says he will yet have his plant in operation in Pres colt. He does not ask cent, only ground and rich ore, running from $2O to $40 per ton which cannot be treated by any other known process, and he does not ask for the delivery of pound of ore until the S2O,O00 plant Is in operation. No fairer proposition has ever been submit ted here in that line. As the Nc Arthur Forest people are also be- stirring themselves to put ill their process, Preecott's prospects for home treatment of all classes of ores seem to be very good at present.

The Azure Mining Company, a New York corporation, for the past eight months has been working it's turquois mine in the Burro noun tains very quietly and very success fully, making regular monthly ship ments to New York. Five men have been constantly employed on the mine since it's inception, and have been paid with a commenda- ble regularity. The precious ma terial is found in seams and also in the form of geodes, and occasional ly enough is found in what is term ed a "nest," to pay three months labor. The development consists of one pit some 30 feet deep, 30 feet wide and 40 feet long, the waste rock being run by car through a tunnel to the dump.

Kid, the renegade Apache, Is hav- ing a genuine savage picnic and takes fiendish delight in fitting about the country in defiance of the military forces and the vengeful wrath of his own outraged kinsmen, He is one day lowering about the reservation, secure in his own deep cunning, and the next day finds him threading some lonely canyon many miles away, with the object of his mission completely fulfilled. He is a wiley devil and thinks no more of shedding human blood than of cutting down a blade of grass that mods it's head too low for the comfort of his slumbers. His success is making him bold, and some day he will venture out too far from his safe hiding places and forty-five calibre surprise will overtake him.-Enterprise
