The platform of the Peoples party
starts out by saying that the people
have no money and, a little later on,
calls for the establishment of postal
savings banks for the safe deposit of the
peoples money. Now, if the people
have no money, as declared in the first
part Of the platform, what on earth do
they want of savings banks7 There is
about as much concordance in these two
propositions as in what the Iriahman
said about the Yankee. He said, "You
can cast him away one day upon dis
solute island and, the very next day,
he'd be goin' around and sellin' maps of
the place to all the inhabitants!"

Dogs in the AbrIgadOr District Said te
 Re Growing Mad.
 People living in the Abrigador dis trict are in a state of excitement over a mysterious disease that has broken out among the dogs of that vicinity. Not less than a dozen canines have shown symptoms of madness and nearly all have been killed.
 The trouble dates back to Thanksgiv. ing day, when a hound owned by George Stearns of Baldwin street, exhi- bited symptoms of hydrophobia and at tackled a bulldog. In the fight the hound was badly whipped, though not aubdued. It was tied up. but escaped the following day and ran through the streets biting several other dogs, all of which have since gone mad and been killed.
 Only one person is known to have been bitten. the little daughter of Cor nellus Moriarty, and she has entirly re- covered. Every few weeks since the first scare some dog has shown the symptoms first noticed in Stearns' hound. Among those who have found it necessary to kill their dogs are Dennis Delaney, Cornelius Moriarty, Mrs Owen Thompson, George Stearns, Thomas Cavanaugh, w. H. Underhill and others. Mir Underhill lost a hound valued at $50. This morning a strange log ran through Baldwin street biting several others. This is a matter of which the authorities should take cog nizaOce

A Good word For che 1Eunicipnl Fire
 Alarm System.

A Good word For tha Municipal Fire
 Alarm system.
 Editor of the DEMOCRAT:
 In reply to a communication in last evenings American, would say to the esteemed correspondent, that he need have no anxiety that the present board of fire commissioners contemplate any nasty or ill-advised action in regard to the extension of the fire alarm system; but do believe that they intend to give the taxpayers all that can be obtained at the lowest price. In regard to the perfection of said system-and improve ments are always in order-everyt thing else being equal, the public at large can judge if it is not to their interest to save $50 on every box put in, $225 on a repeater, $50 on a new switch board, and other small items; especially when the company that is willing to do so, will give six months trial of lthe same without any expense or obligation to the city, and if at the end of that time they have not proved satisfactory, will remove them and ask no questions. The correspondent remarks, the best is al- ways the cheapest. Very true. But we have some costly equipments that are of but very little use, and have not been all that was represented. as we have | found out before now. The GameWell system is good, but it has it's defects, and they have been taken advantage of and improved on by the Municipal system. Our present repeater was manufactured under the supervision of Mir Crane, the treasurer and superintendent of the Municipal Go, a man who helped to
 make the reputation at present held by
 the Gamewell system. As to the boxes they are of the non-interfering class.
 The Gamewell boxes are not. This in itself is a decided improvement. Also, the
 new system will work in conjunction with our present one, thereby saving . any additional expense. However when the commissioners appointed by
 the board, Messrs Hart, McAuliffe anC P Chef Snagg have seen the working oi ] the new system and have had satisfac ] tory evidence of it's reliability, we will be able to judge better. So be calm 3 gentlemen, and do not form any biased 3 opinion until the question has beer D thoroughly sifted. I do not intend t. . enter into any controversy about thi
 question; but the remarks of "Experi
 enced" are in a measure misleading tt those interested and might create , wrong impression as to the alleged ytunworthiness of the Municipal system. Respectfully,

 The ''White Slave" drew crowded houses at the Bijou throughout the week. Nearly every night late arrivals found that they must content them selves with standing room, and many did this rather than miss the opportu- nifty of seeing the play. This, the greatest of Bartley Campbells dramas, appears to grow more popular year by year, and it's success bids fair to be as enduring as that of "Uncle Toms Cabin." It is certainly as beautiful a creation as ever emanated in a play writer's brain.-Pittsburg Dispatch. At the opera house this evening.
