HAPPY DOGS.
The Office of Dog Catcher mas
4 L. L. IL L..

The Office of Dog Catcher mas
Been Abolished by the Mayor.
Yesterday morning Peter Andcrson's
official title was ''Dog Catcher of Min
neapolis." Today he has been stripped
of all his honors, and is plain Peter
Anderson, citizen and nothing more.
Mayor Winston appointed the dog
catcher, and Mayor Winston de-
posed him. Shortly after din
ner yesterday an order was
sent from the mayors office which de-
capitated Mr.. Anderson and given to
Officer Bayhan to serve. He took it to
the pound where the dog catcher and
his assistants were busily engaged in
fattening up the unclaimed ours for
slaughter. He read the order to them.
1t was like death knell to them. 1t
it MADE every unlicensed dog in the city
set up howl of thankfHness. They
praised the city's executive at the top
of their voices.
The order briefly informed Dog Catch
er Anderson that from the time the Or
der was read to him his Office would
cease to exist. There were no more
unlicensed dogs in the city, and there
fore the dog catcher'S valuable assist
ance would no longer be needed. What
fall was there! The one important
position which it was in the power of
the mayor to appoint man to fill had
been abolished with one fell swoop, and
without moments warning.
The mayor was asked why he had
abolished the position so precipitately,
and he replied that the dog catcher was
not needed any longer, so there was no
necessity for dalIlance. 1t is understood
that the mayor had weightier reasons
for cutting Off the dog catcher thus in
the full bloom of his prosperity and
happiness. He declines to give them,
however. At-any rate the dog catcher
has been getting into a peck
of trouble of late, and several
irate owners of dogs threaten
gren ahd S. 3. Wooley. the owners of
the kennels at 1905 Nineteenth avenue
south, threaten to have him arrested on
the charge of larceny, claiming that he
has in his possession twenty-five valua-
BILE dogs belonging to them. A number
of the dogs alleged to have been capt
ured were blOoded English dogs. 1t is
said that recently man named Hicks
asked one Myers. who is believed to be
the chief beneficiary of the dog-catching
business, to catch and hold dogs on a
percentage. 1t is Claimed that Myers
gave the fellow a team, which he
did not return. Hicks is said
to have left one dog with Wettergren
and Wooley. Myers. who had heard of
1t, is alleged to have raided the kennel
| and captured all the dogs found in it.
Myers, it is said. is now threatened
with arrest also. 1t is alleged that Bar
mum, the proprietor of another kennel.
has lost a number of valuable bulldogs,
and it is claimed that Anderson's men
took them.
The knowledge of the above facts is
said to have caused the mayor to issue
the order abolishing the dog catcher's
department.

Unhappy Wives Who Sought and
Received the Laws Solace
The usual budget of divorce cases
came before the district court yesterday
and four unhappy couples were made
single again. Elizabeth Finnegan told
Judge CAVITY of her matrimonial troubles
since she became the wife of Thomas
Finnegan, whom she wed Just seven
years ago. 1t was case of more kicks
and cuffs than kisses, ending with de-
sertion in 1890. The court granted her
decree.
Judge Smith listened to the woes of
Nicolena Stahl, who for four years past
has been the better half of Ferdinand
Stahl. Ferdinand, she said, was bar
Der by trade and earned an income of
from SO to SIT per week. A very little
OF that amount, however, came her way,
but instead she had to hustle for her
OWN living and that of their child. She
also proved that if Ferdinand was chary
Of his money he was DrofuSe with per-
sonal abuse. Mrs. SIahl left the witness
stand free woman.
The same judge also took up the case
of Hannah Hansen. Hannah married
Peter HANSEN when at The tender age
Of fourteen years. Blows and curses
had been her lot through the course of
the past twelve years, and Judge Smith
cut the matrimonial bonds without fur
Their ado.
Tena Gross told her tale to Judge
Pond. She married George 3. Gross
some six years ago. After living to-
gether three years George folded his
tent and silently departed to parts IN
known. Tena strongly objected to any
longer remaining a grass widow. and
the court upheld her.

dues were paid up to the time of De

in good standing. 1t will be remem-

from the police force some time before
he died, and the association claims it is

A Legal Reminder.

An echo of the celebrated Leo He'll
perm case came up in the district court
yesterday. 1t was heard on motion
for a new trial in the case OF the Column
bia Mill Company against The National
Bank of Commerce.. The mo-
ton was taken before Judge
Hicks and denied. The bank cashed
checks amounting to several thousand
dollars, which bore the Endorsement of
Heilpern on behalf of the company, and
the question was whether Leo was au-
thorized to indorse the paper. At the
trial of the case the jury found he was
not so authorized. The bank will,
therefore, have to put up with the loss
unless the supreme court should re-
verse Judge Hicks ruling Of yesterday
and give them the chance of opening
the matter anew,
