make standing statement in regard
to the Lunipg-J ohnson matter On
or about the I'd day of December a
lot of old shirts was left in my Office
with instructions to repair them by
one signed Luning. | did repair
the shirts, and few days later this
man Luning, accompanied by his
wife, called and brought another
shirt to be repaired, and also asking
to see the first lot of shirts. | show
ed them and they were both well
pleased and said the job was well
done, and told me that the China
man would call on Monday and take
them to be re-laundried. This was
on Saturday previous to Monday
mentioned, and when / finished the
last shirt l brought the bill to
Luning at his Office. He got excited
but l did not scare, and | simply
told him / would like to collect
money for my work. He used some
very hot words and said | had a
cheek to ask for my money then,
and he said he would ruin me, but

in presence of witness that he was
welcome to call at my place of bust
ness, where | have a room enclosed
and he could try on the shirts there,
but he would not do it, No doubt
Mr.. Luning thought he had dead

that fell out of the balloon-he was
simply not in it. | will say this,
that in any case | make new shirts
and if they do not give entire salts

TERRIFIED BY A DOG.


The Canine Held a Brave Quartet Pris-
oners in a Graveyard for Hours.
In one of the prominent cemeteries
within the central confines of Allegheny
county there is a lonely pathway which
has for some time been utilized by a
coterie of young society men of the East
end as short cut to their respective
homes in late evening hours, after the
regular weekly meetings of their social
literary club, which holds its sessions
every Saturday evening.
At their last gathering the subject of
discussion was ''Modern Superstition,
and when they started homeward at 2
o'clock the next morning they were
silently refectful as they entered the
initial portal in the fence which is pre-
sumed to protect from intrusion the
ground where 'graveyards yawn." As
they neared the end of their walk within
the cemetery limits they We're somewhat
more than bewildered to discover that
the paling in the high fence, which had
been missing and granted them pre-
viously a mode of egress, had been re-
placed. One of the burying ground
promenaders said to reporter next
morning:
"That discovery took every vestige of
nerve out of our quartet. We had been
comparing notes of the pleasures of a
pleasant evening, and while some at
tempts had been made to discuss the
weird scene in the city of the dead, ow-
ing to the uncertain lights and shadows
of our surroundings, we had become so
accustomed to such attempts that they
had no effect on any of us. But sud
denly there was the bark of dog. 1t
was an angry and threatening warning.
We knew what the sound meant and we
knew all about the dog. In the day
time he was and is still reputed to be
gentle even to strangers, but in the
night hours he is considered in the first
class as a terror not only to possible
grave robbers, but also to even gentle
manly and thoroughly circumspect
cemetery pedestrians. Well, we had
just concluded to retrace our steps and
take the electric cars home by the long
and roundabout route, when we saw
that shaggy, big dog making break
for us.
"Dodging tombstones and jumping
mounds, we reached vault, and in
true acrobatic style four of us We're
soon astride of a cold stone roof with
that dog barking at our heels. Our
canes helped to keep him at bay, but
we were soon convinced that the ami
NAL could not possibly climb or jump
up to us. 1t was only semisatisfaction,
however, for the canine laid down at
the side of the vault and assumed
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES look. We sat
there three hours, when our enemy set
up series of terrible bowls, and one Of
the cemetery employees quickly APP
peare1 1r3n the scene. He said he
knew bullets had no effect on spooks or
ghosts, or he might have used his seven
shooter, mista '.ing us for actual visitors
from the real Ia of the dead. OF course
or X ,Il.2tiUn was satisfactory, but as
the Oh gr-yeyall guardian let us out
at tho mp + enti nee gate, he said
