There is a dog-a canine-in Chat
tanooga that shows remarkable lack
OF what is generally considered dog
sense, but thereby exhibits an unusual
intelligence. The dog is regular pat
ron OF lower Market street saloon.
Three times every day he trots into
the place, with a tin pail made TO hold
about two quarts, and takes his posi-
ton at the beer cooler. The barkcep-
er takes the pail, appropriates the coin
inside of it, and substitutes beer. Then
the pail is again given to the dog, and
at the command "Take it home, he
makes the return trip and presents the
beverage to his owner, receiving by
way of encouragement polite That's
good boy"

MOVES. ROCKWELL CONTEST.
Much Interest Felt in The House,
The Result In Doubt.

WAsHINGToN, April 20.-There is a
great deal of uncertainty among Dem
ocratic members as to how they will
vote in the Noyes-Rockwel contested
election case and in consequence OF it
the interest in the case has greatly in
creased. The arguments will be lis
tened to with more attention than has
been shown 10 any election case since
the contests in preceding congresses
against the Ohio tariff opponents, Nc
Kinley and Hurd. The reports of the
committee have been studied with a
great deal of care, but many members
have not yet determined on which
side they will vote. For this reason
the argument made on the floor will
have more than the usual weight for
it will be as a result OF listening to the
debate that number of Democrats
will decide for whom to cast their votes
OF the Democrats who are paired not
one has yet directed that he be paired
in favor Of Noyes. A number OF the
pairs which are in the custody OF Col
Ike Hill, however, were made out
some days ago, and are generally pairs
not made for this special case.

Referring to the question of compelling

end, In An interview with a Posi- INrELL1-
cEscER reporter yesterday. said:
ship-owners, agents and underwriters on the
racine coast are circulating petitions for the
signatures OF those interested asking the treas
ury department TO order tina revenue cutters
etatloned on this coast 70 cruise actively along
the coast during the stormy months for the TO-
hef OF vessels found in distress In an inter
view In the San Francisco Examiner, E. B.
Jerome, deputy collector of the San Francisco
custom house, claims that the revenue cutters
bear, Corwin and Rush have TO cruise in Arctic
waters during the summer months for the pro-
tection OF the whaling feet and our sealing in
serests, and that when they return the officers
ana crews have right to be given a rest, etc
Inc officers and crew OF each of these vessels
number over 100 men. Imagine these
Arctic cruisers resting for six months
OF the year with all these men on full
pay and rstions. Let US look over the law on
the subject The act of March 3 1893, defines
the duties OF the revenue marine as pertains to
the security of the customs revenue, the assist
anee OF vessels in distress. etc. There is moth
ing In the law giving officers and crews OF
revenue vessels six months rest in the year on
iuil pay and rations. Is il not a wonder that,
II there be nothing for these vessels TO do, they
are not put out of com mission and their crews
discharged until the season comes for them to
return north? But Mr.. Jerome tells the Exam
fner that Collector Phelps has no control over
these vessels; tina the has no right to order
them TO go anywhere The law clearly SAYS
that officers OF the revenue marine are officers
OF the customs service, and arc subject, as
such, to the direction and control of collectors
why Is 1t that this power has been taken out of
his hands? II the collector has NO power to
ORDER these vessels to cruis- during the winter
months for the protection of our merchant
marine, Pacific coasters will have no assistance
from the customs authorities on this side. They
must send their petitions to the president

the Mackinaw, which is owned by the
same company as the Keweenaw, is now
on her way to the Coast with cargo from
New York. Mr.. Jerome continued:
One difficulty in the way is the procuring Of
vessels Our company owns but two. but the
Mineola will run on the line ii we establish it,
II is hard To find American vessels of the class
we require. We intended to have vessel leave
once month, though st first probably not

vested 1000 bushels of oats therefrom
Kiowa Journal: Jake Klingerman,
who lives two miles west of this city.
has raised 5000 bushels of corn this
season. Jake is hustler, a good farm

besides, he owns one of the finest, best
watered farms that lies in our township,
and knows how to make it boom with
crops.
Garden City letter: It is not gener-
ally known that bee keeping is success
in this country. The alfalfa furnishes
fine flower for honey. Less than two
years ago Frank Howard came he
with sixteen stands He has sold foul
teen stands to neighbors and now has
thirty-six at home. His yield of comb
honey during the past season was fifty
five pounds per stend. J. B. Cotton
brought sixty stands here less than two
years ago, and has not been so success
full as Mr.. Howard. His stands were
flooded twice during the past season.

it approaches very near it. It's products

EMIN PACHA has been heard from
again, and he has been so busy bug
hunung-in the strictly scientific
sense-that he has paid little atteu-
tion to politics, and really doesn't
know whom he belongs to. German
jealousy has been aroused by the
gallant entomologist's uncertainty as
to the nationality to which he should
communicate his discoveries and COL
lection Of butterflies; and in Berlin
and Hamburg he has already been
accused Of desire to set up an equa-.
torial empire for himself, where he
could found the largest museum of in
sects ever established. And it is quite
on the cards that the Germans may
be sending an armed force on his
track-tO prevent the loss to the
Fatherland of all that Emin has ac-
Quired, both territory and eccentric
bugs.
