WAS IT SUICIDE2

Homeless Cur Which Found No Sympa-
thy in the Wicked City of Gotham.
He would probably have responded
to any old name with a waggle of his
stumpy tail. He was a chummy little
cur if encouraged, but as he skunk
around the corner of Eighty-first street
into Central park west late one Sunday
night, says the New York Sun, two
fresh wounds on his back indicated that
his friendly advances had been re-
pulsed. Somebody had struck or
kicked him and his body was quivering
with pain. He was unattached, hun
CRY, and weak, but he had hopes
A boy came down the street and
made a strike at him with a stick The
dog drew back into the doorway of an
apartment house and stood there
thinking it over. He shifted the air
weakly and found in it no suggestion
of food. Then, with little whine, he
nursed his wounds. A man came out
of the door, and finding a scraggy-
looking cur blocking his way, kicked
him to one side and walked up town.
The dog picked himself up. Perhaps
he would have better luck next time,
SO he just loafed around. He attempt
ed to tag behind passerby as if he be-
longed and just as he was regaining
his self-respect the man turned
around and said: Get out, you
cur" The dog stopped short. He
watched the man until he turned
down a side street. Then the dog
walked back to his corner still hoping.
When a young woman with her escort
passed him he was wise dog and he
got up a little appealing bark. The
young woman bent over and said:
''Why, you poor, lonesome little dog"
And when she patted him on the head
his stubby little tail waggled hard and
his eyes frightened. This was the
sympathy he had been looking for. He
fell in behind and followed his newly
acquired friends to an apartment house
half dozen blocks up the street. Sew
eral times the woman turned around
and addressed a remark to him, and
she called him "doggie" because she
hadn't known him long enough to give
him a name. She probably would at
tend to that after she had fed him. AS
his two friends entered the apartment
house they evidently forgot him, for
the door was closed in his face. They
would remember him when he barked,
SO he made noise. Then he whined a
little and waited.
An open English avenue car was COM
ing down grade at rapid pace, and
party of picnickers in it were singing.
The dog walked out to the curb and
watched the well-lighted car approach.
Possibly the lights and the noise dazed
him as he was crossing the track. AS
the car bowled by there was a wild
kiyi under the horses hoofs and the
wheels rolled over something. The
conductor went back to investigate.
''Only dog" he said, as he rang to go
ahead, ''and he's dead for fair. What
| don't understand is why, with the
whole street free, he should permit
himself to be run over"

MORE WOMEN THAN MEN.
This Statement Applies Only to Certain
Sections OF the World.

This Statement Applies Only to Certain
Sections OF the World.
Statistics prove that, taking the world
as whole, the number of men and
women is about equal-the best argu-
ment against pOlygamy-but this re-
lationship varies greatly when indi-
vidual countries are considered, says
the New York Tribune. According to
the last estimate of the worlds popu-
lation, made up from the census in sim
gle states. Norway and Scotland are
the countries with the greatest rela-
tive number of women. In these coun-
tries there are to every 100 men re-
spectivcly 1918 and 1912 women. The
excess of women is also large in
Sweden, there being 1868 to every 100
men; in England, where there are LOG,
in Denmark with 1851, and in Switzer-
land, with 1856. The countries OF the
north in general show a larger popla-
tiOn of women.
Of the lands with more temperate
climate Austria has 1914 women to 100
men, Hungary 1O1.5 to 100, and France
1907 to 100.
Further toward the south men be-
come the more numerous. Spain, al
most alone Of the southern European
countries, numbers more females than
males, the proportion being 1O4 to 100
Roumania, Servia and Bulgaria are
more masculine, SO to speak, there be-
ing for every 100 men respectively 9G. 4,
94.8 and 96.5 women. In Italy the per-
centage is almost equal, the relation
ship being 99.5 to 100 in favor of the
women. In the United States, say the

Apology to Winter.

Oh, winter! we are sorry, quite,
That when the fields with snow were white
And billiards howled from morn till night
We said mean things about you.
Now, when were roasting every day
We all of US will gladly say,
If we could only have our way
We'd never be without you
While you were here we fondly dreamed
OF fields through which some brooklet st trearued
And golden summer, SO it seemed,
Would suit US to the letter
But now as we from morn till night
Must wildly fan with all our might,
We're signing for your fields Of white
And love you SO much better.

First National Convention.

LONDON, April 3.-John E. Red
mond and others have summoned
a national convention to meet in
Dublin today. The following is
the stirring call "Fellow country
men, the solemn words of warning
which we recently addressed to you
have been justified more speedily
than we anticipated. The Premier's
first official declaration proves the
correctness of our judgment in
cautionIng you to place no blind
confidence in him or his Cabinet.
The position OF our cause is render
still more perilous by the slavish
silence of the majority of the Irish
representatives and their action in
parliament today in first
voting closure of our critl-
cism of the Government pol
icy and then giving their votes di-
rectly in support of the Irish ad-
ministration and it's policy of evic-
ton, house-burning, prosecutions
and jury-packing. No crisis so
grave has arisen in the history of
Ireland since the death of our late
chief. We feel it to be our first
duty to appeal to you for consulta-
ton and guidance. With this in
view we shall summon a national
convention, to be held in Dublin
on April 3, to organize without de-
lay. We draw no narrow distinc-
ton which would exclude men
who recognized the national dan
ger and are willing to share in an
endeavor to avert it,"

Yale's Physician Sued.

NEW HAVEN, April 3.-Papers
have been served on DIR. Jay w.
Seaver, physical director of Yale
university, and John c. Kebabian,
a local importer of Turkish goods,
in a suit brought by the president
and fellows of Harvard college, to
recover $40 on a bond of $500
given by DR.. Seaver and Kehabian
that the tuition and other bills of
Sarkis Kehabian, while a student
of Harvard, would be paid. The
suit itself is trivial one,
but it is understood, on eX-
cellent authority, that the de-
fence in the case will be of what
might be called surprising
nature, inasmuch as it will sub
stantially charge the authorities
at Harvard with having lured
young Kebabian away from Yale
by offering him f1attering induce
menUs which never were fulfilled.
Sarkis Kebabian was a student at
Yale in 1890. He was of slender
means and learned that Harvard
offered greater advantages in the
way of scholarships to such as
he then could be obtained
at Yale. He wrote to
Harvard, and it is claimed, was as
sured that if he maintained a GER
tain standard scholarship would
be awarded him. He entered Har.
ward in 1892, took high stand, but
the scholarship was not awarded
him, and he left Harvard owing
$110 for tuition-the basis of the
suit. This he refused to pay, claim
ing that he had fulfilled his part
of an implied contract. The case
is returnable today.

THE PRESIDENTS VETO
To be Discussed, But Action is
Blocked by Election Contests.

WASHINGTON, d. c., April g.
The question of passing the Bland
silver seigniorage bill over Fresi-
dent Cleveland's veto was to have
come before the House today, and
active preparations have been
made by the elements for and
against the Presidents position.
There is every probability, how
ever, that the contest over the veto
will be put of, owing to deadlock
over the contested election cases.
The latter have the right
of-way on special rule, and Rep
resentative Patterson, in charge
of them say, he will hold the floor
all the summer if need be, rather
than surrender to deadlock.
Representative Tracy, a Democrat
of New York, says the veto will be
sustained by a large vote. Rep
resentative Bland has resisted the
propositions to send the veto to
the committee, to avoid en-
barrassment to those who
favored the bill, but don't want
to antagonize the President. ave
will listen to no compromises, but
insist upon a debate, and if the
Republicans do not vOte," said
Bland, 81 think we can pass the
bill over the veto by twO-thirds
vote of Democrats, but if the Re.
publicans vote, they will probably
sustain the Veto" Tracy says that
it is absolutely certain that the |
Republicans will vote.

Cutting Freight Rates.

KANSAS CITY, April 3.-The
Santa Fe has made a big cut in
freight rates from Kansas City and
other Missouri river points to
Texas, on some of the leading COM
modities. The rate on flour and
other grain products was reduced
from 81 to % cents per hundred
pounds, from 30 to 20 cents
on wheat, from 80 to Is cents on
oats and from q to - cents on
corn, hay and straw. The new
rates will be effective on the 5th,
and will doubtless be met by other
lines and will probably result in
a general Generalization of Texas
rates.

Big Cattle Convention.

CHEYENNE, Wy, April s.
The twenty-second annual meet
ing of the Wyoming Stock Grow
ers' association, was held here yes
terday, with a large attendance.
President Ray in his address said,
generally speaking, the losses
had been heavy, and everywhere
cattle enter the the spring months
far below the average con-
dition. Not since 1887 have
range matters seemed so blue,
country lightly stocked, and such
herds as have stood the storms
may regain their old time prestige
and make money for their owners.
The sentiment of the country as to
stealing aid depredations, is
changed for better, and Juries
of the state are giving us some
protection.

acter. It's my impression if any
body can enforce that law down
there which is all the governor is
trying to do, Tillman is Just the
man to do it. He is put in much
the same position as l am. The
aristocracy Of South Carolina is
against him, and the people are
with him. There is this difference:
His soldiers have refused to obey
him, and ours have not. But /
think he will enforce the law if it
can be done by ability"
