BUMMER AND LAZARUS.
Story of Generous Dog Who Protected n
irlendless Old Our.


a homeless dog strayed into San
Francisco engine house, and was made
welcome by the jolly firemen. Though
they named him hummer they treated
him kindly, fed him, made him bed
and gave him the freedom of the house.
hummer repaid their kindness by
devoting himself to his new friends.
He ran with the engine to every fire,
marched with it proudly on parade,
kept other dogs out of it's way and
guarded the men if they needed his
care. He was seldom off duty unless
hunger prompted IL visit to neighbor-
ing restaurant, where n friend of his
engine kindly fed him.
One day, after eating hearty meal
there, he crammcd his mouth with
meat and bones and trotted off He
did the same the next day, and the
next. Then he was followed. Going
through several streets he entered
small, dark, dirty alley, and, at its
farther end laid the food before half
starved dog; then, wagging his tail in
satisfaction. he kept guard while the
old creature ate.
Learning that hummer was support
ing a friend the firemen went to see
what attractions there were about the
old dog. They found miserable,
dirty skeleton with broken leg
Much of his hair was gone and his body
marked with sores and scars, telling of
recent and earlier battles. Though
they saw nothing desirable in the old
fellow, Bummcr's kindness and wistful
look conquered.
The old creature was taken to the
engine house, his leg put in splints, an
addition made to Bummer's bed, and
the newcomer given a share in the
others rights. To the dog with sores
the fircmen gave the name of Lazarus.
Kind treatment and good food showed
their effect on Lazarus, but could not
make him young again. He regained
strength, recovered the use of his leg
and was able to walk about, but never
to run far with the engine. His duty
seemed to be to guard the house while
his younger friend attended to the en-
gine In the streets.
The old fellow appeared to be the
butt of every cur in the ward. The
meanest and most cowardly canine of
the street need only see Lazarus away

A Clever Lawyer.

In murder trial before a western
court, the prisoner was able to account
for the whole Of his time, except five
minutes, on the evening when the
crime was committed. His counsel
argued that it was impossible for him
to have killed the man, under the cir
cumstances, in so brief period, and on
that plea largely based his defense,
the other testimony being strongly
against his client. When the prose-
cutting attorney replied, he said: "How
long time really is five minutes? Let
us see. VIII his honor command abso-
lutte silence in the court room for that
spaceP" The judge graciously COM
piled. There was clock on the wall.
Every eye In the courtroom was fixed
upon 1t, as the pendulum ticled off
the seconds. The keen-witted counsel
waited until the tired audience gave a
sigh Of relief at the close of the Pc
riod, and then asked, quietly: "Could
he not have struck one fatal blow in
all OF that time?' The prisoner was
found guilty, and, as 1t was proved af-
terward, justly.

Has Our sympathy.

Factory Inspector Watchorn has our
sympathy. He made a very bad break,
it appears, when he answered the letter
sent from this Office in reference to the
semi-monthly pay law, and to cover up
some of the damage that his answer did
in the county to Hines, he wrote another.
1t was published in the Wilkes-Ba
Leader on the eve of election, and in it
he regrets that his correspondence with
the TRIBUNE was used for political pur-
poses. He does not deny that the reply
was truthful one, but brings in the
lamentable excuse that he didn't know
it was for publication, No doubt had he
known that true and honest statement
from his department would hurt the
congressman, it would not likely be
sent. We were well aware of the friend
ship existing between the two, and took
the precaution to keep Mr.. Watchorn
in the dark as to what disposition we in
tended to make of his answer.

In response to repeated requests for a
word on the result of the election
which came from many sources, Mr..
Morton made the following reply
through the United Press:

as the protests of the people of the
empire state against false theories and
practices in federal and state govern
ment and the condemnation of official
corruption in New York city. i am
profoundly sensible of the high honor
conferred upon me by the citizens of
this great state and of the grave re-
sponsibilities which will devolve upon
me as the result of their action"

telephoned to Mr.. Morton. the private

on Benjamin for assistance John
thereupon turned on Benjamin and
drove him into another room. The
door was closed and John fired through
one of the panels, killing him instant

New York democracy the only persons
competent for the tasks and deserving
of the rewards of politics; while dem

Joke on His Papa.

There was an elopement from a
suburb of Baltimore the other day
which would form the subject for an
excellent play or the plot for good
novel. A man of means who had
matrimonial views for his son OBJ
jected strongly to that young gentle,
men marrying young lady whose
responsibility and poverty were
about equally admitted. One day
the young man surprised his father
by saying he was tired of the match
and wanted TO get out of it, but that
the girls father threatened to sue
him for breach Of promise if he failed
to carry out his promise.
The old man said nothing, but
lost no time in visiting the girls
father and offering him handsome
sum if he would sign document in
behalf of his daughter in discharge
of all claims. The offer was accept.
ed and meeting arranged at a law
yer's office the next day. and the
necessary papers were drawn up and
the money handed over. The fol-
lowing day the young people stimuli
taneously disappeared, and a few
days later letter came from New
York notifying the old gentleman
of his sons marriage, and pleading
for forgiveness. Instead of being
enraged at being compelled to pay a
marriage portion in this way, the
cid man appreciated the joke, threw
up the sponge and wired to New
York that the young people could
come home as soon as the honey
moon was over.
