A Curious Parasite.

It is an old saying that every dog has his day. According to an English au- thority, that day is neither very long nor specially comfortable in Fiji. It is i'm possible to keep foreign dogs alive for much more than a couple of years. Those born there may live four years. The cause of this mortality is 8 species of worm that lives in the blood vessels. ar teries and heart. Adult specimens of this parasite sometimes measure as much as five inches, and the blood of some an imals is actually swarming with them. Puppies are often troubled with them, although it seems to take about six months to develop them to troublesome stage. When 8 dog is attacked, 1t begins with sharp barking, which is at once recognized as the beginning of poor Ffdo's last chapter. Thus far no remedy has been found or even suggested. The same parasite is found in dogs in eastern Asia, and identical symptoms are noted. The animal may live six months to two years after the first indications are observed.- New York Ledger.

Calling Smith.

Miss Kate Field relates an experience which she had in trying to sleep in a hotel in 8 Utah mining town where the partitions between the rooms were of boards merely and quite innocent of lath and plaster. The ordinary going and coming of the early part of the night were bad enough, but toward morning, when at last she had fallen asleep, loud voice shouted from her keyhole:
 Smith! Smith!'
 AS her name was not Smith, she made no response.
 .'Smithr' came the shout again. "It's time to skipr'
 "My name is not Smith," she then an- swered.
 From across the hall came the call of the day clerk, who occupied the room there:
 No. That ain't Smith. Smiths at the end of the hall"
 ''Well, this is the end of the hail." came from the neighborhood of the key hole again. It was the voice of the DOT ter.
 "Aren't there two ends to the hall? It's the other end, you blockhead."
 "Who wants SmithY" came sharp voice from the distance. 'Tm Smith,"
 What's the matter? Pm Smith," came still another voice.
 "Well, whichever Smith wants to get up at 4 o'clock, him's the one," growled the porter.
 Both these Smiths slammed their doors with vehement protestation that they didn't want to get up.
 ''Its Smith in No. 1r' screamed the day clerk.
 The right Smith had not been walked at all, so the porter found No. and pounded on the door so hard that every body in the house who had not already been walked was aroused, and several people rushed out into the hall, thinking there was fire.
 The porter went down complacently to the office on the floor below.
 "Well," said he to the night clerk, "I walked him up anyhow"

We hope this large army of wheelmen will insist that good behavior is as much to be de- sired as good roads. We know the ma- jority of wheelmen are considerate and polite, but among them are a few men whose disregard of the laws and the rights of others is creating savage opposition to the wheel and resulting in the restriction of the rights of the wheelmen.

A FOOTPAD'S BOLD WORK.
HE HOLDS UP TWO PERSONS IN
ONE NIGHT.
A Robber who Got q silver watch
and S4 for His Treuble-His
Face Was Concealed
by Mask.

A footpad operated very successfully
in THE city Saturday night. So far. two
crimes committed by him have been re-
ported to the police.
The first holdup took place at 1045
South Hill street at 80 o'clock, the
victim being George Henderson. press
man, who resides ct that number. The
robbery was committed almost in front
of Henderson's door. The footpad used
dangerous looking revolver as the per-
suasive power to secure q silver watch.
He commanded his victim TO throw up
his hands. and they went up. He care
fully went through Henderson's pockets,
but found nothing except the watch.
The next deed committed by the dar-
ing individual an hour later was to hold
up Christian Sebelius, jatitor of the State
Normal school building at Grand ave.
nue. and Fifth street. The footped gave
the usual command and the janitor
obeyed orders, only to find that he was
So loser for his trouble. The robber
took all Mr.. Sebelius had and fed.
Both victims describe the footpad as q

and there is no doubt that the same rob-
