RESCUED BY A DOG.
Canine Sagacity Saves the Life of
: a Starving Man.
Two Small Boys. Led On by Their Faithful
Companion, Come Upon Prostrate
Form in a Lonely Garret in the
Nick CT Time.

Through the saeacity of dog an
unfortunate man was found recently
in the rickety attic of a deserted
house while on the verge of most
horrible death. Stretched pros
trate on the dirt-coyered floor which
for days had been disturbed by moth
ing save the rats, the man lay
breathing his last in the humid air
to which the sun beating on the
fragile roof impaired the heat of a
furnace. Besides suffering from
disease, the man was starving to
death. He had been there four or
five days without a bite to eat.
Two small lads, respectively seven
and thirteen years of age, who had
been romping in the alley near by
suddenly took notion to enter the
court leading to the old structure.
They had frequently explored this
rickety old pile before, and, actu-
ated by their boyish inquisitiveness,
had pried into its most secluded and
dusty hooks. Their dog, Loafer,
the constant companion of the two,
ran on in advance, and, bouncing
into the hallway, made up the quak-
ing flights of circuitous steps.
It was spirit of adventure that
brought the boys here on this occa-
sion. They had been there four or
five days before, and up in
the little attic, where oldfash-
ioned windows penetrated the
roof, they had found a man lying
on the floor, apparently sleeping.
Thinking this was his usual haunt
they had feared to disturb him, and
slipped as quietly as possible down
the creaking steps. Two days after
they had repeated their visit and
found the same occupant in the
dusty room. They made sure he was
not dead, for they shook him and he
rolled restlessly. They concluded
he must have come in for another
sleep and so they left him again.
Soon after they again crept up the
steps and peered into each deserted
room, when fear took hold upon
them and they would not go farther.
Not so with the dog. He leaped
lightly up the attic flight and dashed
into the room which the boys had
regarded with temerity. Soon
'Loafer's" barking was making
the old house ring. The boys were
more frightened than ever, but
when they could not coax the faith
full animal away, the smaller boy
said he would see what excited the
dog. George led the way, and a
terrible scene greeted him as he en-
tered the close room. There on the
floor lay the same man, and it was
evident this time he was dying from
starvation. The dog was tugging
at the mans sleeve, trying to arouse
him.
The boys Immediately fed down
stairs and told of their discovery.
The police were notified and it was
not long before the patrol wagon
squad was coming down the, stairs
with the man.

A BIG STORY.
The Reader May Judge for Him
self of Its Truthfulness.
A Woodchucls with Two liberated Teeth
"A Sportsman by Chance Shoots Out
One-Turns About to Have tho
Other Likewise Treated.

A party of men went out recently
to shoot woodchucks, says the Roch-
ester Democrat and Chronicle.
When the hunters returned in the
evening each carried , number Of
woodchuck tails, trophies of the
day. One of these is worthy of
wider circulation.
81 had walked along the left bank
of a ravino for half an hour" said
one participant, without coming
across any spoor and was beginning
to think that it was not good day
for woodchucks, when on turning up
a bend l saw not more than fifty
yards away woodchuck whirliug
around in most extraordinary
manner. He would turn a complete
somersault. then tear up the earth
with his feet, and then pause and
rub his jaw, first one side and then
the other, on the ground. / was so
astonished at the actions of the
beast that l did not think of shoot
ing. Suddenly the woodchuck
paused and sat up on his launches
in the manner peculiar to these ami
mails. His side was to me and Of
fered tempting shot. l aimed at
his head and fired. He went down
with the report of the rifle, but he
tumbled around so furiously that I
concluded he had not received a
mortal wound. I slipped in another
cartridge, wondering why the ami
NAL had not made dash for it's bur-
row.
"After adjusting the cartridge I
looked for the game again, and was
surprised to observe that he was
again sitting up, but facing the
other way, so that side of his head
that was from me when l shot was
now toward me. I took a careful
aim for the side of the head again
and fired. Down he went once more
and repeated his tumbiing and kick
ing. I made a remark and chucked
in another shell, intending to bore
him through the body this time.
"When got ready to shoot again
the woodchuck was moving leisurely
toward the edge of the ravine 1
tried snap shot and he rolled over.
his sides heaved once and he was
dead.
"When I came to examine the
body of the animal, what do you sup
pose l discovered? Why, gentle
men, that woodchuck's upper jaws
were in terribly swollen condition.
His long incisor teeth had undoubt-
edly become liberated, and his tum-
bling and writhing before I shot at
him was undoubtedly caused by
pain.
''Now, when l fired the first time,
the ball removed one OF these ulcer
ated teeth, and what did the beast
do but turn the other side of his jaw
to me, and by chance I shot out the
other bad tooth. When he found
that both painful teeth were gone,
he started for his den and was killed
by my third shot.
Gentlemen" said Mr.. Loder, in
all your experience in the woods,
did you ever hear of so curious q
case?"
Mr. Lewis and Mr.. McChesney be-
came thoughtful, and they remained
in deep, study until the three
reached Rochester. Mr.. Loder in
tends writing paper for some
learned body upon the case of the
woodchuck with the liberated teeth.

IMPORTANT RAILWAY CASE.


WINDSOR. May 80 The United States
Circuit Court of Appeals for the second
circuit has Just announced an important de-
cision in the case of William Johnston vs.
the Canadian Pacific Railway company
The case was tried in the United States Cir
cult Court at Windsor before Judge Wheeler
and n jury, and resulted in verdict for the
plaintiff for %Sl2J damages and costs. Ex
ceptions We're taken by the railway COM
pany and the case was argued in New York
city last march by Gilbert \. Davis, Henry
Ballard and a. X. Brown for plaintiff and
by Joel c. Baker and F. +. Alfred for the
railway company.
Several important legal questions were
involved, but the principal ono related to
the liability of the railway company for the
acts and neglects of the conductor of the
freight train upon which Johnston was Il
brakeman. The conductor under the rules
of the company had the entire control of
the train and all the employees upon it, The
court held that the conductor was not a
fellow servant with the brakeman, and that
the company were liable for his acts.
