CAUGHT IN THE ACT
Mr.. Yaeger Says BE Saw Anderson
Deposit Letters on His Doorstep.
AN ATTEMPT TO DISGRACE
The Defendant. 1t Is Alleged.
Caused to Be Published In the
"Sunday Mercury" Certain
Defamatory Innuendoes.

John Anderson. who is charged with
being the fellow who gets up the
wonder" column in the Sunday Mer-
curry. a sensational publication which
caters particularly to those OF sportive-
ly inclined tastes. was arrested yester-
day on a charge of libel, which was
entered against him in Judge Hoi-
lands court by Mrs. Elizabeth Yaeger
of South Dakota street. The warrant
was issued on Nov. 80, but Anderson
got wind of the fact that the officers
were after him and skipped over into
Jefferson county. 1t was known that
he could not remain away from Suite
for any great length of time, and Con-
stable Coombs quietly waited until he
showed up yesterday, and then arrest
ed him. He was arraigned and entered
a plea of not guilty and his prelimin-
ary examination was set for O'CLOCK
this afternoon. His bonds were hxed
at $780, but he was unable to furnish
sureties in that amount and went to
jail.
1t is expected that some very spicy
testimony will be produced at the ex-
| animation. 1t is alleged that in addf-
| ton to having the below queries pub
lished in the Mercury, Anderson cut
them out and placed them In an envel-
| ope addressed to Mrs. Yaeger and left
| them on her front doorstep. Her hus-
1
some of these envelopes. The COM
| plant in the case is as follows:
| That on or about the 3rd day of Mo-
| vember, 1895, the defendant, John An
| derson, did wilfully and unlawfully and
| feloniously and with the intent to in
| jury one Elizabeth Yaeger, and mali
| ciously publish and procure to be
| published certain libellous writings and
printings impeaching the honesty, vir-
tue and reputation of the said Eliza
beth Yaeger, and thereby to expose her
to public hatred, contempt and ridicule
and to deprive her of her good name
as follows: Publishing and causing to
be inserted in a publication known as
the Sunday Mercury the following
statements and inuendoes, viz:
IF John had not better keep away
from South Dakota street?"
"If the shooting gallery man had not
better come homer"
IF the real estate agent had not bet
ter let Mrs. Y. alone? Look out, or the
| old man will catch on"
''If Mrs. Y. is not afraid her husband
will catch on?" and enclosing th'
above clippings to her and saying
This is what they say about you
please be little careful; people arr
onto you"
Also, 'if the shooting gallery mai
knows what his wife is doing when h
is away? Do you know, Mrs. Y.?'
Said defendant well knowing the sal,
defamatory article and inuendoes to b.
false; to the great damage, scandal an,
disgrace of the said Elizabeth Yaeger

DOG AND GOOSE.
The strange Comradeship That Grew Up
Between Them.

The Strange Comradeship That Grew Up
Between Them.
From Current Literature.
A dog and a goose on one occasion
became fast friends. but the goose
seems to have made the first advance.
II the dog barked. the goose would
cackle and endeavor to bite any per-
son she supposed the dog to be bark
ing at. She would not roost in the
usual way. but ran about the yard
with the dog all night. and even when
he went about the neighborhood the
goose accompanied him, running and
flying in order to keep pace with him.
What is very strange. however. when
the dog was Ill the goose would not
leave him for a single moment. so food
had to be placed in the kennel for both
of them. This affection Is supposed to
have had its origin In the dogs saving
the goose from a fox.
In another case a dog tried to con-
sole herself for the loss of her family
by adopting a brood of ducklings.
When her little ones were taken from
her she was quite disconsolate. until
she fell in with the ducklings. These
she tended in the most affectionate
manner and exhibited the greatest
concern when they naturally took to
the water. When they came to land
the dog seized them in her mouth and
carried them home. Strange to say.
when robbed of her family she took
charge of two cock-chickens, which
she reared with great attention. When
they began to crow she was evidently
much annoyed and endeavored to sup
press their noise.
