rule wisely and well. They are the
peoples choice as declared at the polls.
The public cares little about the poll

many men in this country seek the

those who do best are pretty apt to get

of every man who wants to see the
city prosper. An opportunity is open
to show good executive talent-that is
all that is needed. The April campaign

withhold applause when the pledge is

RELIEF DOGS.

Canine Red Gross Service i'm the German
Army.
For several years experiments have
been made in the German army in the
training of dogs for service in the hos
pital department Not long ago, SAYS
the Detroit Free Press, the well-known
animal painter, Jean Bungartz, was
commissioned to take up the matter. and
his recent report occasioned high praise
from the emperor and the army The
first important step was the selection
OF breed of dogs possessing all the
qualities necessary for the purpose,
viz: Obedience, watchfulness, intelli-
gence, fidelity and perseverance. These
qualities were found in the Scotch col
he in the highest degree, and this breed
was, therefore, selected by Bungartz.
The equipment of the dog consists of
strong collar with a small leather
poclSetboolS for letters, a small water
proof blanket for his rest at night and
two pockets containing a small sur
geon's outfit, linen, medicines and
small amount of dog biscuit. The en-
tire load is less than ten pounds and
can be easily carried by the dog for
days
His services are most important in
the search for the wounded or dead; he
often brings first help to a soldier
fallen in brush or underbrush and COM
pletely hidden from sight; he makes an
excellent courier, and runs from hos
pital to command or vice versa, faith
fully delivering messages intrusted to
his care as fast as a cavalryman, with
much less danger to both courier and
message. A large red cross marks each
side pocket, and designates his connec-
| ton with the sanitary and relief corps.
lie also carries a small lantern on his
back, to enable the litter bearer 10 fol-

work has been done in the most sub

to the latest scientific principles. In
the center Of the city large tract Of
street is now being torn up for new
horse car tracks, and IL is an instructive
sight to see the fine scale upon which
the work is done. The foundation is at
least foot in depth of the hardest pos
sible mixture of small stones and ce-

The excellent condition of the streets
of Berlin is one of the reasons why the
city has none of those districts which

italian and Spanish cities and some
cases nearer home, suffer in a notable
manner from the congestion of the
poor at certain points, where they live
crowded together under the most I'M

any extent true Of Berlin. There are
districts in the east and north where
the poor live together, but in nothing

will find elsewheres The streets. as al

they are clean. They are pcarlv every
