TRAINING A DOG.
How 30 Bring Puppy Up That il
Intended for shooting.


Never be too familiar with a young
dog He must have a certain respect, not
necessarily a fear of you; but he must
learn to obey. Any intelligent puppy will
learn his name in a few lessons. Once
you have given it to him never change
it, Mind You this-when he has once
recognized you as being his master. his
one idea is to please you and to deserve
a pat on the head and a word of praise.
Never tussle with him with a stick. and
never deceive him under any pretense.
More dogs have been spoiled by their
masters not playing fair with them than
one could reckon Be honest with your
dog, and he will be honest with yon.
IL you possess a gun. and your dog is
of that kind which has Inherited the
scent for game. the first thing to teach
him Is to fetch and caTry-that is, TO re-
trieve-and this without chewing or mu-
tilating the object which he brings. A
way to break a dog OF this Is TO take an
old glove put a few taclSs with. the points
extending outward, and fill It full OF cot
ton. He will find that by picking it UP
gently he can carry it without discomfort,
while If he attempts 10 worry il the eon-
sequences are not agreeable This les
son is much better for him than any
amount of whipping. and he will remeln-
Der 1t much longer.
Ii you wish to shoot over your dog, the
next thing is 20 make him find the bird
To do this. the best way IS to procure
q live quail which can easily be had
from any bird-faneier: put it ia d small
cage as@ show it to the pup. warning
him not TO touch it. Then conceal the
cage in copse of fern or grass asa
bring him carefully in that direction
Never let him nearer than within four or
five feet of 1t; then speak to him en-
couragingly. Under the influence of your
words he will become all attention and
a dog thus properly broken viii never
flush a covey. unless he runs into
them by accident or when he is carried
away by excitement, under which circusli-
stances he will show contrition, y lar

DISASTROUS WRECK.
Railroad Collision Near Roehes-

Destroys Much Property.

ROCHESTER,, N. Y, Aug. %, 1S96.-An
extra edition Of the Democrat and
Chronicle' says most disastrous freight
wreck occurred on the Central-Hudson
railroad one and one-quarter miles east
of F'airport, ten miles from this CITY,
about midnight piling the tracks of that
road with demolished cars and engines
Shortly before midnight a train drawn by
engine 572, standing on track No. 8. wait
ing for another west bound train TO take
water was run into by the Syracuse and
Rochester local, running between Dewitt
and East Rochester, and drawn by engine
81. The head Of train of No. 572 was
the eaboose were in a position to be seen
for a mile down the track.
Engineer Woodford, of the local train
WAS seen at the wreck shortly after the
trains came together. He stated that he
DID net have any signals thrown out
against his train, and that he did net
see the lights on the train pulled by en-
gire No. 5E2 until it was too late to stop
his train. He reversed his engine and
stuck to his post. Engine No. 571 is a
complete wreck, having, telescoped the
caboose and nearly dozen freight cars
loaded with valuable freight In the
caboose Of the standing train We're gev-
eTal OF the crew and their escape from
instant death is miraculous.
The members of the crew who were in
the eaboose of the forward train were
spilled out into the wreckage which IS
scattered all over, tracks i, 2 and 8.
The rear brakeman, named Mitchell, is
severely injured, and like other members
OF the fc naHfV bruised Isnvipa1r
" W9odford was severely shocked by the
crew of the local train were mostly on
deck when the crash came and they were
thrown from the train with great force
The local train consisted of sixty cars,
the contents of the last ten cars were
scattered about in all directions. A car
load Of scaskets, consigned to Crane &
Breed, undertakers of Cincinnati were
nearly all demolished. The wreck caught
fire from the lamps in the caboose and
several cars were destroyed before help
arrived. The head brakeman ran to Fair
port and notified the operator to teIe-
graph to Dewitt for wrecking crew. The
pilot and wooden cross beams of the en-
gille of the local We're burned away when
help arrived. The front of the boiler
was crushed in, the smoke stack torn
off the bell hangers bent, the driving rods
twisted like wire, the cylinder head blow
cut and the machinery was all abolished
Railroad men say the loss will reach
$4,000. 1t could not be ascertained who
was to blame for the accident, but the
engineer of the local will likely be called
upon for an explanation.

NO SILVER FOR HIM
Elected Chairman of a Bryan
Meeting, A1lgeier Makes
a Red-hot Gold
Speech.

Next Time the Popocrats Will See
That Their President is
Orthodox.
GUTENBERG SHAKEN UP


A good story in connection with the
present currency question and political
agitation comes from the wild wastes of
Gutenberg. Last night an effort was
made to organize free silver club at
Days Hotel, Bergenline avenue, Gut
tenberg The rabid and fanatic silverites
who managed the preliminary organiza-
tion of the club thought they had all
the pipes laid and every precaution taken
to make the meeting a bowling success
and to organize club that would sweep
the town for free silver at the fall cleo
tion.
About fifty people attended and it was
decided by mutual consent that Joseph
Allgeier, local feed merchant and
man of some Importance in the COM
munity, should be made chairman. The
committee did not deem it necessary to
get Allgeier's views on the currency ques-
ton In fact nobody had ever heard the
proposed chairman deliver himself of
any sentiments on this much mooted topic.
II was taken for granted, however, that
he was 16 to I man from waybaek, and

things go wrong sometimes and the free
silver cranks found themselves sadly mis-
taken in their man.
The meeting was called to order and
Allgeier was rushed to the chair with
the unanimous consent of the silverites
present.
He called the meeting to order and was
about to proceed with further business
when some one suggested that the
Chairman make Few remarks on the
doctrines of the club.
1t appeared that Allgeier was pust
waiting such a chance, and he arose to
the occasion. For few moments he
talked for silver in the most approved
style, but with a suddenness that took
eyerybody's breath away he changed the
tone of his arguments and boldly de-
clared that ruin stared the town in the
face if 1T voted for free silver.
He went on to show that gold stand
ard was the only one for the prosperity
Of the co lntry, and that the election of
Rryan meant bankruptcy and National
destruction.
The people present were dumbfounded,
and gazed at Mr. Allgeier in open
mouthed arnazement.
Sesae one tried 10 tell him he had his
ideas mixed, but Allgeier. their Chair
man. kept right on.
In no time there was a wild uproar, and
the melting broke up in Wild confusion.
The club was organized, and as the Sill
verftes filed out they looked daggers at
Aligeier. Another meeting will be held
Monday night, but before that time a
caucus will be held to find out if there
are any more gold bugs in the Gutten-
berg silver camp. The doors will be
barred against Angeier. but he says he
don't care, he is right

TERRELL MAY RESIGN.
Story TEsat Onr Minister TO turkey
Is abeus to Give ZIP His Place.


FORT WORTH. Tex, Aug. q, 1S9S.-It
is believed here that A. w Terrell,
United States Minister to Turkey, either
has resigned or soon will place his resig-
nation in the hands of the President and
within two months VIII return to this
country.
This information is said to come direct
from Mrs. Terrell. According to the story,
while the resignation had not been asked
for point blank, Mr. Terrell became satis-
fed It would be acceptable and acted on
the knowledge.
Persons in Fort Worth who are intimate
with the family Of the Minister, and he
has brother living here. are not sur
prised at the reported action. They have
known that there has been friction be-
tween him and the State Department for
some time. This friction resulted from
letters written by Minister Terrell to
friends and relatives in this country, one
of which was to his brother. T. c. Ter

MONTANA NOT SURE FOR SILVER

WASHINGTON. Aug. q, ls96.-A letter
received at Republican Headquarters here
from the Chairman of the Republican
State Central Committee of Montana as
serts that Montana is by means certain
to return a majority in favor Of silver
and that even Mr.. Hartman, who has not
yet been renpnlinated. may have difficulty
in obtaining the endorsement from his
own people. The letter says that while
there is a strong silver sentiment in that
portion of Montana where the large mines
are located, the chief sections of the
State are devoted to agriculture and the
Inhabitants are more interested in pro-
lection for their wool industries than in
free coinage. In the meantime Mr.. Hart
man is stumping the Sixth Minnesota
district where Representative Fowne is
seeking to secure an independent re-.
election to Congress.
