Beside His Dead NJ ster.

without a drop of water or a morsel
of food a dead mans pet dog kept
watch for six days by his body in
Orange valley, New Jersey. recently.
The man was Paul Bassett, a halter.
who lived like a hermit on Tompkins
street, always stunning the society of
other people and having for sole COM
panion a little mongrel dog. He kept
entirely TO himself. and the fact of his
absence, either around his home or at
work was to all the world such an I'M
important matter that for months IL
might have remained unnoticed. He
had only his dog to care for him. He
cared for nothing else.
one morning a neighbor named Julia
Edwards heard the heart-breaking la
mentations and she called assistance
TO investigate. on entering Bassett's
room a CHASTITY spectacle was seen.
Upon the squalid bed lay the body of
the man, in such a state that IL was
readily seen that he must have been
dead week. by his side lay the
shaggy dog. moaning piteously. and
trying with his canine caresses TO
rouse his master back to life. BY star
walton reduced almost to skin and
bones. so feeble that IL could hardly
stand, the mouth parched and shriv-
eled by thirst. the poor brute had lin
rered by the remains of its only friend
silently suffering until the pangs of
hunger had forced from IL the feeble
howls that had led To the discovery.

large number of witnesses was exam

its case in strong manner. Before
the evidence was all in. 1t became clear
that Miller would be discharged. This
was the case, for Justices Woodman-

not strong enough to warrant the hold

was accordingly released

HE'LL TRY AGAIN.
Jim BailIie II turns From Ontario with
out "a Bride.

Missoula. Feb. 27.-James Baillie re-
turned yesterday from a two-months
visit with his family in Ontario and will
resume his run on the west end Sunday.
Mr.. Baillie reports a pleasant visit at his
old home and lots of sport. The best fun
he had was at a horse race on the ice
lie had a straight tip and won pile of
money. But sporting life does not agree
with him and he got homesick for his
seat in the cab on No. !. So he packed
his grip and came home. Contrary TO the
expectations OF his Missoula friends, he
did not bring back a bride and there is
much disappointment among the railroad
men here. But 1t is rumored that the pros.
poets are good and that when Jim goes
East the next time he will not come back
nlnne.
