~ Dogs DUTY CAREFULLY DONE
For over year the dog motor on the
hill back of Mill Valley has been operated
by Il dog named Gyp, and She really likes
the work and knows more about pump.
ing water than half of the men in the
State. When Gyp was first put into the
machine she knew Just what she had to
do and started in at Il great rate. She
ran so fast that -shc would have fallen
from exhaustion had she not been lifted
out. But rs she has grown older at the
business she has learned better, but she
likes the work much rs when She
started. When Gyp first started in to
pump water she did not know when to
stop. She pumped and pumped until the
tank ran over all the time. In Il few
weeks, though, she was taught that all
she was expected TO do was to keep the
tank full, and now. she doesn't do any
more.
When Gyp is taken TO the..motor in the
morning, She first looks into the trough
10 see how much it lacks of being full.
She then works accordingly, and when
she thinks that she has done enough runs
out and takes a look at it. If it-is full
she lies down and rests, and if there is
still n few inches remaining4es she start $ in
again and does not stop until the trough
is running over.
All the water Gyp pumps is for-.t
cattle to drink. 1t flows directl, from
the well into the drinking trough, so that
they can get it without trouble. Gyp
knows as soon as she sees band of steers
making for the trough what they are
AFTER and she starts in pumping SO as to
keep them from emptying it. Her idea
seems to keep the trough full. In fact
she is unable to rest unless she knows it
is in that condition. Gyp has to work
hard to do her work. Each stroke of the
pump brings up about a quart of water,
and she has TO make about six jumps to
do it, but when she feels like working
nothing stops her, and the ,pump--rlakes

GRATITUDE IN TIGERS.
Operator on Diseased Paw is First
Hated, Then Loved.

Hated, Then Loved.
Apropos OF how Wallace, one of the
iirecest lions ut the New York Zoo, had II
decayed tooth extracted, the Pail Mall
Gazette recalls--a more difficult operation
which was successfully performed in the
Geological Gardens, Dublin, Il few years
ago. One of the finest tigers in the col
lection was threatened with gangrene in
its paw--the claw having become dis
torted and grown into the foot. The Rev.
Samuel HaughtOn, NJ. D., senior fellow
of Trinity College, Dublin, and IL we'll
known parsonage in the Irish metropolis,
undertook to perform the dangerous eX.
pertinent of operating on the paw.
The mate of the tiger was first secured
IN side den. y net was thrown over
the tigcr.and he was drawn forward to
the door of the cage. Four stout keepers
then held the feet of the struggling ami
mai while Professor Haughton cut away
the diseased claw. The suffering beast
furiously endeavored to get mt him dur
ing the operation, but the rage of the
tigress looking on through the bars of
the side den was much more terrible
She reared and flung herself violently
again and again against the barriers in
her mad desire to go to the rescue of her
mate.
When the tigress was admitted to the
cage after the wound of her mate had
been dressed and the net removed, she
turned up the paw and examined it with
touching solicitude, and then licked her
mate. as cat licks it's kittens, to soothe
him, purring softly the while. But per-
haps the most extraordinary part of the
affair was the sequel. y week later Pro-
fessor Haughton was again ut the Zoo to
sec how his patient was..going on. When
the animal espied him he began to pur
like cat, allowing him to examine his
paw, and seemed pleased that he should
do So Indeed, for years aftcrward the
tiger and tigress showed themselves most
friendly and grateful to Professor Haugh-

The rights of the Potomac Light and

1t was, however, learned. later that the

The discussion rheu turned on the rights

all the rights and privileges of the resi-
dents of Washington, as far rs pa ying taxes
were concerned, but no power to protest
against the erection of trolley poles. The
opinion was advanced that if they were
to be treated as residents OF the county
then they ought to be allowed a county
government, instead of being ruled by the
officers of the city.

dents of the county and not of the city has

The central committee is now composed OF
one member from each association. On
motion the number was increased to three

Returning TO the subject OF the erection
OF the trolley poles, the secretary was

UNHEATED PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
Comm Issioper Ross Directs an In
quiry Into the Complaints.

The attention uf Commissioner Ross was
called yesterday afternoon to the complaint
that the schools are not properly heated
and pupils, IN some cases, are Obliged to
sit all day long with overcoats on and In
others are sent home.
THAT report from the Adams school is
a new thing" he said. "of course we do
not build here in Washington so as TO afford
ample protection from the cold. We pro
vide only against ordinary weather.
''As result, many houses, including hotels
and public buildings, are sometimes hard
to heat. We have no double windows here
as III New England and the cold wind finds
its way through. However, this is a mat
ter that needs looking into.''
Accordingly, lie called Mr.. Nye, his pri-
vate secretary, and asked him to write
to Supervising Principal Clark, who looks
after the Adams building, and direct his
attention 10 tie complaint, with n sug-
gestion that everything possible ought to
be done TO prevent the recurrence OF such
conditions.

Chicago Making an Effort to Capture 1t
A Big AFFAIR.
Chicago is out for the Peoples party
National convention. The business men
Of the city will. it is believed, raise in
the neighborhOOd of $4,000 to bring
the convention thitherward. 1t is no
longer a secret that the Populist con-
vention will be the largest ma
tional gathering of the year. Quiet but
determined organization has been go
ing on in the ranks Of that party for four
years and it now has O superb working
force in every precinct in the union!
The Popnlists will be we'll prepared
for the coming campaign, at least so far
as organization is concerned. :, By unit
Ing with the silver party, which in
cludes all. the silver men of thejtwo old
parties. CHE United States senate has
a. free silver majority; the house has
almost as many silver men as goldites)y
the POpulists hope to elect their presi-
dent,in November. All the silver forces
meet at Washington on JANUARY 90
They will call convention TO meet
at the same place and date as the Pop
ulists. The'two conventions will pfoba-
bly, agree upon candidates for president,
vice president and platform. In all
other matters the Populists will be the
dictators and the powerful state, dis
trict, county, town and precinct organi-
cations of the party, from Maine to
Mexico, will have charge of the cam
paign. Wherever there will be fusion
with the Democrats or Republicans the
Populist organization will have charge
of the battle that ensues. The old
party organization will, however, re-
main an auxiliary force The voting
force Of the Populists exceeds $500, 900.
The Republicans have about 100000
voters Including silyerites) and the
Democrats about 100000 including
silverites). These figures are from 1892.
The great questions with the Populists
are ~ How many Silverite votes were
cast for the Republicans in 1892? co
How many were east for the Demo-
Gratis the same year? 90 If all go with
the Populists this year win the influx
