Trnnns Arrested.

Officers Smith and Foglesong,
whilo on their usual rounds about
town last night, happened to bo in
the extension near Geo. LOWS
coal yard, whom they heard some
mon talking. They stood and
listened some fifteen or twenty
minutes, and then walked into the
yard and found three hobos who
gave their names as Mike Quinlin,
Ed. Crswoll and Yinson Viscoy.
They wero takon to tho Jail and
locked up.
What's tho sense, or where is the
law that authorizes tho arrest and
detention of tramps, unless COM
plant is made against them by
warrant. 1t costs tho town some-
thing to lock up tramps, and it
certainly has no money in its
treasury to throw away on these
idle vagabonds Whom they COM
nit deprodations it is timo enough
to arrest Thorn.

boon gratified and the satisfaction
of soeing it. now after his long SCR

Taxing Dogs.

We undertook to interview some
of our prominent business mon and
politicians on a "Gonoral Dog Law"
the other day. A few responded
cheerfully and politely; some bust
ness men were afraid to express
themselves for fear of making enc.
mics; tho politician would not talk
upon the subject. This dog ques
ton is worry delicate subject, and
ono that is many fathoms deep.
You can cheat a man in a trade,
steal his horse, pass counterfeit
money upon him, or hold four aces
against his four kings and he may
forgive you. But if you can his
old dog, accuse it of killing sheep,
or tell him it is "no account" you
have made an everlasting enemy OF
that man. If you should be SO an
wise as to kill his dog-lookopt,
and prepare for another world.
Call man bad names and sIander
his family if you will, but don't
tramp on his dogs tail.

tIirIs, Don't Marry Q Han II He DriPkS
Never marry man who has be-
come an habitual drunkard with
the hope of reforming him, for
while it is true that good man
may become better by association
with true minded woman, so also
man with repressed evil tenden-
cies may have them held moro firm,
ly in check by tho wife's restrain
ing influence.
But tho woman who tries to re.
form man who has yielded to tho
evil cravings of his being until he
can no longer control. them, will
find her task of reformation too
much for her patience and power OF
endurance. He will never be fit
member for refined society, and
though he may tell you that by
your help he could become a better
man, depend upon it your influence
now is just as great as if you were
his wife.
And although he may love you
better than any other earthly being,
yet if his appetite for liquor is such
that ho will still visit the den.
Don't marry him thinking you can
reform him. He will deceive you
and you will quite likely find much
time for tears, Weeping over the
ruin of your hopes; over the fallen
tower on which for many weary
months have grown the bitter weeds
of Encouragement.
Thon shun tho bloated places OF
the ono who drinks the poison
dreggs of the wine cup, and thereby
secure for yourself a future of quiet
bliss, instead of spending your tu
ture in q drunkard's howell called
homo dreaming only of pleasures
you can never hope to realize.
