hARB0RED A MAD DOG.
Peculiar Experience a Pittsburg Man
Had with the Animal.

Pittsburg, April 15.-The Chronicle
Telegraph says: Mr.. and Mrs. J. j..
Mccormick, of Bellevue, had rather
remarkable experience with mad dog
last Sunday. on returning from
church, Mrs Mccormick observed a lit
tie yellow dog rolling in the mud in
the gutter on Sherman avenue, near
her home. A gentleman whom she
does not know passed along the street
about the same time and she called
his attention to 1t.
He picked it up and said that 1t had a
broken leg. He looked carefully
again, and decided that II had a brok-
en- back. Mrs. Mccormick went nome
and told her husband about 1t, woman
like, and took compassion on the dog,
and Mr.. Mccormick took a basket and
went after it. The dog was taken into
the cellar and Mr.. Mccormick secured
some warm water, washed 1t nicely,
and then gave /; some milk to drink.
He left the dog and -ent upstairs,
but returned an hour cr ~ afterward
to discover that the brute ~as running
around down in the cellar at a lively
rate, frothing at the mouth and snap
ping just as any mad dog does.
Mr.. Mccormick, as soon as he saw
the situation, knew that the cur was
made. He went after Mark Magill a
neighbor, who brought his revolver
and shot the dog after it had been driv-
EN- out of the cellar. The, dog belonged
to Mrs. Rose Langfitt, who also resides
on Sherman avenue. She put it out of
the house last Sunday morning when
she saw it acting strangely. AS far as
known the dog did not bite anyone, but
it may have bitten other dogs.

CHIPPlE LEGALLY DEFINED.
Singular Lawsuit Brought Before the
Berks County Court.

Reading. April 15.-"A chippie' is a
young girl who firts and attracts at
tention, but the terms does not neces-
sarily imply an immoral character"
This is the definition given by ex-Chief
of Police Cullen, during the trial of a
singular suit for $4,000 damages which
was heard before the Berks county
court.
The plaintiff was Miss Maggie Slich-
ter, a brunette of about % summers.
The defendant was Mrs. Frank p. Es-
terly, wife of the landlord of the Black
Bear Inn, a hotel situated about two
miles below this city. The allegations
were that on the evening of oct. 30,
1894, while the plaintiff was at the
Black Bear Inn, the defendant referred
to her in anything but polite terms,
and among other things suggested that
she was a "chippie."

THIS is A FUNNY STORY.
But 1t Might Have Been Mighty Se-
TiOus One.

One of the Moosic Powder company's
big delivery wagons to which was at
tached a double team of mules got
away going down the hill on North
Main avenue, near Trips crossing yes
terday afternoon, and at the foot of the
hill toppled over an eight-foot embank-
ment at the right side of the road,
tangling up the wagon and mules and
scattering the contents of the wagon in
every direction.
People living in the neighborhood and
other teamsters who happened by came
to the assistance of the powder wagon
driver and helped him untangle the
badly miXed-up mules, harness and
wagon and after getting this done
started to reloading the wagon.
This went well enough till one of the
helpers discovered in the heap on the
ground two big boxes labelled "dyna-
mite" When they managed to catch
their breath they bid hasty adeu to
the powder man and left him to reload
his wagon as best he could. Some of
them are shivering yet, report has it.
