Japan Will Prevent Psssilsacs N EorAo.
II 10 probable that the action of the
Japanese government In ordering the de-
ntruction Of the City OF Teckcham. For
mosa, and the removal of all OF Its lnhab-
itants to II new location, Ia probably with
out a precedent In history. The city is
island. and has been frequently subject to
pestilence. with the sacrifice of thousands
Of lives. The phenomenon being called to
the attention OF the government an inves-
tEation WAS ordered by sanitary experts.
who reported that the city was built upon
a swamp and that at certain seasons of
the year poisonous gases issued from the
ground. whereupon an order was issued to
Mr.. Sakurai. the governor. to select a new
location as convenient to the old one as
possible. where the natural conditions
were healthful. A new city was laid out
by experts. and each property holder In
the old one was assigned a site that cor
ut Tackcham. and he was given twelve
months to remove his buildings and be-
longngs.
Sewers. roadways and sidewalks. public
buildings. water works. and all other pub
lie improvements Were laid out by the
pense to the people. but they are required
to pay the cost OF the removal OF their
own property. This Is not so expensive an
undertaking as one might suppose, be-
cause most of the houses and other build
ings In Teckcham as well as In other
cities. are built OF the very lightest wood
EN- material. and Japanese house offers
the advantage OF being taken apart with
out difficulty or injury.
The undertaking IL n notable illustrati ton
OF the enterprise and the wisdom OF the
Japanese government.

HOW FANNY WAS SAVED.
True story of the Rescue OF Pretty
Dog from a Sinking Ship
in Nidocean.

Not many months ago Fanny was
struggling for life in the Atlantic's icy
waters, thousand miles from land,
while Capt. Scroggles, her owner, was
being taken in a life-boat, with his half
clad. half-frozen crew, from their sink
ing steamship
When the captain left the white cliffs
of England on the Dago, bound for
Baltimore the weather was so pleasant
that the dog was a deck passenger"
going from stern to forecastle, and TAX
ing her after-dinner nap in the sun
A January gale struck the ship few
days out, and the force of the wind and
waves opened her seams and caused her
to founder. Before she sank the Aller,
bound for New York, hove in sight and.
answering a signal of distress. sent a
lfe-boat TO the Dago.
Three times the brave German sailors
pulled from ship to ship with their
human freight. Capt Scroggles and his
officers being the last 70 leeye II Is
. rule OF the steamship company which
owns the Aller to save only human life
from wreck What was 90 be done
The boat was dangerously loaded al
ready, and If she were taken aboard
the officer In charge would probably
lose his position.
There was q Yankee seaman on the
Dago, who had made friends with Fan
ny. Give me that rope in the stern,
captain" said he. 81 can rig it so we
can tow her."
As the boat pulled away the dog was
dragged after it by a rope fastened
around her body behind the forepaws.
Half the time buried in the waves. 1t
seemed as If she would be dead before
the long half-mi,e was traversed; but
she never whined, and now and then.
when she was at the surface, the cap
tain could see her paws working like
blades in paddle-wheel to keep her
self ahoat.
Fanny evidently realized that 1t was
life struggle, and tried to aid the men
by taking the line in her teeth when too
much exhausted to use her limbs, This
kept her head above water until she
could regain strength enough TO swim.
At last the ships side was reached.
Just at that moment, however, the rope
slipped and the dog was adrift. Two
of the sailors caught her forepaws as
a wave threw her toward the boat, and
the Alters captain graciously allowed
her to be drawn up in it to the davits,
after the men had scrambled up the
sides with the aid of a rope ladder. She
