THIS DOG DESERVES TO LIVE.
He Disarms a Policeman Who was
Sent to Kill Him.


Policeman Glenn had an encounter
with big dog near lronville, O., the
other day. The animal was getting to
be somewhat ill-tempered and parents
were afraid it might bite their children
as they passed the house on their way to
school. Complaints were lodged at the
police station, and Officer Glenn was de-
tailed with double-barreled shotgun to
shoot the animal.
The officer reached the house which
sheltered the dog and entered the yard,
keeping a sharp lookout for the ferocious
beast. The dog spied the officer before
the patrolman got peep at him. The
animal seemed to divine what the pO-
liceman was there for and that he had
designs on his life. The dog appeared to
fully understand the danger of the gun
the officer carried, and instead Of rush
ing out in front of the policeman, as had
been the dog 5 usual practice, the animal
took circle round the house, taking
good care to keep out of the officers
sight. In turning the corners the dog
would peer around them both ways to
see that the coast was clear The dog
kept getting closer and closer to the po-
hcemans heels, and at Il spot where a
favorable opportunity presented itself the
big animal bounced on the officers back
with such force as to throw him headlOnH
to the ground.
The dog grabbed the officer over the
breast and shook him so hard that he
dropped his gun. Then the dog grabbed
him by the legs and gave him another
shaking, but in all the shakings the pa
trolman got, no blood was drawn The
dog then picked up the gun and trotted
away with it in his mouth in the direc-
ton of the river, and it is believed the
animal dropped It into the Maumee The
dog has been taking Il vacation since the

QUEEREST PEARL FOUND,
1t was the Exact Shape of the Torso
of a Man.

\ unique and beautiful gift was pre-
sentcd to Louis MY. Of France by a
Gcnogse, Gianetino Sameria. 1t was a
pearl weighing Il hundred grains, and
had been brought from the Indies by one
Of this gcntlcmau'S relatives. But the
most striking part of the matter was not
its weight, but its form. 1t was the eX-
act shape of the torso Of a man from
the neck to the knees. Sameria had the
pearl mounted in 50 artistic manner
that 1t WAS the wonder of the French
court. The pearl was utilized for the
body of an armed warrior. The head
and arms were of hammered gold, tackled
TO the pearl by gold nails. The casquc
and plumuS were also made of gold and
set with diamonds. The cloak and sash
wcr Of gold enamcled i'll blue with gold
tlcur-de-lIS scattered over it; the legs
from the knees down were of gold; the
lance was of gold with a single diamond
for its head shaped to Il point. Three
large diamonds form a perfect tieur-de-
lis, and are SUrmOuntcd by Il gold crown,
set with diamonds, having a small 1eur-
dc-iis on top. An angel, also made of
hammered gold and carrying trumpet
in one hand, supports the large teur-dc-
lis and crown with the other.
The trophies lying on the pedestal are
a drum set with diamonds, curaSs,

BIC SCHEMES IN MIND
Improvements Planned by the
Rocky Mountain Co.
INCREASE OF THE STOCK
Completion of the Line to Denver-One
Thousand Miles Through the Wilder
ness-Buildings to Be Erected at
Missoula and Great Falls.

An increase of the capital stock of
the Rocky Mountain Bell Telephone
company from $4,000 900 to 100000 or
$2,500,000, and the sale of from 100000
to 100000 worth of stock to push i'm
provements next year, will be one Of
the first results of President George Y.
Wallace's visit to the East, says the
Salt Lake Herald. When seen at his
home last evening he said:
Yes, my visit East had to do with
telephone improvements. We have big
schemes in mind, but we need money to
carry them out-from $4,000 to 100000
for the work in view for next year. To
secure this money we will increase the
900 or $780, 0O-it is now 100000; we
will then sell from 100000 to 100000
worth of the new stock and in that way
secure a working capital.
my trip East assured me that there
would be no trouble in selling the stock
in the East to present stockholders. The
company is paying its dividends regu-
larly and all stockholders are perfectly
satisfied with the way the business is
conducted and with the outlook for the
future. A meeting of the directors will
be called in Salt Lake within the next
! anticipate no opposition to the propo-
sition."
Speaking Of the proposed improve
ments for next year, Mr.. Wallace said:
The most important work will be the
completion of the line to Denver, with
exchanges at Evanston, Green River,
Rock Springs and Rawlins I expect to
talk over the phone with Denver inside
of IL months. Then north Of Rawlins
there is great country without rail-
roads, mails or telegraph. We shall in
wade that country, although we must
build 100 miles through the wilderness.
'On the line from Rawlins to Lara
ME we leave the railroad and strike
into the Grand Encampment country,

gions of the West: South of Salt Lake

Sewer and Beaver counties, striking

oche and other points. Scattered all
over this region are towns like Nephi
and Brigham that are demanding tele-
phone exchanges, and very many
smaller places are demanding telephone
communication.
mands, but the company feels that the
conditions justify the expenditure, and
this is the consideration that leads to
the increase of the capital stock. Then
we purpose to erect buildings at Mis-
soula and Great Falls in Montana

at cost of $4,000 each. We will also
put in at Boise a new switchboard. the

took Clarks place, made the touch
down and Bettison kicked the goal.
Score: West Point H. Annapolis 0.
The army started her line-bucking
work again and did as she had done
few moments previous, carrying the
ball from midfield to, and over the
navy's goal line without losing it or
being stopped in her progress. Rock
well also made this touchdown, but
Bettison failed to kick a difficult goal.
Score: West Point II, Annapolis 0.
When the play was resumed the ball
was carried to the armys 16-yard line
by fine kick, which resulted in touch
back for the middies and an exchange
of punts.
Then the navy carried the pigskin
to the 1O-yard line, where it was lost
to the army on downs, but was imme
diately regained on off-side plays.
On four scrimmages, the sailors took
the ball to the army's two-yard mark,
and on the next lineup it was sent
over the line for the middies' touch
down. The goal was a difficult one and
Workman failed to make it.
The game ended few minutes later

THE PHILIPPINE CAMPAIGN.
Report of General Otis Made Public by
the Department..

Report of General Otis Made Public by
the Department..
Washington, Dec. 1.-The report of
General Otis on the operations in the
Philippines UP to Aug. 81, last, has been
made public by the war department. 1t
is volume of 273 pages, with an ap-
pendix Of minor reports almost as large.
One Of the most interesting features is
the immense amount of detail involved
in General Otis administration of the
affairs Of the island.
General Otis throws some light on his
Chinese exclusion act, declaring it a
matter of public policy. He goes at
some length into the racial differences
between the Filipinos and Chinese, ex-
planning that strong prejudice against
the Chinese prevailed among the ma
tives because of the success and ut-
scrupulous doings of Chinese in all
trade matters. General Otis says that
in view of the race hatred between the
Cinnamon and natives, as well as the
factional differences among the China
men themselves, which sometimes
broke out into riot and bloodshed, he
deemed it expedient to apply the Amer
This was done, and arrangements have
been made for identifying such China
men that have receipts of prior resi-
dence, so& that unnecessary hardship
may not be worked.
The correspondence between General
Otis and Aguinaldo before the outbreak
of active hostilities receives much space
and more is taken up with the detailed
accounts of the various engagements.
In connection with the Filipino uprising
in the suburbs Of Manila on the night CT
Feb. 2. General Otis prints the transla-
ton of one of Aguinaldo's proclama-
tons which melted this demonstration.
The paper was discovered on the 18TH
and the plans of the insurgents were
checkmated. 1t called for the assem-
bling of the Manila military in the rear
of the American outposts. At the sound
of attack from the outside. the insur-
gents We're to fall III and butcher the
whole of the foreign population. re-
specting but the native Filipino fami-
lies. All the prisoners were to be re-
leased and armed to assist in the mas
sacre. The plan was successful in so
far as about 1000 armed insurgents as
sembled behind the American line. In
the fight of that night and the following
day about 800 of these were killed.
General Otis relates infinitely the diff
ficulties encountered in dealing with
the foreign merchants whose business
was interfered with by the war. the
outlining of plans of revenues and Gus
toms, the negotiations with the sultan
of Sulu, from whom he says General
Bates secured more concessions in a
month than Spain had been able to SC
cure in 800 years, the institution OF

schools and caring for a large number
of prisoners, both Spanish and native.

Otis says that II may prove fortunate
that Aguinaldo's instruction was not
stamped out instantly upon it's incep-
ton, He saws that the natives through
out the island have peacefully and even
gladly accepted American occupation
of their towns and that they have
learned by experience that the insur-
gents have made a specially of muir
der, outrage and robbery under the
guise of establishing free and indie
pendent government. They have had
a chance upon the withdrawing of the
American troops to see the difference
between the American and native gov
eminent and his opinion is that they
will gladly submit to the former as
soon as they can be protected from the
latter. A column of 5000 troops, he
says, could at any time during the in
surrection have marched from one ED
of the island to the other. without en-
countering serious difficulties But the
insurgents would inevitably have closed
in behind them as soon as they passed,
showing the necessity of having suffi-
cient troops to hold the country after
it had been captured
General Otis dWells upon the neces-
sity of establishing a good school sys-
tenn and says that the native popula-
tion is very insistent upon the divorce
Of the schools from clerical control.
This was promised by the Spanish gov
eminent during the last instruction,
but the archbishop of Manila has pro-
tested against its being carried out.
General Otis says finally that the in
surgents are duped by their leaders as
to the political situation and that the
tendency all along has been to hold
out until the assembling of congress,
when the views of the anti-expansion
party, whose literature has been ex
tensively circulated in the islands,
would be sure to prevail.

MONEY IN EMPTY BOTTLES.
They Are Gathered Up and Sold for
Goodly Price.

GDod1y Price.
From the Philadelphia Inquirer
Very few people are aware of the i'm
mense profits to be accrued in the gather
ing, handling and selling of old glass bot
ties. The traffic is a large one, and by
following it closely several devotees of
the calling have amassed comfortable
fortunes. This is particularly true of ono
old man, who is well known down town.
and who has been gathering old bottles
for 40 years. He is easily worth over half
a million and to-day works just as hard
as he did when first building up his bust
ness The old fellow drives his own wagon
and there is hardly a club steward
in town who has not done business with
him.
Bottles from this source must be paid
for of course, and this takes away a good
portion of the profit. The real income Is
derived from the bottles found in back
yards and back alleys. and from those
given by housekeepers who do not know
or else do not care for their value In
the summer, when glass factories are
closed, there is always a strong demand
for old bottles from all sources. and the
person who owns them can charge his
own price. In the cleaning and sorting
of them a great many persons are en-
ployed and they all make good wages.
