Cows for the kIoi.dii.e.
ral.

man in Tacoma is preparing to leave soon for Dawson, and will take 125 cows with him. He will take sled for each COW and make them haul enough provisions for the trip. He already has about third of his herd. and is busy breaking them to work in harness. He expects to get away in few weeks. He is positive it will be a paying venture, us fresh milk is little known article in the Yukon. He has had no trouble so far in breaking his cattle, and talks as though it will be no extraordinary sight to see 125 cows vending their way along the mountain trails, drawing sleds laden with hay and grain. He will take them down the Yukoni in boats, and expects to be at the lakes as soon as the ice breaks. He has been over the ground, and feels confident of success.

JUSTICE IS NOT ALWAYS BLIND
X SoIomOn-Like Decision by u Penn syivnnia MnGistrate over
 Dog.

Squire Henry Grelle, of Beltzhoover, Pa, does not like lawyers He believes that they stir up too much trouble by dragging musty old books into his of flee and insisting that he follow the precedents they dig from them. He has the full approval of his constitu- ents. His justice is the sort that is equitable between man and man, and not that misnamed stuff that depends on the technicalities of law books for standard.
 One of Squire Grelle's early cases was brought against a friend of his, who was accused of cruelty to animals. The man had been bothered by vicious dog, and he shot at it. The bullet cut piece off its tail, but did no other harm. The trial attracted large crowd. There was conflicting evidence as to the dog. Some of the witnesses said it was a gentle animal and others declared that it ought to be killed.
 ''I will reserf my decision until next weeg," said the squire, after he had heard the testimony.
 He was not satisfied as to the dog, and, while he had the case under con- sideration, he made some inquiries in the neighborhood. He learned that the dog was bad. But the maiming of it by depriying it of part of it's tail was undoubtedly a cruel act, and he did not see how he could get over that, even to favor his friend.
 When the day came for him to give his decision, it was evident to the crowd that had gathered in his office that he had made up his mind. He called the defendant up.
 You admit shooting this dog" he asked.
 "Yes, do, squire, but the dog is"
 Dot will do; sid down." And he called the owner of the dog forward.
 Your dog is bad dog" he said to him.
 No, he isn't, squire" said the man; Ines as gentle as"
 Dot will do. Sid down. I haf my mind made up. fine de defendant one dollar and costs for shooting dot dog
 There was applause from the side of the room on which the friends of the dog were gathered. Order. Order!" commanded the squire. II haf not vinished. 1 will fine de defendant one dollar and gosts for shooting dot dog, but I will gif him cue more shot at de dog Pittsburgh Times.

How to Reach Two Famous Resorts.

An Outing Hint from Outing"
 Fast, safe, superbly equipped and most carefully governed, one need not wonder at the great popularity of the New York Central. No other line affords such facili. ties for through travel between the East and the West as this wonderful fourtrack s-Js- tenn In the possession of the Grand CentrA Station, located in the heart of New York City, and within trihing distances of all first-class hotels, this railway offers greater advantages than competing lines. Spring, summer, autumn and winter, 1t has attrac- tions irresistible. The great Northern VII. derness, the playground of the State, now beckons its thousands. As autumn falls, Americas scenic masterpiece, fhrfamed Niagara, will claim its annual hossNof pil. grims with its majestic power, the fierce turmoil of the Whirlpool and all the pie turesque surroundings, the awesome Cave of the Winds and several other minor attrac- tions of the vicinity. And when winter what seems a fairylanS of marvellous fro.t dressings, of icy forts and snowy palaces; of gleaming crystal prison barriers vainly striving to bind the roaring, foaming plunge of water-will present a spectacle of weird, mysterious beauty which is not duplicated in the world.--Outing.
