FOUND AFTER ELEVEN DAYS

FOUND AFTER ELEVEN DAYS.
About eleven days ago Beadle
hound, belonging to Mr. John w. WOOD.
disappeared from his residence, on
Dinwiddle street. Every effort was
made to find him. He advertised for
him, but without success. The dog
was given up as gone. The same
day that the dog disappeared home
opposite Mr.. Woods residence was
pulled down and the man hole to the
cistern was left off. There was no wa
ter in the cistern. and had not been
for some time. The dog went over to
where the building was being pulled
down and by some means fell through
the man hole. No one knew any
thing about it until yesterday, when
a whining howl was heard coming
from the cistcrn. An Investigate ton
was made and. to the delight of Mr.
Wood. his lost dog was found. He had
been confined there for eleven days
without food or water and was Sc
weak he could hardly get about. The
dog was taken home by Mr.. Wood and
was properly cared for. In a few days
he will be all right again.
The story seems remarkable, but 1t
is true. and the recovery was by the
increst accident.

Messrs. Openheimer and Klein of pitts
burg, who have opened up the Hotel
Windsor on Main street, promises 70
cause some little deviation from the
perfect harmony that has existed
among city officials generally of late.
James +. Barret, a member of the Citv
Council made the following statement
yesterday: The matter of transfer
ring the license was not brought up
lot consideration at any meeting OF
council, but the transfer was sanction
ed by the Mayor and carried into effect,
irrespective of the authority of that
body. The transferring of licenses lies
as fully In the power of the City Coun-
eli as the granting of licenses. and in
as much as the transfer was made
without the consent of council as a
body, | consider the recent action as
entirely illegal. The articles favoring
the transfer were brought to me for the
purpose of receiving my signature, but
l positively refused to act in the mat
ter until 1t should be presented to coun-
Gil in the proper manner. 1t is my in
tention to lay the matter concerning
the transfer before council at its next
meeting
Another city official stated yesterday
that every member of council with the
exception of Mr.. Barrett, signed the ar
ticles favoring the transfer OF the Ii
cense from j. j. Maui to Messrs. OPEN
helmer and Klein, and that the Mayor
acted only under these conditions.
