North Dakota regiment a nice little
send off in his official report to Gen.
Otis and praises the boys for the gal
liant work they have done. Gu,
North Dakota boys are not tin
soldiers and when there is any work
for them to do they can be found
right at front. North Dakota is
proud of its volunteers and the offic-

. A large Newfoundland dog named
Dewey, owned by n family in Brook
Ign, is declared to have committed
suicide. Owing 10 the warm weather
that prevailed the head of the family
had the dogs hair cut very short-so
short, in fact, that his skin could be
seen through what little remained.
When the operation was completed a
homelier dog could hardly be imagined.
His large feet and head, in contrast
with his long, lean legs and body,
made a laughable appearance.
Before his hair was cut Dewey was
the leader of all the dogs in the
neighborhood, but after the clipping,
the moment he saw one OF his former
chums, he would put his tail between
his legs and sneak away az fast as his
big feet and long legs could carry
him. re appeared to he so ashamed
of himself that when anybody looked
at him he would stink away, and no
amount of coazing could bring him
back.
The humiliation seemed to worry
him so much that one night he was
seen deliberately to lay himself
down in front OF n fast moving
trolley car, and before the motorman
could check the speed of the car
Dewey was dead. New York Sun.

4 Satisfactory Sentence,

Your worship" said the willy
solicitor, who was defending the stall
wart prisoner in the dock, 'you can
not possibly convict my client of
HOUSEKEEPING. I submit, sir, with
all Difference, that neither morally
nor legally can you convict him. /
will tell you why.
'Mr, Skies, here, as the evidence
clearly proves. did not break into
any house Mt all. He found the parlor
window open, as the witnesses admit.
and all he did was to put in his right
arm and remove sorue unimportant
articles. Now, sir, Mr.. Skies arm is
not he himself, and / fail 10 see how
you can punish the whole individual
for an cfience committed by only one
Of his limbs.
Very well, sir, said the cautious
Solomon OF The bench, 81 have heard
of similar defence before to-day, so
| find the prisoners arm guilty, and
sentence it TO six months imprison-
meut The gentleman himself can
accompany it or not, as he chooses.
Mr.. Clerk read the sentence"
Then Mr.. Skies smiled fourteen
inch smile, and the plan of the dc
fence became apparent, as he quietly
proceeded TO unscrew his guilty cork
arm, md leave it in the custody OF
the court .-Tit-Bits.

Away off IN far corner of the IN.
used part of the cemetery was an en-.
closure about seventy-fvo feet square
and fifty feet deep, with CHASTITY skulls
and bones in all conditions of preser.
Vation, and piles of burial cases of all
degrees, from a costly casket down to
ascracker-box or an oil can. This is
the Inhuman manner of disposing OF
the bodies buried in a plot upon which
the rental is not renewed every three
years. There is ample room that is
unused, so it is not the lack of space
that causes the disturbing Of the rest
Of the dead; it must be merely for
gain for the cemetery corporation In
many cases the bodies of the poor are
never buried at all, but at one side OF
the cemetery is n building, called the
"dead-hOusc, IN which arrangements
are made for burning the bodies with
lime until there is nothing LEFT but the
bones, which are then thrown into
this pit Thousands upon thousands
