ENGLISH RAILWAY DOGS.
They Are Used for Collecting Money for
Charitable Purposes.

Charitable Purposes.
From the London Chronicle.
Railway dogs-those, that is to say,
that serve as collecting agents for the
various charities-,are. likely to receive
additional attention from travellers, af-
ter her majesty's kindly notice of Tim,
one of their number, at Paddington on
Monday There are still several collect
ing dogs on the various lines about the
country, though the more famous of
them are no more. One of the best
known of these dead collectors was
Help-a collie trained by a guard on
the Brighton line II am Help, the rail
way dog of England read an inscrip-
ton on a silver medal attached to his
collar-"traveling agent for the or
phans of railway men who are killed on
duty. MY office is at No. 65 Colebrooke
Row. London, where subscriptions will
be thankfully received and duly ac-
kirowledged." This canine collector got
no less than thousand pounds ster-
ling during his charitable career. He
is to be seen to-day at Brighton station
preserved under glass jar.
But perhaps the prince of railway
dogs, though not engaged in collecting,
was Snatch. He was a vagrant Cock
ney cur, and was rescued from the loaf
ers about the Euston terminus by one
of the drivers of the London & North
western company. Snatch always ac.
companied his master on the footplate
of the engine. and was with him in a
collision. when the latter was killed.
Snatch was eventually run over in the
London streets by cab. But he lives
in sympathetic picture by Harrison
Weir Another well known railway
dog was Jack, who was quite an insti-
tuition at the Central station, Derby.
He was very active, smooth coated
terrier, and lived in the porters' room
He could distinguish a Midland from a
London & Northwestern or a North
Staffordshire train, and discriminate
between the servants of the three COM
panies. He was fond of taking trips
by train, but is said to have always
found his way back to Derby

LUNCH COUNTER ROMANCE.
He Ate Pan Roasts Each Day. but De.
ceived the Girl Cruelty.


From the Kansas City Independent
It's all a mistake to think that us
girls at the quick lunch counter don't
have our romances same's folks in the
higher walks of life, for while we may
look frozen faced it amt nuthin but
bluff, an down in our hearts we are
every bit as susceptible to the tender
passion as any of the high born danes
Yes, you're right; /, too, nave known
what love is and felt it tell me that
there were other things in life than
Brown the wheats;' and Draw one!
but as Miss Libby has SO beautifully
said in Fair but False'-the cup was
not for my lips.
He came in one day and ordered
pan roast at 25 cents a throw. NOW,
only the real things eat pan roasts, and
/ took notice of him right away. He
came in regular ev'ry noon, and l kinder
got to watchn' for him. After he'd
been comm for some time We struck up
conversation, an he asked me how l
like Lost in London, an l told him L
didn't like sensational plays, an that
real dramas like East Lynne was more
my style, an he said / was girl of
consid able mind.
Il knew he loved me, for once I only
put four oysters in his pan roast stead
of six an he never even noticed it. AS
TOR me, own up to SaVHh the ldltSst
oysters for him an takin' special pains
with the roast. Things went on that
way for two months was in dream
then came the cruel awakenin''
"Beezie O'Brien came here to take
direction of the pies-quite a promotion
for Beezie for she'd been workin' down
at Jones, an awful cheap joint. That's
Beetle over there with the red hair an
freckles, but don't mention freckles,
cause she's mortal sensitive. Well, me
and Beetle was chinin' when in walked
me pan roast friend. The minute he
set eyes on Beetle he turned pale as
death an shot out the door. All, l can
see his fact yet-despair and agony was
wrote upon it.
Then the truth came out. Beetle
gave it away that he was a. steady GUS
toner at Jones' mernin' an evenin'.
where he took nothin' but coffee an
sinkers at cents a throw, an that the
pan roast deal wasn't nothin' but a
bluff he chucked to try an win me
affections. Yes; I've torn his image
out of me heart. but the scars still
there.
''Ah, me-" YEARLY sighed the quick
lunch girl as she made out my check,
Its mighty hard to find real gent
nowadays"

ARMED NEGROES KILLED
In a Clash Between Miners in
Alabama.
THE KNIGHTS OF AFRICA
They Were Armed to Prevent the Cap
turs of Negro Brute Who Had
Assaulted Woman-Are
Talking of Revenge.

Birmingham, Ala, June 27.-Three ne.
groes are dead and one is not expected
to live until morning as a result Of a
riot between the white negroe min
ers at the iron mines, near Cardiff, in
Jefferson county.
The dead are:
Ed ELLIS.
JIM DILL.
ADAM SAMUEL.
Wounded
Rudolph Williams. George Thomas,
MORALLY.
The two races came to clash in the
late afternoon in Glasgow hollow,
where the negroes had congregated,
armed with Winchesters. A white man
passing along the road was held up
and besides being abused, was roughly
handled. This news soon spread, and
an armed body of white miners moved
toward the hollow. 1t is supposed they
went around by a circuitous route in
the mountains and came upon the ne
groes unexpectedly. Ed. Ellis, armed
with Winchester and a Colts revolv-
er, fell at the first fire. A rifle bullet did
the work. There was another velley,
and four other negroes fell. Jim Dill
and Adam Samuels died in a few min
utes after being removed to a negro
house. George .Thomas was shot
through the abdomen with a Winches-
ter bullet. He is not expected to re-
cover. Rudolph Williams will live.
The trouble started yesterday when
1t was thought that John Shepperd,
who last Wednesday assaulted Mrs.
Monroe Jones near Corona, was in that
community. The negroes armed them
selves to prevent his capture Both
sides were aroused and only the timely
arrival of the sheriff's posse prevented
an outbreak. This morning the negro
miners held mass meeting and re-
fused to work. They all belong to a
secret organization known as the
knights of Africa" or the '.Mysteri-
GUS Men" They keep rifles and ammu-
milton on hand at all times. 1t was in
the afternoon that they gathered in
Glasgow hollow, although with what
intention is not known
influential citizens say that the ring
leaders are now out of the way, and
they hope to manage the other negroes
Shortly after the riot, Sheriff O'Brien
left here with a hundred armed men.
He now has the situation in hand for
the time being, although late reports
say the situation is extremely critical
and that the negroes are talking of
avenging the death of their leaders.
Sherlr O'Brien who is now at Bloss-
burg, has received a message from Ad-
amsville, three miles from that place,
eshibS LOT projection. An armed body
OF negroes is gathered in the noun
tainS there.
A special from Cardiff says: Few
men are asleep here tonight. Each side
is expecting an attack. The trouble
really started last night, when a body
or white men fired on some negro
shacks. One negro was shot in the leg
and as result the negroes were sullen
and refused to go to work to-day. A
private dispatch received in Birming-
ham tonight states that the dead and
wounded negroes were shot in the back.

remained there for several hours, or
until at least he had enough sleep to
last him until he had found better
