'I wonder who christens all these
dogs" remarked the License Collectors S
deputy YEARLY, as he entered for the
thousandth and odd time the name, ad-
dress and full particulars Of two-dol-
lar canine in the register.
There was a long string of people of all
sorts and conditions waiting to contri-
butte 81 to the city treasury. merely to
secure their pet dogs against the pre-
datory poundman. Some of them, we'll
dressed ladies, carried Fido or Jip, or
whatever its name might be, under
their arms, evidently under the impress
sion that it is necessary to produce
your dog in order to register it. The
men, being more practical, for the most
part left their dogs at home, and the
work Of registration went merrlly on.
A roughly dressed, hOrsey looking
youth, with peculiarly stupid face
blocks the way for ten minutes. He
was sent by his employer the day be-
fore to register two dogs, and in some
unaccountable manner gave the names
of two wrong animals.
DO please alter the papers, he
pleads, with tears in his eyes, "or Ill
lose my job if you don't"
The request is altogether irregular, 1t
involves the erasure of several lines on
the neatly kept register; but at last.
out of sheer pity for the distressed
youth the deputies yield, and he de-
parts rejoicing. having, it is to be
hoped, saved his job.

owner of champion Dane or st.

asked the breed of his dog, he describes
it as yellow, and as bearing the hitting
name of Tramp.

it took d walk one morning and never
came back. Now I've got yellow dog
that you can't kill or lose and I'm
happy
At first sight it seems rather super
fiuouS TO enter the names of dogs in
not of any particular value as a means
of identification
I'VE do it to prevent fraud" explains
the deputy. People who either find or
steal tag come up here to get dupli-
cate certificates, and then we ask them
what the name of their dog is. The
question floors them. Anybody, if they
have their certificate, can get a dupli-
cate tag on payment of rs cents, but it
cannot be used on another dog"
AS a matter Of fact, however, it often
is Lots of people who have two or
more dogs apply for duplicates, pre-
tending they have lost the original.
They save 81 rs by this little device.
Another plan is to make one tag do
duty for several dogs by changing the
collar. The inconvenience of this
method, however, is that you can only
have one dog free at a time. The Lii
cense Collector is poWerless to check
these evasions, nor can the poundman
help him. If dog has a tag on it is
exempt from capture, and the pound

man, Of course, cannot ascertain
whether the animal is the rightful Ii
censee or not.
Still, if entering the names is of no
particular value. it has one unexpected
effect. The register is converted into
huge comic annual, full of the most ex-
traOrdinary titles ever invented What
do you think, for instance, of a butch

is a bootblack who has called his black
dog Shine. a Gordon setter rejoices in

a cocker spaniel is fittingly entitled

do their best to make the register a
humorous document 1t seems strange,
but in lots of cases people who are will
ing to pay 81 for registration do not
know the name or breed of their dog.
Some owners, with cheerful self-abase-
ment enter their animals as mOngrelS.
The deputies help others out by resort

may be either John or Jane Doe. One

he will learn that there is enough land
planted in peaches, pears and prunes tC
produce a crop of over 2000 tons for which
a price of $45, delivered at the cars, was
received this season; that the dairy,
which produces 70J0 pounds of butter
every month. is supplied by 200 pure
booded Holstein cows that give each
month 10000 gallons Of milk. The grain
lands of the farm he will be told yield
125, 600 sacks each season; and over so tons
of wool is obtained from the sheep that
Craze on the range. In addition to all this
the farm is stocked with nearly 2000 head
Of thoroughbred cattle 300 mules and
horses. 2U10 hogs and ducks, chickens and
geese in such numbers as to defy all
computation.
To attend to all this the man from New

about 800 men are required and the ex-
penses' run up to over 600 per month.
But this is the season for harvesting
the grape crop and the team Is now
standing ready to take Mr.. Ramsay and
his visitor 10 the vineyard, $500 acres in
extent where the long rows of green
vines stretch away and away until their
color seems to merge and lose itself in
the shadows of the distant horizon.
In this vineyard the visitor will see over

dies to the exclusion of all others, while
the real judges Of the East and Europe
send thousands Of miles to procure from
California those goods, which they say
are superior to anything of the kind pro
duced anywhere else in the world. A
curious phase of affairs is that a very
large percentage of the Vina brandy Is

largest ever sent from this country to
any port in the world.
The period Of the strangers visit having
come to d close he is driven to the train
and put aboard the cars by his hOspitable
host, Manager Ramsay, who climbs on
the platform to bid him bon voyage and
to insist upon him repeating his visit as
soon as an opportunity shall present it
and as the traveller sits near the window
of his Pullman and looks on the great
stretch of vineyard that borders the track
on either side he hears a gentleman in the
section ahead explaining something to
party of ladies who are eagerly gazing out
Of the car windows The gentleman is
now speaking a little louder, and the trav-
eler hears him say: 'TheSe great
stretches, Of grape lands that you see are
the Vina vineyards. They are the largest
in the world"
The Vina vineyards the largest in the
wOIld?' says the traveller 10 himself.
Yes, l remember Of reading that as a

Then the eye of his fancy wanders back
to his Vermont home and the little plat
of land surrounding it. How small and

Anichkoff palace of Alexander III, and
was supplied with automatic electric APP
pliances to protect it from being under

A secret league for the protection of the
Czar was started. Officers Of all grades
and to undertake voluntary spying in all
classes of society. Comical scenes fol-
lowed. of course. Two officers. without
knowing that they both belonged TO the
league, would entice each other into dis
loyal conversation during a railway jour
ney and then proceed to arrest each other,
only to discover at the last moment that
their plans had been labor lost: This
league still exists in more official shape,

of the Czar. Vladimir, for the purpose of
opposing the revolutionists in different
ways, one of which was to kill off those of
the refugees who were supposed TO have
been the leaders of the late conspiracies

violently reproached the officers of the
league for their cowardice, regretting that
there were none among them who would
undertake to Kill such refugees; and an
officer, who had been a page de chambre
at the time / was in the corps Of pages,
was appointed by the league to carry out
this particular work. Skobeloff, the hero
of the Turkish war, was asked to join

ITO the practical mind and to the con-
templative mind the same thought occurs

With such arguments Mr.. Phillips has
opened a discussion that has extended
into every denomination Of the religious
world. and 1t is safe to say that there are
thousands of people to-day who believe in
