WORK OF THE HOUND.
The Bloodhound Did His Work Well
Under the Circumstances -Ex-
pertinent Satisfactory.


Considerable interest was developed
by the public in reference to blood
hound brought here from Sioux City
to take up the trail Of the parties who
broke into Fogarty's saloon Saturday
night. The dog was given the scent
late Monday afternoon and he fol
lowed the trail in circuitous route
until it went into the fair grounds and
there the animal seemed to lose it aud
he WAS given another trial. He took
the scent again and followed it some
distance and then took up the scent OF
a horse which led couple of miles
into the country and went into the barn
of George Law. 1t developed that on
Saturday afternoon MIR. Law had driven
through the alley in the rear OF
Fogarty's saloon, which accounted for
the hound taking up that trail. OF
course none associated the gentleman
with anything of that character, and
the party returned to town and the dog
was put to work again. This time he
followed the trail about a mile and
half east of town and there he seemed
to lose the scent. The affair OF the rob-
oery happened thirty-siN hours before
and there WAS no wonder that the dog
could do as we'll so long after. In the
evening the dog was taken out for
another trial, and it is stated that the
animal followed trail that may lead to
some developments.
Tuesday morning an experiment was
tried 10 show how we'll the dog could
take a scent and follow it. A party
covered certain route and left piece
of his coat at the starting point, on
which the dog started. An error was
| made in starting from the same place
where the robbery OF Saturday nigh
| was committed, and it was difficult for
the dog to take the new scent. He fol-
| lowed it for short time and then lost
| it, but developed the fact that he hno
quite an instinct that was in the main
unerring.
Mr.. Heath returned to Sioux City
Tuesday morning with the dog. Before
going he was asked what he would take
for the animal, and replied that he
thought he could be bought for Sl0O
Sheriff Swindler thinks strongly o1
arranging to purchase the animal and
keep him in this city for use in crimina
caaes. Several gentlemen were of the
same opinion and agreed TO invest from
S. to $40 apiece to help purchase the
dog. It is believed that the presence
of the animal in this county would be
the means of preventing great deal o
crime and that he would pay for him
self in very short tine. Hardly any
criminal would take the chances of com
mitting burglary when the chance
were 80 strong against him of being
captured. The matter may be brough

ALL PARTIES PLEASED
There is a Slight Fear That the Strikers Will Insist on Conditions Which May Delay the Termina- tion-In the Mean Time the Strikers. Are Diligently Closing Other Mines.

Hazleton, Pa, Oct S.-The issuing of a call today by President Mitchell of the Mine Workers for a joint conven- ton of anthracite miners to be held at Scranton. beginning next Friday. for the purpose of deciding whether to ac- cept or. to reject the 10 per cent net in crease in wages offered by operators is long stride in the direction of bring ing the great coal miners strike to a close.
 It is believed that the convention will not be long one and it is expected that the strikers will almost unani- mously accept the advance in wages. There is, however, a possibility that by the introduction of a proposition to abolish the sliding scale and another to have the operators agree to a yearly wage contract, the termination of the strike may be somewhat delayed.

The struggle between the two factions has recently become so acute that H. R. Perham. secre tary of the order. secured temporary re straining order from the courts to pre- vent the order from removing hini from the office of secretary and treasurer Prominent members of the organiza- ton. however, assert that the extent of the internal troubles has been great ly exaggerated and that there is no probability of a disruption of the order because of the personal differences among its officers.

Berlin, Oct. S.-The somewhat opti- mistic view of the Chinese situation which prevailed in Germany last week has been unfavorably affected by re- ports that the Chinese court has de- cided to settle permanently at. Sinan Flu, the capital of the province Of Shen Si. This the Berliner Tageblatt re- gards as indisputable evidence that the Chinese government is as anti-foreign as ever.
 The failure of the court to return to Pekin, it says, makes a farce of the proposed peace negotiations. inasmuch as the Chinese government could annul the whole procedure at any moment by revoking the credentials of Prince Ching and Ii Hung Chang"
