Meanwhile the ragtime artists went
downstairs, and the janitor, a short
time afterwards came up. Noticing

possessed pedigree or master, with
deliberate cruelty, lifted the unsdspect-

! Yesterday was another bad day for
untagged dogs, for the official dog
naper was again on the warpath with
his cage and his lariat.
He sought out the byeways and
hedges of the city yesterday, and as
no one VOTED of his coming his har-
vest was fat one.
In the Kewalo district he made his
record, capturing no less than twenty
nine unregistered CANNES. Every one
out that way keeps dogs. The natives,
for raising for pot purposes, and the
children of Portugal, to scare away
the would-be depleters OF the family
chicken roost. On the former the alb
duction of a dog more or less falls not
heavily, but to the Portuguese it is a.
sad blow. They need the dog badly
but oh, it hurts them to pay the price
of the tax.
Down Queen street into the swipe-
lands swooped the catcher, and in his
wake followed more small children
than figure on the roll or any educa-
tional institution in Honolulu. The
dog catcher is to the Kakaako infant
what circus is to his brother and sister
over the water School never keeps
for him on dog-catcher day.
Aha, there goes dog; big black
fellow, sleek and well groomed but
bearing the bar sinister w1tnaI. Doubt
icSS iie 10 diiSloCIdliS progeny tIldt iidS
lost his way after a night of revelry
with other gay dogs in the swamps.
1t matters not to the dog catcher,
however; prize winner or cur, makes
no difference to him; all is fair game
as long as it be un-tagged dog.
I4ic catcher and his assistants get
off the wagon and try to surround the
animal. In this they have no difficulty,
for their victim is of the unsuspecting
kind. Swish! sings the rope, and the
dog is caught by a hind leg, grabbed
by the scruff of the neck and bundled
ing and stands a good chance of be-
ing redeemed.
The next halt Is made on behalf of a
mongrel, heavy-jowled and 1.-THE of
limb. He is not the easy game that
his predecessor was. He takes no
chances, but at the sight of the rope
bolts through a pake store and out
the back door into the impenerrable
maze of fish ponds and taro patches.
He has been there before, and will be
there again, when his friend the catch
er next happens around.
The next catch is a wee puppy, too
fat to run away. Maybe he's over the
age limit, but it certainly doesn't look
like it. He is picked up and thrown IN
with the scared and yapping mob, de-
spite the fearful entreaties of small
boy and girl, whose plaything he had
been.
Gimme doggie!" cry the youngsters;
Hes our doggie, and you can't have
him, cause we want him." they whim-
per, but the catcher is memorable and
drives on.

Dillon Man Wades Into a Skill and
Then Hunts for the Bottom
of the Lake.

ID. p. f. Leavy of Seattle, who has been
spending a few days in the city in the
interests of an insurance company he
represents. tells a good story about an
experience he had once while he was
trying to convince people that what they
most needed was life insurance.
Il started out down in the southern
part Of this state,' said Mr.. Levy, Gin
tending to save a few lives, or at least
TO reduce the risk of living for some
people, and came near losing a life be-
fore l got through with my travels.
II was accompanied by l.. J. Price of
Dillon, who knows about all the people
around his part of the country. We
journeyed to Monida, and from thel e
struck out into the country.
Big, Jolly Fellow.
zone night we wound up at sort of
tavern, where big. jolly fellow lived
by a lake and fed travellers and hired
out boats to them.
I'm the morning Mr.. Price, who tips
the scales at somewhere around 500
pounds. concluded that the first and best
thing he could do would be to take
ride in one of the lake boats.
He moved into the flimsy skiff conf
IDENTIFY enough, and he had gotten almost
back to the stern of it when the craft
reared into the air about 10 feet and my
big friend started for the bottom Of the
lake.
He gave a loud whoop as he sunk out
of sight, and l thought for a time that
l was going to have to continue nay
journey alone.
After he had been under water about
minute l saw bunch OF red whiskers
waving above the surface of the lake.
and the landlord and myself made a go
tor the blonde beard. l had an oar in
my hand, and the boniface carried so feet
of hawser in his hands.
Steered for the Shore.
"Mr. Price got one hand on the oar
and wound the rope about his body
and we steered him in to shore
His clothes were water-sOaked, of
course, and he had no others at hand.
fortunately, the landlord was a big
man, and the Dillon navigator squeezed
himself into a suit of the borrowed gar
mtnts and sat down to wait for his own
raiment to dry out.
when the sun had had fair chance
at the drenched apparel Mr.. Price made
out to distend them enough to allow
himself to get into them and we con-
tinued Onaour journey.
Il found out that my friend was an
right when it came to helping me out
in the insurance business, but he was a
dismal failure at running a small boat"

WHO OWNS THE STREET.
Claimed by w. H. Patterson and Lucy
M. Storey and the City.


Whether the city of Butte will be per-
mitted to use more than 60 feet of
Aluminium street, between Montana and
Washington, without paying w. H. Pat
terson and Lucy NJ. Storey for it, is
a question with which the district court
is now wrestling. ,.
Mr.. Patterson and Mrs. Storey own the
ground, but the city desired to use it
and began grading so feet of it.
The owners objected and the city
commenced proceedings to enjoin them
from interfering with the work. I
The owners also began similar pro-
ceedings against the city to stop the
work.
They claimed that the ground belonged
to them and had never been given the
city for use as a street; that the city
had never offered to pay them for the
ground or condemned it for street pur-
poses.
The matter was heard by Judge Har-
ney yesterday and at it's conclusion the
judge took it under advisement. In re-
serving his decision the judge stated that
there was no question in his mind as
to the arbitrary methods of the city
in seeking to grade the extra 20 feet;
that he believed the property had never
been dedicated to the city by the own
ers but as to whether an injunction
should be issued he was in doubt, and
would look into it and render a de-
cision Saturday. =.

JAPANESE INVASION
LABOR LEADERS WORKING HAR1
TO HAVE CELEsTIALs BARRED.
M'D0NALD SEES DANGER AHEAD
President of the Western Labor Union
Declares the Jap Is to Be
Feared as Much DIS the
Chinese.

..Within the last three years $4,000
Japanese have been landed at two "a
cific coast ports to work in this coun-
try. So It is no wonder that organized
labor in the West is as bitterly opposed
to the entrance of japanese as Chi
nese.
This is the position of President Daniel
Mcdonald Of the Western Labor Union
on the question Of cheap labor and the
renewal Of the Geary exclusion act, says
Denver paper.
AS the head OF a great Western labor
organization, President Mcdonald Is &C
lively exerting himself to bring about
| the exclusion Of both Japs and Chi
nese.
Resolutions and Petitions.
Under his direction the Western Labor
Union has sent resolutions and petit
tons to every senator in congress ask
| ing for the re-enactment of the Geary
exclusion law, and that Japs be IN
| cluded in the exclusion provisions of the
new law.
Petitions are being circulated all over
| the West and unions everywhere are
holding public meetings.
A circular letter has been sent to all
| unions asking them to take a stand
that will influence Western congressman
and senators.
Says President Mcdonald:
"Organized labor cannot be too fully
aroused over this deadly opponent from
the Orient. The Jap is as much to be
feared as the Chinese. The new law
should exclude him also.
"The 10000 Japs that I speak of are
rapidly filling up the whole Northwest.
They work in the fisheries, on the rail-
roads, in the lumber camps and in some
cases are firing engines.
Work for Small Wages.
"They work for 81 to $1.15 day.
Our men cannot compete with them in
this regard. We must influence every
Western senator and congressman to
stand by us.
1.-The movement among the laboring
men of the West is sincere and over
whelming.
II believe it will be heard in the
halls of congress and that this yellow
menace will not poison labor's industrial
interests"
