IT had an opportunity to observe the
efficiency Of the bloodhound as an In
strument for tracking criminals while
I was at Wichita" said a Macon at
torney the other day on returning from
a trip over into Kansas.
IAN atrocious crime had been COM
mitted out in the suburbs. The sheriff
was promptly notified and he respond
ed Immediately with his large, sombre
assistant. The dog was taken into the
house and to the room where the crime
occurred. 1t Immediately started out
with a bound, cleared the fence and
dashed into the timber with the sherifl
and the others following close behind
The hound ran to a stream, where II
appeared to be mystifed for a fe"
minutes. 1t ran up and down the
banks, painting and wagging Its tai
nervously. Suddenly 1t caught the
trail again and dashed onward up the
bank Of the stream, ran around tree
shot over a brush pile and then took
a bee line for town.
From this time on It never faltereo
nor seemed to be in doubt for a mo-

workman right and left. 1t went cleal
up to the topmost floor Of the eleva-

then darted down another way. When
it reached the bottom floor 1t ran Out
on the sidewalk, through the business
part Of town and then to the boarding
district. It was blocked by a closed
door at a small boarding house, but
when the officers caught up with the
dog they had the door opened. The dog
ascended the steps with bound, went
directly to a room occupied by one OF
the boarders, pushed open the door
with his fore feet and attacked the
clothes Of a man who was in bed
asleep.
1.-The savage growls awoke the man
up and he yelled loudly for protection
The sheriff entered the room just ir
time to seize the dog and pull him from
the mans throat. BY this time large

CLosENESs AND THRIFT.-Two prom
inent Wall street brokers, while at
luncheon at the Hoffman House one
day last week, INDUCED in series of
good natured recriminations about the
tendencies Of each to refrain from
spending money. One said to the 9TH
er:
II don't blame you for being close.
It Is in the family. Why, remember
your father when he ran a grocery
store. He was so close that If fly
settled in the sugar barrel he used to
catch the fly, dust it's feet off with a
broom and let it CO."
SOP" said the other. You needn't
get chesty. Your father was a farmer.
I can remember when he raised bees.
He made those poor bees work hard all
day, and, not satisfied with that, he
crossed them with lightning bugs and
made them work nights"
That's right" said the first, good
naturedly. "The old man was a thrift
ty chap. Why, I remember when he
crossed strawberry plants and milk
weed and got strawberries and cream"
Then they had a drink.-New York
Tribune.

tiently waiting the appearance Of the
quarry. The sheriff telephoned for
guards before attempting to remove
his man to Jail. A patrol wagon came
and the prisoner and dog were seated
in 1t, surrounded by policemen with
drawn revolvers. When the start was
made for the jail the crowd must have
numbered fully 1,500. They were vo-
ciferously demanding that the prison.
er be Immediately hung, but there was
no leader and lynching was averted.
During the drive the dog never for an
instant took his eyes from the tremb-
ling victim. So perfect was the
hounds work and so thoroughly had 1t
terrorized the prisoner, that he con-
fessed to the crime soon after he was
placed in Jail.
II was informed that the blood
hound was worth $1,000, and was one

A YOUTHFUL PRoMoTER.-A horse
man had an amusing experience near
the speedway few days ago. He
called an idle newsboy to hold his
horse while he made a call on a client.
On leaving the house he was surprised
to see another boy in charge of the
horse. So he asked:
"How's this? You are not the boy I
left my horse with?"
mo, sir. jist spekilated and bought
him Of the other boy for 10 cents. He
said as how you were only worth a
nickel, and 1 says you were good for
a quarter. See?"
The boy got the quarter and went
around the corner where the first boy
was waiting under an open window
in the home Of the horseman's friend
That's the way to work the swells, u
said the young speculator to his COM
panion. "Ef you had stayed, he would
have coughed up dime. The bluff
made him ershamed to hand over less
than the two bits. You gets II cents,
and I keep the extry cent for permot-
in dis scheme. See?"

FUN WITH THE PARsoN.-A clerical
friend Of mine told me capital story
of a Yale man who was the stroke oar
of his crew and the chief athlete on
the football field.
He entered the ministry and spent
years in missionary labor In the far
west. Walking one day through
frontier town, a cowboy stepped up to
him and said:
"Parson, you don't have enough fun
Take drink"
The minister declined.
"Well," he said. "parson, you must
have some fun. Here's faro layout
Take a hand in the game"
The minister declined.
"Parson," said the cowboy, you'll
die If you don't have some fun"
And he knocked the parsons hat of
his head and hit him a whack on the
ear
The old athletes spirit rose. The
science which had been learned In the
college gymnasium and forgotten FOL
a quarter Of a century was aroused
and a blow was landed on the jaw ol
that cowboy that, sent him sprawling
in the street.
The parson walked over to him as II
he had been a door rug. picked him
up and busted the side Of the house
with him and then mopped up the side
walk with his form.
AS the ambulance was carrying the
cowboy away he raised his head fee
bly, and said:
"Parson, what did you fool me for?
You are chock full Of fun."-New York
Times.

REMEMBERED HIS NEPHEws AMI
NIEcEs.-Colonel ]. T. Mclaughlin
who represents the defense in the Nome
contempt proceedings, worked his way
up from the bottom round Of the legal
ladder to the position he holds. In his
early practice he was glad to get any
thing that came along. Among the ex-
periences that helped him to emerge
from the condition Of a briefless bar
rister he tells the following: One day
a miserly old fellow came to him and
asked the young attorney to draw up
a will.
How much cash have you?" was the
first Interrogation.
well, I dunno" responded the cli-
ent, "somewheres nigh onto $4,000,
reckon"
How do you wish it divided?"
II want my old woman to have SIS,
bequeath $1,000 to each of my three
children" said the old man, unloading
himself Of the legal phrase with much
gravity and deliberation.
What else do you wish to say?"
Say that to each of my several
neices and nephews I also give the
sum Of $5,000"
Hold on, sir, this Is a work Of su-
pererogation; you have already dis
posed Of all your money. How are they
to be given the sums Of money you
specify?"
'Gol darn 'em, let 'em work for it as
I did," came the answer.-San Fran

THE PRESBYTERIAN CREED.-The pre-
liminary work Of revising the creed OF
the Presbyterian church so as to make
1t more popularity understood was inau-
gurated in Washington last Thursday
at meeting of a section of the COM
mittee Of 20 appointed at the last Pres
byterian assembly to accomplish this
result.
The section that met today began
the preparation Of a new statement OF
the doctrine Of the church. 1t spent
several hours in discussion, but no ac-
tion was taken on any phase Of the
subject. A form Of statement to re.
place the one now in use was submitted
and other forms will likely be submit
ted. The object Is to secure formal
expression of doctrine that will be more
definite and convey to the lay mind g
clearer understanding Of the subject
than the present declaration. No vita
changes were contemplated in today's
discussion but mainly a different mode
Of expression was aimed at.
Two other sections of the committee
will meet contemporaneously with the
full body and frame propositions fol
action by that body. One of these will
draft new chapters on the Holy Spirit
and on the love Of God, and the Other
will make a slight revision of the con.
fession Of faith with reference to the
elect infant declarations. 1t Is felt thai
the present statement on this point i'm
plies that any infant dying in infancy
his lost" from the standpoint Of the
religious future state and the creed tt
be adopted will make it clear that the
Presbyterian church does not hold the
belief that those who die in infancy are
lost"
