BITTEN BY VICIOUS DOG
Father of the Boy Sues the Owner Of the
Canine for 5000 Damages.

John Padjan, 10 ycarS old, was bitten
in the face last August by a dog belonging
to John Miller, and today his father sued
Miller for $4,000 damages. Judge Clan-
cy appointed the elder Padjan guardian
of his son for the purposes of the suit.
The complaint alleges that the dog was
accustomed to bite mankind.' 1t also
says Miller kept him and that he was
vicious. Then it adds that well know
ing the premises the defendant did wrong
fully and injuriously keep and harbor the
said vicious dog, and wrongfully and negli-
gently suffer the said dog to run at large
without being properly guarded and con-
fined"

ELEPHANT KILLS HER KEEPER
Because Offended at Supposed Insult
and Crushes Out Life.

New York, May 2S.-"Tops,' a female
elephant of the Forepaugh and Sells circus,
killed Joseph Blunt of Fort Wayne, Ind,
today at the show grounds in Brooklyn.
1t is customary for the elephants to
put out their trunks as their keepers
make their first round in the morning to
shake hands.
When Tops" proifered her trunk, Blunt
carried beer glass and showed it at the
animal.
The act offended the great beast and
in an instant she seized the man with
her trunk, hurled him violently to the
ground and, kneeling on him, crushed out
his life.

The corresponding pew to the right Of
the president was occupied by Major
Young and staff, in charge Of the military
portion of the funeral procession. The
staff Of the British embassy sat to the
left of the Pauncefotc ladies. The cab
met was accommodated in two pcws di-
rccty behind the presidents pew, and the
supreme court was given similar accom-

No Private Life FOR President.

1t is doubtful if the doings of any man
in the world are watched as closely as
those of the President of the United
States. This is carried to such an ex-
tent that he has practically no private
life. With the padding system of the
present journalism the lives of big Of
ficials are scrutinized with field glasses
from all sides and particularly the Pres
ident. Wherever he goes or whatever
he does the leading papers have their re-
porters on his track. Last week the
Chief Executive went bear hunting
for recreation and change from the
turmoils of politics. Bear hunting is a
tame affair compared with some of the
strifes of public life. He is followed by
an army of hungry newsgetters, who are
sending full reports regardless OF their
proximity to him. The public is grad
ually learning thing or two and no
more will be believed than seems rea-
sonable

FIGURING Business Of Washington Growing

The year 1902 will pass into history as
season of flour mill building. The
capacity OF the flour mills OF the state
will have been increased during the
year about 1900 barrels daily, number
of mills having added new equipment.
Two large mills have been built on Pu-
get Sound, one of / 800 barrels capacity
in Tacoma and one of 200 barrels in
Seattle. Several new mills varying in
capacity from 100 barrels to 400 barrels
have been built in the interior and more
are projected. The new milling capac-
ity if operated steadily would require
over 100000 bushels of wheat annu-
ally, about one-third of the state crop.
1t means not only the expansion OF the
flour trade in the orient, but that there
is a growing tendency to export the
states breadstuffs in the form of the
manufactured commodity rather than as
the raw material. II also means that
the wages that would otherwise be dis
bursed in foreign lands to mill Wash
ington wheat, are to be paid to the
workmen of Washington.

Mayor Fechter then stated that the
ordinance had been passed as protect
ion to the home draymen and if they
did not want it he believed it should be
repealed. After some discussion of the
matter the city attorney was instructed
to draw an ordinance repeating the ex
listing ordinance.

Three Days Without a Shot.

A party Of fourteen sportsmen from
Seattle, having heard of the far-famed
Horse Heaven country, where geese are
as numberless as the Jack rabbits on
the California plains, came over last
Sunday week, expecting to take back a
car load for Thanksgiving dinner. Three
days and nights passed by, thousands Of
geese were seen flying high above them,
but not shot did they get. Several OF
the party stopped off in Yakima for a
day to relate their troubles.

FRANCHISE GRANTED TO Nc
NAUGHTS RAIL WAY SYSTEM
Judges for City Election Appointed
at last Wednesdays Meeting
of the City Council.

At the adjourned meeting of the city
council Wednesday evening j. F. Nc
Naught was given the right of way to
build railroad on the streets of North
Yakima with the exceptions of Yakima
and Natchez avenues. The time limit
for the commencement of operations Of
the electric system is to be Nov. l, 1905.
Councilman Keck inquired if it were
proper to give control of every street in
the city to the proposed road, as he
thought another proposition might some
time in near future be made the city.
Edward Whitson called attention to a
clause in the ordinance providing that
in case any street is not used for the
purpose the right would lapse. The
clause is as follows:
Gas to all streets not occupied and up
on which he has failed to construct and
operate such railroads this ordinance
/. shall become null and void, and shall
only be entitled to the right to maintain
and operate railroads upon the streets
upon which he shall build and operate
such railroads within said period"
The question was raised as to the OBJ
struction of traffic and travel on the
streets during construction of the road.
A clause was inserted providing that
travel be not DISTRACTED during the
building of the road and that the streets
be put in as good condition by the COM
pany as when found. Futher that plank
cross walks be maintained by the COM
pany at the street intersections.
Councilmen present at this meeting
were; Reed. Liggett, Moran, Aikens and
Wyman. The matter of the McKivor-
lied street was then brought up and
Councilman Keck, head of committee on
streets and bitches, related the talk had
with Mr.. McKivor in regard to the work
now in progress.
The difference of opinion seemed to be
on lust what technical construction ma
cadamized pavement should consist Of
The committee talked the whole matter
over, finally concluding that two inches
of second coating followed by the speci-
fed third coating would put the street
in proper condition. As city Engineer
Marble had refused to have anything
futher to do with the work, the report
as made by Mr.. Keck was adopted.
The matter of violation of the ordin-
ance providing for license to drayman
in the city came up on the application
of H. L. Tucker who asked for refund
of money paid into the treasurer. The
ordinance stated fully that all draymen
had agreed to pay the license in case
every drayman paid. Norton and Dude
Minner were cited as directors and on
