Zimmerman of Cincinnati, who
probably enjoys some of those
feelings which stern republicans scoff at
has had the opportunity of his life to rub
elbows with royalty. Alas, an ocean d.
vided him from the aforesaid royal ell
bows. But it was not figurative ocean,
But the real atlantic. A few days ago
the Viscount Vaudeville, second child and
eldest son of the Duke of Manchester was
christened at the Chapel Royal. st.
James; and Queen Alexandra acted as
the other sponsor. The Queen was re-
ceived by Consuela, Dowager Duchess of
Manchester, the chld's grandmother, and
Dean Shepard. The font which was de-
corated with arum lilies and lilies of the
valley, contained water from the Jordan.
The child was christened Alexander
George Francis Drogo. The register was
signed by the queen and Sir John Lister
Kaye. Queen Alexandra kissed the child
and shook hands with the mother and
godmother. The mother of Viscount
Vaudeville was Miss Helen Zimmerman.
This reminds me that the young dukes
fortunes were far from being in healthy
state when he married. 1t was supposed
that the debt would be paid by the father
in-law, but 1t seems that the anticipations
of the ducal couple were not to be real
ized And now like in a fairy story an
American bachelor uncle dies and leaves
a fortune of s3,0OO.0O0 to the dukes
mother, Sonsuela, Dowager Duchess of
Marlborough.

daughter of the late Jabez A. Bostwick,
who made millions in oil. and was one of
the great Standard Oil magnates. She

DOCTORS ZEAL ArERTS
doom OF OUTLAW DOG
Bond for Sentenced Pet Pro-
longs a Threatened Life.

Sentenced to die and protected by no
Teprieve, Yankee" still lives, though
the execution day has passed. Yankee
is the name Of a fox terrier owned by
Dr. J. Morgan Barber, which one of the
Police Court judges ordered to be shot
over a month ago. The dogs master,
however, made a strenuous effort to save
his pets life and SO far succeeded that il
is said Yankee" enjoyed his Christmas
and New Year dinners at the home of
his protecting master.
The animal is said to have bitten a
small boy and a warrant was issued for
the arrest Of Dr.. Barber on the charge
Of keeping a vicious and dangerous dog.
Dr. Barber was found guilty Of the
charge and in addition TO being fined the
court ordered that the physicians pet
should be delivered into the hands of the
poundmaster for execution The dog was
SO delivered, but for some reason the
judgment Of the court was not imme-
diately carried out.
After conviction, Dr.. Barber, through
counsel, fled a motion for new trial
This was overruIed by the trial judge
and then the law again clamored for the
death Of Yankee" AS a final resort Dr.
Barber through his attorneys, Lipscomb
& Wheatley, secured possession Of the
dog by repIevin proceedings, a sufficient
bond having been given to guarantee
compliance with the final order Of the
court ii the matter.
DR.. Barber, having filed bond. secured
possession Of his pet and returned him to
home kennel That was several weeks
ago and since then Yankee" has been
enjoying all the comforts Of canine life
The replevin proceedings. which were
instituted some time ago, it is under
stood. viii come On for hearing within a
few days. In the event that the judg-
ment is again adverse to Dr.. Barber, it
is understood he will appeal the case 20

Robert Bell, Dr. I c. Russell. DR.. Will
lam NJ. Davis. Dr.. w } MCGEE, Prof.
Minot, and Prof. Charles F. Walcott.
Prof. Van Hise. who is at present an
Instructor in the University OF WisC0n-
sin, is famous for his published theory
of ere deposits throughout the world,
which is regarded as the standard work
Of its kind. and a master work Of q mas
ter mind Prof Van Hise is also the first
scientist living today to get a steamer
named after him. one of the ore-carry-
/ ing vessels Of the Great Lakes having
/ been recently christened after him.
Dr. Remscn, aside from his high posi-
ton as president of the Johns Hopkins
! University. ranks as one Of the leading
! organic chemists of the world, and is
noted for his precision and method. Few
men today accomplish more work in a
given time than does DR.. Remsen.
In strong contrast to Dr. Remsen is
Dr. Alexander Graham Bell, who is noted
as being somewhat erratic in his meth
DDS, at the same time accomplishing a
large amount of work along scientific
lines
Dr. Bells most prominent character
! istic, perhaps, is his wonderful origin
atty. DR., Robert Bell is the acting
director Of the Canadian survey. Be
sides having made numerous expIora-
lions he has distinguished himself by
placing over 1000 geographic names on
the Canadian map. DR.. Russell and DR..
Davis of Harvard are biologists whose
{ fame is thoroughly known, as is also
that Of Dr., MCGEE. whose work IN an
thropology and ethnology has ranked
high. Prof. Minot Of Cambridge has
made great strides within the past few
years in biology. and Dr. WaIcott, di-
rector OF the United States Geological
Survey, is widely known for his organ
izing capacity.
Besides these men there was also pres
ent at the meeting one other whose
fame as an expert on gems is as we'll
known as that of John Hays Hammond
in mining lines. He was George f.
Kuntz, and he has made a worldwide
reputation for his discovery of fraudu-
lent gems. He is at present connected
with the largest firm in New York hand
ling precious stones, and has contribut-
ed much valuable work to the Govern
ment at times in his career.

Beca use ! Love You.

Amateur theatricals held the boards
on Tuesday night when the drama
Because | Love You" was rendered
under the direction of VIM. Z. Graham.
On the whole the play was not as
satisfactorily rendered as the former
play, "Under Two Flags, due in a
large measure to the limited time in
preparing for it, the play being staged
in about week and Christmas week
at that; one of the principal perform
ers, Wm. Dana having but four days
to learn his lines and rehearse. TAX
ing all things into consideration, the
play was well rendered.
The hit of the evening was unques-
tionably ID. II. Stovall as Buck Tyson,
ripsy tinker, whose love for rum was
only equaled by his desire to pick up
small articles lying around.
Miss Ethel johnson as Nance Tyson
was perfect imitation of what the
old woman might have been. Miss
Cleo Lucas as Ginger was perfectly at

capped and did not come up to her

We read of the car wreck Mt the

beer and other miscellaneous goods in

that report may be correct in the
main, but at that time ardent spirits
were scattered on the north side Of
Tunnel 8 as fragments of parcels oi
goods Of several kinds were found,
showing wreck on the railroad.
These goods were consigned to Lee
land. We think the railroad company
will have to make the Joss good.
Mr.. Gray from Harris Flat made us
a call. He reports lively times in
that vacinity. Miners are having a

but most miners have sufficient to

command, otherwise the men would
leave and go and look for other work.
