Dog Ate in the Hotel.

Strange things sometimes happen In
the dining DOL OF the h%yphenated
hotel, but the appearance Of q middle.
aged man and q large dog there after
midnight last week was the prelude to
an experience new In the house. The
tardy guest was very anxious to keep
the dog ut the table with him. and
consented to the separation only when
told that such an %infractiOn Of the
rules could never be tolerated. Then
the animal was led into the hall and
tied there while the walters brought
the tenderloin steak and mushrooms
ordered by the owner. When they
came the cause Of the dogs presence
was made evident. The becfsteak was
for him, ind considering that 1t was
SO late and the restaurant nearly de-
serted the. head waiter allowed the
meat to be taken to the dog. But he
regretted his weakness when after the
animal had finished his meal the owner
returned to the restaurant to remon-
strate vocIferously with him because
the dog had not got the mushrooms
rs we'll. Then he led the animal out
into the night. after adding a new
chapter to the annals Of the restaurant.

bles to increase the numbe: Of common
schools for the boys and girls Of st.

Foresss in Sand Mills.

The task Of growing valuable for
est on the barren sand-hills Of Ne.
braska will begin this spring. when the
Bureau Of Forestry will. seed about
100 acres OF the Dismal River Forest
Reserve near Halsey with Red Cedar
and Jack Pine. II the seeding sue.
ceeds and Is done with economy. the
Bureau will seed and plant the follow
ing year probably 1000 acres In cedar
and pines and will ultimately extend
the forest by gradual paintings over a
large part Of the 20S.O00 acres in the
Dismal River and Niobrara reserves.
A nursery has been established at
Halsey. in the valley Of the Middle
Loup River. with a half-acre seed bed
protected by laths. A tool house and
office building has been built. Nearly
GOO pounds of seed, principally West.
ern Yellow Pine. Red Cedar and Jack
Pine has been collected for planting in
the spring.
The sand.hills are unfit for agricul-
ture. II large forests a be grown on
them. the timber will be of very great
value to q country now without trees.
where lumber brings high prices.
