CHAMPION DOG TRAVELLER.
Scotch Collie, Although But Six Years Old, Has Already Covered
 5000 Miles

As q globe trouer, with wanderings extending from the frgid regions of the north 10 the tropics, and with east ing and westing that cover the farthest reaches of the American continent, six year-old Shep has a record to be proud of
 It is something like 2 000 miles, of which considerable was on foot. Shep is dog. a Scotch collie. the property of G. Carlton Woodward He is of the average size and more than usually well covered with long, yellow hair, which turns to black on the tip ends,
 Born somewhere in Montana, he found his way 10 the Klondike, where, in Dawson City. in 1902, he was pur chased by Mr Woodward. to become one of team to draw sled from there to Fairbanks, 650 miles away. He was bought al a bargain. too. for he cost only $50, and showed such intelligence that he was made leader of the team.
 Not counting his trip from Montana 10 Dawson City. Shep's travels since MT Woodward has owned him have been as follows: From Dawson to Fairbanks. pulling sled, 650 miles; from there down the Tanana river. by boat, 35o miles. thence up to Dawson, by steamer, 750 miles thence to White Horse, walking and sledding 450 miles; thence to Skagway, by train, 1lo miles; thence to Seattle, by boat o0o miles; thence to San Francisco, by rail, 400 miles; next to Panama where he sui iered greatly from heat by boat: across the isthmns, by raii-47 miles, that took three hours-up to New York. by boat, and from there 10 Chicago, by rail. making up the 5000 miles In Au- gust Shep started for the Klondike again.
 Shep does his 5o miles q day walking without any trouble if his feet are all right, and if pulling a sled he goes from 35 10 iG miles.

WEDDINGS TOO EXTENSIVE.
Costly Accessories Often Unnecessary and May Be Curtailed with
 Perfect Propriety.

Recently woman who has dWeit many years i'll the fashionable worIs remarked that as the years 90 on and the expensca- which include modern necessaries increase, ill the same ratio. the requirements of an up p-to-date fash ionable life multiply, and these nova days are totally different from those ol even 25 years ago.
 Formerly a brides rousseau was al that she had to think about. Now. how ever. sine finds that there are other ac- cessories which considerably augment her expenses.
 One very costly item iS the expensive souvenir ot the occasion iu the shape ol some article of jewelry which she is ex- pected to give to each one of her brides maids. and often also falthough this is not obllgator!D, some costly item Of the bridesmaids dresses. such as 4 hat, huff or some other accessory.
 Besides these she, too must Ii these latter days give a farewell dinner to her attendants and especial friends. which is generally hen" function, although some prefer to enliyeH the entertain ment by the introduction of the mascu- vne element.
 All of which taken together forms no inconsiderable portion of the general outlay. the aggregate sum of which amounts in some cases to q small for tune
 There is oily one decent way to get out Of all this. said bride-eleet recent ly, and that is to have no brides maids at all. Ifyou have them you are expected to do all these things. and my people find that my trGusseau and wedding breakfast are quite sufficient to please the family, without all the rest of il, so l am going to cut all that out.

The best kinds of masts were made of dowels-stieks one quarter inch thick to be found at lum- Der yards and hardware stores.
 On the mast was fastened a cross arm just as wide as the boat A piece of sheeting made an excellent sail. and after 1t was fastened on the arm with a thread and needle the two lower corners were fastened securely to the sides of the boat The sail was put as far forward as possible in the bow Gi the boat, for it helped steer. and no rudder became necessary. Without any doubt the boy who lives near the water and finds some odd pieces Of lumber, some nails and piece of cloth will find in this boatmaking enough to amuse him of and on half the summer.

DEMOCRATIC PAPER

ROOSEVELT
THE NEW YORK SUN
Says Republican Platform Has De-
fects, But is Better Than the
Democratic.
THE NEW YORK SUN

New York. August 13.-The New
Ycrk Sun said yesterday:
'.To state the Suns position and
its reasons therefor requires no meta
physical subtlety of explanation. The
main consideration is as broad "a the
nations interests. As the course Is
now made up, we prefer the impul>iFe.
candidate of the party of eonversa-
tism to the mildly conservative, tenn
porizing, opportunist representative or
the Hun vote in the background.
"We have more faith in the distinct
promises of the Chicago platform. not
ignoring the many serious defects OF
that document, than we have III the
miserable hellbroth of dishwater and
dynamite concocted at st. Louis by
party afraid to renounce its criminal
folly and tasted yesterday at Esopns
by a respectable candidate, who de-
clares with gusto that its favor Is ad-
mirable,
eve shall. therefore. advocate the
election of Roosevelt and Fairbanks.
and advise the defeat of Parker and
Davis, preserving our own absolute
independence Of organic control and
our freedom of Judgment as TO every
Espeeific question occurring.( And may
the Hon. Theodore Roosevelt 5 present
mood continue. and If he Is elected
may the discourager of preclpltaney
stand always at his elbow
"In the politics of the Empire
State, so far as they concern State
matters, We shall support the candl-
date, whatever may be the partisan
designation of his ticket, who seems
to us the more likely to give the peo-
pie of New York the honest and COM
petent administration their public az
fairs so grievously need and to wipe
out the shame and evil of existing
gross conditions at Albany"

FOR FAILURE
ENFORCE
The Law Which Requires Abandoned
Gas and Oil Wells to Be Securely
Plugged.

Railroads in general that cross or
traverse the Indiana Oil field, and the
Chicago, Cincinnati & Louisville rail
road in particular, have grievances
against the State of Indiana for it's
alleged failure to properly enforce the
law which requires abandoned gas
and oil wells to be plugged.
The salt in the water clings to the
sides Of boilers and there is chem
ical action that brings about dam
ages to the inner Innings, causing leak
ages. For year past the c., c. &
l.. officials have been seriously troub-
led with leaky locomotives. Several
new ones, just from the Baldwin
works, were pressed into service and
within few weeks were leaking quite
as badly as the older ones. Complaints
to the manufacturers brought back
the response that there was something
in the water used that was doing the
damage.
The c., C. & L. officials have been
looking into the matter and find that
the L. E. & W. and other railroads
that traverse the oil belt have suffer
ed the same experience. The matter
has been reported to the State inspec-
tor Of gas wells, who has informed
the c., c. & H. that a formal COM
plant should be registered in order
that the companies may be proceeded
against.
Many Of the water tanks of the
c., c. & l.. are located along the right
of way in the midst Of the oil fields.
Salt is found in most of the tanks.
The c., c. & L. has extended it's
passenger service through to Griffith,
Ind. This opens up forty-one miles
of the new line beyond North Judson
and puts trains into the very out
skirts Of Chicago. The new towns
reached are English Lake, Runnymede
Lacrosse, Maiden, Beatrice, Merrill
vile and Griffith. Work along the
entire c., C. & L. line is being pushed
forward with the greatest expedition
and it is a question of only a short
time until the through service be-
tween Cincinnati and Chicago will be
established.
