EMPLOYEES
NOT DISTURBED

B. +. Peters. chief clerk of the Navy
Department has noticed no change in
the work of the department as q re-
suit Of the extension of Office hours TO
30 o. cIOck.
Before the change in the workday the
business was disposed of as satisfac-
Uorily as at present. Many Of the en-
plOyes remained after office hours. and
/ think the same men are still remaining
after office hours. regardless Of the eX-
ira half hour said Mr. Peters. There
is about so much business to be dis
posed OF every month. and the clerks
worked until il was completed under
the old rule. They are still doing the
same thing. as though no change had
been made in office hours.
Mr. Peters does not credit the charge
that clerks are taking more sick leave
since the lengthening of the Office hours
than they did before

An incorrjqibse Dog.

The intelligence Of the dog suffered
somewhat by an Athens narrative in
which 1t is made to appear that an old
dog owned by T. Holcomb recently
engaged with a rattler on the low
grounds near the town. and was re
verely bitten Mr.. Holcomb was fa
miliar with the formula for snake
bites. He had some of the medicine
on hand, consisting Of whisky and
quinine mixed In quantities to suit.
Opening the dogs jaws he turned a
liberal dose down him. Two or three
days elapsed during which the animal
was unable to walk straight, yet he
seemed not to have any pain, and In
fact appeared to enjoy himself But
at last he was sober again. One would
naturally think that having been bit
ten once he would have fought shy
of the swamp afterward, but the mo-
ment he was able to navigate he was
back among the boys again watching
for more snakes. This is why he
seems te1ligent.-Detroit (Mich.l

Cats XIII lntruding Snake.

A native woman living in Old Cairo.
Egypt was entering her house The
other day when to her great terror
she perceived snake OF formidable
dimensions, which had taken posses
sion OF the hearth during the owners
absence. The woman fed, leaving the
door open. Her cat then appeared on
the scene, entered, saw the cobra, put
up it's back and tail, spat and other
wise manifested it's hostility, and IN
turn went out. A few minutes after
ward it returned with a second cat.
After a similar exhibition both went
out and returned with a third, and
similarly went away, returning finally
with a fourth. Considering that stuff
cient to kill the snake, the four then
fell on the reptile, and after a short
but fierce struggle the latter was
literally torn to pieces.
