Dogs and Autos.
2 Boston Transcript.

From the Boston Transcript.
Little dogs dear little pet dogs, that
run and bark wildly when anything I'M
usual in appearance or speed passes their
house. are doing as much as any other one
thing to turn the hair of automobilists
prematurely gray. OF course there is much
consideration in every mans heart for a.
dog. He wouldn't for anything do any,
thing to hurt a pet but as much as he
breads injuring 1t, he fears still more the
consequences to his machine and his pas
sengers If the dog and the automobile ac-
tually come together. Besides killing the
dog, the contact may send the machine to
''skidding," or turning somersaults, or to
doing something no other vehicle ever did
and for which. consequently, we have not
yet technical term. The word catas-
trophe sums up the situation, and there
never again can be love between the owner
of the auto and the owner of the departed
dog. And the saddest part of it all is that
a small dog cannot be taught. by an object
lesson, to beware of automobiles. His very
first lesson does for him completely.

they serve their full sentence.
Five put-up fines of three dollars and
costs and two of five dollars and costs

ed over into the city treasury.
After the close of the session of po-
lice court Mayor Shields expressed
himself in unequivocal terms that it
was his intention to break up the

permit him. lie stated emphaticalIy
that all prisoners appearing before him
for second time charged with being

NSiH Produce ''The Rivals" Next
 Monday Evening

On Monday evening ner the era matic club of the University of Tue son will produce "The Rivals" at the Bisbee Opera House. In Sheridan's famous old English play, no better choice could have been made by the club nor The Rivals" is the most Genghuul Of comedies.
 IL was first produced in Coyent Garden theater, London, in 1I75. and met at that time with instant success. Its popularity has grown with the stretch of time and we find the same play and especially the character of Bob Acres" included in the repertoire of many of our prominent actors: Joe Jefferson owing much of his renown 70 this same part Of this character T. Jefferson says:
 Bob too was an attractive fellow to tontemRete. The varieis Csof situ- ations in which the author has placed him. his arrival in town with his sallow head full of noneSense and curl papers, and his warm heart overflow ing with love for an heiress who could not endure him in the country because he used to dress so badly; a nature soft and raw. with a strong mixture of goose and peacock; his aping of the fashion of the town; his swagger and braggadocio while writing a cha1- f-iOhf Uh 70 realizes fiat he has done, make up in toto the very essence of pure comedy There is comedy in every character, plot and situation of the play. The wit is bright and sparkling; the hu- nor pure and hearty. The scene of the plot is laid in the famous English watering place at Bath and the time of the play leaves opportunity for the employment of old eighteenth century style and dress so that the novelty ir itself will be a treat to an apprecia- tive audience"
 The student actors have been under the constant coaching of Miss Pear King Of San Francisco. who has work ed out the cast with adI>irable skill and the production will no doubt bt very creditable. ...
 The play will be staged as when or iginally produced in London and thu costuming has been entrusted to Gold stein & Co. of San Francisco. T' stage a play of this nature entaili much work and great expense and i is to be hoped that the townspeopl
 will be generous in their support ( this effort on the part of the Univel sity to present before them 6 req classic production.
