A COOPERATIVE DOG.
Something Entirely New i'm the Popu-
lar Fad.

A great many industries have been
started and promoted on the co-opera-
tive basis but it remains for a number
of the business men on East Sixth
avenue to own a cooperative dog. The
dog, a very common sort of dog it
is, is maintained and dog license paid
for, by the merchants and business
men from the alley on East Sixth to
Quincy street. Each of the business
men represented in that portion of the
block gladly chip in to pay the license
which grants the dog a lease on life.
In return for this the dog chases all
the rats from that particular neigh
borhood rendering the business houses
rat-free- for he has eStab liShed a fear
full record among the denizens of rat
dom. Each morning the dog starts
out from an East Sixth avenue restau-
rant where he stays during the even
ing and eats his breakfast, making
the rounds in the portion of the block
referred to. AS regular as the clock
runs one can see him go Soberly trot-
ting around from number to number
Deering into the hooks and crannies
which abound in the rear of the build
ings and when small grey back
comes in view it takes only a lunge
from the dog, firm grasp by rigid
teeth upon the neck, an energetic
shake and with a toss the rat is cast
aside. forever dead.
Though but an ordinary looking dog
small and black, there is a great store
of affection held for him among the
patrons whom he serves.

MORTON ALBAUGH AT HOME.
How He Caught Three-F'oOt Muskel-
Iunge.

Morton Albaugh returned today
from his outing at Judge Pollock s
cottage on Lake Huron. There is a
thrilling story of Mr.. AlbaughS fish
ing experience that he will not tell
unless he is urged.
With Frank Brown Mr.. Albaugh was
fishing several miles from the Pollock
Island when his hook was taken by
what appeared to be a very large fish
and one which possessed ability to
fight. 1t was several minutes before
Mr.. Albaugh managed to get the mon
ster into the boat and it proved to
be what Mr.. Albaugh believed to be
a muSkellunge at least three feet long.
Now the fisherman who captures
muskellunge is envied by everyone. 1t
is the realization of his fondest hopes
and as soon as the fish was safe in
the boat Mr.. Albaugh directed that Mr..
Brown should row back to the island
and he was so elated that when he
got in sight of the cottage that he
stood up in the boat and shouted
Give three cheers for me. I've got
'lunge, I've got a lunge."
There were one or two natives at
the cottage and Mr.. Albaugh proudly
exhibited his fish and there was
suppressed litter from them which
caused Judge Pollock to inquire:
What kind of a fish is that?"
That's a dog fish, sneered one of
the men.
That was like dash of cold water
to the old Republican leader for the
dog fish is stunned by every fisherman
in the northern waters He is neither
fit for food nor beautiful to look upon.

BALD HEAD ADS MUST GO.
Stamping Act Discourages New French
Industry.

Paris, Aug. 1.-THE new scheme of
utilizing bald heads for advertising
purposes has met with a serious OBJ
stacle. The plan was to paint signs
on shiny pates and then have the
owner thereof stroll about the streets
and into the cafes.
But the plan has the law to deal
with. And this requires that all ad-
vertisements and posters displayed in
the streets must bear the government
revenue stamp. After the stamp has
been affixed it must be Cancelled.
When the owner of a sensitive bald
head comes to have it plastered with a
revenue stamp and a strong armed
official bangs the clamp with big
metal seal it is thought that he will

usually good promise; the corn in the
Neosho and Verdigris valleys planted
since the last flood is growing rapidly,
though still small yet. The corn Is
caring in the central counties. Wheat
harvest is practically finished Stack
ing and threshing are progressing rap
idly; more wheat has been cut than
expected, and most of it is turning out
better than anticipated. The oat crop
has been cut but it is generally light
crop. Haying is general and large
crop of fine prairie hay is being put
up. The second crop of alfalfa is gen.
orally in the stack. The fax crop in
tatoes are a crop except in the river
bottoms where they have rotted.
Apples have dropped considerably,
promising diminished crop. Peaches
Grapes give very good promise
MIDDLE DIVISION.
Corn is improving and where the
ground is clean promises a very good
crop. It is earring in the central coun-
ties and tasseling in the northern.
Wheat harvest has about ended and
stacking has progressed rapidly.
Threshing from the shock is progress
ing giving a lighter yield than antici-
pated. The oat harvest is generally
over though some bottom oats, badly
lodged, have not been cut; while the
crop is fair in some counties it is poor
in others. Haying has begun and a
very good crop is being put up. The
second crop of alfalfa is generally in
stack and is a good crop. Apples are
plentiful in some of the southern
counties but falling in the northern.
Forage crops are doing we'll
WESTERN DIVISION.
Corn has made a good growth and
is tasseling and silking but it is now
needing rain in many of the counties.
Wheat harvest is over and stacking
is progressing. Threshing has begun.
Oats and barley are yielding much
better than anticipated. Kaffir corn
has made good growth. Cane is doing
we'll. except that in Ness it needs rain.

but grasshoppers are damaging the
seed crop. Prairie haying has begun
and the crop is fine. Ground is get

PARKER At WORK.
Rainy Day Affords Opportunity for
Preparing His Speech.

Esopus, n. Y, Aug. q A rainy
day and a practically complete cessa-
ton in the procession of visitors gave
Judge Parker an unbroken morning
in which to work on his speech of &C
ceptance to be delivered upon the oc-
casion of his formal notification on
Wednesday of next week.
The rumor that George Foster Pea
of the national committee, was the
only important political topic attract
ing much attention here today. Judge
Parker refused to comment In any
way upon the report, but it is be-
lieved to be well founded and unless
some important change in the situa-
ton is made necessary by later de-
velopments, the selection of Mr.. Pea
body as treasurer will be announced
within "a hours.
including the personnel of the nation
al executive committee are looked for
todaV or tomorrow from Indianapolis,
where Chairman Taggart remains to
attend the Indiana Democratic con-
VentiOn. 1t is said here that he is in
almost constant communication with
Judge Parker. 1t is still believed w.
T. Sheehan will be chairman of the
executive committee and the finance
committee will be amalgamated there
with.
Mr.. Sheehan remains in New York
City, where it is understood he is COM
bining attention to his legal business
with a close cooperation in the affairs
of the national committee including the
selection of new eastern headquarters.
Judge Parker3refused today to con-
firm the report that he had accepted the
invitation of Norman E. Mack, the ma
tional committeeman from New York
state to be with Mrs. Parker, his guest
at the St. Louis exposition on New
York state day October 4. There is
reason to believe that he might make
such a trip as this without violating
the principle upon which he has based
his determination not to make any
speech making tour.
The new railway station and other
at EsopuS being made by
the West Shore railway will be complet-
ed before the notification. Storekeepers
and residents are preparing to make
August 10 the greatest day in the his
tory of Esopus. A large supply of
bunting and flags mas been procured
for decorative purposes.
