Up the road was station, Alpena,

succeeded in always riding free The

Curious Canine Caper Coming From

Clinton, g., Feb. 1.-THE pet dog
Of Sidney y. Smith Of this town bit oil
bis masters nose last night. The dog
was asleep in front of an open fireplace
and while dreaming exhibited signs Of
extreme restlessness. Mr.. Smith, stoop-

placed his hand on the dogs head. The
animal, with a sharp yelp, sprang into
the air and seized Mr.. Smith By the
nose, almost seyering it from his face.
Eleven stitches were needed to replace
the nose, but the physicians give little
hope Of saving it.

IN the mayors court in the town Of
Wayne, |. T., with the crime Of petit
larceny, the theft of some cheap jewell

ed, although it had stood there for
twenty years, and this was the first
case to be tried in the new court Men
had grown from childhood to gray
haired gandfathers in that community
ana never seen court nor attended an
election. This was great occasion to
them. In order that weighty business
AFFAIRS might not detain them, the hear

evening. The supper hour was scarcely
passed when great throngs of people
came out, all anxious to hear a case
IN court, and talking Of the Importance

the great responsibility resting upon
them, retired to deliberate. 1t was at
2 o'clock, M, and it was very dark.
Time passed, o'clock came, then $3.50,
and no verdict. The anxiety and ex-
element grew tense, and faces grew
pale and haggard. The mother of the
boy, whose fate rested with the abb

have TO pay fine Of probably $40,
swooned, tainted and fell. The most
careful attention barely restored her,
and as time passed and yet no verdict,
the anxiety almost changed to remorse,
and the scene was like that of the death

Good Singers.

One of the best concerts of the sea
son was given at the high school audi
torium on Friday night under the
auspices of the Swedish-American Ma
tional league. About 500 people were
in the audience.
This was the first of a series of con-
certs which will be given. The league
was organized three years ago when
the terrible famine was in Sweden,
and at that time concerts were given
here for the purpose of raising money
1t is now the plan of the league to
keep up the musical events and use
the money for charitable purposes.
The annual June festival of the
league win be held in Topeka on June
25. The affair promises to be an ex-
tensive one and arrangements are be-
ing made to entertain 1000 delegates.
Concerts viii be given while that
gathering is here.
The singing of Olof Valley was the
feature of the programme last night.
He is instructor Of vocal music at Man
haitian Agricultural college and has a
national reputation as a baritone sing
