ATTACKED BY A MAD DOG.
Brute Dispatched with 4 SIedge Hsnmer,
but not Until q Csw Had Been Bitten.

On Monday morning of last
week as John W. Snyder, otDub-
lin township, went to his barn at
an early hour with a lantern, he
was attacked by a vicious looking
dog that gave every evidence of
having hydrophobia. Mr.. .Sny-
der, escaping from the dog, went
into the barn, when the dog at.
tackled one of Mr.. Snyder's cows.
Arming himself with a stout
pitchfork, Mr.. Snyder rushed
forth and succeeded IN pinning
the dog to the ground, holding
the dog there until Allison Bish-
op, who was employed at Mr..
Snyder's at the time, came and
with a sledge hammer, gave the
dangerous animal a free pass in
to dog-heaven.

AN OLD RHSIDENTHR.
A Land Turtle That Sports the Date 1901
on His Shell.

A few days ago as Mrs. J. o.
Mellott was walking through one
of the fields ON the Charlie Davis
farm near Saluvia, she noticed a
land turtle. A woman residing
in the country Is not supposed to
run and scream and haveia fit of
Mysteries every time she happens
on a reptile as lnoffensive as a
land turtle; in fact, so frequently
are they seen, that they are not
supposed to attract much atten-
ton. But In this particular in
stance, there was something
about the manner OF the reptile
that led Mrs. Mellott Instructive
ly to the conclusion that she was
in the presence of no ordinary
turtle. She picked 1t up. In
scibed on his shell was the date
1901, and the initials &c. r. "R
NJ, and rs. NJ" Now if the
date means anything, 1t means
that the turtle Is 104 years of age
sand then some" The persons
who put the date and initials on,
have long since been gathered to
their fathers.

GREATHEAD'S STABLE BURNED.
Evidently the Work of q rirebug. Al.
tempt to Burn II q Year Ago.

In passing the alley at the res.
idence of Leonard Holman last
Wednesday evening about nine
o'clock, Harvey Stoner noticed q
dim light in John w. Greathead g
stable. Calling to Harvey Unger
and John Conrad, who were in
the meat market, the three men
ran to the stable, What seemed
but a slight blaze in the lower
part of the stable, in an instant
lgnited something as lnfiam mable
as gasoline, for the flames leaped
to the empty NOV, and the whole
upper part of the structure was
filed with a seething fra that

volumes of black smoke.
The hose carriage was stored
IN one end of the building, and 1t
was the rarest good fortune that
1t was rescued, and fastened to
the plug at Dickson 8 corner, and
before many people knew that a
fire was on, the splendid pres.
sure from the water main was
sending a stream that even the
wild fire could not withstand,
and in few minutes the sur.
rounding property was safe, and
the fire was extingulshed. While
the stable is practically ruined,
it was not burned to the extent
of the rafters falling in. =
We understand that the loss is
entirely covered by insurance.

TWELVE HUNDRED DOLLARS
Earned 10 Frsnklin County this Season
by Fulton Corn Huskers.

Philip B. Melus, and Emanuel
and Frank Sipes-all of Lacking.
Creek township, returned home
last Saturday after having spent
four weeks In Franklin county
husklng corn. Fulton county men
who have been husking corn in
Franklin county and who are now
returning to their homes are
bringing with them not less than
twelve hundred dollars IN cold
cash. The corn crop has been un-
usually good, and owing to the
scarcity OF farm hands, huskers
have been able to make good mon
ey. The price ranged from FIVE
to seven cents a shock-five cents
for 60.hill shock; five and a half
cents for a 64-hill shock; six cents
for an 80.hill shock, and so on.-
The number of shocks one man
could husk in a day depended, of
course, on the skill of the husker
and the number of hills in a shock.
Mr.. Melius said that the lowest
number of shocks husked in day
by HIM was twenty -eight, and the
highest number, forty-four. HIS
earnings, during the entire cam.
paign, was ~ la day. The farm
or for whom they husk, of course
boards them and keeps mol BE

SEVENTEEN SENT HOME.
Vaccination Law Enforced by the Teach.
ers In the Borough Schools.

After having carried the risk of
a personal prosecution and the
payment of a fine for dlsobeying
the requirements of the vacclna.
tion law for more than two
months, and having given all per.
sons interested abundant time to
comply with Its provisions, the
Borough school teachers on Mon
day morning closed the school
house doors on all pupils who did
not have the necessary certificate.
In most cases, 1T is a matter OF
carelessness on the part of the
parents, and the children will be
promptly vaccinsted and restored
to their places in the school.
Of the one hundred and forty
pupils enrolled in the four schools,
it was found that seventy.e eight
would have to be vaccinated or
turned out. OF these seventy.
eight, sixty-one, up to Monday
morning, had "taken their medi.
cine" and the other seventeen
had to be sent home. Ten were
sent home from the Primary: six
from the intermediate, and one
from the Grammar school-the
High school pupils all came up
to the scratch"
Don't get mad at the teacher.
She did not make the law. There
would be just as much sense in
getting mad at the tax collector
who comes and asks you for mon.
ey and tells you he will sell your
cow,lf you do not come down with
the cash. Ifyou do take notion
to get mad, get mad at the men
who make such laws.

ODB FELLOWS BANQUET.
Hotel Metzler st HsrrisonviIe, the Scene
Of q Pleasant Event Saturday Evening.

OF Pleasant Event Saturday Evening.
Saturday evening was a red let
ter event in the history OF Odd
Fellowship IN Fulton county The
scene of this grand rally was Har-
risonville, and the cause of it all
was the accession of valuable ad-
ditlons to the membership of the
Lodge, at that place.
The Lodge convened at the reg
ular hour, transacted the regular
business, and added two new re-
cruits to their membership. Just
before closing it was announced
that adjournment be made to Ho
tel Metzler, where a programme
somewhat different would be TAX
en- up.
The writer has attended many
banquets'in in his time, but none to
excel this one of Saturday night.
Any one who has ever stopped
for meal at Hotel Metzler may
be able to conceive in part what
a banquet under the direction of
Mrs. Metzler might mean. All
the good things imaginable seem
ed to be gathered together and
prepared as few besides the host,
ess can prepare,
About thirty.five covers were
laid, and it is needless to say that
ample jusIlce was done to the
good things prepared.

Daughters" are committed to the plan
Of campaign. Their manual is in print
and will be published this week. 1t
declares unequivocal1y: 1.-The Catho-
lie divorce who remarries must be So
cially octracised."
This drastic rule may work havoc
in Catholic social circles. Not few
society women have already declared
that to fulfil the letter of the rules
they would be forced to ignore socially
not only closest friends, but in many
instances relatives, SO largely has d.
vorce through mixed marriages made
inroads into Catholic homes.
Although the CRUSADE threatens to
split society and cause much bitter
ness among old friends, it has the spe-
sial endorsements Of the pope.
When opposition threatened ner
work the founder Of the society, Miss
Eliza O'Brien Lummis, went to Rome
and had an audience with the pope
which resulted in papal brief ap-
proving the scheme and suggesting
that the women of the world cooper
ate with their New York sisters.
A preface to the book contains the
brief of appreciation recently received
from Pope Plus x, and personal letters
and endorsement from Mgr. Falconio,

COMPANY ORGANIZED TO FUR
NlSH WATER TO SETTLERS
IN THAT SECTION
Planned to Take Supply From the Big
kIickitat River-To Build Ditch
147 Miles Long.

r. M. Fouts, of Seattle, one of the
promoters of the Klickitat Irrigation
& Power company, a corporation re-
Gently organized by number OF Sc
attic and North Yakima persons, Is In
the city looking up the records OF
desert claim filings in what is known
as the Horse Heaven country.
Our company was recently organ
lied with a capital stock of 100000
for the purpose of putting through a
big irrigation project" said Mr.. Fouts
last night. "A number of the promot-
ers of the company are interested IN
land in the Horse Heaven country and
for some time have been considering
the proposition of getting water on it.
After several preliminary investiga-
tons were made it was decided to or
ganize a company and see if something
could not be done that would solve the
question. We now believe that we
have a project that will bring about
the desired results.
THE plan of the company is to take
water from the Big Klickitat river,
near Glenwood, and carry it through
bitches and fumes across the country
into the Horse Heaven section. We
have two engineering parties in the
field, who have been at work for some
time. They have about covered the
ground and from their reports, L. M.
Rice, our chief engineer, has decided
that the plan is feasible. If the ditch
is constructed, it will be LAT miles in
length, while the laterals that will be
built will equal about that number Of
miles. The estimated cost of the main
bitches and the laterals will be about
$4,000, 900. There is in the Horse
Heaven country about 100000 acres
that could be taken under the ditch.
TT is not the intention of our COM
ton, but we desire to secure contracts
from the people owning land to fur
nish them with water. If sufficient
contracts can be secured, the company
will then issue bonds and sell them in
order to get money enough to carry out
the project. We have been assured
by capitalists in the east that as soon
as the contract can be secured from
the land owners the bonds will be
taken up
Mr.. Fouts has compiled a list Of per-
sons who have filed on lands under
the desert claim act and will endeav-
or to induce them to contract for the
water.

SCORES STANDARD OIL.
Dr.. Washington GLADDEN. Makes Very
Spirited Reply to Critieizers

NEW YORK, June 23.-The Rev. DR..
Washington GLADDEN. has written a
spirited open letter in reply to the
Rev. Robert MacArthur's public crit
icism of him because of his objection
to churches receiving John D. Rookie
fellers money.
DR.. GLADDEN. first replies to DR.. Mac
Arthur's charge that he (Gladden)
never Investigated Standard Oil
methods, but showing that his sugges-
ton for a full and free investigation
was tracked.
II have never believed" DR.. GLADDEN.
adds, that an ex-parte investigation
would be satisfactory, and it seems, 1
confess, little less than absurd to ex-
pect that a few ministers of the gos-
pei, after being coached for a few
hours by Mr.. Dodd and Mr.. Rogers,
would be able to express a trustwor-
thy opinion on the business methods
of the Standard Oil company.
DIR. MacArthurs articles illustrates
the futility of this method. Relying on
the assurance of the authorizes of the
Standard Oil company, he proceeds to
distort the records Of the courts, and
to set aside the most undubitable facts
of history. In this ne is misled, of
course, but it may indicate that such
guidance is untrustworthy."
Dr. GLADDEN. says that DR.. MacAr-
thur is wrong in saying that "the
charges against Mr.. Rockefeller are
based on groundless rumor and have
all been disproved," and recites Judge
Bakers famous decision.
DR.. GLADDEN. cites proof that a GER
tain railroad company not only charg-
ed rs cents a barrel more than it
charged the Standard Oil company for
carrying oil, but that the railroad ac-
tually gave each 25 cents collected
from competitors to the Standard Oil
company

GIRL GRADUATE ELOPES
Miss Cook Had Hardly Time to Wait
for Her Sheepskin.

MADISON, Wis, June pa week
ago the chief of police here received
telegram from a Mr.. Cook, of Miller,
this state, warning him to prevent mis-
daughter, Caroline Cook, member of
the normal graduating class, from
leaving Madison until he could arrive
here, as he had good reason to believe
she was intending to marry young
man not Endorsed by the family.
The trains were watched and the
young woman made no attempt to
leave town. A day or two later ner
father arrived, and after a long talk
with his daughter he announced to the
authorities that she had given up all
idea of elopement. On commencement
day the young woman was graduated
with honors, and at the close OF the
exercises entered a speedy automobile
and was conveyed to Sioux Fails,
where she married the young man of
her choice.
While the father feels that he has
been badly deceived, still, as the young
woman was of legal age, it is doubt
full if his interference could have in
any way altered the result.
Miss Cook is highly spoken OF by
her instructors and classmates, was a
good student and was expected TO
make a good teacher until matrimony
interferred.
