CONGREGATIONAL CLUB.
GUESTS LAST EVENING OF WEST
 HAVEN CHURCH.

Observance of Ladies' Nieht-About 200
 Present-Ladies Banquet Committee
 gratuIated-Address by Mrs. Ma
 than of New York-Fine Singing.
 The May meeting of the New Haven Congregational club was held last even ing with the West Haven Congrega- tional church in west Haven. It was the observance of ladies' night on the part of the club. A big delegation of members from New Haven were in- cluded in the large number who were present.
 About 200 guests sat down to the most excellent supper which Mrs. F. R. Lewis with the cooperation of the ladies of sewing society of the West Haven church served at 6:30. Mrs. Lewis and her associates are most heartily to be congratulated on serving one of the most delightful suppers which the club has ever had the for tune to partake of. .... 1.
 After the supper had been well dis posed of the members adjourned to the church edifice on the green, where the literary entertainment of the even- ing followed. Rev. George F. Prentice, pastor of the Davenport church, who is president of the club, presided last evening.
 Miss Constance Field. who sang in place of Miss Ella Crane, who was unable to be present, rendered two beautiful solos which were received with hearty appreciation. Her first se- lection was Roeckels Coming of the King" which she followed with "The Bird With the Broken Pinion," a beau tiful song by the late Herbert Johnson of this city. George T. Burke, the excellent organist of the West Haven church, also played several fine selec- tions.
 The speaker of the evening was Mrs. Frederick Nathan of New York, presi- dent of the Consumers league, who had for her subject "The Philosophy of Clothes" Her address was most en- tertaining one and her hearers were very appreciative Mrs. Nathan is an excellent speaker and her splendid de- livery added to the delightful impress sion she created
 The June meeting of the club will probably be held with the North Ha- ven church. The speaker is to be the Rev. N. G. Puddefoot, field secretary of the Congregational Home Mission- ary society.

DOGS FOR MILITARY PURPOSES

Useful in Scouting, Carrying Mes-
 sages, as Sentries in Ambulance Work
 and in Anbuscades.
 "The extraordinary characteristics of the dog, it's Watchfulness, doeility, the acuteness of his senses, his affection for mankind and his speed enable him to ibe of immense value for military pur- poses, and the employment of dogs for such purposes can hardly be called an invention of modern times" says Major E. HI. Richardson in the Nineteenth Century. Far back in the mists of an. tiquity we gather that the usefulness of the dog as an auxiliary in war was known, and to the ancients belongs the honor of having first used dogs in this connection. They used them for the war dog of to-day, in consequence of a completely different method of warfare, has to fulfill totally different duties, and as a means of actual attack or de- fence is out of the question. ..
 "The chief work of war dogs on the march is scouting. In a column with out cavalry the duties of infantry are so severe that it is almost impossible for them to execute the work; enor- mous fatigues are imposed on the ad- vance gaurd, the scouts being obliged to double out continually and reconnoi- tre bushes, streams, woods, swamps, etc., and then rejoin the main body, probably stale already, owing to forced marches and short rations. The fatig- uing work causes many casualties. Moreover the scouts are so much taken up with the difficulties of the ground that they cannot properly look out for the enemy hence grave consequences are probable and an ambuseade of the enemy, not properly reconnoitered may suddenly fall on the column with seri- ous results especially in wooded dis, tricts and in hilly country, where obsta- cles hinder scouting. It3is here where the war dog, while performing the du- ties at greater speed, would secure the safety of the troops and inspire the scouts with confidence, being able to

nent. become the subject Of the most exhaustive experiments. Whoever is acquainted with the medical organiza- ton of an army will rcognize what an important part the ambulance dog has to play especially owing to the improve ments and perfection of modern fire arms, which have in like manner made increased demands on the powers of the ambulance corps, army medical stan. The area Of modern battlefield, owing 10 the innovations in long range weap- ons as means of attack and defence. is enormously increased, and if in this area there are difficult places, such as declivities, woods, etc, the work of the stretcher bsarers is greatly hindered and delayed. Indeed. it will be even possible that wounded men, through loss of blood and weakness unable to call for aid and unable to move, will be overlooked by the stretcher bearers,
 and will only be found when too late.
 Tn savage warfare dogs are extrsme-
 ly ussfuI and have been used by
 both French and Russians. The gener- al system of savage warfare lies in
 ambuscades. In Mexico, in the guerilla
 war, a colonel of volunteers trained
 some dogs, who gave the gusrilla in surgents a warm time. If they tried ambushes they were scented out and their plans failed; if they retreated into the depths of the woods they were tracked out by the dogs and attacked when preparing to come for the night. War dogs ought thus to b. able to pre- vent the enemy from creeping up in the
 grass and surpriseing, giving timely ] warning: and the march of troops in thick country should bt. covered by 1 dogs, and they should also follow up
 the. scent of the retreating foe. In ac- ton, dogs are also trained to carry ann
 munition to the firing line, their size
 rendering them smaller target than a
 man.

An Offender Arrested

On Tuesday evening. Sheriff
Mauzy of Pendleton came to Mont
erey and got lodging" for an aged
offender named Yokum, whom he
had in charge. 1t seems that Yok-
UNI had been dealing out ardent
spirits along the Pendleton border,
and, upon the strength of unp|eas-
ant rumors relative to his arrest,
took leave Of Pendleton, and re-
sumed business near Marlinton. He
was located, however, and, as above
stated, was taken back to Franklin
after rest of one night in oul
county Jail. Yokum is a man OF
more than fifty years.

Accidents.
hn announcement,
recently

The announcement, recently
made. that an auto line is to be es-
tablished between Stanton and
Monterey, has provoked comment
from every phase and standpoint.
One of our local wits gave a
unique summing up of the situa-
ton as follows. IAN automobile
line across the-mountains will not
only put us in touch with the out
side world, but in closer touch with
the next world"
The contention that accidents,
| incident to this sort Of travel, are
due to reckless running, and do
not exceed the proportion shown
in other modes is borne out by re
liable statistics, and our own obser-
walton tends to confirm the theory.
Accidents, serious and otherwise,
happen to us in every walk and
calling, and at times and ways ell
tirely unexpected.
Mr.. II. M. Slaven, accompanied
by Mr.. Cam Arbogast, was retur-
ming on Sunday from a trip to
Durbin, when the seat on the hand
some little run-a-bout, in which
they were riding, broke its insecure
fastening, toppled back and split
them out. The seat was replaced,
fastend as well as could be away
from a shop, and, few miles fur
Their on, Mr.. Slaven being on the
seat alone at the time, the same
thing occurred again, and with
more serious results. In his semi
helpless condition, it is remarkable
that he escaped as he did, falling
both times on his head and should
ers. As it was, he escaped with a
fracture and sprain of his left an
kle. and few bruises.
Apropos of the subject of acci-
dents, another experience is noted,
which, however resulted in no hurt
or serious loss, yet all the needed
liabilities" were present. On
Monday morning, Mr.. Gross took
on his accustomed load at the
post-ofiie, and, with DR.. Bush as
a passenger, started on his long,
familiar drive, under omens most
suspicious. Just below the Meth
odist church, while going at a brisk
trot, one of the horses tipped shls
toe, fell broad side, the hack and
its freight passing entirely over
him and stripping off the harness.
Only a short delay was OCCASION
ed, but all this goes to show that
"accdents viii! happen" and, nc
matter how, when or where we 60
and we can only strive to reduce,
them to minimum by care, prd'
dence and foresight.
