During a visit to a friend In the
country Sir Henry Hawkins had an ad-
T venture with a boarhound which he
describes in his "Reminiscences"
There was an enormous Danish boar
hound which had, unperceived by us,
followed Mrs. Harlstone from the H.
brary. He pushed by without cere-
mony and proceeded until he reached
the lady, who was some distance In
advance. He then carefully took the
skirt Of her dress with his mouth and
carried it like an accomplished train
bearer until she reached the bottom Of
the stairs and the garden, when he let
go the dress and gazed as ans interest
ed spectator.
But before we parted from. Mrs.
Harlstone and while 1 was taking to
her felt my hand in the bOarhound's
mouth, and pretty capacious mouth
it was, for seemed to touch nothing
but his formidable fangs. So soft was

reminder. 1 knew animals too we'll to
attempt to withdraw it, and preserv.

have given myself credit for.
While 1 was wondering what the
next proceeding might be Mrs. Harl-
stone begged me to be quite easy and
on no account to show any opposition
to the dogs proceedings, in which case
she promised that he would lead me
gently to the other side of&the lawn
and leave me without doing the least
harm.
AS was being led away Mrs. Harl-
stone said: "Do exactly as he wishes.
He is jealous of your talking to me,
and any one who does SO he leads
away to the other side of the garden"
Having conducted me to the remot-
est spot he could find, he opened his
huge jaws and released my hand, wag-
ged his tail and trotted off, much pleas
ed with his performance.

MADE A BAR
To Army and Navy Officers Seeking
 Better Jobs.

Oyster Bay, uly 7--An important ur- der was issued tonight by President Roosevelt, announcing the policy here- after to be followed by the adminislra- ton in the making of appointments or promotions in the military branch of the government The president orders that if any officer of the army OF navy hereafter shall solicit influence. asid. from the records of his service on file in the war or navy departments. In or der to obtain promotion or assignment he shall be debarred thereby from the advancement of the detail which he Is seeking.
 The order says: '-I'he records of the war department contain full and de- tailed information in respect to the character, capacity. military services and general attainments of all offlcers composing the military establishment The records so obtained fully set forth the relative merits of officers of an grades Of rank in the several brauches of the line and staff and enable all va cancies which occur in the military service to be filled after a careful cuuc- pariSon of the records on those officers who are eligible under the law for par ticular assignments or details.
 The records of the navy department furnish evidence of the character. ser vice and ability of all officers of the navy, founded upon official reports of those officers whose duty it k to make them- The reports are sufficiently spe- cific to enable the department To de- termine the particular duty which each officer is fitted to perform without the intervention of requests. claims OF i'm nuences from sources outside the navy.

A GAIN FOR POWERS
The Famous Kentucky Case in U. s.
 Circuit Court.

MaysviIle. Ky, July 7.-CaIeb Pow CTS is to be tried in the United States courts for compIicity in the murder of Wm. Goebel at Frankfort This was settled here today when United States District Judge Cochran announced that he would take Jurisdiction in the case as has been requested by the attorneys for Powers.
 Judge Cochran's opinion holds that the prosecution against Caleb Powers pending in the Scott county circuit court has been removed to the Unit ed States circuit court for the east ern district of Kentucky by the remov- al proceedings in Powers behalf un- der section 641. United States revised statutes, and sustains his action for a writ of habeas corpus to transfer his custody from the state of Kentucky to that of the United States.
 The ground upon which the court makes its findings is that from the pe- tition for the removal and transcript of record in the state courts, it ap- pears that the defendant has been de- nied the eCual protection of the laws by the Scott county circuit court and cannot enforce his rights thereto in the court of appeals because of section PSI of the criminal code as construed by that court.
 The court further holds that the de- cisiOn of the state courts against the validity of Taylor's pardon is not a good ground for removal as it feels bound by that decision as to the va lidity of the pardon and the validity thereof is not secured by the equal protection of the last clause of the fourteenth amendment.
