Two Dogs the Limit.

The Great Northern, Northern Pa
ci6c and 500 lines have adopted a
rule that a passenger cannot check
more than two dogs in the baggage
car. Any additional dogs that he
may have with him will have to be
sent by express. These lines enter
the best hunting fields in the United
States, and they have been slow to re.
strict sportsmen in any respect. In
fact, they have done all they could to
encourage hunters to go to the
fields. 1t is rather hard on the bag
gageman where too many dogs are
carried in his car, although he makes
quite a revenue out of the business,
for he is always given a liberal tip by
the owner of the dog carried.
Up to the present time the three
roads named have permitted hunters
to take as many dogs along as de-
sired without extra charges. It Of
ten happens that one man will want to
take three or more dogs with him, one
or two as students and the others for
actual work. In numerous instances
it has made the baggage car a verit-
able dog kennel, and the baggageman
hasn't had time or room to devote to
his regular duties. With so many
animals in the car it is hard to watch
them, and sometimes one will break
loose and then there is suit for
damages. Bird dogs are frequently
valued at hundreds of dollars, and
one of them lost is serious matter.
Hunters will not be affected: of
course, until the shooting season
opens in the fall. Those who will
run up against the new ruling first are
the dog trainers. Before the hunting
season opens the trainers take the
young and inexperienced dogs to the
country and teach them the art of
hunting. The number thus taken
ranges from three or four dogs to two
or three dozen.

Race suicide in England, as shown

that fact banishes the old theory that
population is regulated by the price of
grain. One writer says that trent, the

it than the question Of food supply.

A Story About Dumas.

Alexandra Dumas was one of the
most generous Of men. There is a
pretty story told concerning volu-
minous manuscript which his pub
Usher received from him one day.
On it he had written, SIou must
publish this novel, for which you
must give 1900 francs" 1t was
translation from the English, and
the publisher objected, explaining
that translation wasn't worth that
sum and that, moreover, he was
busy with a number of original
works. He wouldn't give more than
300 francs. every WE'LL" replied
Dumas, "put down 1900 francs to
my account. Take your 300 francs
and give the remaining 1000 to the
translator" The publisher soon
discovered that this was piece OF
noble helpfulness on the part OF
Dumas. The translator was the
widow of a friend, once well
known politician, who had died
shortly before, leaving the poor wo-.
man with a large family to support.
