Try Dog for his Life.

Cincvinnatt, o., Oct. 19.--Jacl,
Just a yellow mongrel owned by John
Hetzler, peddler, will be tried for
his life before Magistrate Leuders to-
day.
Some time ago the young son OF
Betzler's neighbors teazed Jack, and
the dog bit him. The neighbor Sc
cured warrant, charging Betzler
with harboring a vicious dog.
When the oAne was called about
two weeks ago Jack appeared with
his master to answer to the charge
The yellow cur seemed to realize that
he was on trial for his life and that II
he was found guilty OF being vicious
he would be taken out by one OF the
blue coated policeman and shot. He
shook hands with the Judge and gaz-
cd at him beseechingly out OF his
soft brown eyes.
Judge Lenders evidently found the
case too deep and complex to be de-
cided off-hand and postponed the
hearing until today.
Both Jack and his master expect q
favorable verdict.

example of Spanish tyranny Is the
statement of M. Leon Furnemont, a
member OF the Belgium parliament,

the life of King Alfonso. NJ Furne-
mont has issued a circular appealing
to "all liberty loving people in be-
half of Senior Ferrer. He says:
"The modern school was closed be-
cause It's scholastic methods were bas
cd on the latest discoveries of mod
ern science and were purely secular
in their nature, thus bringing down
upon It the hatred of the clerical
power. which has controlled all of
the educational forces in Spain for
many centuries. The corps of pro-
fessors of the modern seool consisted
of some of the most distinguished
scientific men Of Spain. Now all of
the museums, libraries, property and
money Of the institution have been
seized on the flimsy and groundless
excuse that Senior Ferrer is an an
archlst. In the name of liberty /

they are alleged to have connived at
blasphemous exhibition, the mana

regular orthodox way, using the SER
vice prescribed in the Episcopal
prayer book. The managers OF the
fair declared that they knew nothing

and baptized the animals in order to
draw crowds and not through any
solleitude for the welfare Of their
