POINT RAISED AT AlNswoRTH
Dog Trainer of Omaha, Temporarily
Stopping in Town, Resists Payment
Case Appealed to District Court.

Ease Appeared TO DIStTlCt 'Court.
Ainsworth, Neb., Nov. 23.-Special
to The News: An interesting point was
raised in Justice Potter's court here
yesterday, involving the question of
whether city has the right to assess
dog tax against a nonresident own

shall against Theodore Wiseman, dog
trainer from Omaha, who came here
last July and practiced his profession
in the country south of town. Last
Saturday the defendant was making
arrangements to go to his home in
Omaha, when the marshal tried to take
his dog and kill it or else payment of
$l00 license. Wiseman claimed that
the city had no right to collect this tax
as he Is nonresident, and the ordi-
nances say that all resident owners
must pay tax or have their dogs
killed. Then the marshal had Wise
man arrested for resisting an officer
and the court fined him $500 and
costs. J. A. Douglas of Bassett, who
represented Wiseman, appealed the
case to the district court, which con.

old FRISCO
DEPOT BURNED
Early Sunday Morning Blaze
Endangers Entire Business
Part Of the City.

About $3.50 Sunday morning fire was
discovered in the west end Of the old
Frisco depot that was being moved a
block west from the new depot. The
fire alarm was sent in and the fire
wagon came laundering up the
street in an incredibly short time.
Hose attachments were made at two
hydrants and two streams Of water
were playing on the flames within a
few minutes. The old building was
pine throughout and being aiire inside
nothing could be done in the way Of
saving the building but the fire de-
partment simply drowned out the
flames as the building collapsed The
whole business portion Of the city was
in danger had not the fire company
been on hand. 1t was fine work and
indicated efficiency and skill on the
part Of the fire boys. A stiff north
wind was blowing a regular gale but
the great streams of water from the
two hose soon began to tell and the
flames gradually ceased.

Jules Curron

derful tales about the inventive ability
of this man, and, wishing personally to
test his skill, he sent him parcel con-
tanning few copper nails, some wood
clippings. a piece of broken glass, an
old cracked china cup, some wire and
few cribbage board pegs. Accom-
panying this was command to make
them into timepiece.
Within a remarkably short time the
car received them back in the shape
of watch. The case was made OF
china, and the works of the other odds
and ends. So pleased and astonished
was the car that he sent for the man,
comforting several decorations upon
him.

The Obtuse Britisher.

Que of the American packing indus
try springs one of the popular banter
ings of the Briton who cannot see a
joke. What he does not see is really
the turn Of the phrase. One of the
usual anecdotes. for instance, turns
upon the strange phrase, 'he put for
the door," and the Englishman never
sees the point but then he does not
know the idiom. The packing joke Is
this: A Briton, admiring the enor-
nous production of fruit in Califor-
mia valley, asks how so much is dis
posed Of well" replies the Ameri-
can, I'VE eat what we can, and we can
what we can't" The inquirer is be-
wildered, but only because he would
have SAID "tin," instead of can" In
some versions he is represented as re-
peating the sentence with tin" for
"can," as specimen Of Americas
humor.

White Robin in Maine.

An albino robin which has mated
and built nest in Bangor is causing
considerable comment among bird low
ers and observant people generally,
says the Kennebec Journal.
The bird. while not literally white
from head to foot, has enough light
feathers to make him a decided curl
osity, not to say freak. The whole
back of the robin is white. Many Ban
gor people have seen the bird, which
is quite tame and has nest near the
house of the Hon. F. A. Wilson, at the
cornor of Broadway and Somerset
streets.
The little curiosity may be seen
nearly any day in that vicinity digging
for worms or going about his daily
routine in a quiet and gentlemanly
manner, not at all as freaks usually
act.
