A Mann.rIy Dog.

We have two dogs, Neptune ana
Victor. They are very bright, lntel-
ligent ones, and have been taught TO
carry different articles, such as let
tiers and papers.
A neighbor, Mr.. W., had frequently
let Victor carry a paper Or bundle LOT
him, and one day he gave him paper
to carry. Arriving at our house, IN
stead Of giving up the paper as usual,
Victor sprang over the fence and sat
down in the yard, as if to say, Let 5
see you get it," No coaXing on the
part of Mr.. w. was Of any avail.
Neptune, who was sitting on the
doorstep watching proceedings, got
down, walked over to Victor, and gave
a sharp bark, as if commanding him
TO drop it, which he promptly did.
Neptune picked it up, walked out
through the gap in the fence, and gave
It to Mr.. VIC. Louise Higgins, in

Pauperized Squirrels.

It is a lamentable fact that
the squirrels in Central Park. New
York City, have lost the good sense
they we're born with Formerly
they were very provident creatures.
like their ancestors, and diligent-
ly gathered acorns and chestnuts,
and stored them away in the
nts, and stored them away in the
ground and in hollow trees, against
stormy days of winter. But recently
feeding the squirrels in the Park has
come TO be fad; and the last two or
three years, all summer long and
through the autumn, hundreds Of peo-
pie have been accustomed to carry
with them bags Of nuts with which
to feast the squirrels. The result IS
what might have been expected; the
squirrels find life SO easy and food
SO constantly urged upon them that
this year they put away no food; and.
when a great storm came some time
ago, and the snow was very deep.
and their fair-weather friends did not
appear, the little fellows came near
starving 1 lie city found it necessary
to send bags Of nuts to be fed to the
little creatures by the policemen. All
this goes to prove that squirrels are
like human people. 1t is not good
for them to have life made too easy.

The Children Of a King.

One cold, wet day our city mission
airy climbed the steps of a house he
had not visited before. He had heard
OF some little ones up in the garrett
room and his visit was for them.
The steps were very steep and very
dark. and the missionary had to
tumble about for the mandle of the
door. He knocked, but there was no
answer, SO he opened the creaking
door and walked in.
"Oh, please don't make such a
noise, sir" said sweet little voice,
you'll wake the prince"
You may imagine how astonished
the visitor was to hear Of a prince in
that half-lighted, bare room. Present
ly he saw through the dim light a
little wooden cradle, with a poor skin
and-bones baby in it, and at the foot
of it girl about six years old anx-
iously rocking it to and fro.
You see, the prince is very hun

Discharged From Service.

MILAN, September 9-The Corriere dells
Sera has received a letter from Hodeidah,
stating that serious excuses have been
committed by discharged Turkish soldiers,
who arrived there from the inland part of
Yemen, but were prevented from going
home Immediately by the lack of steamers.
When one steamer arrived 900 soldiers
embarked thereon. several with their
sweethearts, and terrible quarre!s broke
out on board. There We're ten people killed
or wounded. Two women were thrown
overheard alive to the sharks surrounding
the steamer. Then came $500 more dis
charged men, who, not finding any trans
ports, cut the water pipes, attacked the
shops and destroyed everything within
reach.
They also seized the general in command
of the troops and dragged him about amid
coarse insults. Some of the officers wives
were captured and carried into the
mosques. where they were outraged, For
this offense to religion the Arabs armed
themselves and attacked the soldiers, kill
ing eight and wounding fourteen. Three
Arabs died.
More discharged soldiers are expected
and therefore the town is greatly excited
Hitherto Europeans have been respected
but the Italians have asked the governor
of the colony of Erythrea to send a ship
for their protection. English subjects have
also asked for protection.

NEW YORK, September 9.-The air locks
at each end Of the Belmont tunnel tubes
under the East river are being taken out,

tubes having advanced to a point where
the use of compressed air is no longer

A number of new cars for use in the
tunnel are stored in this borough. They are
fitted for overhead trolley wires, which is
taken indicating that they are to run
to the surface in Long Island City. How the
cars are to be placed in the tunnel appears
to be a problem, because the company of
ficials have announced that there would
be no connection in Long Island City be-
tween the tunnel tracks and those of the
surface trolley lines. temporary track
will have to be laid at the Long Island City
end in order to get the cars into the tubes
and that track may have to be made per-

Island Contest.

NEW YORK, September 0.-Four men be-
longing to an organization known as the
Marathon Swimmers started to swim from
the Battery to the foot of West 23d street,
Coney Island, distance of fifteen miles.

finished alone in four hours and fifty-two
minutes.
Boats with physicians aboard followed the
swimmers from the Battery and took on the
three men who dropped out in the course
of the swim. Brown remained strong to
the finish, but found it agreeable to take a
long rest at the Laurel Hotel after he had
come out of the water.
Those who accompanied him said that he
had broken the worlds records for a fifteen
mile swim, but this point is open to ques-
ton since the contest was not conducted
under the auspices of any credited athletic

GAVE LIFE TO SAVE TRAIN.
Track Walker Killed While Repairing
Wreckers' Damage

P1TTSBURG, September 9.-That another
attempt was made recently to wreck a fast
train on the Pennsylvania railroad was re-
vealed Saturday night by the death of Fran
cesca Levita, who received fatal injuries in
saving the trainload of passengers.
Levita, who was a track walker died at
Irwin, Pa. -Four nights ago he found all
the spikes and fishplates at a rail joint re-
moved. He set about to repair the dam
age, as a fast train was almost due. He
was still at his work and had fixed the
tempered rail joint SO that the train might
pass when the train hit him. Had Levita
not stuck to his job the train with 300 pas
sengers would have been sent over high

BURTON'S CLEVELAND FIGHT
UP AGAINST A HARD FORMATION
WITH TOM JOHNSON. :.
President Roosevelt and Other Prom
nent Men May Take Part in the
Mayoralty Campaign.

CLEVELAND, September 9.-The contest
between Mayor Tom L. johnson and Repre-
sentative Theodore E. Burton as the dem
ocratic and republican nominees respective
ly, for mayor of Cleveland promises to be
the most exciting political event in the his
tory of this city, not excepting campaigns
some years ago in which the late Senator
Hanna the central figure.
The Endorsement of Mr.. Burton's candi-
dacy by President Roosevelt, it is sa d, may
be followed by speeches here by him later
on in the campaign. The President is to
start from Cleveland on the coming trip
of the inland waterways commission on its
tour of inspection and investigation on the
great lakes and down the Mississ .pp river,
and republican leaders believe that while
here he may be induced to make a speech
urging .BurtonS election.
The democratic executive committee has
called the city convention, at which Mayor
Johnson and the ticket with him is to be
named, for September 49, Mayor Johnson
has declined to discuss the matter since the
announcement of Burton a candidate
but it is said he has assurances that W.
j. Bryan and other leading democrats from
various parts of the country will come here
to make speeches in his behalf.
Need Strong Republican.
Cleveland is regarded as a normally re-
publican city by from 1900 to 10000 ma
jority in national elections, and up to the
advent of Mayor Johnson, six years ago,
the republicans had ruled the city and
county for years with the exception of
isolated cases, such the election of
Mayor Farley following the defeat of the
MckiSSOn administration and the rehabili-
tation of the faction led by Senator Hanna.
In the last two campaigns made by John
son he succeeded in increasing the plurality
which he gained in his first election six
years ago, and in his race two years ago
he piled up a plurality of nearly 1900.
The county as well the city admnistra-
ton has, as result of the Johnson leader
ship, become nearly solidy democratic.
In selecting Mr.. Burton to oppose Mayor
johnson the democratic leaders admit that
the republicans have put forward their
strongest man, and while they assert John
son Will win they concede that it Is any
bodys race.
1t was Burton who defeated johnson after
the latter had served two terms in Con-
gress, having been previously elected as
democrat in a district which was largely re-
publlcan. Since that campaign Mr.. Burton
has continued to represent the district in
congress and has been returned biennally
without opposition in his own party and
either unopposed by the democrats or with
only perfunctory opposition.
Mr.. BurtOns political managers assert
that his probable candidacy for the seat of
Senator + oraker is in no way affected by
ms race for mayor whatever the result of
the election in November may be- and that
he viii retain his seat in Congress and the
craftsmanship of the rivers and harhors,
committee at least until after the mayoral-
ty election.
