AT A DOG FIGHT

The whole town Of Winfield, together
with three blood-thirsty bulldogs
Joined in a free for-an. hand TO hand
fight yesterday afternoon. The dogs
started the fight and the citizens fin
ished it The continuation Of the strife
from dog to man was caused by the
resentment Of the proprietor Of the vii
Iage grocery, named S. ". Berry
against the attack upon his animal by
two other dogs of the same size.
Being a true lover of CANNES, Berry
resented the overwhelming odds and
the consequent chewing up Of his pet
and made known his objection by en-
gazing in the conflict. The cry OF
more beef" was then raised and the
whole village took hand in the tus-
ale Contractors Prettyman and Con-
over. owners of the dogs in the major
ity. and everything coming their way
in the line Of monkey wrenches and
pitch-forks forcefully presented to
them by the angry inhabitants. Con-

The good old boat City of Traverse.
who has been anchored at the Howard
slip on Ninety Fourth street has been
stripped of all her wireless outfit and
other gambling devices and IS being
given a thorough cleaning today.
Captain Jones of the ex- gambling
boat said today that he was going to
again put the boat into the excursion
business and would probably run be-
tween Chicago and Michigan City and
other points.
When asked If there was the least
probability of the boat ever being put
into commission as a gambling ship

was a twenty to one shot it never
would at least while Shippey was chief
of police.
The first excursion trip of the boat
Will probably be made next Sunday.

armies of the Union were assembled for
the avowed and single purpose Of main
tanning the authority of the Federal gov
ernment TO enforce the laws of the land.
and to suppress ali violent resistance

was simply his purpose to see TO 1t that
the laws were faithfully executed. This
is the whole story on the Union side of
the question.
On the part of the Confederacy the war

How About the Laborers :

Editor The Washington Herald
Please permit me space through the
columns OF your valuable paper to say a
few words in behalf Of the laborers in
the various government departments who
seem to be destined TO be left out in the
shuttle for an increase (along with the
clerls) in their salaries.
Since il is the duty Of the strong TO
help the weak, and since II is the sincere
desire OF the chief magistrate Of our
prosperous Christian country that all
men should be given a square deal the
laborers in the government departments
AZ Washington do earnestly petition the
honorable committee which will soon
make its report TO Congress\ relative TO
the increase Of the salaries Of the clerks.
and some others. to be kindly and favor
ably remembered by il. The work that
is to be done by the laborers in these
departments is just as important (and
Fit must be done) O. that done By
the clerks. Why keep an intelligent
laborer back simply because he does only
rough work? There are laborers in these
departments who are capable of doing
the work Of those in the higher grades:
and there should be no law TO prevent
the heads Of the departments from Civ
ing an employe that which he merits
and deserves. The door of hope should
be left open to every employe.
The man who knows that merit counts
| for something Is worth much more than
the man who knows that Il counts for
nothing. II there are any toilers on
Uncle Sans payroll whose salaries should
be raised. the poor-paid labOTeTs deserve
10 be placed at the head OF the list The
laborer who gets but $500 per annum must
pay as much for his groceries. shoes.
clothes. coal. house rent and everything
else as the clerk who is paid 81. 800 per
annum. There Is no discount given the
poor laborers because they happen not to
be clerks, and these toilers in the various
! departments still hope that they have
some friends in Congress who viii see
10 IL that they shall have part OF the
uch-talked-of square deal" How ii
! happens that some people think that one
poor Cd clerk will surely starve TO death
at a salary of $500 per annum, while
the poor laborer will get rich, and fare
sumptuously on a mere pittance OF S60l
per annum. is a mystery beyond our
comprehension. The labOrers do not envy
the clerks chances Of a raise In their
salaries. There are a goodly number OF
clerks getting fairly good pay, and have
no families TO. care for, while the poor
tlaborers-many OF them-have large fam
lies 20 support. and must do it N what
some one has termed Starvation wages. -
So If II be the intention of those in whose
power II Is toahelp the poor and needy.
the laborers respectfully beg their earnest
and favorable consideration along that
| line.
! The poor laborers, white and black
alike. unite in begging for justice and
/ fair play at the hands Of our just law
makers

That Conspiracy.

Special 20 The Washington Herald.
The President of the United States ac-
cording to his own often-repeated decla-
ration, has been the victim of several
conspiracies. one OF which he estimated
cost five millions of dollars. and others
less expensive, # not less important.
Before these conspiracies were born
there was another conspiracy in which
the President was not the victim, but a
very willing participant II was hatched
in the Navy Department and was nursed
by the present Executive
Admiral Schley was the victim. This
conspiracy was one Of the most wicked
attempts to rob the great sea-ighter
and hero Of the laurels he honestly earn
ed in the greatest naval victory ever
achieved in the world
II was much greater than the victory
at Manila because Admiral Schley fought
in the open sea against the formidable
war vessels OF the Spanish government.

THEosoPHIc LECTURE GIVEN.
Mrs. Florence =. Du6ie Speaks on
sssfan and His Bodies


Man and His Bodies" was the subject
OF a lecture delivered by Mrs Florence
S. DufHe before the Capital City branch
of the Theosophical Society. at the Pyth-
ian Temple, last evening.
The lecturer began by explaining that
man is not TO be thought OF, or confound-
ed With. the bodies he wears, but is an
enduring immortal entity.
She said: 1--WE speak Of God as the
Divine fame. and say that man as a
spark OF that fame comes into the uni
verse Of the solar system, in order to
gain experience, wearing bodies so that
he may come into touch with the phe-
nomena of the planes Of matter"
The planes of matter were explained
as being of varying grades Of density,
the finer interpenetrating the coarser,
and each grade calculated to furnish the
ego with a body through which some
particular line Of experience can be
gained.
On the physical plane. man was de-
.scribed as having a physical body
through which he acts, its finer portion
being vehicle for the life forces from
the sun ''On the astral plane" the lee
turer said, man has a body through
which he feels: on the lower mental plane.
he has body which ne uses for con-
crete thought. and on the higher mental
plane he has a body which is the instru-
ment OF abstract thought"
Concluding, Mrs Dufie said by tho
unification Of his consciousness on all
three planes. man develops his godlike
time, and space.
