PHOENIX DOGS hAM
 BULLET PROOF HIDES
There is Only one Sure Way of Killing
 Them and That is Through Kindness.

The killing of dogs with powder and lead has practically become a lost art, at least with the Phoenix police de- partment. Something always happens in the dogs favor or the dog proves to be an animal with charmed life. Yesterday Officer Perrin had occasion to kill a cur and tying him In the base ment Of the city hall he whanged away but the dog was an artful dodger and kept out of the way of the bullets until the officer exhausted his supply and had to wait for the marshal to come and restock the ammunition room. Two days before Officer Troutman killed a dog that only remained dead q few minutes and had to be shot again later by citizen. unofficially.
 The most remarkable incident of all occurred Wednesday and involved all the rest of the police force not men toned above. except Captain Hi Me Donald who is too tender-h hearted to kill dog anyhow. An effort was made to tell the story in yesterdays issue but through some inadventence the paragraph containing the best part of it was lost in the shuttle and here it Is in full:
 There has been a homeless and worthless dog haunting Washing ton street for a long time and Tuesday night Policemen Leech and Byers took him over to the city hall basement and killed him. letting the carcass lay where the dog fell. A cou- pie of hours later they saw dog on the street that looked familiar but they could not be convinced it was their victim of an earlier hour until they went to look for the carcass and found it missing By that time the dog had escaped them.
 Wednesday about midday a tele- phone message summoned the city marshal to the blaming mill to kill a dog. On arriving he recognized the animal the night police had been prac- ticing on. saw his swollen eyes and the wounds in his head. He shot him properly. just as a dog should be shot, and he has killed many a one. Then he dragged the carcass to the roadside where the garbage man could get it easily. About , o'clock another mes sage came that the dog had returned to life and was dragging himself around in a pitiable way. This time Officer Sullivan was sent to try his hand and he thinks he has done a good job. Anyhow after he killed the dog he tied its legs together so it will be harmless in the event of a reawaken- ing.
 It has been demonstrated that there

 The play is full of fun and of de- lightful surprises. MI. Woodruff.

 sonation of a whole-souled college man, willing 10 do anything. even to remain
 ing in a false light, for those he cares
 for. He is d big blond with good ap- pearance and a good voice, as was
 evidenced on the several occasions
 when he led the college songs, but the
 chief charm of his acting is in his ad- r1irable representation of the hale-fel-
 low yet sterling qualities of Tom
 Brown. the college man. The satis- faction of the audience was evidenced at the close of the third act. when
 they insisted upon him making a speech. which he did briefly, referring to his attendance of the Schuman- Heink concert. and lowing to Mrs. Schuman- Heink, who occupied a box ldlSl HlSnl.
 Ranking along with Mir. WOodruffs presentation was that of Miss Helena Byrne, who made a bewitching ap-. pearance and added her full share to
 the success which met the initial per 1 formance of the play. Probably the ] hOnors were due next in order to Louis 1 Haines, who, as Hubby" Anderson, l furnished many of the ludicrous and droll incidents of the performance. Eugene O'Brien, as Claxton Maddern. and Franklin Jones. as John Cart
 wright, Browns chums, both had con- | spicious roles. and both added much to | the making of a genuine college at
 mosphere on the stage. The same can ' be said of William Resell, who, as | Happy" Thurston. gets scorched sat- | isfying Exelyn's taste for filtration in | her efforts to make Tom Brown jeal- ous. Those who had -xninor parts did not fail to make them fit cleverly in
 with the other parts, and deserve. with others, the melt of making the play
 an unmistakable success. Among these
 were Robert Stowe Gill. Victor Colton | and Frank Willard.

are only two ways to certainly kill a Phoenix dog. One is to cut his head off while he waits and the other is to kill him with kindness. for he gets so little of it he cannot stand great deal. The most deadly blow may be dealt the animals appetite. Give Phoenix dog all he wants to eat and his days are numbered.
