Dog Has Wooden Leg.

There Is a little dog out in German
town which has been the cause OF
much amusement during the past
year, and all because he wears a wood
en- leg. About a year ago the dog,
which belonged to a young lady Of
about five years, was run over by a
trolley car. it's leg being clearly amp
utated at a point about half way down
The young lady was, of course, grief
stricken, so her father, instead OF
shooting the dog. as he had at first In
tended, bandaged up its leg with the
result that in time the animal recov-
cred. For a while II limped around
on three legs. but its progress was
very painful 20 behold.
Then the little girls father evolved
the idea OF constructing a wooden. leg.
He did this with great care and at
tached II by straps so as TO make It
absolutely secure. The dog did not
appreciate the advantages of a wood
en- leg for some time, and tried hard
to get il of. even going so far as to
gnaw at II viciously. Gradually, how
ever, enlightment came upon him,
and soon he was putting II to its full
use. Now be can get around on IL as
well as most dogs can on the legs
that nature gave them, but the sight
Is strange one, and the little girl and
her dog excite mirth wherever they
go.-Philadelphia Record.

DEFICIT OF $1O0,35O.
Railroad officials Believe That Better
Time Is Coming.

Although a loss Of s1O9,350 Is
shown In comparison to the CORE
spending week of last year, officials
of the Louisville and Nashville rail-
road are fairly well pleased over the
statement of comparative operating
revenues of the road for the second
week OF October.
The report shows that total reve-
nues OF the week aggregate $780,
l65; the total revenues for the first
tko weeks of October amount to
$l,S9i.925. While the deficit in rev.
enues is comparatively large, officials
declare that the general situation
seems hopeful and they expect an in
crease in business within the next two
weeks which will counterbalance the
deficit to date.

TURF CRISIS
KENTUCKY COMMISSION MAY
CALL ON AID OF MILITIA.
Injunction Proceedings and Court
Clashes on Tap i'm Effort TO Test
Right Of Bookies.

Cincinnati, Oct. 2O.-The license
OF the Latonia Jockey club, holding
its fall meeting at Latonia, was re-
voke1 by the Kentucky racing com
mission, because the track refused to
obey mandates of the commission
which ordered that bookmakers be
barred.
The races were held after the COM
missions order was promulgated.
This is direct violation of the state
law, which gives the racing commits
sion power to act In cases OF this
kind.
After revoking the license OF the
Jockey club the racing commissions
authority ceases and the matter
passes into the hands OF the sheriff
OF Kenton county, Ky, who, II Is
sai1. will not act.
In the event the sheriff does not
close the track. 1t Is said Governor
Wilson will order out state troops to
close the track.
Harvey Myers, who succeeded JOS
eph Hhinock as president of the
Jockey club, appeared before the rae
ing commission today. After a spirit
ed argument of an hour and half
Myers was called back into the room
and told that the license of the track
had been revoked.
The order OF the commission Is as
follows:
1.-THE license granted the Latonia
Jockey club for the year 1908 Is here
by revoked. to take effect on Tues
day. October 20. 1908. at 1 o'clock,
for the reason that the commission
believes the continuance with the
system OF bookmaking as at present
conducted at Iatonia is not conducive
TO the best interests OF legitimate rae
ing and that great harm will ensue
10 such system OF betting is con-
tinued."
Governor Wilson declared over the
telephone today that the law would
De enforced, and II II was shown TO
him that Latonia was disobeying the
law he would order the arrest OF
track managers.
The action of the commissioners.
although not unexpected, caused con-
sternatlon among the horsemen and
bookmakers. The jockey club Will
not apply for an injunction restrain
ing the commission from interfering
with the present meeting, and the
matter will be fought out in the
courts.
Treasurer Hachmeister declares
that n beokmakers cannot operate

Graves an Echo Of Hearst.

There was a time when John lem
pie Graves had the respect It the
people of the South, but he is fast
losing it. His association with one
W. R. Hearst seems to have led him
astray and made him careless with
the truth. in a speech at St. Paul,
Mimi, Tuesday night he made him
self an echo of Hearst by repeating
Hearst's lie that Bryan is panderlng
to the gamblers of Wall Street. the
Standard on company and preda-
tory wealth. Hearst knew this
charge was lie when he originated
it and John Temple Graves knew 1t
was lie when he repeated it. But
poor little John Temple has to earn
the wages that Hearst pays him,
and it seems that he is willing to lie
or do anything to- please his master.
The poor little fellow has degenerat-
ed into a complete tool of Hearst.
