Death Reward Of Dogs Devotion.


Pete was the name Of smart dog
In the Loudner family back Of Millrift.
Pa. The Loudners are Germans. and
the youngest Is three years old and a
boy. Because the dog was too clever
II was killed.
But Il was a mistake.
The child and the dog wandered
some distance from the house In the
afternoon, romping with a rubber ball
fastened to the end OF stick. Sud-
denly the dog appeared at the house
and ran about the rooms, and, barking
and yelping, pulled at the women's
dresses and otherwise acted In such
a strange manner as to cause them to
scream Mad dog" and seek safety
on chairs.
George Loudner. attracted by the
noise, came into the house and shot
the dog, Then the child was missed
and search was instigated They
found the youngster In high glee at
the antics of big rattlesnake which
was playing with the rubber ball.
The boy would reach out the whip
with the ball attached and hit the
snake on the head The reptile
would resent the attack. plainly trying
to sink its fangs into the rubber globe,
all the while rafting and coiling and
uncoiling as the ball circled about It.
Mr. Louder killed the snake. The
log was not mad, but had tried In
vain to get some one to aid the child,
and met Its death by being too faithful.

WILL BEGIN
BEET DIGGING
Several Hundred Samples
Taken From Different
Fields.

The sugar company has taken
several hundred samples Of beets
from different fields, and after
testing them finds that they are
ready to work up. Notices have
been sent to farmers who have
early beets notifying them to
commence digging AT ONCE.
Those who start then will soon
be through with their children
and can send them to school
earlier. 1t will also be easier to
get help when only part Of the
farmers are digging than when
all are notified. Some may say
they will lose in tonnage by start
ing early; but they will have the
advantage of long days and bet
ter weather and may only dig one
or two acres out of five, ten or
twenty. By that time hundreds
wish to start; but if those who
were notified are digging, the
company does not stop them to
Jet others dig. When the farmer
considers the benefit to his land
by digging early, having his
children in good weather to help
him, getting their money early in
the fall, having no mud or snow
to work in, escaping cold hands
and feet, having their fall plow-
ing done, etc, it more than makes
up for the shrinkage. Last spring
the company gave the farmers
until March 18th TO make their
contracts, and up to that date
made contracts with every farmer
who applied. At that date the
company had as many acres as
could be worked, but many Of
their old customers neglected tc
take contracts at that time and
as they had raised beets for sew
eral years the company desire,
to contract with them and do the
best they could with the beets.
This gave us many hundred acres
more than the company had de-
cided to take, hence the necessity
of starting early in order 10
avoid the great loss which the
factory has sustained in other
years through receiving frozen
beets and having them rot on
their hands.
This year the company viii
start its run Sept. l4th. Sup
pose some farmer should say
eff l am notified ! will not dig"
If he refuses to comply with the
terms of the contract could !e
compel the compan! to take his
beets if they were overstocked
Two years ago we had wet fall,
and many sugar beets spoiled,
but the company took all the
farmers beets and paid $3.50 per
ton for them. Now if the COM
pany lives up to its agreement,
why should not the farmer fill
his?
The following clause is in the
beet contract which every grow
err signed: "And the said grow
er further agrees to dig and de-
liver the beets growing on such
land at such time and in such
quantities as the said field super
intendent or his assistant shall
direct" Now let every farmer
who gets a notice dig at once and
start the factory early. II
through sickness or other I'M
avoidable cause a farmer could
not dig, he should confer with
the sugar company and make
different arrangements. Some CT
the weather prophets are predict
ing an early and severe winter.
We have already had several
heavy frosts at night, and The
mountains covered with snow.
II those who get notice dig at
once they are safe, let the wealth.
er be as it may.

NEGRO SOLDIER
HAS CONFESSED
Continued from Page u
BoYd Conyers' Story.

Following is the outline of the out
rage, in brief, as related by Conyers
in his confessions to William Lawson
and J. Herbert Browne, secret gov
eminent agents, whose affidavits are
attached to the reports sent to the
senate:
The rumors of trouble over the as
signment of colored troops to
Brownsville were circulated before
the troops left fort Niobara and prep
arations were made among the men
to get even with the crackers, as
the whites were called. Some car
tridges were held out at range prac-
tice. but more en- route to Browns
vile. Pretense was made that they
were given away at stations along the
road. Some were, but a large num-
Der were secreted.
At inspection in Brownsville Lieut.
Lawrason. Company B, threatened
punishment to the men who were
short of ammunition, but nothing
was done about it and the deficiency
was supplied. The friction with the
citizens of Brownsville began at once.
In Boyd Conyers' language, 'whiskey
made all the trouble. If We hadn't
been drinking We would not have had
the nerve to shoot up the town.
It was agreed at a gathering of a
