SEEMS TO BE APATHETIC

Persons Interested in Change
of System Put in an
Appearance

The dog catching committee of the
city council had a meeting, scheduled
for yesterday. but no one interested,
outside of Councilman Lyon, Tom
Vacher and w. w. Wideman, put in
an appearance
The committee is said to be agreed
upon a course of procedure which will
change the system, but has apparently
lost interest. Vacher evidently does
not intend to allow any action he is
not cognizant of, for at every rumor
of a meeting or conference he is at the

ANYTHING FOR "slR WALTER"
instance of the Popularity of Great
Scottish Author.

There is testimony to Sir Walter
SCOTS popularity with all classes in
the "Burford Papers," a chronicle of
former days and doings in England
and Scotland.
In 1881 Scott was invited to break
fast at an Edinburgh house. He was
so pleased with the Yarmouth bloat-
ers that were served piping hot,
that one of the feminine guests went
to the market the next day to order
some for him, to be sent to Sussex
place, where he was staying.
Il don't send SO far" said the fish
monger.
Il am sorry" said the lady. "The
order was for Sir Walter Scott"
The rough fishmonger started back,
then pushed forward to the lady
through his piles of fish.
For Sir Walter Scott, did you say,
madam? Sir Walter Scott? Bless my
soul, he shall have them directly If |
have to carry them myself! Sir Wal
ter Scott! They shall be with him
