LUCKY DOGS ARE FREE

The dog catchers had to do part
OF their work over today. as abut so
dogs escaped from the wagon last
night. The wagon was filed with pup
pies, and the men did not take them
to the pen because it was late. II is
supposed that some owner of a dog
opened the door to free his pet, and
by his kindness allowed all of the
dogs to be free. The catchers are
not having much trouble of getting
dogs. for there are probably 5000
dogs in the city and not one-third
have the license paid. City Clerk
Maurice Mcintyre is still busy today
issuing licenses for the puppies.
