DOG CATCHER KELLY
 IS ON HIS JOB
So We'll is He Doing the Work Cut Out Fer Him That lis Bills are
 Questioned.

Thomas M. Kelly has made so eff cient a dog catcher that the members of the finance committee on receiving a bill of s145 for the killing of 29 tagless dogs discussed recommending the pas sage of an ordinance prohibiting the roaming of dogs about the streets in the Second district. This would make it against the law to leave any dogs where the dog catcher could get them. So far during the current year Kelly has earned $90G catching dogs and the indications are that he will add few hundred more to it before the first of next April. His bill for the killing of the 29 dogs was vouched for by the police commission and the weigher at the garbage plant but the finance committee would not pass the bill until they had a voucher for each killing.
 Bills aggregating $20,000 were ap- proved by the committee last night. Some bills from the telephone com pany showed toll line calls ag%regating $40. The committee decided that in the future it would not approve bills contracted by city officials for out of town calls unless each one was accom- panied by voucher.
 against the city is to be dispensed with in the future. The city auditor ex- plained that under existing conditions bills from various departments never go through the office of the city clerk to be advertised but go direct to the auditors office. No provision is made in the new charter for the advertising of bills against the city although the cid charter required the advertising.

POINTS OF INTEREST.

The Most Satisfactory Sale of the Sea-

Fine. warm overcoats for man. youth or boy at emphatic reductionS-SuitS too, includ- ing the celebrated Kuppenheimer and Rogers. Peet & Co. makes-generousiy reduced. Hats and separate trousers at big savings. The Library Corner store talks quality and delivers it-a trial will prove this. John F. Keane &; Co.,. Main and John streets. Fur lined coats at little prices.
 Thing & Co.'S Unloading Sale Begins
 Tomorrow.
 And it is sale that will attract great crowds. for sweeping reductions have been made on all winter foot wear. We have finished taking inven- tory, and of course find many lots that we want to dispose of to make room for OUT spring goods, now being made for us. The prices are lower than we have ever before named. for we simply will not carry over any winter stock It means a loss to us, to be sure. but it will be the publics gain. Beside our own stock. we received the surplus stock from our Boston wholesale house and we have put on prices that will unload them quickly. We reserve nothing in winter footwear. The chief feature of merit about this sale is that all the shoes offered are clean. new and up-to-date. This is not a sale of old dead stock, held in dull season to force business. but it's regular after a ool lyo shoes. No person with an economical turn of mini can well afford to over look the many excellent advantages offered by this great unloading sale, advantages that apply to men, women and children. Sale starts tomorrow morning at Things shoe store. 1153 Main street.

BRIGHT Prospect at Yale.

After an investigation of conditions
at the differen. universities in the east
one is impressed with the fact that
Yale is probably better equipped than
any of the other teams. This is due
to the fact that the Ellis have lost
hardly any of their 1908 veterans, only
four having graduated This leaves
the blue with an unusually fine nu-
cleus and with the excellent coaching
which Yale is sure to get the Ellis are
certain to put up strong fight to win
back the premiership of the eastern
college gridiron.

having graduated. The veterans in

ends of great ability. At quarter Yale
has three first class men, all of whom
should profit by their experience of
last year. These are Johnson. Corey
and Bingham. The backs include
Murphy. Daily, Philbin. Field and
Coy. Last years freshman teams will
give Ellis several exceptionally good
inc men in Paul. York, Parker, Soree
and Bronson. Vaughn and Savage
are all good ends, while Merritt and
Howe at quarter should prsh some of
the regulars. The same is true of
Kistler. Evans. Brooks, Messenger and
