LITTLE TRAMP DOG
Saved the Lives of stratford Family by
 Giving Fire Alarm.

Awakened at 3 o'clock Wednesday morning by little yellow dog he had picked up from the streets one cold, stormy day, A. Millar of King street, Stratford, sprang from his bed to find his room filled with smoke and bright red tongues Of fire shooting up rom many places in the floor. Calling his wife. Millar hastily slipped ma pair of trousers, and just as soon as his wife robed herself in a wrapper the couple made for the hall, intending to rush down the stairs to safety. The dog followed them closely. whining with fear.
 But the stairway was mass of flames and Millar and his wife were forced to retreat from them to the vacated bedroom. Seeing there was no other way of escape, Millar ripped the clothing off the bed, twisted 1t into a rope and lowered his wife from the window Then he ran into an adjoin- ing room. aroused his three children, lowered them to his wife by means of the bedclothes elevator. and before jumping himself he dropped the dog who had been following him with a blind devotion, into the arms of his wife. He tried to save some clothing. but the floor was shaking and just as he leaped from the window the floor caved in and gush of flame spurted from the place he had left
 By this time the house was a blazing mass. but N1illar. lightly clad as he was ran to the shed--which was really a sort of lean-to-and liberated his terrified horse and a pair of goats which were stabled there.
 No alarm was sent to the Stratford fire department and the few neighbors who were awakened by the crackling of the flames could do nothing to save the place. The homeless family was given shelter for the remainder of the

While the democrats have been sue

democrats ana many republicans con-

they questioned the constitutionality
and the justice of restrictions which
would not apply impartially TO all un-
qualified persons irrespective Of race
or color. The negroes now form so
