for such a purpose, a compact build
ing but one in which all cases can be
handled separately.
City water mains have been extend

TRICK DOG
WINS BREAD
DAN" CLEVER CANINE TRAMP
Does Most of the Hustling for Self
and Master With Tricks-One
Time Circus Dog.
DAN" CLEVER CANINE TRAMP

Dan" is a tramp dog. whose mas
ter is Peter Mallory, some times a
sailor. sometimes circus man, and
of late n dispenser of socialism and
soclialistic literature. Dan" was
born in Australia and was carried to
this country by Mallory on shipboard
when a pup. Out on the bounding
deep Dan" became pet with the
crew and was taught tricks by the
sailors until he was as full of the
same as he is of heas. His master
forsook the "briny" and Dan" de-
veloped into a high class attraction,
and for two years was one of Norris
& Rowe's trained CANNES. The cir
Gus owners filed articles of bankrupt
cy and Mallory lost his job as can
vasman, and the dog his easy berth.
Dan" is possessed of more than
ordinary dog intelligence. He can
pick out the aces in a deck of cards,
two step on his hind legs, make a
noise like some people trying to sing,
and do the complete category of COM
mon dog tricks, such as playing dead,
and standing on his head. jumping
through hoops. and other acrobatic
stunts. Dan" with his repertoire
of tricks does most of the bread win
ming for himself and master. Dan"
as a circus dog and in other wander
ings has travelled in every state in
the Union.
If the CRIME and grease of travel
were washed out, Dan" would be
white, but at present he is a dirty
d.abbish grey, with small prospects
of ever assuming his natural color
Mallory claims that he has been Of
fered $500 for Dan" but refused to
sell. saying that he does not care to
part with an old friend Mallory
relates an instance when the dog by
barking and Juggling at him saved
his life. Dan" is Mallory's constant
companion and has evidently been
better friend to him than he has
been to himself.

.ARTESIAN WATER IN MABTON
Will Hrigate Lands Lying High
Above the Government
Ditch.

NABTON, Jan. 1.-THE well drill
ing outfit of the Mabton Drilling Co.,
which has been drilling for artesian
water along the foothills south of
Mabton, has ceased operations for
tine present. at a depth of 700 feet
on account OF desire to put small
tract OF land under cultivation the
coming season and irrigate it By
means of a deep-well pump, to pump
from the well as now sunk into a
reservoir.
1t is the intention of the company,
as stated by Manager Kelly, to con-
struct a 5000, 00O-gallon reservoir
and install a 32horsepower engine
in connection with a large deep-wcll
pump. This, it is figured. will ir"i-
gate DnroXimately 160 acres, aud
it is h. intention to put this in cul-
tivatiOn. unless they should dispose
of it. and later on continue drilling
until an artesian flow is encountered.
These operations mean much for
Mabton and the owners of land above
the government ditch, because arte-
sian water for irrigation beats even
ditch irrigation.

part of the winter. Officials of the
Northwest Light & Water Co. say
that no definite announcement can
be made as to the time work will
be started.
The poles are being distributed
over the route, but no effort is being
made TO put them up. Other mate
rial secured is being assembled in
warehouses in North Yakima.
Manager Arrowsmith, in charge of
the Strahorn interests throughout
the valley, has just returned from
Pasco and Kennewick, where he has
been experimenting the installing of
additional electrical equipment and
the placing of cable under the Co.
lumbia river. With these things sue
cessfully disposed of, it is expected
the power line will be connected up.
The company intends to furnish
electric power to practically every
city and town in the Yakima valley,
from Naches City and North Yakima
to Kennewick and Pasco. The power
line will be one of the most extern
siye electric systems on the coast.

Selma Times.
 The election at which will be pro- posed the amendment to the Constitu- tion prohibiting the sale and storage of whiskey in Alabama will be held some time about December 1. The Sel- ma Times had hoped against hope that the people of Alabama would be spar ed the agitation, the fearful campaign and it's attendant results, but the pow CTS in control of affairs in this State, with blindness that is deplorable to the welfare of the commonwealth and its citizens, decreed that this election should come. Then let 1t come. and until the battle Is over and the result is known let the welkin ring with pol itics until the people, surfeited, shall cry, Hold, enough!"
 The Selma Times does not believe that the people of Alabama, If the diff ference is borne home to them between writing in the fundamental law of the State, a police regulation where it should only. contain declarations of principle, will cast their suffrage for the proposed amendment.
 This paper has favored prohibition from the first agitation of the matter It declared its purpose soon after the present owner took charge of espous- ing the cause of prohibition shnnld a local option election be held in Selma. It was glad when the passage tne Statewide bill made unnecessary an election in Selma, and 1t does not crit icise even the far reaching and some what encroaching upon personal lib- erty laws passed by the present ses- sion of the Legislature.
 The Selma Times wants prohibition in Alabama and wants 1t tried fully and completely. However, 1t does not arrogate to itself the wisdom to see what the future may contain and 1t ut- terly disagrees with the idea that the people, while in a state of frenzy must shackle themselves at the behest of fanatical agitators so that heroic meas ures and means will have to be adopt ed to right an error should error the ex- pertinent prove in Alabama.
 Believing sincerely that the Consti- tuition Is no more the place for a law on prohibition than it is for a law against murder or that most heinous of crimes, rape, and refusing to be swept from it's feet by this hysteria of the day which, having been born with Theodore Roosevelt. has been nourish- ed through the agency of cheap imi- tators, and Is destined to die of It's own malignancy, The Selma Times will stand for the right of liberty and the pursuit of happiness as guaranteed un- der the Constitution of the United States and of the State of Alabama and battle for the welfare of its con stituency opposing making of the fun damental law of the State patchwork quilt.
