Expresses No Sorrow.

Gallagher is a short, thick-set man,
weighing close on to 200 pounds. He
smoked a cigar cheerfully after his
arrest, ard at no time expressed sor-
row because OF his deed. On the other
hand, he repeated stolidly that the
Mayor had robbed him Of a livelihood.
and that he had meant to kill him.
He is fifty-six years old
Gallagher made the following signed
confession of his act to Robert w.
Bell, acting chief CT police Of Ho-
boken:
II came over to Hoboken at $50
this morning. 1 went,to the steamship

ship Kaiser Wilhelm Der Crosse. I
met a clergyman on board Of the

He said So and shortly after fred
fired more than one shot or not.

nue.. where Gallagher lives, when told
this morning that ncr boarder had at

THURSDAY EVENING. JUNE .
Enr tha Heathen Only.

A collection was being taken up IN
a Scotch church one Sunday on be-
half of the heather. The minister
made a stirring appeal, and the ward
en- started his round with the box.
One Of the first members Of the con-
gregation to whom be offered 1t says
a writer in the Church Family News
paper, was evidently Ill disposed to the
cause.
In a stage whisper, heard alike by
congregation and pastor, this man said
In blank vernacular:
'Tak' it ava, lad. I'm not going to
give out"
I. At that period the collection boxes
were taken direct into the yestry.
Down came the preacher from the pull
Dit, went into the vestry, brought out
one of the boxes and marched straight
toward the gentleman, all the congre-
CATION imagining that the minister was
going to shame the ulbeliever into
giving something.
The clergyman offered the box to
the hereto with the naive remark:
."Tak' what thou wantest, lad. II
has been gathered for the heathen."

One afternoon. when the Duke OF

having finished duet, were sitting
down to a homely dish Of tea pro
yided by Mrs. Sullivan, the composers
mother, it suddenly occurred to her to
start the subject of family names and
titles, which puzzled the good lady
considerably.
"Sir," she said, your family name Is

But 1t is, isn't it?" she persisted.
Certainly" replied the duke, much
amused. Whats the matter with 1t.
Mrs. Sullivan
"Oh. nothing" returned the excellent
old lady musingly. Only | can't un-
derstand why you don't call yourself

Arthur wanted to explain TO her, but
the duke would not allow him to.
There's nothing TO be ashamed OF

TO THE
Owners Of Dogs!
MAYOR,S OFFICE.

Alexandria. Va, June ii, l9lO.
All persons owning or intending to
keep any animal of the dog or canine
species should come forward on or before
JUNE TWENTY-EIGHTH, 1910,
and take out license for the same from
the Auditor. After the 30th of June ali
persongowning or harboring dogs with
out the required license are subject to a
fine as the laws on the subject require OF
$500 or $500.
Complaint has been frequently made
that many persons fail TO take out their
license. and that others pay on one or
two dogs when owning and harboring
more, or who send such dogs away dur
ing the summer months and bring them
back in the fall.
Attention has been called to this eva
sion of the law, and policemen will re-
port all such cases, and fines can be inn
posed upon those who fail to take out
licenses after trial in the Police Court
In order to avoid any mistakes persons
who make application for licenses would
do well to write their names and number
of residence, street, etc, on card or
paper when making application for their
licenses 10 the Auditor.
Attention is also called TO the fact that
while the payment ofa license tax is re-
auired by the laws of the city, whether
a dog is kept on the premises of the
owner at all times or not, get the pay
ment of such tax does not entitle
the dog to the unrestricted use
of the streets and alleys of the
city, both day and night, for it is
provided by law that: THE Mayor. In
addition, at any and all times, in his dis
erection, by proclamation, shall declare
that all such dogs asabove licensed shall
..,ts01lnI and m cITnh
dogs be found running at large during
the continuance of such proclamation
without the required puzZle they shall
be seized by the police force or other
persons designated by the Mayor for
such purposes and conveyed to suitable
place and destroyed"
FIRED. j. PAFF, Mayor.
The following is copy of Section 81 OF
the License Law: "On every dog, regard
less of sex, one dollar and fifty cents"

Tho EnaIishman In a Groove.

In England ulne-tenths Of The lads
of the middle classes look forward to
nothing more than seat at an office
desk with a certain number Of shil-
lings a week for certain number OF
years. To attempt to do anything else
would be to run the risk Of social os-
tracism. A young man may loaf re-
specially on bis family. but be must
on no account start business II 1t
involves selling anything or producing
anything with his hands. That would
be bad form. 1t would be getting out
side the groove. Thus for the great
mass OF the people England holds no
romance. The lad who thinks he could
do something is discouraged. Every
thing Is so cut and dried. Every class
distinction is SO definitely marked.
The whole weight Of public opinion Is
against the smallest divergence from
the ordinary rule.-Manchester eng

Correct limo In Egypt.

The working Of the oriental mind
was delightfully."- illustrated in story
which Professor Turner told the Math.
ematical association He had been
spending the Christmas vacation In
Egypt to supervise the erection of a
telescope at Helouan. Captain Lyons,
who was In charge Of the instrument,
said that he had found that at noon
every day a gun was fred and was
anxious to know how the system
worked. Accordingly he interviewed
the gunner and asked how he knew
when to fire the signal. "Oh, | look
Mt my watch" said the official. And
how do you correct your watch?" ask
ed the captain ~ take 1t to the max
er in Cairo and he tells me the error"
Forthwith Captain Lyons interviewed
the matchmaker and asked him how
be checked the error OF the watch. Il
get the correct time from the gun,
said that simple craftsman. And thus
time was told in Egypt = London
