a Bernhardt Trick,

Nine Sarah Bernhard, who is sup
posed to be something of an artist as
we'll as an actress, was recently called
upon in one Of her marvellous crea-
tons to enact the role Of a sculptor,
and to model a certain bust In view or
the audience. This fairly electrified
the critics. but when going into rhap-
sodies over the technical skill in han
ding the clay which Nine. Bernhard
exhibited they showed that they knew
little of the artistic tricks of actors
and actresses; as matter of fact, she
does nothing of the kind. The bust
is modelled and baked, and over 1t Is
placed damp clay of the same color.
This the talented actress merely pulls
off, exposing the beautifully modelled
head underneath.

FINALLY KILLED BY A
PATROAMAN.
PEOPLE FLEE TO HOMES
Whole Section Is Aroused Until
Animal Is Shot. Children Are
Under Care of Physician.

MIlwaukee.-Two Bay View chill
dren, little girls, were bitten by dog
which for several hours terrorized
that section of the city.
Before the animal was killed 1t
had bitten several other dogs, and
the streets were deserted through
fear
The children bitten are:
Mildred Merideth, aged 8 year..
/ "a Lincoln avenue.
Lena Bolmas, aged II years, 13l
Lincoln avenue.
The dog, a cross between a collie
and a shepherd, was first noticed on
Kinnickinnic avenue. 1t was seen
running down the street, frothing at
the mouth and barking loudly. 1t at
tackled a dog owned by Theobald OF
jen, and after short fight continued
south on Kinnickinnic avenue. When
the crazed animal reached Lincoln
avenue it turned east.
Little Mildred Merideth was play
ing with some other children in the
street. Inc dOS ran up, ana, dlttI
savagely attacking her, fled down the
street.
A crowd, which had collected in
the meantime, began to follow the
dog. After it had run only short
distance further, the dog attacked
the Bolmas girl, who was also play
ing in the street. After biting her
savagely on the left leg the dog con-
tinued down the street.
People further down the street,
hearing the warning shouts Of the
crowd, fled into houses. When the
dog reached South Bay street it
turned north and in its flight at
tackled seven dogs. At 10 South Bay
street it was finally cornered and shot
by Patrolmen Howell and Michael
Marx.
1t will take some time to deter
mine the condition of the children.
Both were attended by physicians,
the Merideth girl by DR.. c. H. Lewis
and the Bolmas girl by DR.. c. w.
Graham.
The danger lies in a possible at
tack of the rabies.

WATERFOWL. - Fighting a prear'

life of CLYDE Dudley of Grand Rap

now held on a simple charge or as

ated by a Coroner's jury because OF
the strange conditions of the case.
Dudley came to Watertown about
four months ago to visit family
living near WatertoWn junction.
There was a daughter in the family
a girl a little over l6 years, VINO was
accustomed to visit frequently at the
Junction hotel, where Brown was
clerk. Some time ago Brown, 1t Is
said. told the girl to keep away from
the place, and Dudley declared th.s
was an insult to the girl and de-
handed that Brown fight him.
Brown is about l40 pounds IN
weight, and only about 20 years OF
age Dudley is about the same age,
and weighs less than Brown. Brown
kept refusing to fight, it is sald,
but Dudley kept calling him a
coward and kept pressing the night
until it was finally arranged, ac-
cording to testimony to be given at
the inquest, that the two meet IN a
vacant lot near the hotel and hght

but the two men were to keep at II
until one had enough.
Friends of both were present ana
after the two had shaken hands be
fore the fight, they met in a herce
encounter. going to the ground al
most Immediately. The fight only
lasted a few moments, when Dudley
cried out that he had had enough
and his jaw was found to be broken
near the ear. According to the
stories of friends, the two shook
hands and went home.
Dudley, however, was bleeding per-
sistently, and it was necessary to
send him to a hospital. The doctors
could not check the flow of blood and
he died.
The attitude Of the authorities
toward Brown is shown by the fact
that he is only held on a charge OF
assault and battery. The claim that
the fight was forced on him and that
the two parted apparently friends

AN ALLEGED SHORTAGE
Bondsmen Charge That Accounts Of
Late Robert A. Etter Show a
Deficit Of SI,84O.

Monroe.-That there is a short
age Of $l,S4O in the accounts of
the late Robt A. Etter postmaster,
is the allegation of his bOndsmen,
who have asked the court to re-
strain his heirs, Mr.. Etter's daugh-
ters, from taking possession Of any
Of the estate, consisting mainly of
the insurance in the WoOdmen order.
1t is also alleged that the estate
is in debt to the amount of about
81 5000.
The alleged shortage in the post
Office accounts is said to have been
discovered by J. p. Walker, gov
eminent pOstOtiice inspector.
j. b. Treat and Henry Ludlow,
bondsmen, petitioned the court and,
in accordance, George T.. Thorpe was
appointed dministrator.
The allegation of the shortage
makes worse the confusion in regard
to the postofIiCe here. Congressman
Cooper appointed as a successor to
Mr.. Etter, Emery Odell, but the SEN
ate held up the appointment Mr..
Etter had been a candidate for re-
appointment.

MILO is THE SOUNDING SHAD?
HIS Is HabituaIIy Merry and Bright,
Affords Interest, Amusement
and Some Sport.

We note with a profound sense OF
ratification that the sounding shad
has arrived. Who is the sounding
shad? some may ask. We answer
that he is a fine old sport whose
presence in this country causes a
cutter in the breast Of every suscep-
ible ichthyologist. Let there be no
nisconception about the sounding
shad, says the London Globe. He is
lot a blliard-room guy that one may
casually challenge to a hundred up,
or a low comedian, or a new thing in
rombones.
No. The sounding shad is regu-
lar and welcome visitor who arrives
when the song Of the nightingale Is
heard in the Surrey lanes and the
liquid notes of the American tourist
percolate through the atmosphere OF
Bloomsbury. He is a fsh-just a
fish, but one of the right sort
AS the Birmingham Post tells US,
he comes "tumbling and gamboling
up certain OF our rivers, affording In
terest, amusement excitement and
some sport" He Is not occasionally,
ne is habitually merry and bright. He
is, say the naturalists, "anadromous,"
but he does not let a little thing like
that bother him He tumbles and
gambols just the same, and livens the
cold monotony of our rivers.
by day and night we are told,
the saltations of the sounding shad
suggest the gambolings of dolphins

UNITE IN EFFORT
TO DOWN OSBORN
mussELMAN AND KELLEY PLAY
ING GAME TO SPLIT UP ANTI
WARNER VOTE.
If ELECTED. KELLEY WOULD
PROBABLY SUPPORT MussEL-
MAN FOUR YEARS HENCE.

II is becoming increasingly appar-
ent to shrewd political observers that
thorough understanding exists be
tween Pat Kelley ana Amos Mussel-
man. candidates for governor. The
Kelley papers about the state are
daily publishing the Musselman press
dope, and Pat himself refers con-
stantly to Musselman in a most friend
ly way in his speeches. On the other
hand. Musselman. who started out
TO show up the inefiiciency OF the
Warner administration and sought
the ONCE OF governor wholly on the
ground that the state business was
mishandled and needed overhauling,
is now playing the soft pedal. Not a
word OF criticism OF the Warner
regime has escaped Musselman's lips
for a month now.
The game being played is plain.
Musselman has no show OF landing
the nomination this time. All he can
do is 70 help Kelley and hurt Osborn
by splitting up the anti-Warner vote,
and thus make Kelley's nomination
the easier.
The natural and probable reward
OF such service would be the sup
port OF the administration four years
hence for Musselman.
Fortunately. the cat Is out OF the
bag" and the people. who want an
overhauling OF things AZ Lansing, will
no be fooled into scattering their
votes. The steady growth OF the os-
born sentiment all oyer Michigan
shows that the popular mind Is awake
to this danger and proposes 10 put
an end to Warner-Kelleyism on Sept.
