Go Awry.

Contrary TO expectations there was no
martial display at the funeral obsequies
of Jim, the pet and mascot Of the police

a result Of injuries received Sunday
morning.
His death occurred at the establish
ment Of DR.. HOllingswOrth. the veterin-
arian, and his bluecOat friends planned
To bury him in the yards adjoining the
police station, and there was also talk
Of having a small monument erected in
memory Of his faithfulness and sa-
gacity.
But fate has decreed otherwise. The
health regulations prevented the inter
ment. The remains Of the faithful and
bright canine went the same way as the
mongrel on the street that Is friend
less The dead wagon, half loaded with
the carcasses Of dead dogs, cats, and
other smaller animals, was the hearse
for poor Jim. Only the policeman on
the beat was present when the body was
thrown into the wagon.

the interment would be at the station
mousse were disappointed. and several
people. not knowing of his death. tcle-
pboned TO the station clerk TO learn
how Jim was getting along.
