would be strange indeed IT, the yRrd-

A Dog in Good Hun,or.

If there was one thing the fam
lily dog disliked it was milkmen, .
said Jerry F.. George, of Pittsburg,
Pa. Wherefore the old milkman
was wary and never ventured in
without first tapping on the kitchen
window to find out for certain that
all was safe.
but the new milkman didn't
know about the pets, peculiarities,
so when Fido was eventually detach-
ed from the heshiest part of the new
milkman's calf by the master. of the
house the victim of the onslaught
began to express his mind with con-
siderable freedom.
Keepin' dog like that!' he in
dignantly exclaimed.
He's only playful, that's ALL in
sisted the fond master. and pressed
something into the new milkman's
hand.
THE milkman glanced at the coin
and then deposited it in a safe
pocket.

as well as anybody he said dryly,
but do you know till you explained
1t had a notion that that dog was
eating my calf in real earnest. p

Maine Checker Maker.

1t seems inconceivable that two
men can be kept steadily employed
the year round making checkers. YET
that is what is done in a mill at
Bethel. The average output, OF
checkers from this mill is 500 bar
rels. 1t has been as high as 1000
and down to 900, but 800 is the
average. This does not sound very
large, but when the figures are work
ed out it is found to be lot. In
every barrel shipped there are so,
600 checkers of the ordinary size,
while In 500 barrels there are 49,
100000 or 100000 sets Of "a
checkers each. That is to say, with
the output of this Maine mill, g.
100000 persons could be playing
at the same time. Jour

SUFFERED A STROKE
Walter Richie, Well Known
Very Sick.

Walter Richie, of Randolph street,
formerly prominent councilman and
druggist, now time-keeper at Gaar,
Scott and company, was stricken with
apoplexy last evening about nine
o'clock. At first it was believed the
stroke would prove fatal. as Richie
was unable to speak. and was also
unconscious for several hours. How
ever. this morning, he rallied and re-
covery is expected unless there is a
second stroke.
Richie was councilman from the
second ward, about thirty years ago.
Then he became railroad man and
was engineer on the Pennsylvania.
Some 20 years ago he was terribly in
jured in a collision in the east yards
Of the Pennsylvania, and for almost a
year was at the point of death. After
recovering he was employed as a
planer at Gaar's and after that he act
ed as time-keeper. which position he
now holds. He is very we'll known

halted the paraders apd demanded an
explanation. The count said he was
on his way home and had bought the
sofa and that it was his property.
The officer probably thought the ques-
ton of propriety too important for
him to decide and escorted the pris-
oners, including. the sofa, into the
presence of the precinct captain. The
count told his story and presented his
receipt for the sofas purchase. The
captain verified these statements by
telephoning to the restaurant propri-
etor and advised his unwilling guests
to go home.
In less than an hour the captain was
astonished to have the sofa and its
retinue Of attendants brought before
him by another officer. The party was
released second time. The incident
was repeated three times. and the cap
tain was becoming q fit subject for
the madhouse when he had 'rilliant
idea. Four officers were T. cred to
march with the count, the sofa and the
party to escort them home.
Slowly the procession moved toward
the shore. When landing place was

sped away. leaving the officers to

lice station.
