A SHORTAGE FOUND
IN THE DOG CROP

The dog crop in Wayne township is
falling off and very noticeably so. &C
cording to the deputy assessors serv-
ing under township assessor Charles
in the township amounted to $1.675,
but this year it will run less than
$1,000, according to the outlook. The
reason is that dog owners or those
harboring CANNES. preferring not to
pay tax On the most loyal friend OF
man. have had the animals killed. AS
SCISSORS covering West Richmond and
Riverdale report that the number of
dogs in these two districts has dimin-
ished more than in any other part of
the city.

Nine. Dimitrieff

Nine. Dimitrieff, the distinguished
Russian soprano who is TO be one OF
the soloists at the approaching con-
cert of the Russian Symphony Orches-
ira. of New York, at the Gennett on
Friday, March II, is a woman Of rare
presence of mind as we'll as a singer
of internationational reputation. Mime.
Dimitrieff once quelled an angry mob
that had assembled in an Italian op-
era house to wreck the performance.
In that country. it appears. the rival
ry of the opera managers frequently
results in one hiring an unruly mob to
pack the gallary of his adversary S
undertaking to interfere with its pro.
gress in hopes of causing an enter
prise to be permanently abandoned.
On one occasion Nine. Dimitrieff was
to sing the leading soprano role in a
great opera. but before the time came
for her to appear for the first time on
the stage the house was in an uproar.
The rough element in the top balco'
MES had first Kissed the tenor then
shrieked at him and the stunned man
had retreated to the wings for refuge.
Her mind acting like a flash Nine.
Dimitrieff dispatched a messenger to
her hotel across the street for Rus
sian and an Italian flag. and, with
these in her possession. prepared for
a bold move.
In the face of the pendemonium the
brave soprano advanced before the
footlights. Seeing her, the crowd in
it's fury, seemed only to increase its
bowling. But the prima donna went
calmly on with her aria though the
leader of the orchestra looked at her
appealingly several times. to stop
Finally. with the climax Of her number
reached. Nine. Dimitrieff advanced to
the front of the stage and waving the
Russian flag quickly produced and
whirled that of Italy. In an instant
the hooting was changed to cheering
and the opera proceeded to success
with Nine Dimitrieff the heroine OF
the night.

but this must all be spent I'm or for the
good of their common household.
However, il is but comparatively
small percentage of couples that have
such contracts made out. BY far the
! larger number marry in community of
property simply because they rush in
to matrimony without giving the mat
ter sufficient thought. For this reas-
on marriage law ought to be enacted
which makes the separation or indi-
vidual holding of property the normal
and usual state of things unless the
contrary be expressly stipulated. Very
few girls know anything at all about
the laws Of the land, and for the
matter Of that. most men and women
never inquire by what laws they are
bound until difficulties arise.
"Then there are cases where the

divorce is becoming gradually more
