JOE AND THE DOG.
Grocery Boy Has a Narrow Escape
From Master of Boston Terrier.

Joe, the grocery boy, ran in several
times the other morning to tell the
pretty young lady cashier that there
was lovely Boston terrier out on
the sidewalk.
81 like his looks, too," he said after
about the second message.
A little later Joe came up to the
cashier and said:
Would you like to have that dog?
If you do I'll capture him and bring
him in
Sure I'd like him." answered the
girl. 'But he must belong to some
body" she added.
NO." replied Joe, I'm sure he is
a stray dog"
well, why don't you nab him be-
fore he strays again?" he was told.
Then Joe went out on the side
walk and began to nudge up to the
dog, First he called him "doggie,"
then patted him lightly on the head.
The dog paid not the slightest atten-
ton to Joe's carresses, and this
hadn't been going on long before
man came out Of the shoe shop around
the corner and walked off with the
dog.
Joe looked kind O. sheepish. and
there was a laugh from the lady
cashier and one of the other clerks
whose attention she had called to the
dog. Joe walked inside and remarked:
Il wonder if that fellow thought I
wanted to steal his dog?' And the
girl nearly screamed.

"JACK" AT THE POST OFFICE.
Grantwood Donkey Makes Himself
Very Familiar at StabePs.

About the hour of II p. M, Septem-

ing to the Hartmann's, of Grant
wood, surprised everybody at Stabe's
Post Office store by walking in as
boldly as a regular customer.
"Shoo! shoe! shoo" said Mrs.

his ears and mosied up to the soda
water counter.

MEYER BEAR NEAR HEAVEN.
Sends Postal From Away Up In the
Rocky Mountains of New Mexico.

A postal card from Cloudcroft, New
Mexico, September 5, sent by Meyer
A Baer, announces that he was 9,1OO
feet above sea level-very near
heaven, but yet so far Cloudcroft is
a point in the Rockies away up yon-
der and is reached by a railway of
the regulation type. The picture sent
by Mr.. Baer shows a view of the last
five miles of the railroad before the
summit is reached, and it must have
been some job to build it. It winds
around in the view like steel serpent,
and is visible in horseshoe curves,
running around under and over itself.
crossing gorges on spider legged
trestles, and away off in the dimdam
distances it looks like a long white
snake crawling its slow length over
peak after peak. Mr. Baer did not
say what he was doing around Cloud
croft, but it is to be presumed that if
there are any stores that high up, he
was selling a bill of goods. Hurry
up and come down, Meyer You
won't like it up there with no wings.

a short nap the money was gone, and
Davis Investigated. Brown had been
seen In the vicinity, and 1t was found
later that he had been spending money
with a lavish hand, thing which or
dinarily his means would not permit.
Chloe Price, a negro, who keeps a
store, testified that Brown had paid SIS
for some clothes and shoes, and SO
was found on his person when arrest

Speed law violations in this city by

discussion brought before last nights
meeting of the board of police commits
Sioners, by Commissioner Barrett. Mr..
Barrett stated that 1t had been brought
to his attention by Louis c. Barley,
judge of the corporation court, who al
legged that the police are remiss in their
duties in not bringing violators to JUS
tice, and he asked that some action be |
taken in the matter.
Mayor Paff replied that authority to
act in such matters rested with him,
and not with the police board, adding
that he had received communication
from Judge Barley, and would give it
his attention. Mr.. Barrett then sug-
gested that section of a mile be laid
off by the city engineer in the districts
where the violations are frequent, and
that officers be assigned to watch for
speeders. The mayor took the matter
under advisement.
