RELEASE DOGS
At CITY POUND
Ssmsone Made Entrancs
Last Might 1881 Licenses.

Someone evidently DESTROYS of
avoiding payment of 50 for securing
his dog broke into the dog pound
last night and set eighteen CANNES
at liberty. The guilty person is
known to the dog catcher and he ex-
poets to have him arrested. He is
believed by the dog catcher to be
one whose dog he nabbed yesterday
while a license tag was not on 1t.
The man had procured a license but
neglected to put the tag on the dog,
according to the catcher. The latter
saw him today and asked about his
dog, but the accused man denied
having it.
A brick wall of the pound was
broken through and entrance was
gained in that manner up through
the flooring. All of the dogs in cap
tivity, numbering eighteen, were let
loose and 1t is believed the intruder
got his.
City Clerk LaRoe stated today
that many people believe 1t is only
necessary to take out a license with
out attaching the tag to the dog.
The latter procedure is absolutely
necessary as otherwise the catcher
has no means of knowing whether
or not the canine is licensed. The
clerk has also experienced difficulty
in trying to convince some people
that a license, no matter what
month it Is taken out, is only good
until the following June 1. Some
people believe a license is good for
a year from the date it is procured,
which is not the case. A total of 881
dog licenses had been issued up to
o 10 today.

TOOTHLESS SAWS FOR STEEL
High Speed Revolving Disks Now
Used for Cutting the Hard
Metal.

The employment of high speed re-
volving disks of mild steel for cutting
hard steel has become common. but
the process always excites the aston
ishment of the uninitiated. The disks
are preferably made of boiler plate
quality and are about quarter OF an
inch thick. They revolve with perl
pheral speed of as much as 10000 feet
minute. One of these disks will cut
through a heavy channel section of
hard steel, 12 by 6A inches. in Is sec
onds.
1t appears to act by local fusion.
The very high speed causes thousands
of inches of surface to impinge in
rapid succession on the metal under
cut, so that its temperature at the
point of contact becomes very high,
although the disk, owing to its large
surface area, remains relatively cool.
All its frictional energy Is concen-
trated on an extremely small area of
contact. The work Is done SO quickly
that the heat has no time to spread in
the metal undercut, and the sides of
the cut portion are only a little
warmed.-Youth's Companion.
