SHEPP DOG PERFORMS
REMARKABLE FEAT

Lakeview, Or.-Left alone on Wa
gontire mountain with 30S6 sheep by
the death of John Sagoiday, her mas
ter, whose death occurred from heart
failure one night, a female shepherd
dog two weeks later delivered to
Manuel saunders, owner of the sheep,
30S5 of the animals having lost only
one and during two weeks of priva-
ton. The dogs achievement was car
ried out despite the fact that she was
mother of puppies only q lew days old
when Sagoiday, the hcrder, died.
1t was two weeks before Sagoiday's
body was found. because the camp
tender had left only a few days be-
fore he expired and herders are fire.
quently alone weeks in the isolated
sctions of this county. At the last
previous count, Saunders and his
camptender checked out an even 300
animals in the band. Killings for
camp food and occasional losses from
coyotes had reduced this number by
IA when the camptender left Sagoi-
day prior to his death. The solitary
sheep lost by the dog was also victim
of a coyote, it is supposed.
How the remarkable animal con-
trived to care for the band in the
wild Wagontire country, which is
among the roughest in Lake county,
protect it from the watchful coyotes,
keep it from scattering and at the
same time provide food for herself
and puppies is ineXplicable. Mr.
Saunders said he would not have be-
lieved it possible had not the count

Butler, Pa.-Alleging that he used
the toots of his locomotive to de-
ceive her, Miss Minnie Bell McCrack-
sued Samuel Leroy Poterfield,

talked" to her with his whistle.
They were to have been married last
Wednesday, she said.
On Tuesday, she declared, Porter
field passed her home on the passen-
ger train he was running on the Bes-

love you dearly
Then there were two toots, mean
ing "Be back tonight"
Three toots. marry you tomorrow.
But Porterfield, she declares, did
not come back to marry her on We'd
nesday. She had her trousseau ready
and when he did not appear she
found him, but he declined. The next
day, she says, he married at Clarion,
Pa, Mrs. Phoebe Criner. of West
street a dashing young widow.
But that is not all. Miss McCrack-
en- says that through a relative one
of the signals of the whistle code has
! become known to the townspeople. 1t

Here's n long, lingering kiss She
says that now when the youths of
the town pass her on the street they
whistle in a long drawn-out manner
and smile, greatly to her mortifica-
ton.
