COL RooseveH Opens
Cambafgn IN Vermont

BENNINGTON, VT, Aug. 29.--Di-
rectly appealing for votes because OF
the admitted peculiar relation between
the result here and the coming gen.
eral election, Col. Roosevelt took the
stump personally here today TO ask
the voters TO elect the Progressive
state ticket. Incidentally Roosevelt
took occasion to renew his verbal at
tack on John d. Archbold. Of the
Standard Oil Co.; Senator Penrose, of
Pennsylvania, and to repeat his con-
tentions that he and mis- party repre-
sent the Simon pure Republicans OF
the nation. Roosevelt appealed espe-
cially to the younger voters In the
crowd.
Jim Watson, of Indiana, is coming
here to speak against me-" he said.
He was one OF the mechanics of the
steam roller at Chicago, and he ad-
mitted that the roller had split the
Republican party, but he insisted that
Il would still carry Vermont. But Ii
won't. The aim OF Watson and his
associates Is to beat me rather than
to win the election"
Roosevelt then reviewed at length
the Archbold charges and declared
that the Standard Oil spokesman g
characterization of James r. Garfield,
was "a certificate Of character for
the Ohioan. He said that he had
been assured by old-time politicians
that the Progressive enthusiasm was
sweeping the state and predicted sue
cess for the ticket next Tuesday.

Pork Famine Abroad.
AS time goes on, the outlook for
hogs and hog products grows stronger
and more bullish. Continental adyices
foreshadow a pork famine In the old
world, and statistics having To do with
domestic supply and demand indicate
that the arrivals of the next 100 days
will be far below the needs of the
trade. For the time being. the spread
between block hogs and medium
weights Is not as strong and wide as
It was earlier In the month. Arrivals

is buying freely of cured meats. II Is
evident that the big packer contingent
are not friendly to a further advance
in the price of live hogs. and they are
sending out their cured meats at
prices which will tend to hold In
cheek the market for fresh pork In
the immediate future. Reports OF
sickness among western pigs seems to
have been greatly exaggerated, and
those best acquainted with the situa-
tion do not look for heavy losses from
this cause.

In the business. and values are rising
rapidly.
One of the puzzling surprises OF the
season is the lack OF interest shown
by the meat-eating public In mutton.
The supply OF mature sheep In the
country is not large, and the average
receipts of this kind OF stock In lead
ing markets are still smaller. but, In
spite OF this fact, heavy cuts OF NUT
ton and even the choicest cuts OF
iamb are selling very slowly and at
prices much lower. relatively. than
those which other grades of meat are
bringing.
The demand for feeding sheep and
lambs continues active and prices for
the latter are much higher than usual
at this season OF the year. Michigan
is In the market for feeding lambs.
but Ohio and Pennsylvania feeders
seem to prefer sheep this year. The
demand for breeding ewes Is gaining
In volume, from. week TO week as the
season advances: prices are working

.JOSEPHlNE-Avt. "CREAM /
PROWlER" IS BIG DOG
Mystery of Stripped Milk Bottles
Solved When Collie Is Caught
"Red-Handed"

This story Is respectfully submit.
ted. Capt. Lemuel Guyman, In charge
OF the mounted police squad. says IL
Is true. So does Patrolman J. K.
Mitchell. OF said squad. Just what
sensations It's publication will cause
in the palates and stomachs OF JOSE
phine-aye. residents. lss a conjecture.
For weeks mounted patrolmen have
been receiving reports OF the oper-
ations or a clever and most elusive
thief, whose efforts were confined en-
drely to milk bottles. and only to the
cream within them. Reports have
been fairly flooded into Chene station
about the operations OF this cream
prowler.
Morning after morning, residents
along Josephine-ave., dozens of them,
have reported that they found their
milk bottles stripped of the top layer
OF cream. but In proper place and
with the milk untouched.
Mounted policemen worked fever
ishly TO obtain glimpse OF some new
fanatic, with mania for dipping or
pouring the cream from milk bot.
ties. But no trace could they get OF
the miscreant.
At last Capt. Guyman, feeling sure
that the clatter OF horses hoofs al
ways forewarned the thief. decided on
a quiet little plan. He mounted Pa
trolman Mitchell on a bicycle and
sent him out, dressed as plain citi'
zen, to cruise through the cream-theft
district.
For three days Mitchell prowled
through the district like a hawk, but
nary a sight did he get of the thief.
Still, the milk bottles were being
stripped OF their cream each morning
and reports continued to food in.
Mitchell watched for suspicious look'
ing characters, but saw not one.
Thursday morning Mitchell saw q
big collie dog walk boldly up on the
steps of No. 1s1 Josephine-ave., and
he would have passed right on. but
he was brought to attention when
the collie walked directly to the milk
bottle, picked 1t up between his fore
paws, as a squirrel does nut. and
quickly and dexterously removed the
cardboard seal with his long teeth.
Then he proceeded to insert long.
red tongue into the bottle until he
had licked out the contents, as far
as his tongue would reach, obtaining,
Of course, the top layer OF cream.
Then he carefully set the bottle down
In an upright position and ambled
along.
Mitchell, recovering from sort OF
stupor of surprise. followed the dog
which trotted along to No. 224 Jose
phine-ave., past several milk bottles
but, apparently lacking In thirst. Al
No. 224, however, the dog repeated its
maneuvers with the bottle.
Say" yelled Mitchell at the dog
as IL started to walk majesticall,
away, licking its chops. you're a reg
ular gol-darned thief you are, ant
I've a good mind to pinch you"
He followed the dog, caught II, and
looked at the license tag on its collar
which revealed that the dog Is the
property or @. p. Johnson, or NO. zta
Owen-ave.
Then Mitchell released the dog.
hustled into the station. and made his
surprising report.
Other complaints had come from
Nos. 1893, 169. 1s9 and t43 Josephine
ave, and 1t was said that there were
many other cases, not reported to the
police.
