GEORGIA DOG LAW is DEAD
House Wipes 1t OFF Statutes of GeOr-
gia by Passing Senate Bill.
Change in Game Law.

ATLANTA-Wor under
full head of steam the house moved
into the final lap of the fifty-day ses-
sion Monday morning in an effort to
clean up as much business as possible
before adjournment on Wednesday
night.
Georgia's dog tax law was wiped
from the sttaute books by the pas
sage of the senate bill making dogs
property and making it optional with
owners of the same whether or not
they value their canine possessions
at anything at all.
In considering this bill the house
used about two hours of good time
There were two roll calls on it, first
to indefinitely postpone, which was
lost, and then on it's passage. Sew
eral gallons of OratOry were spilled
under the limited time allowed for
debate.
Change in Game Law.
The game law came up for correc-
ton of various errors which crept IN
to it when passed last year. Mr.
Wimberly offered the amended bill,
taking the kinks cut of the measure.
1t provides salary for state game
warden and the various deputies.
One important amendment which
will carry joy to the bird hunters
provides that the season open on
November 20 instead of December l..

WARD OF GOVERNMENT
LONG AND ARpuous SERVICE OF
MULE RECOGNIZED.
II Has Been Said That Republics Were
Ever Unersteful, but This Incl.
dent Seems TO oisprovs
the Statement.

Almost thirty years ago. SO the ar
chlves OF ths war department dis
close. Lieutenant w. A. Kobbe Of the
Third artillery, who was stationed at
Mount Vernon barracks, Alabama, re-
ported TO the war department that
there was at that post a white mule
named Mexique. which had been for
many years IN the service OF the Unit
ed States, but which had at last been
ordered sold The officers OF the post.
Lieutenant Kobbe said. desired per-
mission to purchase the animal and
keep and care for Il at their own ex-
pense.
Major F. L. Guenther OF the Second
artillery. to whom the petition was
referred. reported that the mule In
question was originally left at Key
West barracks in 1s4s by portion OF
the army returning from Mexico at
the close Of the war with that coun-
try. He added:
During the time that / served at
Key West. from 1875 10 1880. the mule
did not miss a days work from any
cause. He is very old and has been
worn out by his long service In the
quartermaster's department II there
is any way to provide for him. should
be glad to have It done, as the ex-
pense to the government would be
little or nothing"
The petition went through the regu-
lar channels until It reached the quar-
termaster general, who indorsed 1t as
follows:
ITO promote the sentiment Of kind
ness toward animals that are so inti-
mately connected with military men,
1t Is recommended in this special case
that this mule be kept in the depart
ment and left to the care of those
whose kindly feelings are so deeply
enlisted In his behalf"
General Sherman submitted the case
to the secretary of war, with the fol-
lowing report:

Not satisfied with renown in their
own country, the "Kilties." Canada's
greatest concert band, have made
themselves internationally famous.
They have travelled ii is said over four
hundred thousand miles and have Civ.
en- over six thousand concerts in the
principal cities of twenty different
countries. The "Kilties' have been
dubbed "the globe-trotters' by the
people of various nations and they
deserve the name for so extensive
have been their wanderings that they
have sailed on every ocean of the
globe. Their last foreign tour, in
which the wanderers completely cir.
cled the globe, was eighty-six thousand
miles long an dit required over two
years OF the globe-trotters time. With.
in itself this remarkable record is
surely proof that there is something
about the "Kilties" that almost every
body likes, and the reports from the
various American cities the "Kilties'
have played on their present tour 90
to show that they still retain that
something about themselves that have
made them internationally famous
Great enthusiasm is being displayed
in this city over the coming Of this
exceptional attraction and music low
ers who are fortunate enough TO hear
them and who enjoy high class novelty
with their classic music, such as folk
dancing, bag-piping, the Scotch High
land dances and various humoresques
by the band, will have feast of music
ranging In musical Importance from a
simple humorous Interpretation of the
old tune "Arkansaw Traveller to the
best works of the great masters Of
music.

Scorpions FaIntlna FIT.

The scorpion that is placed In the
center of a ring OF Goals does not COM
nit suicide by stinging himself to
death, as has been claimed. In lands
where the scorpion abounds it is a
regular pastime among countrymen to
ring a scorpion with fire and watch
him commit, as Is believed, the happy
despatch. Nevertheless. the scorpion
has the last laugh, as 1t were.
The scorpion, though an inhabitant
OF torrid regions, is so delicately or
ganized that very slight increase
above the normal temperature pro-
duces a condition In him analogous to
fainting fit Driven desperate by
the heat. he lashes his tail wildly,
giving the impression that he IS plung-
ing his sting into his own body Then
he falls motionless. AS presumably
dead scorpion has no further interest
for the spectators. he Is usually left
where he has fallen. and. after the
fire has died down. he RECEIVERS and
crawls away.

Cheese.

The English, the Germans, and the
Norwegians are great consumers Of
cheese, but the people Of Switzerland
surpass them all. The cheese of Ter.
matt is SO hard that one is Obliged TO
scrape IL or cut of chunks with a
hatchet, and its use is considered
most important on all ceremonious
occasions. The rank Of Swiss FAM
lily Is known by the age of its cheese,
and the more affection or respect a
guest inspires the harder is the cheese
which is cut in his honor. 1t IS said
that there are families in Switzerland
whose cheeses date from the first
French revolution, and these are
served only al baptisms, weddings,
and after funerals. The larder In ey-
cry family is guarded with care. and
the ehese is named. Upon the birth
OF new heir cheese is made that
takes the name given him or her, and
that particular cheese is never under
any circumstances cut until the boy or
girl grows up and Is married. On
such occasion each OF the guests
takes a piece OF cheese from the
bridegroom and from the bride and
drinks to their felicity, the cheese
held aloft.-Harper's Weekly.
