cHoKED BIG DOG TO DEATH
lots Newfoundland and Saved
Several School Children.

II years old. fought and choked to
death q Newfoundland dog, which had
attacked several school children. Only
the heroic work OF Edise saved the
children from being mangled by the
savage animal, but be himself was
badly bitten.
Edise is a truck driver. He was
driving In HinsdaIe street when he
saw q group of children on their way
from school at the noon hour, run
ming and screaming. Following them
was a great black dog, swapping at
the little ones, but fortunately falling
to fasten his teeth In any OK them.
Edise was without a weapon OF any
kind, but he leaped from his truck,
ran at the dog and kicked him. The
brute Immediately turned It's attention
to its assailant and leaping at Edise
fastened Its teeth In his left arm.
Edise succeeded In breaking the hold
when the dog again seized hin, this
time catching the fingers Of his left
hand.
With his free hand Edise grabbed
the dog by the throat and despite its
struggles. held on. The choking
forced the animal to release It's grip
on the left hand Of Edise, and he
threw the beast to the sidewalk, knelt
On 1t to prevent it squirting loose.
and while q great crowd gathered
and stood helpless he choked the
animal to death.-New York Globe.

BROUGHT DOWN TWO VICTIMS
But the Deer Hunter Got 6urprIse q
His Life When He Exam
ined Them.

One Of the best hunting stories Of
the q comes from northern Wis
cousin, where q prominent resident
OF Phillips. accompanied by a friend,
slipped out Of town m evening two
days In advance of the legal opening
day OF the season for killing deer.
His object was to hunt deer at night
by the air OF a strong reflector dark
Ante-a. He succeeded TN q way far
beyond his most optimistic hopes In
killing something, but his overwhelm-
Ing surprise on first viewing the
game may be better imagined than
written, and his language was horrid.
sis drove his own team Of horseu,
valued at $500, and some distance
from town he turned into an sbanr
doned logging road, traversing 1t for
several miles. Then he tied up the
team and prow1ed about in the woods
for half an hour with HIS light.
Suddenly he heard q snort. and the
i1gnt revealed a pair of glaring eyes
from some animal a short distance
away. In his excitement he handed
the hight to his friend and banged 1t
the eyes. Down tumbled the animais
and instantly there was a connection
In the same spot, and the light re-
vealed another pair of glaring yes.
The hunter quickly fired and the sec-
ond animal dropped.
The hunters r shed forward with
their light. and to their disnay found
that both their horses were shot and
killed. They had circied about and
confronted the team In their ram
blings.

viii Of Mrs. Bull in the probate court
of York county, Maine. last summer,
recently left on board the steamship
FranconIa for Liverpool on his way to
Ale Mrs. vaugnan's will at Bergen.
Norway. the New York Herald's Bosr

Mr.. Bartlett Is executor for the viii
of Mrs. Vaughan. and he and Miss
Amelia Shapleigh of West Lebanon,
Me, are c~o-trustees for Sylvia
Vaughan, the adopted daughter of Mrs.
Vaughan and the principal beneficiary
under Mrs. Vaughan's will
The reason that the will of Mrs.
Vaughan lie to be offered for record In
Bergen Is that the only foreign real
estate which she possessed is the
Island OF Lysoen, near Bergen. Ole
Bull owned this island, which Is said
to be one OF the most beautiful In the
world. 1t is in a ford about twenty.

OF about seven hundred acres OF land,
largely forest. Ole Bull In his life
time developed two fresh water lakes
and a cave and laid out twenty miles
of paths on the island.
Lysosn was left by Mrs. Vaughan TO
the little Swiss girl. Sylvia, whom she
adopted a couple of years age. but on
Sylvia's death Lysoen is to be pre-
served by the Norwegian government
as a memorial to Ole Bull.
The exact procedure which will be
followed In Norway with respect to
the case is a matter of uncertainty, be-
aus under the Norwegian law no
foreigner can real estate In that
country without the written consent OF
the king.

MEAT HIGHEST IN FIFTY YEARS
Likely to Rise Further, Until Civil
 War Prices Are Reached.

Chicago May While prices of beef and other commodities are frac- tionally lower here than in New York according to the quotations telegraph ed from that city today, in Chicago they attained figures approximating the highest known in the last half century.
 Wholesale dealers say the rapid rise is due to natural causes, and retailers profess to be greatly alarmed over the situation. Within the next few weeks, it is predicted by butchers and pack CTS, prices something like the exorbi- tant rates of civil-war times may pre- vail. The wholesale price of dressed beef in the local market today was r cents a pound, an advance of two cents in a week. The advance in the price of lamb was even more marked. It sold at fifteen cents, wholesale, as against ten cents a week ago. Dressed sheep sold at 12 cents a pound, while the price a short time ago was six cents

STATE ATTORNEY BOUND
 TO CLEAN UP NORWICH
State Police Again Raided the Houses of lIlRepnte at Early Hour This Morning,


 Determined that the houses of ill repute in this city shall be cleaned out, the state police on Wednesday night came here for the second time in a fortnight and raided the six places, taking the keepers and fre- quenters, both men and women.
 The raid was conducted on the com plaint of State Attorney Hadlai A. Hull.
 The state police, headed by Super intendent Eagan and Asst. Supt. A. l.. Story numbering 16 in all, came here by the auto, following out the same plan of attack as on the previous raid April IS. They left Hartford in early evening and reached here about one o'clock, each place being visited at the same time by three of the men.
 The visit was a surprise in every instance, and not the least idea of another such visit was expected now, the previous cases not having yet been disposed of, but <ue to oome up Saturday.
 The raid was conducted on the same lines as the previous one, the charges being keeping houses of ill., fame, frequenting the same, and keep ing liquor in violation of the law.
 All were taken to the police station by auto and held until the warrants could be made out and bail obtained. The raid occupied a period of two hours between one and three o'clock. In the meantime a doctor was called to police station to attend one of the women, who was sick. and at one of the houses one woman was so sick she could not be removed. They were practically the same women taken in this raI as on the former visit of the state police. A quantity of liquor was secured in each place.
 The total number arrested was A from five of the houses, of whom 14 were men.
 From the sixth place there were taken two men and two women, mak- ing total of AS arrested altogether
