Can Dogs Reason?

A certain bull pup has amused resi- dents in New Hartford by his various stunts. He is very fond of playing with other dogs and particularly with Doctor, the blooded bulldog owned by Miss Minerva Farley Doctor is kept tied up a portion of the time, so the visiting pup sets t0 work and bites his leach apart to allow the older dog more liberty iii playing with him. Each day that Doctor is tied the pup appears on the scene and sets to work and ib- crates h11n. Mrs. Farley has repeated ly watched this performance and gives the pup credit for considerable intellect and strong, sharp teeth.

The FseefvorS sale of the Westerly Marrow Fabric company is not encour- aging to the stockholders who expected sDrns return from their investment. The result shows that the receipts are not sufh-ient to pay the outstanding claims and in fact there win not be much lert for general creditors after the preferred claims, including the re- czivers' reoompense, are satisfied.
 The real estate was sold for s15.010 and the personal property S1,772.07. a eotal of t1s,TS2.o7. The outstanding claims are nearly S24,O0O, or about s1. oo0 more than was realized from the sale of the property.
