Great Painters Love story,

Turner's love story Is tragic. Some.
where about the year 1897, while the
great painter was still at school at
Margate, he fell deeply in love with
the sister of one of his schoolfellows
The intimacy grew and continued, and
few days later Turner proposed and
was accepted. Then he went away for
couple OF years to pursue his art
studies, and during that time not n
message or letter came from him.
The young lady was hurt and offended
at such cruel treatment, and under the
smart Of neglect and pressure from an
unkind stepmother she accepted an.
other sutton. Within a week OF the
day fixed for the wedding Turner re-
turned. He obtained an interview
and pleaded his cause passionately,
but the girl refused to listsn to any
explanation.

HERE is A DOG THAT THINKS
remarkable Animal Counts Money
and Reads and Writes by Tap
ping With His Paw.

Mannheim, Germany.-The case of
the Elberfield horses no longer stands
quite alone. There exists at Mann.
helm a dog Of rather doubtful breed
who performs almost the same feata
MS his equine rivals. He Is less ad.
vanced than they in arithmetic, but
does little additions, subtractions and
multiplications Of one or two figures
correctly. He reads and writes by
tapping with his paw in accordance
with an alphabet which, it appears.
he has thought out for himself; and
his spelling also is simplified and
phoneticized to the utmost. He dis.
tinguishes the colors in a, bunch Of
MOWERS, counts the money in a purse
and separates the marks from the
pfennigs. He knows how to seek and
finds words to define the object or
the picture placed before him. You
show him, for instance, a bouquet in
a vase and ask him what it IS.
"a glass with little flowers" he re.
plies.
And his answers are often curious
ly spontaneous and original. In the
course of a reading exercise in which
the word herbs, autumn, CHANGED to
attract attention, Prof William Mack
enzie asked him If he could explain
what autumn was.
1T is the time when there are ap-
pies" Rolf replied.
On the same occasion, the same pro.
lessor, without knowing what it rep.
resented, held out to him card
marked with red and blue squares.
Whats that?"
"Blue, red, lots Of cubes" replied
the dog.

MAN GRIPS THE MULES FOOT
Former Football Star Performs an Un.
usual Feat With Strenuous
Animal ...

Trenton, N. J.-Patrolman John A.
Silverstein, a football star when in
the high school here, accomplished the
unusual feat here recently of holding
a mules foot. The brawny patrolman
tried to get the mule off the car
tracks when the animal let fly her
heels at him.
Silverstein grabbed one foot and
held on with such a grip that the ami.
NAL was powerless to yank It away
from him. He was dragged few feet
to lamppost, and then managed to
hold tight until others grabbed the
mule by the head.

TRYING TO STEAL A PRISON

other night it moved again at least 80
feet from its assigned spot. Then
the investigation began.
Now the cops are trailing the mis-

To add to the troubles of the force
Patrolman Krewson lost his keys, and
when he made an arrest and attempt

A Request OF the
Town Council

Would il he unreasonable for
the property owners on the east
side Of Main street to ask the
town trustees to construct this
fall the three street crossings,
east from the Gunnison Bank 4
Trust Co, east from SampliRsrs
and south from the recently CON-
pleted cement sidewalks around
the Dunkel Block?
1t is true that the general plan
has been for the town to Law
these crossings when blocks oi
cement were complete in each
direction, but this has been over
looked in many instances where
public interest seemed TO demand
it, as indeed should be the case.
The cement sidewalk building
from Main street to the court
house with connection north,
has been a decided Improvement,
but it makes still more apparent
the lack OF good footing east and
west in the main business part of
town and the lack of direct con-
nection of all Lower East Side
Main street with the court house
and Normal. 1t will be remem-
bered that the property owners
on Block 20 Main street, includ-
ing the Burnett properties, the
News-Champion, Mrs. l.. A..
Myers, 5. 5. johnson, City Hall,
etc, were the first in Gunnison to
unite in laying a long stretch of
modern cement sidewalk. 1t
happens of course, that of four
blocks in Central Main street.
this block, No. 20, contains two
lots with no walks. But if own
ers OF that property are not able
TO make the Improvement at this
time, Is 1t necessary to penalize
the rest of US any further
And, looking toward next
spring when SHOWS are melting
and the streets are flooded, one
can at least walk the curb along
these two lots.
NewslChampion is but voicing
/ common conversation in making
this request for consideration bv
the town trustees. Such an i'm
provement would. We believe. as
sist business in Gunnison more
than any other expenditure of
this amount of money.
