Mad Dog at Modale

Modale suffered q mad dog
scare yesterday which it Is
hoped will prove only a scare.
A dog was found running
around mad and before it could
be killed it had bitten fourteen
other dogs. A chase was i'm
mediately started and the dog
killed but when the pursuers
came up with him he attacked
the car in which the men were
riding. Five of the dogs bitter
have been killed and the re-
mainder will suffer a like fate
as soon as they can be found
The dog came into Nj dale from
the road leading to Calhoun
and it is advisable for the peo-
pie living along this road to
watch their dogs and cattle for
the least sign of rabies and
take proper precautions imme-
diately if any signs appear.

Ash Davis Entertainment

The M. E. church was fairly
we'll filled again last night to
hear the second number of the
lecture course. Prof. Warren
introduced both the speaker Of
the evening and the Treble Clet
who gave the prelude. In we'll
chosen words he spoke of the
work being done by the ladies
of the Improvement League
and paid a very high tribute to
the organization, known as the
Treble Clef, speaking of them
as the organization that could
always be relied upon and that
could fill in at any time or
place.
Altho' only a part of the
chorus was present, they sang
exceptionally we'll, giving a
double number which was well
received.
In introducing Ash Davis,
Prof Warren used some good
witticism. For an hour and 8
half the audience kept wonder.
ing " hat was coming next, as
Ash Davis portrayed the Lop-
sided people" He began with
man sound asleep, ard by the
addition of a line now and then,
soon had him wide awake and
in the happiest mood imagin-
able. Then came the story OF
the hat and the story it told &C.
cording to how it was placed
upon the head of the wearer.
he was funny, humorous and
witty. In his chalk talk, his
chalk never began at the same
place.
He paid very high tribute
to women and is an advocate of
VI mans suffrage.
Then followed sketches Of
public characters, landscapes,
both right side and upside down
and his closing sketch was of
the old home, with q reference
to our much beloved song,
There's no Place Like Home. !"
1t was an evening we'll spent by
those in attendance as it was
instructive as we'll as entertain
ing.

Booze

l am sorry to say for the past
nine months, the space leading
north between Heath's Grocery
Store and my Wall Paper Store
is truly worthy of the name
WHISKEY ALLEY. During
the paving season it was going
on very extensively and was a
demonstrated fact that certain
parties were running a joint. l
thought when the paving was
completed, the Booze would
60 also, and did not pay much
attention to the matter-but
Judging by the buns that infest
our alley day and night the
business seems to be Furnishing
greater than ever, and l wish
to say right here there is going
to be something DOING, If it
continues in this district.
BY the way where are all
those temperance advocaters
that were 90 enthusiastic on
the temperance questio n?
What's the reason they
moved away, before the' law
was tried out-moving to larger
cities where their sons pass by
the open saloons day and night?
While I am strictly temperate
and believe In the same I pre-
fer the open saloon to q law not
enforced.

That the validity of marriages.

up with Louis Murphy, Co'lec-

"But," Mr.. Collector, "what
about the validity of the mar
riage if the stamp isn't af-
ixe0?"
"rake that to the courts if
you enjoy it, was the retort.
Failure to sffix the proper
stamp will subject the person
remiss in this duty to a heavy
fine or imprisonment. The
government doesn't want to
put any brides or grooms in Jail
and it wants to leave all minis
ers in the pulpit, but they'll

there Is at least one labor union

We refer to the International

This organization of printers

1t has 700 subordinate unions
throughout the United States,

islands, the Philippine islands,
and Porto Rico.
Some Of the more important
features Of this model trade
union are:
1t maintains at Colorado

ers' home and tuberculosis sani-
torium, where it cares for its
aged and disabled mem bers, and
especially provides for the treat

1t pays a burial benefit rang

of any member who has been in
good standing in the organiza-
tion for a period Of five years or
more.
1t maintains a school for the
technical instruction of appren-
tees and printers which can be
taken advantage of without in
reference with their regular
work and at a very small cost.
In addition to it's Home and

Colorado Springs, the Inter

has been in the forefront Of the
battle against tuberculosis that
is now being waged for the elm

Local unions Of the Inter
