Some Newspaper History.

Col. Sam w. Stairs, who founded The
Dover News in 1887. has again sold the
paper TO Hon. A. T. Carran, who be
came its editor and owner about three
years after 1t was launched upon the
journalistic sea- After Mr.. Curran had
been at the helm for about five years,
Mr. Stairs returned to Dover and launch
ed The Sc archlight, which he edited for
six months, and then suspended publ
cation. In the meantime Mr.. Stairs be-
came a Benedict, threw off the robe OF
bachelorhood and got married. The
day following his marriage, he approach
ed Mr.. Curran and asked him how much
ne wanted for The News. Mr.. Curran
made him price and few days later
the deal was consumnated, and Mr..
Stairs again became editor and owner.
This was about 1895, and he has con-
tinued to etit the paper from that time
until last week, when he sold it to Mr..
Curran, who has assumed charge Dur
ing its twenty-eight years existence,
! with the exception Of about two years,
Mr. Stairs or Mr.. Curran has owned and
edited the paper. The Dover News has,
from its beginning, proclaimed the
gospel of Democracy, but now becomes
Republican under Mr.. Curran's manage
ment. For the past five years Mr.. Cur
ran has owned and edited The Daily
Public Ledger at Maysvllle, which he
recently sold. Mr.. Frank Leslie Russo /,
attorney, of this city, served his ap-
premiership on The Dover News, and is
warm personal friend of both Col.
Stairs and Mr.S Curran. Recently Mr.
Curran paid him a visit in this city,
which was their first meeting in eleven
years. They are lifelong friends, and
they took The Dover News when it was
| quite youngster and nursed it through
strenuous times. Mr.. Stairs now be-
comes editor of The Daily Independent,
published at Maysville, and last week in
his salutatory, he SAID:
II do not expect to turn Maysville up
side down, or even to push over thai
portion already on edge, lest it might

The Yellow Doe.

Descend, o, Muse, with Tapping wing;
tits of the yellow dog I'd sing Nobody's
pampered pet is he, nor yet the dog of
high degree. Address him simply, as
it were, as just a yellow dog-a cur. He
harbors naught of family pride. nor in
Limousine does ride, nor at bench show
would he take prize-a ribbon or a
cake. Unlike the omeranian, he feeds
from the garbage can; nor on sofa pill
low maps. but at the butchers heels he
yaps; at passing vehicles he barks; he's
not allowed in public parks; no license
tag his dogship wears, but not a plea
yune he cares. He's usually without a
home, and when in dog days, white with
foam, quite crazed with thirst and lack
of meat, he runs yipyipping down the
street. Mad Dog! Mad Dog!" the fear
some cry goes mp up from all the pass
ersby, till some policeman with gun
fires twenty shots, or twenty-one, before
his bullets with a whir knock down the
suffering little cur. If out of this scrape
he should get, he'd fall TO the dog
catcher's net. and then, as might have
been expected, turned over to be vivi-
sected, or else be taken TO the pound
where no one wants the little hound.
Often through the streets roam, some
yellow dog without home will follow
me along the street and then lie cring-
ing at my feet. What can you dor No
catalog will list that kind of yellow dog.
But take him in and give him food, he
can't express his gratitude. He banks
and wags his stumpy tail, lest he should
in expression fail. and in excess of &C.
stacy he proves what a nice dog is he.
Once let him get attached to you, he'll
prove loyal friend and true.

and are glad to know that some of the

Rockefeller in organizing his National
