"But I'm not

and his strange Caller. And after all
this chat about his being strange you
will laugh when | tell you that his
Caller was very ordinary little Spar
row.
Into the Animal House flew the
Sparrow. The Keeper called out to
him:
"Where are you going, Sparrow
But the Sparrow did not answer. He
flew right through the Animal House
until he reached Mr.. HippOpotamus'
cage. Mr.. Hippopotamus was having
his bath, and he would not be inter-
rupted.
"The Sparrow was rather annoyed
that Mr.. HippOpOtamus didn't want to
come right out of the water to talk to
him and he scOlded from his perch on
the wire of the cage. There he sat
scolding away and the Hippopotamus
kept on splashing and spluttering as
he took his bath.
"All the People standing around saw
the Sparrow perch on the cage and
they thought the Sparrow was very
brave. But they did think 1t was most
strange that the Sparrow wanted to
call on the Hippopotamus. and that
the HippOpotamus had such little
Caller so different from himself.
"Soon the Hippopotamus came up

of his cage and the Sparrow hoped
over to wire a little nearer.
"'Mr. Sparrow, am sorry to be late

face grinned, and he showed his biz

Sparrows had been having. He told
about their quarrels and how they had
made up again. And he Dragged about
their Friends and Relations, the Song

BEWARE DOG OWNERS.

A recent examination of dogs heads
from widely separated sections of
the State shows an alarming preva-
lence of hydrophobia. Under the au-
thority conferred upon it by law, the
State Board of Health requests and
directs all persons owning valuable
dogs to keep them upon their own
premises or to have them carefully
muzzled, and sheriffs, chiefs of police,
constables and the people generally
are requested and directed to destroy
as painlessly as possible all unmuzzled
dogs running at large with a view to
the prevention of hydrophobia. Fail
ing to observe this request is punish
able by fine before any magistrate.
In Jefferson county nine persons
already have fallen victims to the
bites of rabid animals and il has been
due only to prompt administration OF
Pasteur treatment for rabies that hui
man lives have been spared by the
disease.

CONVICT LABOR
BILL PASSED
House Authorizes COnvictS To
Be Worked on Roads at
81 a Day.

Frankfort, KY, March 6.-The
Huffaker bill providing for the en-
ployment of convicts on the public
roads passed the senate with only one
dissenting vote Saturday, and a COM
panion measure, to prohibit interfer-
ence with convicts working outside
the prison walls, was passed unani-
mously. The dissenting vote was
cast by Senator Moore.
The senate also adopted a resolu-
ton fixing April 10 as the date when
it shall convene in special session for
the trial of County Judge j. E. Viii
liams of McCreary county, accused of
high crimes and misdemeanors.
This action followed the presentation
in the senate of articles of impeach-
ment, prepared by the house.
The feature of the house session
was the passage of Representative
Hutchcraft's bill to require trading
stamp companies to pay license of
$1,000 before they can engage in bus
mess.
Senator Huffaker's convict labor
bill provides that the board of prison
commissioners shall, upon demand of
the commissioner of public roads, as
sign prisoners to be employed in the
manufacturing, quarrying, mining and
preparation of road and bridge ma
terial to be used by the state depart
ment in the construction of roads and
bridges. The commissioner shall
pay for the services of these conYicts
from the state road fund at the rate
of 81 a day for each convict hired.
The commissioner of public roads,
with the approval OF the governor is
empowered TO purchase the neces-
sary machinery and equipment for
the construction of roads and bridges.
The sum to be expended is limited to
ten per cent. OF the state aid fund.
