COLLIE HALTS A BULL.
Effort of Dog Saves the Lives Of Fa-
Their and Son.

st. Louis. - Fannie, Scotch collie,
saved the life of John @. Shafer,
farmer and the dogs owner, and John
Shafer father of the dogs owner, on
two different occasions In one week,
when the men were attacked by an in
furiated bull, according to a story told
In Marine, Ill.
When the father went to the barn to
feed, the bull attacked him. In trying
TO get away he fell several times and
was bruised. His granddaughter, Mel
lie Shafer, arrived home from school
at that time and she sent the collie
into the lot. The dog halted the bull
and permitted the old man to escape.
The next morning, when the son
went to the barn to feed, the bull at
tackled him. His cries attracted Mrs
Shafer, who went to the lot in her
night clothes, taking the dog with her,
for the second rescue.

W|LLYS TAXES HIS
 MEN ID THE CIRCUS

Host to 60,000 people-one- quarter of the entire population of Toledo John N Willys, president of The Willys- Overland Company, of Toledo, Ohio, entertained for three days-July 27. 2S, and 29. the families of the 17,300 employees of The Willys- over land Company and those of several other Toledo factories associated with his big automobile plant. with six performances of the Barnum X Bailey circus.
 For three days everything was free from the tickets admitting their bear CTS to side shows, managerie tent and main attractions. even to car tickets to and from the circus. Each em- ploye was presented with three ad- mission tickets and six car fares. Sixty thousand admission tickets and 120,000 street car tickets were specially printed for the occasion and dis tributed.
 For three days huge Overland and Willys- Knight flags waved from the center poles of the big tops-replac- ing for the first time the streamers of the Rarnum X Bailey circus. Large Overland banners were spread across the entrances to the tents. inviting all the guests to a joyous good time
 
 John N. Willys himself, who came to Toledo from New York for the open ing performance. bringing with him as his guests number of the big gest railway officials of the country. In Toledo they were joined by John Ringing, head of the circus, who had also came to Toledo to supervise per sonally the Overland Circrs Party"
 All of these voted the circus party an entirely new and thoroughly de- lightful departure in outings and en- tertainments. So well did John N. Willys enjoy the first show that he viewed several subsequent perform ances during his stay here.
 But John x. Willys, his friends, his employees and their families were not the only ones to enjoy the party" In fact none were made so happy by three days stay of the circus as the performers themselves. No parades for three days. and a chance to sleep out of doors on the circus grounds or lat hotels. instead of in stuffy sleepers. caused pleasant break in the monot- onv of circus routine.

P|TTSBURC- JEROME
 STRIKE EXTENSIVE

JEROME, Aug. l0.-The strike of high grade ore reported some time ago from the Pittsburg- was found on the 500-foot level by drift ing m the west crosscut within 70 feet of the shaft, according to latest information from the management. The assay taken at the time the ore was discovered, gave II per cent cop per. with gold values The second as- say taken, after drifting on the vein a short distance showed 22.2S per cent copper. with values in gold.
 The course of the Vein inclines away from the shaft and gives indication of leading to a larger body. For the purpose of determining the depth and extent of the ore, a winze is being sunk at the point where the vein was encountered. The first shot yester- day afternoon exposed very favorable ore values. according to a report sent in from the mine last night.
 Manager C. R. Ballard. who is keep ing in close touch with the work. is very enthusiastic over the turn of af- fairs. He expresses confidence that a mine will be opened up at a depth of 500 to 1000 feet. That is the depth immediate operations are to be car ried to by sinking the shaft and cross cutting to intercept the winZe open ing. if findings are consistent with present showings. The work of sink ing the shaft is being pushed as fast as possible with the drawback of not vet having received machinery which, when installed next month will facili- tate matters to a marked degree.
 The new vein. since its appearance in the crosscut, has been an object of close scrutiny. The satisfaction of seeing it increase from a thickness of two inches to twice that size in dis tance of eight feet. has been very en- eouraging to Manager Ballard.

NEW YORK. Aug. 9.-(Wall Street.. Subject to restraints imposed by large and obstinate short interest, rodav's market made further upward progress. much of which was sur rendered in the heavy profit taking of the last half of the session. The improvement in speculative sentl- ment. engineered largely by the ac- ceptance of the railway brotherhoods stimulated a demand for high grade issues. although the inquiry from this source. it afterwards developed. was not far reaching.
 Price movements in the afternoon were slightly irregular. but gains pre- dominated. with Reading again the leader. that stock adding 12sc to yesterdays advance of almost seven points but closing at a net loss of lkc.
