POLICE DOG IS REAL HERO
Breaks Leg While Herding Boys Out Of Danger of Speeding Auto
 mobile.

New York.-Bum, the celebrated po- has been granted a sick leave, so that a broken hind leg, received in the per fOrmance of duty, may mend.
 Bum was led into the station by Policeman Becker. He refused to all low his escort to carry him. He stood at attention while Becker made 8 re- port of the case and went with Beck CT to the policeman's home, where he will stay until the leg is better.
 Bum was on duty with Policeman Becker in Pitkin avenue, near Bristol street. Some children in Bristol street screamed at the approach of an auto mobile and Bum dashed out. The chill dren were not hit, but he was run over, and when he got up his left leg was dangling. A surgeon on a passing ambulance set the leg, and the neigh borhood veterinary put it in splints.
 Bum is French poodle with long pedigree. He was acquired by the Brownsville station about three years ago. Along Pitkin avenue he tours with his favorites, who are Policemen Becker, Kanuch and Schneidermuller. He rides in passing automobiles, street cars and is always on the pa trol wagon when it makes its rounds. He is indispensable in keeping crowds back at fires.
 Pitkin avenue merchants recently presented Bum with sweater coat.

Man Locked in BeIfry as Result of Joke Perpetrated
 by Friends.
BIG CROWD GATHERS
Pastor and Parishioners Aroused From Their SIumbers and Forty Motor cars Attracted by the Noise
 Made by Seaman.

New YOrk.-James M. Howard, pas tor of the Bedford Park Presbyterian church, who saw service as a chaplain with the Seventy-seventh division over seas, has been going to bed early since his return to America some time ago, and until II o'clock one night recently nothing had occurred to disturb his Slumbers.
 He scarcely dozed off when he dreamed that the bell in the steeple of his church was ringing as though sounding a warning of an attack by hostile afrplaneS.
 The dream soon resolved itself into a partial reality, and sitting up in bed he realized that it was in fact the bell in the steeple of his church on the corner of Two Hundredth street and Bainbridge avenue, the Bronx" and that fully 40 automobiles filled with people were in front of the church looking at the belfry.
 He dressed and as he was about to 20 out of the door met Policeman Charles Hess of the Bronx Park sta tion, whose attention had been attract ed by the crowd and the ringing of the bell. Accompanied by the police man and the sexton of the church, who had also appeared on the scene, the former chaplain let himself into the building and the trio proceeded to investigate.
 Pushing open the door of the bel fry he discovered Donald Hobson of 2436 Morris avenue, who recently was released from the navy, and who is one of his own practitioners.
 In a few words, however, UobsCn was able to explain his end of the

In the Days News

James Henry Thomas, NJ. P, who
is soon to make a tour of the Unit
ed States and Canada in the inter-
est of the international labor cause,
is regarded as the leading represen-
tative of labor in the British par
Lament. AS organizing secretary
of the Amalgamated Society OF
Railway Servants, his position is
an influential one. Mr.. Thomas be-
gan work as an errand boy when
years old, later he became an en-
CINE cleaner and rose to be fire
man and then engineer on the
Great Western railway. He was
made a town councillor of Swindon
and became president of the Anal
gamated Society of Railway Serv-
ants in 1910, the same year in
which he was first returned to par
lament. During the war he was
a staunch supporter of the allied
cause and threw all his energy into
the work of carrying on the war to
the end.

'Only sister.
Ellis manifested a growing in
terest in the clear-headed, intelli-
gent young man, who explained that
he had less than a thousand dollars
to invest in the prospective enter
prise. 1t all resulted in a sugges-
ton from Ellis that his visitor ex-
pand his business proposition and
take in the sale of automobiles, as
well as accessories, he furnishing
the capital. Ellis could sit around
the place and talk to customers,
making sure it was furnished with
q comfortable easy chair. He need
not forego his customary afternoon
snooZe, and, if there was any out
side work TO do, what more pleas
ant than a cushioned seat in a lux
uriously appointed car? So a bar
gain was cemented, the big store
Eras fitted up and the brother and
sister established in modest living
quarters.
Ellis was aroused to a new in
terest at the first sight of Edna
Wells, Edna kept the books of the
business, her brother put in full
time working up business and the
happy Ellis decided that he had fit
ted right into an ideal occupation,
if his activities could be so con-
sldered.
Just as the business seemed on a
settled basis Arnold broke down
from overwork. His doctor insisted
that he go away for two months
rest Edna was to go with him as
his nurse. The last evening they

Organizing Local Fishermen.

Rock Island ought to have fishing club.
If one isn't organized pretty soon there may
never be any.
Dfligent pole and line tests in waters here
about show that fish are almost extinct
nearer so this spring than ever before The
fisherman who gets nibble now considers
himself lucky If he catches fish big enough
to eat it is an exploit and if he gets enough
for meal for the family he has made history.
Fishermen are a hopeful lot but they can
rot survive indefinitely without fish Repeated
disappointment gradually wears down even
such magnificent optimism theirs. In time,
like the fish, they are threatened with extinc-
ton And SO if we are to have fishing club
at all we must be up and doing.
Waters around Rock Island are well adapt
ed to the propagation of game fish, but they
are also full of distractions which interfere
with the habits of the finny tribe and make it
easier to utterly destroy them. In Rock river
and in Sylvan slough the dams and in the
canal the locks. Below the dams and locks
the fish gather as they move against the cur
rent and there they are set upon with all the
sharing and killing devices known to CONNER
ciaI fishermen OF course nothing like this is
not in daylight A fish warden bent upon do
ing his duty could find regular employment
here If there were strong fishing club here
organized effort to get evidence for prosecu-
lions would be possible Nothing is being
done now.
When Rock river was declared a state fish
preserve it was assumed that the state game
and fish department was prepared to make
the regulations effective, but it hasn't been
done Probably those who fish for sport are
as much to blame anyone, for they have
not insisted upon enforcement. In the alb
sence of evidence to the contrary state OIL
GERS evidently assume that the law is being ap-
piled as strictly as public sentiment wishes it
to be.
If the fishermen were organized they could
put stop to SEEMING and snagging near dams
and taking fish below the legal size. They
could also bring influence to bear to have local
water stocked from the state and federal
hatcheries We are getting very little atten-
ton of that sort now. They could make the
regulations applying to fish preserves effective
in at least that part of Rock river which forms
the eountys eastern boundary. They could
put an end to the sale of game fish, which en-
courages infractions of the law.
Fishing never will be what it once was.
Draining swamps building levees and pollu-
ton of streams have done their work too well.
But if the laws were strictly enforced it would
still be possible now and then to go out with
pole and line and catch something besides
mosquitoes and chiggers. With even a little
encouragement fishermen would continue to
fare forth and commune with nature, which is
the main point, after all.

Burton was born lazy. He has new

When the friends of Ellis came
