Timothy, Famous
Canine Kagrant,
Is Assassinated

Timothy, the brindle canine va
grant, that baffled all efforts OF the
police force to capture, was assassi-
mated early today by Officer Coff-
man. Timothy was finally run to
earth, after a spirited pursuit. and
made to face the limb Of the law act
ing as firing squad Of one, with
eyes unbandaged, and receive the
leaden pellet from the officers "A
which was to snuff out a more or less
worthless canine life.
According to the minion of the law,
the brindle ''vag' had been mis-
named. The cognomen was appended
to the beast by the reporter who
made Timothy famous. Miss Tim
othy, perhaps. would have been more
in keeping with the sex of the ami
NAL
But Timothy 1t has been and Tim
othy 1t must bs even to the last line
Of the obituary notice. She was Tim
othy to members OF the force, Tim
othy to county officers and court
house attaches, who had watched the
peculiar antics Of the vagrant dog
about the court house square. and
she was Timothy to the public, which
had come to know the rowing. un-
claimed canine from the publicity
given her because Of her nomadic ca
reer and the sagaoity shown in avoid
ing capture by tho bluecoats from
the city building.
Timothy was the second "vag" dog
to worry the police, and was less
noted than her predecessor. who baf-
filed the offic ers for months. The
original "tramo" canine, however, fin
ally fell prey 10 his appetite and ap-
preached an officer. expecting feed.
He was tricked and trapped. and.
like Timothy, faced the executioner
with his back to a wall.
The outlaw Timothy gained con-
siderable public sympathy because of
her cunning, hut the sympathy was
deserved only because of that cum
ming. for there was no other attribute
deserving commentator which Tim
othy displayed.
1t is doubtful II Timothy would
have been captured had she not been
surrounded. at the time, by SO many
canine admirers.

A bonus equal to 10 per cent Of
their yearly salaries. and amounting
in the aggregate to about $4,000. Is
to be paid teachers of the city
schools. This bonus which amounts
to a wage increase. has been deter
mined on by the teachers committee
and has been approved by the board.
The bonus will be paid on the last
pay day Of the school year to those
teachers who are employed at that
time. Those that have resigned DUR
ing the year will not participate In
the division.
1t Is estimated that the majority
of the teachers will receive 500 I'M
der this bonus plan and that the
minimum viii be about $50 and the
maximum about $3.50. Tho bonus
was ordered paid because the board
recognized that the cost Of living has
increased since the salary increase,
in conformity with the state law.
was put into effect last year.
Full Pay When Sick.
No demand has been made by the
teachers, altho 1t was known to the
board that many Of them were dis
satisfied. The bonus will increase
the city school districts pay roll for
teachers from 100000 to about
$4,000 for the school year.
Another salary benefit for teachers
has been an addition to the rule re-
garding pay of teachers when sick.
This rule has been that when teach
ers were away from their work be-
cause of sickness they were allowed
one half pay for q period not to
exceed four weeks.
The new rule put into effect IL
that where teachers are away from
work because they are sick with
quarantinable diseases they will re-
ceive full pay for a period not long
err than four weeks. This rule allow
ing full pay Is in addition to tho old
rule governing half pay but the for
mer applies only to diseases that are
quarantinable. The ha1f-pay rule
remains in effect but It's benefits are
limited to sickness caused by other
than uuarantinable diseases.
The theory on which the full-pay
rule was put into effect IL that
teachers who arc taken with Quaran-
Unable disease probably usually con-
tract the diseases in the school room.
A few of such cases have developed
recently and the board feels that 1t
is unfair to the teacher that she
should have the doctors bill to pay
and lose her salary besides.
