DOG TRAVELS 5000
MILES TO FIND MASTER
Traversing Three States Searching
For Owner Shows Remarkable
Devotion Of Collie.

Fiction is outdone by fact in the
devotion of collie dog that was lost
somewhere in Iowa, followed his mas.
ter's auto to Wolcott, Ind. land not
finding the owner, returned from In
diana TO his home at Silverton Ore
gon. The FAITHFUL collie literally ira
versed three states searching for his
owner, and arriving at Indiana toc
late to overtake him, took the long
hike back acrss seven states to the
Pacific Coast. He arrived in Silver
ton, Oregon, February Is, having
travelled nearly three thousand miles.
TANKS worn thin, toe-nails worn to
the quick and feet bruised from his
long race to reach home.
The owner, G. F. Brazier, a restau-
rant man ,motored to Iowa to visit
relatives, carrying the collie puppy a.
long in his motor car.
The dog was lost in Iowa and the
owner advertised extensively but
could not recover him. When he en-
tered the restaurant in his home town
he gave joyous yelp and made a
leap for his astonished owner.
How he negotiated nearly three
thousand miles over highways and
bridges, across rivers, streets and
viaducts in cities is a mystery. The
collie will be presented with silver
medal by the Oregon Humane So
ciety.

BAD HEALTH CAUSES
JOHN H. BAILEY TO
QUIT SENATE RACE
State Senator Undecided
as to His Political
Future.

CuerO. Tex, March 29.-State Sena-
tor John II. Bailey. who had plan
ned 10 make the race for United States
Congress this year, is at present at
Cuero hospital recovering from Il
recent operation and has decided not
to make the race this year because
of his health.
81 had, as you know, fully intended
becoming candidate for Congress.
said Mr.. Bailey, land had partially
perfected an organization of my
friends for the coming campaign. hav-
ing visited all of the counties of the
district except one. Political condi-
tons in the district, and even in my
home county, are such as TO render
necessary an active, continuous and
intensive campaign in order to be
successful.
My recent and unexpected illness,
requiring severe and painful opera
ton. has confined me for an indefinite
time to the hospital, and while | am
now recovering it will be some time
longer before | am able to leave the
hospital. and my physician advises me
that in the present condition Of my
health. il would be not only unwiSe.
dertake the strenuous work of an ac-
tive campaign during the heat of the
coming summer.
However much l regret it, shall
have therefore. to decide not to enter
the race for Congress in the July
primaries, and the disappointment will
be as great to myself, as TO my many
personal and political friends. who
have assured me Of their loyalty and
friendship in the event of my candi-
dacy. and for which / shall ever be
grateful and ready to reciprocate
whenever the opportunity presents it.
SELF
Asked as to his plans in regard to
running again for the state Senate
from his district, Senator Bailey re-
piled:
THAT is a matter that so far |
have not thoroughly considered and
have not had AN opportunity Of dis
cussing with my friends and con-
stitaents in this senatorial district.
When | shall have recovered my
health sufficiently to give the matter
