CINCE we no longer have a dog,
~ we seem to realize that the
community is over-run with them.
Some of the dogs are good ones,
of course, and no doubt some OF
the ours are worshipped by their
young owners, too. But at that,
there are too many of 'em running
wild and a scare like the one we
had up the river road this week
comes in right handy about every
once in so often. The police force
did just right in killing every dog
which they knew had been bitten
by the infected one. And parents
whose kids adopt mongrels OF
various sorts would be on the safe

Washington-Nature's Paradise;
Mans Opportunity.
WASHINGTON SHOWS RAPID
DEVELOPMENT
(J. K. Mccormack, Union Secur-
tiles Co., Spokane).

tiles Co., SpOkdneJ.
TT is high time the citizens of
i Washington should have a high
er appreciation of the wonders OF
the state and it's rapid develop
ment, as we'll as it's prospects, and
speak favorably of their home.
The pioneers might have had some
doubt of the future of the state
but they took hold with full ener-
gy and vigor and started a pro-
gress which has increased wonder
fully.
It is stimulating for a man who
has lived in the state for fifty
years to think over what has been
done in that period. Wonderful
cities have grown up, such as Sc
attic, Tacoma, Spokane, Yakima
Walla Walla, and hundreds of
smller communities where people
are prosperous.
Timber interests have grown to
magnitude, fisheries has developed
to an important industry, grain
fields of eastern Washington are
producing food for thousands be-
sides the inhabitants of the state,
the Yakima valley has grown into
small principality turning in mil
lions of dollars and the Wenatchee
valley has grown into one of the
best orchard sections in the U. s..
Although pioneers had to travel
by pack horse or slow wagons we
are well supplied with railways
and have some of the most scenic
and well built highways in Ameri-
ca. We have all of the modern inn
provements and any man of reas-
enable disposition should be happy
in this state; should be unwilling
to leave it, and should speak con-
tinuously of the beauties and the
wealth which have been developed.
Development has probably been
more rapi' in the state in the last
fifty yea han any known section
of the wo--d in similar period. I
wonder if we appreciate that or
whether we are prone to complain
because we think development has
been too slow to satisfy our ambi-
tion. Each should take personal
pride in boosting his state to those
with whom he comes in contact.

 Boil Over

Philadelphia. Doc. IF N-Phila- delphians who were abroad early to- day found no trace of an acrid. stinging vapor that hung over much of the midtown section for three hours last night causing throat irri- tation and dimming eyes.
 The mysterious fumes not only hung over the city like blue and gray fog, but penetrated into office buildings. homes. street cars and subway stations. Persons who breathed it experienced sudden feeling of strangulation. coughed and pressed handkerchiefs to their mouths. Hundreds hurried into the- aters and picture houses in the af- fected areas while other hundreds sought relief by purchasing throat lotions and cough drops.
 After thousands of complaints and inquiries had poured into newspaper offices. fire and police stations and the city health bureau. Herbert M. Parker. chief of the bureau of sani- tation. discovered the source of the fumes.
 Recognizing them as of sulphuric acid origin. he drove to the plant of the E. I. Dupont de Nemours corporation in South Philadelphia. Here he learned an employe had neglected to turn on an oil blanket over vats in the contact sulphuric acid plant. They boiled over and great clouds of stinging fumes swept over the city. The fumes were plainly visible but odorless.

ESCAPED LUNATIC
CAUGHT AT WINDOW

Sheriff Bell of Window recently
noticed a man lettering around the
depot in that city in such disorgan-
lied manner that the sheriff believed
the man was intoxicated. Upon be-
ing questioned the man could give no
satisfactory answers. He said he had
sore feet and could not walk straight
for that reason.
The officer, however, kept an eye
on him and later in the evening they
found that he had passed worthless
check to Joe Norton of Window for
/ a pair of old shoes and it was then
decided best to take the man into
scustody. He was found to be a
strange actor and was taking pills
almost continually. The officers
found that his name was John Baker,
formerly of Winnebago, and upon
calling officers there it was found
that the man was an inmate OF the
hospital for the insane at st. Peter,
who had escaped with others some
months ago.
