For this reason the courts have allowed the fees of 125 a day.

When living near Neosho Falls, Kan., a neighbor, who was a market bird hunter, went from there to Jktern Missouri for the purpose of y punting quails and prairie chickens in the fall of the year, says He took with him a favorite pointer dog. The route taken was southward some fifty miles to 1arsons, Kan., by railroad, a writer in Science. thence northeastward to Fort Scott and on Into Missouri, nearly due east from tho latter point. All went very well Lr a fow days after ho began hunting, but by some means the dog became lost from him. He spent two days hunting it. and as it was no use to try to hunt without the dog he went hi me and there found the dog all right According to the report of his family the dog had reached there within two dajs from the time he had lost him. and as the distance was ruoro than seventy-fivmiles It U quite cert tin that the dog took a near cut for homo. Now, if this dog had no sense of direction what had he that led him to tako what we may believe to be the confidently and true course for straight home when he had passed over tho other two sides of the by rail?

Thomas, and with another tailor, named Wilson, went ashore on the coast of Kamchatka to fill water casks. A hurricane drove the schooner oil and the men were left ashore. They bad no provisions and traveled Inland to a camp of Russian soldiers. There they were seized and accused of being spies. They were sent to Garaacock, a convict station. Paradyce tells of the horrible cruelty Inflicted on the prisoners there. Although Wilson and himself were roughly treated they were cot Bogged as other prisoners were. There were about 8,000 convicts at the station, and every Wednesday those who hod disobeyed rules during the week were given fifty lashes with the knout, A woman about to become a mother wa knoutted and three hours later gave birth to a dead child. Of 6,003 convicts In camp 1,800 wore a ball and chain. Many men were too feeble to walk and were dragged along by their companions. Soldier would prod them with bayonet to make them move more quickly. The convicts were fed with black bread and raw salt meat. Finally Paradyce and Wilson were taken to Vladlvostoek. From there they were sent to the Kara gold fields, a fifteen days Journey, They sutTcrcd frightfully from hunger and fatigue. Wilson gate out and bad to be carried In a wagon.

The passengers brings news of tbe arrest of tbo president of San Domingo by French naval officer In San Domingo City. According to tbe story the president had taken $02,000 from a French bank, the manager of which called upon two French cruiser lying in the harbor to prevent the escape of the president to Monte Christo, whither he was about to start to quell an insurrection. Tbe presidents sudden descent on the bank was tbe outcome of a legal suit between him and some of the French residents, Involving tho payment of tbe money. Tho case was sent to a higher court for judgment. Apparently this was delayed too long to suit the president, so be ordered out his militia, with Instructions to seize whatever French gold they could find. The soldiers proceeded lo the bank, tore down tbe doors and blew open the vaults, and carried off IG2.003 la cash. Tbe French commander on the cruisers was apprised of the outrage and sent au armed force on shore and captured the president a he was about to proceed to Monte Crlsto, a place on tbe Dominican and Haytlan borders. The president wa held in custody and word sent to France regarding the affair. An of 1100,003 wo demanded, but this demand wo withdrawn, pending the arrival of the next French mall.

Alone on the top of a sixteen-storbuilding, the Great Northern hotel, save for the company of a mad man who fiercely strove to hurl him over the edge, was the experience of George Doyle of Chicago, Friday, and to his quick wit rather than to his strength he owes his life. One week ago Albert Gedney and his son Robert, a young man, registered from Philadelphia. Thursday the elder Gedney went to Omaha on business, leaving his son lu Chicago. Residing at the hotel Is one George Doyle, a funner Philadelphian, who had known young Gedney in bis youth. Naturally they were much together, and, Gedney forgetting or not realizing that the hotel wa one of the vantage view points of the city, proposed that they go to tbe Masonic Temple to take a look over the city. Finally they went to the roof of the new hotel. They stood for some time looking over the city when suddenly Gedney gave a strange laugh, and grabbing Doyle by the hand be began pulling him across tbe small square and buck again, as If tbe cool breeze hod exhilarated him to playfulness. Thenlj said: Hold my hand, I want to look down. Doyle did so, and be gazed over the side at the people who looked like pigmies below. Then, with w baneful light In hie eyes and with a strange earnestness In his voice, In contrast with his recent playfulness, he said: Youve got to Jump off the building or Ill throw you off. 'For the first time It came back to Doyle's memory that Gedney had several year ago been treated for a mild form of Insanity lo an asylum at borne. Ills first Impulse, os the sickening realization of the situation came over hliu, was to call for help, but Gedney U larger and stronger than lie.and such a policy might have meant almost Instant death. He tried to temporize and treat the matter os a joke. Will you jump! said Geduey, and without waiting for a reply he seized Doyle and to drag him towards the edge. Doyle and fought with the desperation of the men closely locked together staggered to and fro over the roof, Grdney steadily foreleg his man towards the edge. Twice Doyle tripped him and they fell together, and twice Gedney broke away only to renew the attempt to hurl Doyle to the pavement far be- '.fiSCJ DOS1 FOB II y MEXICO.

The bill proposes to form In rural parishes having a population of 8C0 and upward a council to be annually elected by ballot by men aud women having the right to vote for members of tbe county council. These parish councils are to couslst of not less than five nor more than fifteen members. They are to take over all the existing powers of the vestries, excepting a regards church affaire and church charities, and they are to have control of the parish property, land allottments, roads, water supply, the local watching and lighting, tho sanitation generally, and they are to have charge of tbe compulsory purchase of land, uuder the aanction of the local government board, lo urban districts os well as rural districts the bill abolished electoral disqualification on the ground of sex. The administration of tbe poor law Is to remain under the jurisdiction of hoards of guardians, os It is now, but the boards are to be elected under the new franchise.
