Was This a Trained Mad Dog?
Not long ago a telephone caH was
received at the Flora avenue police
station requesting that an officer be
sent to a house to kill a dog supposed
ly mad. When the officer arrived he
met a negro.
“There’s a dog under them steps, an‘
he's shore mad,” the negro said excit
edly.
The officer fired one shot without hit
ting the dog. I he animal started to
run away.
“Gimme that gun quick. I'll kill
him,’’ the ucsrro shouted.
Saying which he reached for the of
ficer's revolver and it He then
pursued the ftog, aiming the revolver
at it as it r.m yelping down tl»e street.
The policeman waited, expecting the
negro to shoot at any moment The
negro and dog—and the revolver—went
round a corner and never came back.
The officer lias bought another revolv
er. He says he thinks the dog was
trained.—Kansas <'ity Star.

Witches Still Believed In.
Neglected by Um iwwera, witches
censed to be so notorious, but the be
lief conUnucd to exist, and does exist
now, In rural parts of Scotland sad
England, and In England and France,
even In the towns, fortune tellers,
whether they charge a guinea or «
shilling for their advice, are witches
under the terms of the old statutes
and flourish abundantly, but as they
are not burned they are supposed by
superficial oltservers to have been ex
terminated by schex* noanls and elec
tric lighting. The blacker sort of witch
who “overlooks" and casts spells oft
man and beast may Ik> found In tuny
rural region*-north and south. One of
them was brought before a squire and
Justice of the peace of my acquaint
ance ns a dangerous nuisance. Ho
said to her solemnly, “You know. Bat
ty, the Bible say* ‘Thou shalt not mrf-
fer a witch to live in the perish.**’
And she migrated, under certain condi
tions of compensation, to another par
iah.—London Post.

Her Ambition.
This Incident was told by an ac
tress who was once playing Boss-
lind, and playing It, as she fancied,
rather acceptably. As she entered her
dressing room at the theater one night
a note from a woman was handed to
her which read In this wise:
“Here lady I work for a dentist hot
I have spoiled so many of hls teeth
saying over yonr part in the play that
now I can say It just as well as yon
do, and I want you to let me try It
tonight and see If I can’t for thn den
tist says be cannot have me any mean
and I most pay for hls teeth, and no I
must go on the stage and I wfll he
here at 7 o’clock,"
The exchange was not mad*.
