Wanted an Item Counted.
Editor Sentinel: The following com-
munication nucleated in an evening pa-
per last night:
In last Monday' a issue of the Evssiso
8mm there was an insulting item
connecting me with the shooting of a
dog near or on Sunday after-
noon. I Journalist Thomas to
lave it contradicted, but he very kindly
didn't do it. Now the facts are.there
was amaddog onCroaa street. I had
reached my gate when I heard toi
shots, and turned back to awer nthe
cause. and found it was Police Captain
Dann,or somebody else. who shot the
dog. I had nothing to do with it. Con-
sequently I did not shoot it. In fact I
never shot adcg. nor never had an in-
clinationto shoot one. except it might
be the one who furnished Tan Summer.
with the aforesaid item. I think how-
ever. It would!» Igocd powder wasted.
peotfnlly, Taurus B. Home.
It is but fair to state concerning the
above that Mr. Hopper did come to me.
He had his war paint on and proved
himself to be a full-fledged RedMan, and
onset whom the tribe of Uncas Council
might be proud. He was not only scalp-
ing mad, but was dog-gone mod (no
pun intended). lie denied that he had
ever killedsomuch as a fly or a poor
Jersey skeeter, let alone a dog. He
wanted the item corrected. and that in
short order. I told him I did not write
ing anything about it he should go to
headquarters, as the item probably more
from the main ofiice. He did not do it.
however, but chose to make his correc-
tion in his own way. i am very sorry
that Mr. Hopper has been put to such a
severe task, and to the exertion of so
much brain power as the above would
seem to signify. Respectfully.
