DOG CRUELLY TREATED.

 

 

 

Struck by the Care and Left in Ely
Avenue Two Days and a Night.

A pitiful case of suffering and nog-
Itct camc to the attention of passcrsby
in Ely avenue near the Springwood
bridge last night. A small fox ter-
ricr dog, which according to the child-
we was hit by the cars early Wedneo
day morning. had laid near the track
two days and a night. the heat from
his body having melted the snow and
ice. until it lay on the grass. The. edge
of the snow was stained by blood from
a wound somewhere in its head. and
the little fellow was suffering in a
way ptitful to see, when a ride was pro
cured and his misery ended.

His body was white, with considera-
ble brown about the head and face. and
if Ihc owner sees this and wishes to
bury his body. he may do so by inquir-
ing of Wilbur Smith. 108 Ely avenue.

says He is Not Trying to Array Omit

Towns Against Cltloo.
HARTFORD. Jan 29. --lu a letter to
the Hartford Post today George Austin
Bowen. of Woodatot-k. chairman of the
Farmers' Association. says: “The
attempt to make it appear that I am
trying to array the small towns agolnat
the cities has its origin in the ambl~
tions of stheming politicians and has
no foundation in fact. it would be
folly in this little state to attempt such
an alignment. even if it were thought
possible. The Farmers“ Association
Is not in any sense against the centers
of population. It is simply an organi-
zation for mutuhl protection. It will
use its influence to secure such legisla-
tion as will be beneficial to the ruroi
committees as such and to the rural
inhabitants as such. It will look to
prevent legislation of any kind lnlmlcar
to either. This does not imply. howev~
cr. that it will use its influence to so.
cure legislation hostile to thc cities.

THE AMUSEMENT QUESTION. ‘

The question ‘of amusements In re-
lation to the Christian life will be dis-
cussed Sunday morning next. at the
[First Methodist church by the pastor.
This question is of special interest at
this time in view of the approach of
the General Conference which will de-
termine the retention or removal of
the paragraph in the Discipline which
specifies certain amusements. Ito re-
moval would leave nothing but the
original rule of John Wesley on the
subject. This will be the third in the
series on “Christianity in Earnest."
The topic will be "Running with lbo
Footmen.”

to Recieve ihree ilteusaud

 

Members of the volunteer regiments
that went to the Philippines for service
during the Spanish- -Amerlcan war. and
the troubles in these islands following
the war. feel very much encouraged by
or the prospect of getting quite a sum
of money for which they have been
contending in the court of claim and
the supreme court of the United States.
There were In the neighborhood of 100
such volunteers in this city and vicinity
and If the case is won for them a con
siderable sum of money will come this
way.

The men enlisted as United States
volunteers and if they are cleaned as
volunteers they are entitled under the
law governing volunteers to two
Inontha' pay more titan their time of
service. This extra pay is given in
plate of a bounty for the encourage-
ment. of« volunteers in the time of the
government‘s need. The war depart-
ment claims that those men were in
effect only short time volunteers and
therefore do not. come under the class
of volunteers and are thus entitled to
draw the two months' extra pay.
There has been one case go through
both the court of claims and the an
preme court and a second case has re-i
cently been given a like decision In onei
of the courts Some of the local vol
untcers who are represented through
attorneys in sec bring these claims have
received notlce of the prospering of
the trance and are told that there seems
a prospect. of the war department's
tracking down entirely in the matter
and paying all the claims of this nature
presented.
These volunteers bavc also another
claim. which has notc yet been brought
into court and this is for travel pay.
At the time they enlisted the old law
was in force. This provided that all
volunteers should receive a day's pay
for ever". 20 miles traveled between

vice and the place of their enlistment.
As they were mustered out at San
Francisco this gave most of them about
3.300 miles or "ill days‘ travel pay.

GRANTED PLENARY POWERS.

 

 

Czar Plaeoo Mini-tors Over Local Of~

, fleialo of Taer.
ST, PETERSBURG. Jan. 29.—The
Caar has granted Minister of the ln-
terior Von Plehve and the governor of
the province of Tsar special plenary
powers over the local ofiieiuls of her,
‘in consequence of the latter's subver
sire tendencies. The government has
been aware for some time that the ad
ministration of Taer was showing in
various ways sympathy with the oppo-
nents of the existing order of things.
Recently the local authorities appoint-
ed teachers in the. national schools who
took advantage of their position to stir
up agitation against the government
and religion. This was the Immediate
cause for granting the plenary powers.
which permit the minister and the gov-
ernor to make appointments to district
ofilws which have been hitherto been
elective. to prohibit meetings. to expel
obnoxious persons, to dismiss ofilcials
considered dengcrous to public peace

FAR EAU‘TERN SITUATION.

Ruooia Will Not Answer Until Fight
Danger to Put.

PARIS, Jan. 29.—lt is understood
that the conferences between Foreign
Minister hamsdorli and M. Kurino, the
Japanese minister at St. Petersburg.
have permitted the latter to advise his
government concerning the position
Russia is likely to take in her forth-
coming answer but the officials here
say this was merely an intermediary
step towards adjusting the remaining
differences, as the answer is subject to
change until odlciaily communicated.

It is further said that Russia will not
answer until she feels reasonably as-
sured that her answer will not have
the effect of precipitating heatilitles.

The officials here are gratified at in
apparently authoritative statement
that Japan does not intend to fortify
the Straits of Cores. They say it win
remove one of the main obstac.les as
the moat recent negotiations showed
that Russia was unalterabiy opposed to
the creation of any condition in Korea
which would lead to closing that out-
let from the Sea of Japan. A strong
intimation has been made that Lit‘
maritime nations of Europe and the
[lulled States would have taken up the
declaration unless this declaration had
been made.

BIO PIRI AT UNIONVILLE.

Factory of the Union Nut Company
Practically Dmroyod.
l'NlUNVlLlJfl, Conn, Jan. filth—A
frame building of two and a half stor-
ies, occupied by the cutlery department
ofthe lipson Nut Company was gutted
by fire yesterday afternoon The loss
on the building. machinery and finish-
ed goods will reach $80..000 most of
which is covered by inorIranee. No ex-
planation of the origin of the fire is
given. It started apparently in an
air shaft between the outside wall and
the lining of the building near the

room.

The flames were drawn rapidly
through the walls and quickly enve‘
loped the whole building. A hydrant
service furnishes the village with fire
protection and with this the volunteer
fire fighters managed to arest the pro-
gress of the blaze after all except the
lower stories had been practically cou-
named The building was an old one.
and was for mcrh ow nod and occupied
by the Mecch ll: Hart Company. it
was sold about the years ago to the
l‘ Hpson Nut Company

Three other buildings of snraller
size. close to the cutlery building. were
saved. Seventy five bands will be
thrown out of work by the fire. ‘
