A DOG IN CHURCH.
All the Congregation Interested in an
Incident of a Summer Day.
“You might think,” said a church
usher, “phat there was nothing to do in
a church'but seat people; but, dear me,
strange things are happening all the
time. One summer day, when the
church doors were open, I saw a dog ap-
pear. I stood at the back of the pews
just beyond the end of the middle aisle,
and the dog stood right at the end of the
aisle, looking at me and wagging his
tail. He was a nice looking dog, a sort
of red dog, shaggy and gentle looking,
but of course church was no place for
him. But. he was nearer the aisle than
Iwas, and he was bound to make the
tour of the church, and I was sure he
would start down the middle aisle the
moment I made any serious effort to put
him out. Still I advanced toward him
with a friendly bearing and outstretched
hand, hoping that he would stand still
until I could get between him and the
aisle. He wagged his tail good humor-
edly when he saw me approach, but be-
fore I could gethear enough to cut him
off he started down the aisle, so softly
that nobody heard him, and nobody saw
him until he had passed.
He came down to where he had started
and then trotted along the base of the
pews and out of the church by a door
opposite to the one by which he had en-
tered. The instant he stepped through
the door we heard the most tremen-
dous uproar; he had met another dog
outside.
“As a matter of fact, I suppose our
dog had come into the church to escape
the other dog; he didn’t want :to fight,
(1 I suppose he_ thought if the other
og saw him go into a church he’d feel
kind of ashamed of himself: and go
away. But he didn’t; he just hung
around outside and waited. The peace-
,ful dog was diplomatic, you see, too; he
went out by a different door from the
one he came in at, thinking, no doubt,
that the dog that wanted to fight would
wait for him where he came in, and that
he would escape the other dog and get
away quietly by going out at the other
door; but the other dog must have
guessed his intentions, for he was Wait-
ing for him there.
“Our dog didn’t want to fight, but he
didn’t rim away; good natured, shaggy
and gentle as he was, he pitched in and
fought like a demon. Between them.
they made more noise than an earth-
quake. It pretty nearly broke up the
gravity of the entire congregation, and
the sexton had to go out and drive them
away; so we never knew how the fight
came ou .”
Too Delightful.
“Isn’t -this perfectly delightful?” she
asked, as they sat on the sofa with their
arms intertwined, and the brillantine on
his mustache not very far from the crim-
son balm on her lips.
“Dorothy,” he replied, “when I know
that your mother is listening on the
stairs, that your father is waiting in the
passage with a. cane, that the bulldog is
loose in the front yard, and that your
say that it is delightful?”—London Tit~

Afflicted With Rheumatism.
Mr. Geo. A. Mills, of Lebanon, Conn,
says: “I was afflicted with rheumatism in
my back all last winter. It was so severe
at times that I could not stand up straight,
but was drawn over on one side. I tried
different remedies without receiving any
relief until I bought a bottle of Chamberlain s
Pam Balm. After using it for three days,
according to directions, my rheumatism was
gone and. has not returned since. ,, I have
since recommended it to others and know
they have been benefited by its use. For

HOW A STEER IS OUT UP.
The" Chicago Trust Has Paralyzed the
Whole Meat Industry.
Careful study of the accompanying
diagram of a. prime steer as it reaches
the wholesale butcher from either of the
local establishments of the Chicago “Big-
Three,” or their New York allies, will.
clear up many statements that have been
published since the cattle combine put
the screws on and made beef dearer.
“Such beef as I handle,” said a dealer,
“will weigh 800 pounds, that is two
sideswill weigh 400 pounds each. This
is dressed beef, all of which is cut up and
sold. There is no waste. The fat and
bones are sold. Such extras as you
see on the butchers’ stalls as brains,
tongues, liver, tripe, oxtails, etc., do
not come to us as dressed beef. These
are special line’s handled by special
men. .
“There is a steer,” and the dealer
pointed through the glass door of a re-
frigerator, “that weighed 800 pounds
when laid on these scales to-day. I paid
9 cents a pormd for it. Don’t believe
these 11 and 12 cents stories, for they are
not true. It cost me $72 at the ware-
house. I hauled it here, must pay my
men to cut it up and deliver it and all
that. What will I get for what cost me
$72? Just $75.26.
’ “ ace.-

“A steer goes into an abbatoir on the
hoof and every ounce of him goes out a
commercial commodity. A 1,200 pound
steer will net 800 pounds of beef. The
hide is sold to the tanne‘rs. A limited
number of tails go to dealers in ox tails
and special dealers buy the tongues,
which are sold to delicatessens here, and
in Chicago go to the canners of ‘lunch
tongues.’ There isa limited demand for
brains. All livers find a ready sale, and ,
the lining of the paunch, known as
tripe, is growing in such favor that it
is all disposed of to dealers who
pickle it. W
“From the pure fat is extracted the
highest, quality of oleo oil. This is gen-
erally exported to Holland, where it
enters into the make up of the gilt edged
Dutch butter that commands fancy
prices in England. From other fats
come the lower grades of oleo oil. From
selected bones are secured, by boiling,
gelatine, which is the basis of all cheap ,
jellies and marmalades. Stearine, used i
as a base of chewing gum and for many
other purposes, is the product left from
the process of pressing out oleo oil.
“All hoofs are boiled, and the valuable
commodity known as neat’s foot oil is
secured. The horns are sold to manu—.
facturers of combs and fancy goods.
The hoofs after boiling are also used in
the making of horn ornaments. Every-
thing that is left, blood, entrails, etc., is
made into fertilizing material, not the
least valuable commodity turned out of
the abbatoir. I have no positive figures,
but I believe that the 400 pounds of
‘oifal,’ the term' used as applying :to
everything except the actual beef, will
net " the killer from $20 to $22. The
wholesale slaughterer does not get any
of the worst of it at any stage of the
game.”
Public Honors to a Veteran Nag.
" One of the strangest celebrations ever
held took place at Greenville, Pa., re—
cently. It was the thirty-third anni-
versary of the birth of “Old Daddy,”
the veteran horse used nineteen years in
transporting the mails in this city. The
procession formed at the engine house
at 1.20. Mr. Hughes, Daddy’s owner,
accompanied by Postmaster Perry, rode
at the head in the mail wagon, which
was drawn by Daddy. Then came the
band, in regular order, followed by ex-
press, delivery and other wagons in
great numbers, all of which, with the
horses drawing them. were profusely
decorated with flags, hunting and ban-
ners. The outfit obvered eight or nine
squares in length and traversed the
principal streets, finally disbanding at
the starting point. The entire city
turned out and many houses were deco-
rated in honor of Old Daddy, who,
seemed to take a placid enjoyment of
the honors paid him.

THE FREE PASS AS A BRIBE.
Little Else Can Be Made of It, Yet It is
Universally Sought by Legislators.
When a railroad sends out free
passes to the holders of public office it
intends that such passes shall operate
as a' bribe, and long experience in poli-
tics shows that they have the intended
effect.
It is a theory of 'some holders of such
passes that they are too high minded to
be influenced by favors which they ac-
cept from those whose interest it is to
secure special privileges or special ex-
emptions at the expense of the public.
But that is mere theory. In practice
the Officeholder is habitually bribed
when he makes a habit of deadheading’
railroads, telegraph companies and
other corporations liableto be. affected
by the way in which he does his duty
and leaves it undone.
It is well known to all who know how
political conyentions and legislatures are
manipulated that free railroad passes
are among the most powerful means of
controlling them. Hence many of the
States have constitutional provisions
for the impeachment and removal of
any Officeholder found using a free pass.
For the same reason the Interstate Com- .
merce law prohibited the issuance of
such passes. ~ .
