Dog Brings Troupe , of Actors to Station A dog s life is a hard thing to lead, declare several members of tbe Al Jol son troupe, which closed Its engagement Saturday night at the Boyd. After tie closing show, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Daubler boarded a Harney car, with their pet terrier In a grip. It whined. The conductor demanded that they get off and hire a Jitney. The ac tors refused. C. W. McDonald, another member of the troupe, added his ob jections. . The conductor called Policeman O. B. K nut son. and the officer tried to argue them off the car. Somehow or other, the policeman, the dog, the actors and the car crew got Into a mlxup on the car, and the net outcome waa a large lump on Daubler's head, raised by the copper's club. When the actors were brought to the station on a charge of disorderly con duct and resisting an officer. Captain Heitfeld decided that their offense was not large enough to warrant making them miss their train, which left within a few minutes, and he allowed them to go on their own recognisance.
