canine set to watch the saloon of P. C.
Callesen, Seventh and Leavenworth streets,

healing tha efforts of burglars to enter the

onto the floor and then barked into the re

And it might be a true story, too, for
eutly Saturday morning the girl at "cen

"number, please," except an unintelligible

switched the connection to the police ope

MYSTERY ABOUT SHOOTING
Parties Wk Did It Bay it Waa Acci
dental mm 4 aa He Oat Was Hart
They Were Discharged.
All was quiet In the vicinity of Fifteenth
and Leavenworth streets. It was about I
o'clock Friday evening, and Assistant Pro
bation Officer "Doc" Carver was strolling
along Fifteenth street enjoying a cigar
while he tried to accustom himself to be
ing a bachelor while his better half, who
has just gone awa on a vacation, la ab
sent. Suddenly a shot rang out on the
Stilt night air, immediately preceding which
something passed through the air In a
hurry very near where "Doc's" head waa.
Quick as a flash the officer's right flew
to his hip as he whirled in the direction
from which had come the bullet. Hla eye
was just in time to see the lights go out
In the corner house at 71 South Fifteenth
street and at the same time hla trained ear
made out the sound of another shot above
the pounding of bis heart, coming from
the same house. At this our hero drew
his revolver and made up his mind some
thing was amiss.
In a few moments he had notified the
I police station and Patrol Driver Samuelson
; made a wild run tor the scene, with Officers
i Dillon snd Hell. The strange house at No.
. Tl wss entered, but Instead of more shots
the officers were met by a tearful and
frightened but pretty mulatto woman, who
told them how she had fired the revolver
accidentally; that she was awfully sorry
and that she humbly begged the pardon of
Mr. Carver for so nearly killing him. No
excuses would go with the officers, how
ever, and the woman, who waa Mrs. Rob
ert Taylor, and- her husband were taken
to the police station.
Arriving at the Jail the husband and
wife were closely questioned, but both
stoutly denied they had quarreled and the
ahootlng grew out of it. Mrs. Taylor added
all the arts of a handsome woman in her
pleading, and to good purpose, for the po
licemen are no match for the other sex,
be It with or without color. She was al
lowed to go home with her husband and
promised to let guns alone.
That Helps Cease.
A clerk In a clothing store In southern
New Hampshire had an amusing habit of
using, on sll sorts of occasions, the ex.
presslon, "That helps some." If a custo
ner came tn and found a suit of clothes
of the right pattern, even though the price
was too high for him to think of buying,
the clerk would utter the consoling words,
"That helps some." If the clothes were
cheap enough, but were several sises too
large or too small, still he would remark,
"That helpa Some."
One day a lady canie into the hi ore and
asked to be allowed to see an assortment
ef neckties. The polite clerk spread out
an array ot those goods for her Inspection,
and while she was making her selection he
noticed that she looked exceedingly snd end
tearful. The clerk ventured some common
place remark, which led the woman to ex
plain that her burden was a ery heavy
en; that she waa left with but little money
and with several small children to support.
"My husband." ah said at lsst. "haa

A. S. Ritchie paid a visit to South Omaha
to settle up the buxiness connected with the
verture he made In connection with Pat
Crowe. It is understood that Ritchie put
up the cash to start Crowe in the billiard
hall and pool business. To all appearances
Mr. Ritchie's confidence in the financial
ability of Pat has taken a slump. It is
said that in addition to the cost of the pool
room venture Ritchie is In on the deal to
the extent of nearly liOOO. Since Crowe
has been operating In South Omaha he has
not made any paymenU ou the advance
which was made to him. Mr. Ritchie de

In exchange for the right-of-way through

will contain a specific clause demanding
such a provision. It la thought possible to

PROFESSIONAL MEN SUFFER
Dr. D. A. rest Folate Oat 'One Phase
of the San Francisco
Horror.
Dr. D. A. Foot of this city hss re
turned from San Francisco, where he went
Trom Los Angeles after the earthquake.
Dr. Foote had been visiting for about a
month in Los Angeles, and when the news
ef the earthquake reached him he went
to Ssn Francisco and offered his services
to the president of the Board of Health,
in old friend. He received word that there
were plenty of doctors, as only one-fifth
of the populstion still remains In Snn
Francisco.
"The professional men all had their
offices burned out and In many cases their
homes, and many of these will need help,"
said the doctor. "Something should be
done by the professlensl men of the coun
try to help these. They are In need of
money, and the professional men should
rally to their assistance. I hope to find
a new location in Nebraska for two or
three, of these. The people are putting
up a bold front, but it is hard on them,
for the city Is still shaking. I walked all
over the town. It is a strange sight o
see -the society women of the city cook
ing in the streets In fireplaces Improvised
from brick from the fallen chimneys, it
will be a hard struggle for these peepl
to again rebuild the city, but I have no
doubt it will b done."
