The exercise was exhilerating of course. and everything went along smoothly until they struck one of those crossings on Center street that has a hump on it. the inclination to leave their seats was very pronounced, and although no bones were broken, a demoralized con dition of alTairs.with skinned shins was the result.

Clark registered an indignant denial regarding the story about his dog, which was circulated some days ago. Mr. Clark has always been careful about leaving his dog run at large, although those who were neighbors to him, say that tho animal is not at all vicious and that the children wero fond of playing with it. The report regarding the viciousness of Mr. Clark's dog is, according to those who are acquainted with it, wholly unfounded. It is a proper caper for people to keep their dogs inside of their own premises and then these occurances will not be forthcoming. We understand there are other dogs in the samo locality whero Mr. Clark lives that are considered a nuisance by the neighborhood. Keep your dogs at home.
