DOGS AND INSOMNIA.
To the Editor of the Telegraph: The
subjoined article, which I hope for the
beDkdlt of endangered humanity and for
the vindication of dognnlty, you will
give place In your columns. This scribe
would make no war upon men's beat
friend—the dog. He is useful In III*
day and generation, and that ho is not
a min Is no fault of his. He is useful
in country nnd In town, but It It as a
denl**n of the cltlep that he waxes
into greatest Importance, and when hi»
benign influence is felt, in tlhn't be keeps
from within the corporate limits the
numerous preponderance of tho num

It is. very true, there ain’t many var
mints In the cities Just now, but there
might be were It non, being "forc-
tvorned they have been forearmed" by
the procurement of n full complement
of these trusty guardians of our truck.
Did yoy, fMttle reader, ever stop to
consider whnt would bo your awful
case were it not for the army of dogs
that day by day and night by night
are kept on picket line*? Didst ever
think of the uncertainty of Ilf#*, to
which the absence of the noble dog

ANOTHER ROAD OUT.
Chicago, July' 2.—The Chicago and

list of roads on which traffic bM basil
abandoned. The 5 o’clock mall train left
the station at Wells and Kinzie streets
this afternoon about on time, but the
fast passenger train tqr Milwaukee, due
to leave at 8 o'clock this evening, has
been abandoned and ft is announced
that no further attempt* will be made
for a while to run trains. This state cf
affairs has been feared by the officers
of the road for eeveraFdayi, owing to
the growing disinclination on the part
of the Brotherhood engineers and Arc-
men to work with non-union men.
The Pan Handle passenger, due to
leave here at 8:30 o. m., was derailed
in the upper ConAl street yards tonight.
The train, going at a fair rate of speed,
went through an open switch «.nd twb
cars were thrown to the edgo of the
river bank. No passengers were in
jured. The road is completely blocked
at this point by the wreck. The marine

which may jiave the way for much

Germany, since her spat with Eng

has been feeling much more sympa
