A gmt'eme'i living in Wmtvutosa relates
to tit to div the foilowint! incident, fur the
truth of which he rouobes: I no day lust
week a man went to a saloon, ns was his
daily custom, In drink, and meet b.ion com
panions, remained witb them till late at
nip lit, when bo started to go home. Over
come by the liquor be bad drank, tbe in
laid down oil tbe railroad track' and went
to sleep. A faithful dog. who bad followed f
tbe man, stood and watched over him, iiati.1
Ibe whistle of a locomotive iu tbe distance
showed that a freight train waa approach
ing. Tb9doK, fully awRrn of the danger
imminent to bis master, tried to aronso tbe
drunken man, and toro bis clatbes badly in
the attempt. Unable to awake the sleeper,
tbe doj took the man by tbe shoulder and
airly drugged him from tku track just as
the train came on. Che mnu was saved,
but the poor dog whoThad so faithfully pro
tected the master be loved, was struck by
the cow-catcher and smashed to pieces.
When the man recovered senses it was found
that bis Bi sh was bitten in several places by
the dog, in the strong efforts inadu by tbe
animal to save bis life. "The man the next
day gathered up the pieces of tbe faithful
animal and buried them. He was so fully
Irnpietsed by tbe remarkably narrow escape;
fronf deatk that be bas resolved not to get
drunk again.

Stiam Fruity at Parker's Lanpiso.
There ia some .treuliie nhout a bill now
pendiog in tbe Senate granting a charter
for a steam ferry at Parker's Latidiog, at
the ssmn place where there is now a char
tered lorry. Tbe Clsrion Democrat a iys
tbe present company claim that having at
great expense, made roads, bought beats,
put up wires, tc, they should out be iuter
le'ed witb. Tbey also claim to have autho
rity to ran a steam ferry, and propose do
ing so. On tbe otbsr band, it is assorted
that tbe present ferry company bus forfeited
its charter, by charging higher rates than,
authorized by law, and that they cannot, or
do net accommodate ibe public. Many
letters have been received on both sides ol
tbe question. It ia to be hoped that tbe
agitation ot the subject will eoahle the
public to be accommodated iu tbe best man
ner possible. A churtei lor a bridge, at tbe
same point, is asked by a company, and It
will no doubt bo granted.
