Teddy, a tiny Japanese poodle belonging to Miss Zoe Baker of this city, was today found clinging to a rock Just above the water in an old- aban doned well, and rescued Just as It was about to end Its long fast by giving way to the pangs of starvation. Advertisements had been published, children had been asked to search for it, and even the dogcatcher was noti fied. His cries for help, though faint at the end of five days, were heard by a group of pass ing children, who summoned a rescuer.

CITY LIGHTS ARE SHORT OK JUICE Mayor Lane Explains Why He Cut Bills of Elec tric Company. In a letter to the people of Portland, Mayor Lane yesterday' set forth his reasons for cutting down the bills pre sented by the Portland Railway. Light & Power company for city lighting for March. April and May. Mayor Lane contends that the company Is not fur nishing the amount of current called for in the contract entered into be tween the company and the city and furthermore that the candle power of each lamp is below the contract stipu lation. In hla letter Mavor Lane stated that he thought the company should be re quired to furnish the required amount of current and lamp capacity or else reduce the bias. e eaia no men to secure Information from the com pany's representatives concerning the amount of current used but that such efforts were unsuccessful and after an investigation of his own came to the conclusion that the company was not living up to its contract and therefore forfeited Its right- to the total amount of the contract price. Mayor Lfene explained hat he sent the letter to the people at this time because the present contract expired at the end of the year and a new one win have to be entered Into. He stated that for this reason the people should be informed as much as possible about the lighting proposition because It was their money that paid the bills. Although Mayor Lane has signed war rants for less than the sum asked for by the company they have not beon accepted and neither has the company made any move to enforce the collec tion of their claims against the city. Mayor Lane and the city executive board refused to pay the total amount in the belief that die bills are exces sive. It is believed that the company will take action In the matter this week and that It will be a suit filed In the state courts to force collection of the bills.
