"HE ELECTRICIAN.
Dog Whoso Intelligence Ig
simply marvelous.
Many people in Brighton, England,
are interested just now in watching the
clever work of "Strip, the Electrician,"
who, after laying down many miles'
- length of copper wire, for the purpose
of electric lighting, in London, lias
lately come to Brighton with the same
olrject. Lest Sir. Edison should not att
, .once recognize the name of his "collab
. orzutricc," says the London Graphic, wo
will -explain at once that "Strip" is a
clever little fox terrier, the property of
"Slessrs. Crompton, the electrical engi
neers, and thai she is under the special
protection of that company's night
watchman.
'Stripes method of working is as fol
lows: The workmen lay down in the de
sired position a short length of the
: stout iron pipe which is to shelter a cor
responding length of the copper wire,
- along which the electric current will
ultimately pass. The iron pipe having
been fixed, Strip is called, has the end
of the copper wire fastened to her col
lar, and, at the workman's sign, goes in
at one end of the pipe "and comes out
at the other end." says an intelligent
but too hasty reader. Not so. however.
The other end of the iron pipe has a bar
across it. over which the copper wire
must be strained to keep it taut. Strip,
having entered the pipe with the wire
fastened to her collar, presents herself
at the other end to the workman await
ing her there, who thrusts his hand un
der the bar, unfastens Strip's collar,
and draws it and the wire out.
Strip, when she feels her collar gone,
turns round, retraces her steps, comes
out again at the same end she went in
at, and lies down on the workmen's
coats until she is wanted again. During
the recent bitter cold weather Strip
sometimes longed to shirk, and showed

STRIP, THE ELECTRICIAN
a moment's hesitation when told to en
ter the dark, cold iron pipe; but the
kindness the true English workingman
is ever ready to show to animals used
always to provide a bone or two every
morning to be kept handy for these
moments of reluctance in Strip"s work
ing1 day. With one of these tempting
morsels the gallant little worker was
then encouraged and rewarded, and all
went well. The illustration is from a
photograph taken at Brighton by Lieut.
CoL F. K. Loyd, near whose house Strip
has lately been working.
What a Blind Alan Can Do.
An example of marvelous industry
and power to overcome adverse circum
stances is given by Max Mayer, who
was born blind in Berlin twenty-eight
years ago. He received his first instruc
tion from a teacher Of the blind and
later attended the Sophien-Real gymna
sium, a scientific college in Berlin. He
was always among the best students in
the college and passed a brilliant final
- examination. He entered the Univer
sity of Berlin a few years ago to study
mathematics, mechanics and philosophy .
He took the degree of Ph. D. a few
weeks ago, preparing a dissertation
upon the differential calculus which ex
cited the admiration of his professors.
Tiiere are still some men on earth
who keep the devil on the keen jump
every minute.

THE DALLES.
Wasco County, ... Oregon,
The Gate City of the Inland Empire is situated at the head
of navigation on the Middle Columbia, and is a thriving, pros
perous city.
ITS TERRITORY.
It is the supply city for an extensive and rich agricultural
and grazing country, its trade reaching as far south as Summer
Lake, a distance of over two hundred miles.
The Largest Wool Market.
The rich grazing country along the eastern slope of the Cas
cades furnishes pasture for thousands of sheep, the wool from
which finds market here.
The Dalles is the largest original wool shipping point in
America, about 5,000,000 pounds being shipped last year.
ITS PRODUCTS.
The salmon fisheries are the finest on the Columbia, yielding
this year a revenue of thousands of dollars, which will be more
than doubled in the near future.
The products of the beautiful Klickitat valley find market
here, and the country south and east has this year filled the
warehouses, and all available storage places to overflowing with
their products.
ITS WEALTH.
It is the richest city of its size on the coast and its money is
scattered over and is being used to develop more farming country
than is tributary to any other city in Eastern Oregon.
Its situation is unsurpassed. Its climate delightful. Its pos
sibilities incalculable. Its resources unlimited. And on these
jorner stones she stands.
