DOGS AND CATS THERE, TOO There was a different atmosphere among the poultry at the poultry show on Turkey day. Conspicuously was this noticeable among the turk- eys. Until 10:30 the turkeys were quite meek. At that hour the big gobbler of L. P. Stone of Lexington began to strut. That was well past the hour when any turkey destined to be baked for Thanksgiving dinner must be killed. So this big black gobbler felt sure of a lease of life for another year Strut? Why, he fairly polished the wmaple floor with the tips of his wings as he scraped and rasped them along. Yes, so far from fearing human beings and their dreaded axes he even sallied at them as they gathered around to look him over. He scraped the floor, pouted and rushed at the bars of the cage until he made the wire screen sing. Pups at the Show. The tiniest and youngest pups in the pet stock department of the show are five handsome little Boston bulls with their mother “Quetn, exhibited by Frank A. Wellman. The little fellows are a scant four weeks old and spend most of their time snoozing with their thick little noses buried in the soft sides of their mother. Every one has the same beautiful markings of the nose that characterize the mother, and everyone has a screw tail. They are attracting much attention, especially among the children who visit the show.

MINERS ARE RETICENT London, Nov. 30.—The govern-| ment’s decision to assume control of | all the coal mines in South Wales on | December 1, under the defence of the realm act was announced too late last night to enable commentators as yet | the gauge its probable effect.

A majority of the | South Wales leaders are now in Lon- don for a conference regarding the threatened strike, They will meet this | morning to consider the situation. Mine owners are reticent. A dis- | patch from Cardiff says the news| came to the coal interests there as a bomb shock. _The executive committee of the South Wales Miners' federation to- day adopted a resolution reiterating | the demand of the federation for a| 15 per cent increase in wages and demurring to government control of the collieries unless all the coal fields of Great Britain are brought under such control.
