TRAINED DOGS HELP

parts of the country. It Is deep-chest-
ed. short-haired, possesses u world of

.lust recently the dog played nn Im-
portant part In the capture of two es-
caped convicts from Hie reformatory,
I,uml said, lie Indicated that dogs of
tills type nre to he Issued to guards
on All'lltratc Island, the United States
“Devil's Isle," according to present
plans.
Dog Captures Two.
"On my command to search," said
l.lind, “tiie dog led our parly to a
heavy undergrowth where the escaped
men were hidden. 1 said 'charge, and
the dog ran toward the eltnnp. The
two men surrendered before the dog
reached the • undergrowth. I then
stopped the animal by shouting halt.
The dog assigned to Lund Is one of
two kept at the reformatory. It has
been 111 his cure since a year ago.
when he went to Morristown, N. J., to
train with the animal.
“The dog Is my constant companion,"
l.und explained, "and obeys only my
commands. These dogs nre trained
that way. They will obey their keep-
er's orders to tlio letter, but will not
heed n strunger.”
If anyone, either man or woman, ap-
proaches the prison guard, the dog Im-
mediately places himself between his
master and the oncoming party. Lund
said the dogs nre not vicious nnd will
not attack without reason. If the
quarry shows tight, then the dogs fight.
How They Are Trained.
“They are trained not to attack a
mao armed with a club." Lund said.
"They circle the man at a safe dis-
tance until their master arrives."
The dogs are trained to disarm a
man by clamping their Jaws on the
wrist of the gun hand.
“A clever trick mastered by most of
these animals," said Lund, "Is their
method of combat when the quarry
shows fight. My dog throws the full
weight of Ills body ngalnst the man's
leg closest to him and then grabs the
other leg. This usually upsets the
mn n."
Lund says the dogs are bred In
Switzerland and are used by the signal
corps of the Swiss army. Albert Mueh-
ler, a Swiss, who trained the dogs of
Mussolini's police, Is In charge of the
training field in New Jersey.
"I never whip my dog," Lund said.
“If he disobeys a command, I throw
a small chain, which I always carry
In niy pocket, at him, and he will come
nnd place his nose on my knee—his
way of saying that hp Is sorry. Then
I command him to retrieve the chain."

thtrty-four-yenr-old unmarried worker,
attempted to commit suicide In order
to create a job for tils best friend, a
married man with three children.
Huupt may live; Ills friend will get
work.
Both men worked In a local brewery.
When the friend of Ilnupt was dis-
charged for reasons of economy Haupt
vainly Implored the manager to fire
him in order to create a vacancy.
Ilnupt thereupon fired a revolver Into
his head. He Is seriously Injured and
probably will lose an eye.
Ilis self-sacrifice Induced the man-
agement of the brewery to reinstate
the discharged man. while Innsbruck
labor unions will find suitable employ-
ment for Ilnupt if he recovers.

South African Sees
With Borrowed Eyes
London.—After being blind for
years, Mrs. Diiphine Muir, South
African novelist, sees today with
the eyes of other women.
She underwent the corneal graft
operation at tiie hands of 11 Welsh
specialist, Dr. Tudor Thomas. In
each case, the necessary graft was
taken from the eyes of other wom-
en.
Doctor Thomas lias nn impressive
record with this type of operation.
He restored the sight of a man
blind 2o years, n woman sightless
for 30 years and Inst June a wom-
an blind all tier life.
Mrs. Muir wns disappointed In
one sense—she wanted tiie graft to
come from a man's eye because “I
have always wanted to sec through
tiie eye of a mnn."
She promised to dedlcnte her next
book to Doctor Thomas.

Records obtained by the large seis-

at Pasadena, Calif., yield new facts
about earthquakes which m*y cause
scientists to develop new theories
about the Interior of the enrth. Most
seismographs Indicate only the vibra-
tory motions of the earth at a given
point, but the Pasadena Instrument
also takea the earth's pulse by meas-
uring the relative movements of two
different points. It responds only to-
stretches or compressions and Indi-
rectly to vibratory movement*.
