DOG SLAUGHTER A La MoDE.-Dogs,
having no appreciation of the numbers of
their tribe needed aud desired by man,
multiply IN such in an inconyenieut and
excessive fashion, that it becomes nee
essary every year to slaughter large mum
bers of them. Shooting, clubbing, and
drowning have hitherto been the most
approved fashion of removing the surplus
dog population. The Women's Branch
of the Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty to Animals in Philadelphia have
effected a very humaniziug reform in this
matter. The care of ownerless dogs cap
tnred in the city of Brotherly Love has
been intrusted 10 these ladies', who have
established a Dog Shelter, where animals
likely 10 be claimed BY their owners are
fed aad cared for, and where supernume
rary and worthless animals are compelled
TO close their term Of existence. This
latter process is performed after the most
approved and fashionable method Of
French suicides. The condemned brutes
are gently introduced into an air tight
chamber, twelve feet long, FIVE feet wide,
and three feet deep, after which the doors
are closed, and carbOnic acid gas is
pumped into the compartment, killing
the inmates In about two minutes, with
out causing them pain. The carcasses
are then removed in a cart. 1t is i'm
possible to tell whether the dogs like this
method of killing better than the more
common roads to death; but is certain
ly less brutalizng on the attendants, aud
is equally effective in reducing the num-
Der Of ours, mongrels, whelps. and other
worthless members of the canine family

business, cause the expenses must go on

"How do you manage about travel
ing2"
1--WE have two agents. One goes on
ahead two weeks and makes arrangements
for us; gets out the advertisements and
sees the posters put up and that sort Of
think. He engages rooms, hires the lot
for the tent, and writes back telling Us
how we are 10 come and by what roads.
Then the other agent goes --SAead day,
and be sees that everything is ready.for
us and in good order, and, if its necessary,
takes out the license. When We come
along at night he meets US out OF town
and shows US the lot, and then we go to
work.

temperate life"
"a circus man wouldn't be worth

A Problem.

4 Chinaman died, leaving his proper
ty by viii to his three sons as follows
To the eldest son, one half thereof; to
the second son, one third thereof; to the
youngest son one ninth thereof. When
the property was examined it was found
TO consist Of nothing more or less than
seventeen elephants, and it puzzled the
three heirs how to divide the property
according to the terms of the will. FL
nally they applied to a wise neighbor for
advice. The neighDor took an elephant
of his Own aud drove it into the herd
saying, suppose your father left
eighteen instead of seventeen elephants"
then speaking to the eldest, ''take your
half" The eldest took nine elephants
aud moved on. Then to the second
stake your third )" the second son took
six elephants and went off. The wise
man then spoke to the youngest-'take
your ninth the youngest. son took two
elephants and went off, and the wise
man went home with his own elephant
Query-Wa as the property divided &C
cording to the terms of the will?

When Harry White was held a pris.
oner by the rebe's, the Democratic
party in the State Senate took advan-
tage of the fact to prolong its organ
izatiou for weeks, for no other purpose
than the qualification Of sordid hope
of being ableto wrest share of the
officers of that body from the Repub.
licans, to whom, as the majority party,
they were justly entitled. just as soon
as Gen. White could resign his seat as
a Senator, an election was called, the
vacancy filed by a Republican, and
the majority we're able to proceed 10
business. If the Democracy had been
controlled by maguanimous or houora-
BILE feelings, the Senate could have or
ganized the day it met But in all
this our opponents are deficient. so
that the State is most likely to be dis
graced again by a repetition ola strug-
gle similar to that when General
White was held a prisoner by the
rebels. The death of Senator COnnell
has created a vacancy which must be
filled by special election. Ii is the
duty of the Speaker of the Senate to
call that election. Why does he hes
titate now and quibble as to his right
or duty to issue his warrant for such
special electionY Simply becarse Mr..
Connell's death leaves the Senate tie,
and the hope is cherished of forcing
the majority into sharing the officers
of that body. There is nothing to sub
serve but this gree1-there is no pos.
sibility of vindicating a principle
thereby, and in order thus 10 pander
to the corruption of defeated faction
a shameful disgrace is in preparation
for the people, and thousands of 6ol
lars of public money will be wasted
We want fair men aud taxpayers tC
ponder these facts. There is no good
reason why the special election to fill
the vacancy in the Fourth Senatorial
district should not at once be called
1t is demanded by justice and a due
regard for the success of legislation
and those who refuse a compliance
standing on a shifting and weak tech
nicality, will be held responsible for Q
reckless disregard of a sworn duty
These are facts which the people will
not forget.--State Journal.
