We are the fortunate possessor Cd. a
very interesting terrier dog and his name
is Snap. An aimiable and ~well-condi-
toned dogas his friends cantestify when
be has the street to himself, andno can
inc sight nor scent "comes between the
wind and his nobility" A useful dog
too, for, as the streetcOmmissioners have
shamefully neglected their duty ON his
route, Snap has appointed himself uni
versal scavenger, and in pursuit Of rats,
keeps the filthy cutters open. We have
never seen d~isagreeable duty performed
with more alacrity, and we consider our
dog a model to neglectful officials.
But, with these shining virtues, Snap
has his faults, and Mardi- Gras they
brought him to grief. He has played
Lord paramount on his beat SO long that
he has grown insufferably conceited.
He will tackle any stray dog from bull
dog tepoodle, but Mardi- Grls one tack
led him, and we came very near writing
d" hic :jacet" over, his bones. Snap had
risen from his sleep gloomy and sad on
that fateful morning. We knew what
allied him, though some foolish people
said it was the garbage in the cutters he
had been cleaning, and which disagreed
with him. But We understood that he
expected to be appointed Rex of the
C~aTnivalin OpelOusas, and join the Rev
ellers, and ne invitation had come.
The majestic stalk of that dgniied
terrier down street was beautiful to see,
He was lost, in his offended thoughts,
when a big spotted cur steppedup Now

conflict was ayelp and a bark, a general

streets of Opelousas have ever seen wal

THE "INsn AND THE "OUTs."-Tn view
