SUICIDE OF A DoG.-Old Rover, a massive
bull dog, the property of the late Henry Bare,
but who has claimed no home in particular,
since his masters death, land the removal of the
family to the country, met with a violent death
last Saturday evening. He was on the railroad
track, at the bridge, west end OF the city, as
the freight train was comingin. He moved be-
fore it until he got to the centre of the bridge,
and then stopped, and deliberately faced the
engine, which struck him and cut his body in
twain. 1t had the appearance ofdeliberate and
well chosen suicide. If the train had not kill
ed him, the fall from the bridge would, Death
was certain. Rover had been rather melan-
choly and mopish for several months. He de-
clined changing city life for country air, and
was living about among the neighbors of his
former MASTER Although kindly treated, he
never regarded any place his home, and was
generally going from house to house. We pre-
sumo he became tired Of the troubles of this
world and determined to end them, by'one de-
cisive act, and succeeded.
