into the cellar, when the barking of his
dog attracted his attention, He went
back quickly, but saw no one;
but the intelligent animal sprang
upon the counter and began to
scratch above the till. On opening it,
while the dog continued to sniff and
smell about it, growing at times, it was
found empty. The dog seemed to strike
the scent, and, following it to the door
paused to invite his master to come on.
He did so, and after going a short dis
tance, as If upon the scent of hare, the
animal led up to two individuals and be-
gan to bark loudly. "These must be the
thieves" thoug ght the merchant. He
went toward them, calling upon a man
near by to help him, and this individual
happened to be an agent Of police in cit
izen's dress. Seeing that they were pur-
sued the two men fled. The dog kept
swapping at their heels, and, thanks to his
aid, one of them was caught. The other
disappeared at the Rue Montorgueil.
",Seek," cried the master, urging on the
dog, and the animal once more caught up
the scent. While the master, assisted by q
person called in for the minute, held the
thief, the agent followed the dog and
came up to him barking at the door of a
house. The agent went upstairs, guided
by the dog, and found the second thief
hidden behind the door of room on the
second story. A portion of the money
taken from the till was found upon the
man thus curiously caught by the aid of
an intelligent dog.-PGris Cor. N. Y.

"A MARRIAGE was recently sOlemniZed
by telegraph, and now the news of a
wedding ceremony performed in barn
yard comes from New Hampshire. A
young lady living at Flatbrookville, in
that State, fell in love with one of her
nelgaoors, young man, and he recipro-
Gated the passion. Desiring to get mar
ried, they notified the Squire, and he con.
sented to "splice" them. Shortly after
ne arrival of the Squire the mother of
tne expectant bride, who had been absent
rom nome, returned and discovered the
situation. She objected with piece of
board, and proceeded to belabor the
parties concerned. The groom went one
way, the Squire escaped in another di.
rection, and the blushing bride fled to the
garret. Later in the day the lovers were
seen together, and the result of the stolen
Interview was that early the next morning
they presented themselves before the
Squire in his barn-yard. He asked them
to go to the house, but they declined, stat
ing that the BRIDES mother was on the
war-path and in hot pursuit of the flying
pair. Without further delay the twain
were made one, the only witnesses to the
ceremony being the wondering cattle that
surrounded them, silently chewing their
cuds.
