HIS DEATH AND BURIAL


ALTHOUGH EothIng bat dog" Jack was by nc
means unknown to fame, and kind friends will
not be wanting to really mourn his loss. Hisname
and presence have been familiar for years 70 the
bench and bar Of this District, and he was always
a welcome visitor in thO various court-rooms at
the City Hall. Jack probably had the best Legal
mind Of any dog in Washington. In equity
p!saIings he Tas never at fault, and with great
-ignity he maintained the right. With Greenlea
he was perfectly at home, and ever gave sOnViIc
ing proof Of high character by the associations he
kept. All Law touching the domicil he had at hii
tongues end, and no canine intruder ever ven.
turSd an unfriendly visit upon his estate more
than once. II he once made an attachmentit was
not forfeited by him, and If by accident he met
with loss Of any kind, his skill in repleVin was
sure to restore It. In his masters once Jack has
heard Q thousand and one distressful revelation s
Of domestic infeliclty, preparatory to suits for
divorce, and while sometimes tears actually
gllstened in his eyes, he would Wag his tail for
Joy when he thought Of the perfect peace and
beauty surrounding bis own home.
Through q short sickness he was most tenderly
uursed, but he died, and was buried last Satur-
day in the beautiful garden he loved to watch,
and under trees and vines Of everlasting green.
Yesterday his grave was covered with white
roses, and many reeollections OF his kindness and
sagacity were recalled by members Of the bar
who happened to call on Colonel Thompson dur
ing the afternoon. a little slab Will be placed at
the head Of Jacks grave with this inscription

A Ride With a Mad Dog.

The Wilmington (Del) Commercial
states that Mr.. Howard Worth, residing
near Landenberg, was, one day recently,
riding along the public road, near
Toughkenamon, when he overlook very
fine specimen of a dog, that appeared to
be lost. After little coaxing he got the
dog into the wagon with him, and, be-
coming reconciled to such treatment, he
even laid his head upon Mr.. Worth's lap
and received many kind words and friend
ly pats upon the head from his new
friend. Thus matters were going when
Mr.. Worth reached Avondale, where he
learned that Mr.. Quarts, of that place,
was the owner of the dog. Mr.. Worth
regretted that he had found the owner.
but he gave him to Mr.. Quarls, and pro-
ceeded on his way homeward. About
two hours afterward the dog began to act
queer, and Mr.. Quarls fearing all was not
right, tied him, but soon q At Of the IA.
bies came on, and the dog, breaking loose,
attacked some dogs that were In the yard,
and then ran to attack Mr.. Quarts, who
only escaped oy springing into tree
close at hand, where he was compelled
to stay until an opportunity offered for
him gun, with which he shot
the rabid animal. The dog, when Mr..
Worth found him, had been on q round
and had done much injury, but when
found appeared to be entirely innocent.
Mr.. Worth, as may be imagined, is very
for his narrow escape, and
thinks he viii, be more careful In the fu.
ture how he takes up strange dogs.
