to attend the examination OF Mother Jerome's
school, who, twenty five years ago, was one OF the
pioneers Of Catholic education in st. Peters, and
who Is now on duty there devOtedly attentive to
the children as she was to their parents as chill

cises interesting to all the relatives OF the chill
dren, Included pretty play called Lost in Fairy

the Interpolation OF songs, piano playing. &c. At
the conclusion OF the entertainments Father Far

The steamer Indiana, OF the American steam

THE DOG CRUSADE.

The Pound Ycsterday-A Spectator in
Dogs and What Became Of His Stock
In Tradc-A Curious Incident.
The threats OF Mr.. Bergh. the Nominations Of
Recorder Hackett and the deliberations of grand
jures seem to have as yet but little e1ect upon
the small boys and others who have, during the
past week, made trade OF stealing dogs and
selling them at fifty cents head to the grim Mar
riott who reigns supreme over that sink OF cruelty
known as the Dog Pound. Yesterday the chase
as lively ever, and hundreds or little four
legged wretches were bagged by the two-legged
wretches who pursued them.
The new phase OF the matter seems to be in the
number OF men VINO have found it worth their
while to embark in the business. A singular
incident happened in this connection yester-
day. A person named James Hudson went
round the city with an immense farmers wagon,
TWENTY-FIVE cents Q head. This sort of canine
sSos. age appeared 70 pay hm ior IN very
quantity OF all kind OF dogs, from the blackguard
of the ash barrel to the pet OF the drawing room.
When bought this hard-hearted man thrust the
dogs into his wagon. which was closed on the top
with open side Stats, like country wagons gene
rally By two O'Clock he mad over 100 dogs cooped
up In this manner, and no doubt all OF them in
very fair way to get suocated by their close con-
fnement. Hudson finally arrived with his wagon
Market Armory. Here he was accosted BY mem
Der OF MI. Bergh's society, who had him arrested
Tor cruelty TO animals. In charge OF o blue.
coat he wended his way to the station house. leav-
ing his wagon where 1t was. Hudson had no
sooner departed than crowd OF small boys sur
rounded the wagon and began watching the dogs
inside. Some one suggested to open the top. No
sooner said than done. Some person pulled up
the top and 1t was curious TO witness the quick
ness with which the enclosed dogs made them
selves scarce, all the more so that the small boys
set up howl OF 10y and dertston In less than
three minutes there wasn't dog left in the
wagon. They disappeared In all directions
like q flash, anu no doubt when the
humane Hudson returned to take charge
OF his pr0teges he was very much surprised
to find his pains aud his speculative energies and
his money all gone for nothing
Captain Marriott was presented with less num-
Der OF heads at fifty cents than usual yesterday.
The business seems to be languishng.

At the meeting OF the Board OF Education yester

OF the public, the discussion was avoided. Wilson
G. Hunt sent in communication, in which was
enclosed q City bond for $1,000. Mr.. Hunt pro-
poses that the interest this bond shall devoted
to the use OF presentation OF prize to boy or
girl in the Public schools OF the city for excellence
in some branch OF education, which was not men,

will pay for the prize Tor the year 1874 Com num-
