EXPLOIT OF ST. BERNARD DOG
From the Virginia City (Nevada) Enterprise.
DR. Berthier, County Physician. has at the
County Hospital, situated about a mile and
a half east of this city, q dog of the St. Der
nard breed. This dog is not yet fully grown
but it would seem he has the instincts of his
breed strong within him. Last Saturday
night, about s O'Clock. he rushed about
through the hospital, acting in strange and
excited Kramer. It soon became evident
that he wanted some one to follow him. Dir.
Berthier ordered old t'Uncle Jimmy" who
used to make his headquarters at the stao
ton house, but who is now "man Friday"
at the hospital, to go with the dog and see
what the trouble might be. Finding that be
had made himself understood, and that I'M
Gle Jimmy was prepared to follow, the dog
led the way across the country, through the
snow, in the direction of the city. st the

"Major,'' descended into rSvine. Plunging
through the deep snow filling the bottom of
the ravine, the dog went to big drift and

Jimmy, who was wading toward the spot
as fast as his short LEGS would carry him.
Marveling greatly, Jimmy plowed his way
down the ravlne, and reaching the spot
where Major was at work. saw before him
woman. He at first tried to beat the dog
away, thinking-as he is rather cross st
nights about the hospltal-that he was hurts

that the dog was careful to lay bold on moth

was doing his best to drag her out Of the
drift. Jimmy managed to lift the woman
who he found was still alive-cuts of the
hole, but was unable to move her from the
spot, she being SO near chilled to death as to
be unable TO stand. Assistance was called
from the hospital, and the doctor turned
out with all his nurses, and all the GONZALES

to the hospital, and after she was housed
the doctor and nurses worked over her
some hours before she could be placed in
bed. The husband of the woman is in the
hospital, and it appears that she left the city
late in the evening to visit him. A bottle OF
whisky That was found by her 8 ide in the
snow drift accounts for her being lost In The
snow. DIR. Berthier says that, had she re-

she wonld have persisted. The next day,
when she came to her senses, she was so
much ashamed of the affair that she would
not see her husband, and has since left the
hospital without going to his room, begging
that he might be told nothing of her peril.
