A Dog on the II. lice Force.
'ittsbur0h TeLe0rnDh.

He is common-looking medium-sized,
jet-black dog. Officer Mitchell came in
possession of him one bleak winter night
last season, when the dog was shivering on
the street in starving condition. He was
taken home and provided for, and ever
since he has proved valuable addition to
the police force by assisting the officer in
the discharge Of his duties. He follows
the officer increasingly on all his rounds,
and when another officer raps for assistance
the dog makes haste with all speed to the
spot and commences to bark. Should any
Of the officers have occasion to give chase
after any one the dog marks out the man,
and catching him by the pantaloons, de-
tains him by worrying until the arrival of
the officers A short time ago the officers
succeeded in capturing prisoner that,
without the assistance of the dog, would
have escaped. The dog can discern intox-
icated persons from others, and should he
meet with such a person in his perambu-
lations he keeps up howl until an officer
arrives. The epolice always make it point
to 60 to the spot where the dog is barking,
and they are never fooled. The most sim
gular feature Of the dogs life is that he
will not accompany Officer Mitchell in
daylight when dressed in citizens clothes.
He sleeps in daytime, and is always on
duty with the officer, who prizes him
highly.

SCHOOL DAY AGAIN.

Yesterday brought around the day again
for the opening Of schools Far different
though was the day from the old style
school opening so far az the weather
was concerned. Instead o. the cool bra
cling air that we have been in the habit Of
Witnessing at the opening Of the fall sea-
Aon, it was dry and warm. But to speak
more specially Of the schools, it would be
well to devote few lines to the scholars.
At an early hour the the streets gave many
expressions that it was school day. From
the lisping boy and girl to the girl just
budding into womanhood, and the youth
showing signs Of an incipient mustache,
as Dryden says "whistling for want Of
thought" all appeared upon this scene and
wended their way casually along. The
vacation has been a long one, II which
they have had opportunities far exercise,
and that rest SO much desired after long
study. @ ta a'.&+
