A Canine Detective.

One often hears the expression that such
a one is 'mean enough to steal the PEN
MES from dead darkey's eyes, but even
that forcible type Of extreme meanness was
paralleled, if not exceeded, in Paris lately
by young thief, whose evil deeds met with
swift and appropriate retribution the other
day. lie had organized simple style of
theft, which consisted in making acquaint-
ance with the blind beggars who have their
allotted stations in various parts of Paris, in
cultvating, by means of bones and scraps
of meat, the friendship of their dogs, and
then abstracting the sons which compass
sionate passersby would drop into the dish,
which the intelligent poodle, the invariable
companion of the professional blind beggar
of Paris, is trained to hold in his teeth. A
blind man, who has his station under a
porte cochere on the Rue de Rivoli, has a
very large and intelligent dog, and became
the object of this young rascaPs attentions,
as the location is a good one and the sup
plies usually large. So he fed and fondled
the dog for some days, ard then, one day
when the dish appeared to be unusually
full, he attempted to take possession of it.
But, on the contrary, the poodle took pos
session of him; he seized him by the arm
and hun >ron with so much energy and per-
severance that the thief shrieked Justify for
assistance. Up came the police, and the
miserable rascal was conveyed in a badly
bitten state TO the station house, almost
frightened to death, and declaring that the
dog must have been mad, so that fears of
hydrophobia are added to the legal punish
ment for his misdeeds.

A Novel Scene in Paris-HOw Par
Isian Officials EndcavOrcd 10 Get
the Better of Falling Snow.

We have been indulging, writes Lucy
Hooper from Paris to the Philadelphia
Press, in the usual cold weather and snow
storm Of the season, ''good seasonable
weather. ms somebody called it the other
day in my hearing, and wish we had some
unreasonable weather in its place, for the
municipal authorities of Paris, potent
though they be, have been completely baf-
fed and set at naught by the forces of Old
Father Winter. Down came the snow in
a soft, pitiless, unccasing shower, turning
the housetops into slopes of whiteness,
powdering the blackened facade of the Tuil-
cries, yelling the statues of the Place de in
Concorde in spotless vesture, and making
their yellow marble faces look all the sal
lower by the contrast. Six inches of snow
in land where snow storms are scarce is
| a quantity to be amazed at. But the au-
thorities, in horror at the idea of dirty
streets, set about their work of cleaning
up in right valiant fashion Six hundred
carts, each drawn by two sturdy horses,
and accompanied by squad of laborers.
set out to polish up things generally, and
to sweep the offending snow-covering from
| off the face of the earth. But all the might
| of even Partisan officials proved of no avail
when arrayed against the elements them
| selves. In vain did the army of laborers
| shovel and dig and sweep. In vain did the
heavily-ladea carts go down in long pro-
cessions to discharge their cargoes into the
| swollen Seine, and then return for a fresh
| load. The snow got the better of them in
| good transatlantic fashion. First it snew,
and then it blew, and then it friz, and at
last it thew. The delicate white icing
which had made Paris look like huge
birthday cake became transformed into
| streams that for consistency and dinginess
and sickness resembled liquid chocolate
The papers chronicled with sorrow that one
| hundred and eighty horses slipped and fell
in various parts of Paris during the night.
And during the daytime Paris, to the hor-
ror Of all good Parisians, was actually dirty
horribly, uncomiortably dirty, sloppy and
slushy and muddy enough to make a home
sick New Yorker still sadder by reminding
him of the aspect of his own dear city du-
ring a February thaw.

How English Paupers are Buried.

How English Paupers are buried.
1t is pretty generally known that paupers
do not have particularly jolly time in life,
and that in death their bodies are "ratted
over the stones;" but it has been left to the
parish of Walton, England, to deal with
their remains in peculiarly wholesale man
ner. An inspector under the burial act,
who has been looking into the matter, re-
ports that there are l04 graves in the bury
ing ground of that parish, and that no few
er than 1000 corpses have been buried in
them, being an average of 81 to grave.
The lowest number of bodies in one grave
was s, and the highest o.. There certain
ly is an argument for cremation in these
facts. But the Pail Mall Gazette is seri-
ously satrical, perhaps, when it says that
however revolving these details appear at
first sight, the poor are so accustomed to
be indecenty huddled together during their
lifetime that it is, perhaps, only consistent

cency when they are dead.

Bye. p.
The wintry gusts blow Will and shrlll.
A cloak OF snow envelopes each hill
Ceased is the music OF the rlll
That blthely sung
A summer idyl, sweet and low,
The reeds among.
The autumn leaves that glowed and cleaned,
As bright as childish hopes that seemed,
Or widest JOY OF the redeemed,
Are duh and sere
And hid beneath the chilling snow
So wan and drear.
No more the robins evening song
In mournful cadences prolong,
But pipes the minstrel wind along
The trackless plain
And means and creaks with sullen grief,
The tickle vane.
The days slow, lIstless race Is run,
Sinks in the west the hazy sun
To seek repose on cloud-beds dun;
Down madly sweep
The churlish shades Of night and DER
The hamlet creep
Enwrapt In snow the pine trees stand,
Like spectres from the spirit land
Or else some strangely solemn band
OF sorcererS boar;
Moaning their lamentations weird
They mutter DER.
Upon the panes the frost has breathed,
There shapes fantastic has he wreathed,
Mimic castles-warriors sheathed
In glistening mail,
Ger which the streaming freight throws
A ruddy vail.
The ghostly huntSman's wild hallOo
Sounds down the wlde-mouthed chimney llue
Then scampers he away with hue
or Daflled spite,
And wakes the watchful house-dog'5 bark
With sudden fright.
Grim silence rules without again,
Save that upon the window pane
Beats the ominous, frozen rain,
That seeks the ground
TO mark fair Summers burlal-pace
With many mound.
Lo! now, what dirge breaks on the ear:
Deep notes Of woe as round bier.
Within the chamber one may hear
Pale mourners greve
For one passed to the courts of Death,
Beyond reprieve.
IT'S mldnight's hour. Again they rise,
Thosessoemn masses to the skies,
Then sink to murmurs, stiled cries
OF smothered woe,
Akin TO demon curses hurled
Up from below.
Shrek shrek, yc winds Bow bow the
head
Ye pines! In death upon his bed
The Year is stretched; the conQuerors tread
Is sounding near
His call for entrance at the gate
Is loud and clear.
Strange quiet now ! Death claims his own
stranger monarch fills the throne;
Wild Joy from airy trumpets blown
Proclams him king:
IL DeUms sung by chorus grand
To heaven ring.
