DIFPEY's DoG.-Almost everybody 10 town,
says a Virginia City tNeY.) paper, has heard
of Jimmy Difey's dog Duplex: He had q
thousand tricks, but none that were vain. :
Catching tall and all that sort, of business at
forded, him much pleasure. Make but slogle
motion, as though throwing something into the
air, and Duplex was all attention. His nose
was aloft 10 O moment, aud his ears were
!, vibrating '.'sx ways for Sunday. while bis
J, tail was extraordinarily ipaexible. q" W heo ne
had fallen into this attitude, the majority OF
external things were not needed by-hIm uotll
be became convinced that he was not going 10
hear anything drop. Not only 10 this, but also
10 mauy other. respects, the dog was study.
We'll, Duplex is dead now, Last Sunday even
ing, the. Chinese residents of this place ten
dered their god Gum. boots 40 ovation, 10
which 6re-crackers and bombs largely FREEDOM
mated.
Jimmy Diffey went down to Chinatown to
see this blow out, Duplex following at bis heels.
Hardly had the Joss house been reached when
q, Chinese worshiper of the cross-eyed god
above mentioned threw high Into the air one
of those wicked. spherical, wcker-covered
bombs, thing which no other nation except
the Chinese would ever have thought of 10.
venting. Poor Duplex saw the ball ascend, and
rushed forth from his masters side, confident
that as a trained dog he was expected to do bis
duty. The ball had no. yet done ascending
when Duplex was underneath it, squatted upon
his launches, nose 10 the air, ears vibrating,
aud tail laying out along the ground as stiff as
q small crowbar. To vain did Mr.. Difey shout
and call, "Here, Duplex You, Duplex
Come here Alb, you y. Duplex knew toe
we'll what under similar circumstances had al
ways been expected of him---knew his duty.
Asthe Kissing sphere reached its greatest alti-
!. tnde,. paused che fractional part Of a second
and then began its descent, the slightest bit OF
tremor imaginable was to be observed 10 the
extreme point of the tail of the alert animal ;
then, as the ball descended nearer and nearer,
he was firm as rock-he was accurately meas.
uriog the distance. At the exact and critical
moment, Duplex darted from the ground,
straight as an arrow from the bow, his rigid,
we'll formed tail pointing directly to the
ground, and his mouth open to its widest ca.
pacity. a..
Down between the distended jaws Of the dog
fell the bomb Drop it, you rascal !" shouted
Mr. D!ffey, drop it, drop it, sir u But Du
plex did not drop it. A heavy, dull explosion
was heard--a sort of thud--and Duplex, where
was he The greater part of him lay where
the explosio6 occurred, but one Of bis eyes was
sent across the street through the wi ndow Of
Hop Lock, the Chinese doctor, the end of bis
pose fell 10 the boudoir Of Miss 500 Chow, and
