As Dos ) Fighting Qualities.

Cooley's boy has liver-colored dog
which he has upon several occasions
made the subject Of very interesting
and instructive experiments. Origi.
nally, the dogs tail curled up over its
back but Cooley's boy was prejudiced
in favor of tails that hung down be-
hind so, after amputating the dogs
tail with hatcbet, he spent whole
morning trying to graft a skate-strap
on the stump. IL was not courageous
dog. 1t would bark all night when
nobody wes about, but if a tramp came
near the house in the daytime The dog
would put the skate-strap between his
legs and go in and lie down behind
the stove. Cooley's boys had read
in an old newspaper that a timid dog
could be made brave by filling his
meat with gunpowder and red pepper.
Accordingly he put a quarter of
pound of pepper and little powder in
some meat, rolled it up in kind of
ball, and tossed it to the dog. The dog
swallowed it as quick as flash.
For few moments the animal seem
ed contented. But presently he gave
n little start, and then paused and
looked around to see if anything had
happened. Then he gave a jump and
began to assume very solemn appear
ance. All of a sudden he uttered a
sharp howl and began to circulate
around the garden. He went faster
and faster, and Cooley is willing to
swear to at least four hundred revolu-
tions minute. Over the gooseberry
bushes, through the asparagus bed,
across the fences, among the beam
poles he flew with fury, swapping at
Cooley as he passed him, soaring the
chickens and setting them to cackling,
and smashing the vegetables into ruin.
The louder Cooley called to him to
stop the faster he went, and at last
Cooley got his gun and tried TO shoot
him. He shot fifteen times and blew
holes into the smoke-hous door, killed
four chickens and put halfa pound of
quailshot into his Durham COW but
the dog still revolved and went so fast
that he looked like single streak of
dog reaching all the way around the
garden.
At last the animal ran against the
pump, and, being switched off his
course, he dashed through the kitchen
door, knocked down the stove -pipo,
whirled into the dining-room, across
The table, smashing two dollars worth
of crockery, burst through the open
door into the parlor, and brought up
against the mirror, which he shivered
to atoms. Then he fell on the Brussels
carpet, had spasms around on the floor
for an hour or two, and finally expired
with his hind legs in the CRATE and his
head on forty-dollar rug, which was
covered with beef and red pepper.
They buried him at the roots of the
Isabella grapevine, and Cooley's boy,
after recovering from the thrashing
that his father gave him with fence
paling, finally came to the conclusion
that as matter of practical fact red
pepper viii not make dog anxious for
war.
