Dogs ON Errands of Mercy.

The suggestion of the Weir Zsituag is
that race of dogs should be attached
to armies in their campaigns, or at least
to the corps Of ambulance service at
tending upon them, and that after every
battle the dogs in question should be
sent forth to range over the field Of, bat
tie in search of those wretched wounded
soldiers who have not been killed out
right, but who have hidden themselves
in some refuge, and after figuring in the
list of missing men too often perish
miserably before any relief can find them
out. 1t seems that the idea of employ
ing dogs in this way is by no means a
new one, but was brought forward two
years ago at Dresden, where some dogs,
qualified for this purpose, were shown in
an exhibition. Since that time expert
ments have been made by means Of
crossing the st. Bernard with other
races with view to obtaining the most
suitable breed, and a very satisfactory
result iseaid to have been arrived at by
the German fanciers.' The precise mode
of employing the animals on their benefi-
cent mission is described in the Vienna
paper, which explains that the dog is
furnished with leather collar and
plate, having marked upon it his num-
Der and the division of the army to
which he is attached, and the Geneva
cross To his collar is suspended a
small leathern bag, containg q pencil
and slip of paper, and even little Ian
tern in case Of his being sent out at
night. The wounded man, upon being
found, opens the bag and writes his
name if he can upon the paper, together
with the nature Of his injuries, and on
the return of the animal to the animal
assistance ia sent under its guidance tC

among the unmarried mothers thar
among the married; an almost sure sign
of foul play. A Pail Mall Gazette cor
respondent states that the French cham
bers will soon be asked to consider a
philanthropic scheme for the revival Of
turning boxes in the founding hospitals.
A turning box is movable contrivance
into which mother, desirous of abandon
ing her child to public charity, may place
the infant without being asked any ques-
tions. She rings a bell, the box revolves,
and the child disappears forever, so far
as she is concerned. These boxes were in
use in most French towns until about
twenty years ago, when movement was
started to abolish them on moral grounds;
but now reaction has set in under the
form of panic produced by the increas-
ing number of infanticides. Mothers
too poor or too heartless to bring up
their offspring must have facilities for
consigning them to the state, or it is
found that they leave them to die.

Cruelties of a Cuban Bull Fight.

The Augusta Ca, Chronicle prints the
subjoined extract from private letter,
written by former resident of that city,
who is now in Cuba, to relatives in
Augusta: "Mr. Springer called for me

the consuPs carriage, and insisted that l
should drive with them to the large am
phitheater known as Polar Qua Men

assure you it ismy last time. At4 o'clock
a horseman, well mounted, rode into the
arena, saluted the governor, who tossed
him the keys to open the gates, after
which eight or ten teasers' with red
flags marched into the ring, followed by
two men on horseback, with long spears.
1t was not long before the bull himself,
already greatly infuriated, cavorted be-
fore us, dashing about from side to side
after the fiery ensigns, and plunging at
the nearest horseman. The story is one
long and sickening, so in summing up
the affair l have only to say that one
man was killed. didn't care fig for
the man nor his relations and friends,
for such gladiators deserve no pity; my
sympathies were with the horses and
bulls. Two steeds were killed by the
first and third bull, and one so lacerated
by the fifth animal that it had to be
driven from the ring, almost torn open.

After the horsemen were through with
worrying them, two angling Spaniards,
on foot, with barbed reeds, gayly decor
ated and brightly polished, would dance
around the enraged bull, stick him in the
tender parts of the shoulders, inRicting
horrible agony into the poor beasts ex.
hausted body. But the diabolical sport
did not end until another relay of friends
would dance around and thrust into the
quivering, dying animal sharp darts
loaded with torpedo at the end, which
would explode directly under the skin
causing the most excruciating agony.
The poor bulls. now unable to fend
themselves against every form Of attack

wickedness employ, would dash them.

oring to wreck their miserable existenccs

ring, looking piteously into the faces oi
the multitudes above them, appealing
in their mute misery to the stony-hearted
spectators. 1t was simply terrible. BY
the time the bloody sport was over Iwal

day was very warm, drops of cold per

THURSDAY, June 20.-The house re-
The Two-Headed Eagle.

The origin of the device of the eagle
on national and royal banners may be
traced to the very early times. 1t was
the ensign of the ancient kings of Persia
and Babylon. The Romans adopted
many other figures on their camp stand
ards; but Marius (B. G. 1922 made the
eagle alone the ensign of the legions,
and confined the other figures to the
cohorts. From the Romans the French
under the empire adopted the eagle.
The emperors of the Western Roman
empire used black eagle; those of the
east a golden one. The sign of the
golden eagle met with in taverns is in
allusion to the emperors of the east.
Since the time of the Romans almost
every state that has assumed the desig-
nation of an empire has taken the eagle
for its ensign-Austria, Prussia, Russia,
Poland and France all took the eagle.
The two-headed eagle signifies double
empire. The emperors of Austria, who
claim to be considered the successors of
Caesars of Rome, use the double-headed
eagle, which is the eagle of the eastern
emperors with that of the western, typi-
flying the "Holy Roman Empire" of
which the emperors of Germany (now
merged in the house of Austria) consid-
cred themselves as the representatives.
Charlemagne was the first to use it, for
when he became master of the whole of
the German Empire, he added the second
head to the eagle, A. ID. S02, to denote
that the emperors of Rome and Germany
were united in him. AS it is among
birds the king, and being the emblem OF
a noble nature from its strength of wing,
and eye and courage, and also of con-
scious strength and innate power, the
eagle has been universally preferred as
the continental emblem of sovereignty.
Of the different eagles of heraldry the
black eagle is considered the most noble,
when blazoned on a golden
shiold

Damascus has been ruined by the open
ing of the Suex canal. The overland
trade both Oriental and European, by
caravan with Bagdad and the Persian
gulf has been diverted to the waterway.
The competitor of India and China in
silk and sesame seed through tine canal
has sensibly affected the value OF these
products; the late discovery of alazarine
has rendered valueless the cultivation of
madder for export; and the diversion of
large numbers of Moslem pilgrims from
all parts of the east, who had hitherto
made Damascus their. point of arrival
and departure, with much profit to the
city, to the sea route by the canal, has
contributed in no email degree to its
downward progress House rent has
declined so and 80 per cent, and large
numbers of empty shops and houses in
every part Of the city indicate the gem
eral decline. The steets are filled with
beggars, both Moslem and Christian, and
that, too, in . city where eighteen
months ago beggar was rarity. The
more elevated districts Of Lebanon,
which formerly contributed the princi.
pal portion Of nendicants during winter
months, have this year sent double the
number to swell tho amount Of local
