A long time ago, In New Orleans, there
was a fellow travelling around exhibiting
The Inyincible Jackass " in tent. He
had ring, surrounded By seats, and after
filing the edges OF the ring with villainous-
looking dogs OF every description he led in
sorry-looking isckass and let loose the
dogs. AS the most foremost dogs got with.
in range the jack jumped 10 the air, and
with such wonderful rapidity shot out
with all tours that verify the dogs must have
believed there was perfect shower OF
hoofs. Half the pack at once beat retreat,
and as the jack commenced another bray
even the stoutest among the balance
turned tail and LETT him master of the field.
But the iackass was not to be satisfied with
this easy victory. Around and around the
ring he galloped after the now yelping,
bowling dogs, and finally grabbed between
his teeth the stumpy tall OF a shaggy yell
iow pup, and tossed bin in the air and
against the ground till that piece of tail
gave way. The spectators, who when they
first saw the animal thought the Snowman
ought to bc arrested for cruelty to him,
now changed their minds and said he should
be bagged for using UP those dogs so un-
mercifNily.
