A Canine Fire Extinguishcr.

Chicago Tribune.
An unusual incident was witnessed re-
Gently on an Illinois Central suburban
train. A well dressed man entered the
smoking car with a handsome bull terrier
at his heels. Neither man nor dog at
tracted attention, and the man took
seat, the dog crouching at his feet. A
passenger at the other end of the car
drew a cigar from his pocket, put it in
his mouth. lit a match and held it care
lessly in his hand waiting for it to burn
into bright blaze. just as the man
was raising it to his cigar the dog saw
the match, ran like a streah down the
car, sprang at the match, and catching
it in his mouth extinguished it in an in
slant. A roar of laughter greeted the
exploit, and the surprise Of the smoker
NAV be imagined. The dog COntontedly
trotted back to his masters feet and sat
down az though he had done very mer-
itorious act Then the passengers began
experimenting. Some one lit parIor
match and threw it into the air; the dog
sprang into the air and caught it before
it fell, Matches alighted and thrown on
the floor were extinguished in an instant
by the dog with his mouth and fore
paws. Then somebody, whose instincts
were trife brutal threw a cigar stul
with brilliant coal of fire on the end OF
the floor. The dog sprang on it, and al
though finding it tougher job than {
match, worried it with mouth and paw:
till it was extinguished.
Light piece of paper and sec wha
he does?" remarked the dogs owner
getting a secure grip on the animals col
lar. A Tribune reporter took piece o
copy" paper, crumpled it into ball
and Tit it. When it was ablazo he threw
it on the floor of the car. The dog ha(
been restrained with difficulty during thu
operation, and, being released, made {
spring and came down on thepaper will
all four paws and nose in a bunch, eN
tinguishing it instantly.
"What kind of dog have you:
asked the reporter Of the owner.
''Well, he's a bull-terrier, about . year
old. | think all bull-terriers have nat
ural antipathy to fire and will try to pu
it out. Iuse this dog as a watchdog
and have not trained him at all bcyon

Paper for Resisting Fire and Damn

Paper for Resisting Fire and Damp.
Scientific Exchange.
For making paper capable of resisting
fire and damp, Hell w. HERE proposes
to add to the pulp during the process of
grinding in the rag engine solutions of
certain salts which, by mutual decompo-
sition, form insoluble compounds. The
solution which is added first contains zinc
sulphate or chloride, or calcium chic lie,
or acetate, whereupon tallow, soap, glue,
and alum are added. After having been
thoroughly mixed the mess is formed in
to paper, which, however, Eefore being
dried is once more passed through a bath
of the same or similar composition to
the solution used for mixing with the
pulp in the rag engine, and ultimately
imprgenated with q solution of catechu.

taking aboard the citizens of Jackson
Vile large number came down from

While making brief stay in Miner coun-

The territory of Dakota is of vast extent,
being three times as large as the State Of
New York and four times as large as Ohio.

any State or Territory in the Union.
with the exception, perhaps, of Texas. The
greater part of the territory is rolling prai-

ing of large extent, and preserving relative
level ~ compared with each other. Almost
the entire territory is of unsurpassed fertility.
The top soil is black loan two feet deep,
while beneath il is sub-soil four feet deep.
This dark, rich soil produces so abundantly
that for years to come no fertilizer or dress
ing Of any kind will be needed. No forests
have to be cleared, for there are no trees ex-
cspt along the margin of the rivers. no lodges
or rocks of any extent occupy the land. and it
only awaits the breaking pillow of the husband
man to yield at once of its great abundance.
Although the staple product of the territory
is wheat, il being Of the hardest, plumpest,
moet valuable grade, yet barley, fax, rye
oats, buckwheat and corn are successfully
raised; bu, the latter can hardly be consid.
