Rsllails Tribune
a very touching incident occurred last
evening at the residence Of Mr.. William
TuTnbull, whose little daughter, Maud,
has been seriously III with typhoid fever
for some time. Mr., Turnbull had 3 tine
blooded Newfoundland dog, and warm
attachment existed between the dog and
child, and In the little girls Tambles and
play the faithful dog was her constant
companion, ever ready 70 protect her rom
all harm. Since Maud's sickness the dog
has refused to eat and wandered around
in strange way as II looking Tor its lit
tie mistress. Last night the dog was taken
to tho bedside OF the little sufferer, and its
10y at seeing her was pnbounded. The
faithful anlmd walked around and around
the bed, occasionally stopping TO LOOK in
the face OF its playmate, and rub itB Bhag'
py head against tho little white hand that
rested on the outside Of the covering, and
in several other ways evipCed its Joy OF
again beholding its little mistress, The
time came at last when the dog had 70
leave the room, which at first itEelused to
do, but finally was induced to come down
stairs, and il was then offered food which
it again refused, and would not DO Consolled
by any one. The dog wandered around IN
some OF the old familiar haunta where
happy hours had been spent in play with
It's little mattress, and finally laid down al
the bottom OF the stairs leading to the
Child's bedroom, whining In very pitt
ful manner, and In almost human ways
showing its grief for the little sufferer, Nc
more attention was paid to the dog for an
hour or two. At last some one called to
the dog, and when 1t did not move an ex'
animation was made and the poor brute
was found to be dead. The intelligent an
imal's grief at the parting from its kind
friend had caused its death. The little
girl Is better to-day and hopes are enter

At Pensacola last Monday the case OF
the Pensacola City Company VS.. EpGraim
Pleasure was again tried before Judge
Tate and jury in the County Court. The
case involved the right OF possession 10
some fifteen acres of land and improve
ments on Bayou Texar, in the suburbs of
the city. Inc plaintiff contended that the
defendant leased the premises from the
its tenant, anG, therefore, was
estopped from denying it's right
to recover. The defendant showed
that he accepted the lease from tho COM
pany after obtaining possession and being
asked to sign the same by one Brainard,
an agent of the company. That since
1870 he has paid rent to the heirs of De
Rivas and never paid any to the company.
That in the year 1872 he disclaimed tenan-
cy to the plaintiff, giving notice thereof
10 W. c. Cooke, the company's agent.
Many new and interesting questions OF
law were raised and discussed through
the progress OF the trial, which lasted
some eight hours. After twenty minutes
the jury rendered verdict for the de-
PENDANT.

The Work OF a Mad Dog.

From he TalLaAassee (Flu.J TaIldhGSseqn.
The Barlneau and Hopkins neighbor-
hood, about nine miles west OF Tallahassee,
was recently made lively by the appear
ance of a genuine mad dog, a calamity
heretofore unheard Of in Florida. Who
the dog belonged to or where he came
from is unknown; quite likely he came
from Georgia. The animal first appeared
about shutdown on the premises OF Mr.
Conyers Barineau, biting and swapping
at everything in his line of march. He
succeeded in biting an OK,
hog, and two geese. From here he went
TO Mr.. Eli RusselPs place, and bit six of
his hogs. Next, Frank MoOre's place was
visited and one hog bitten; then Mr.. w.
ii. Aliens, where he bit one cow, and
proceeded to Wallace Williams place,
where he bit two calves. All night long
the neghborhOod was kept In an upr0ar,
dogs barking and bowling, hogs squeal-
ing, geese cackling, calves Dleating, and
cows believing. The people could not
imagine what terrible calamity had
befalen the country; the night was too
dark TO see the cause OF the furore.
On Mr.. Goes place ne attacked and
killed hog. Mr.. Coe sent over TO Mr..
Hopkins, got his two dogs and gave chase,
not knowing what it was. The Hopkins
dogs soon overlook and caught the mad
dog and held him until Hepry Hopkins
came, and putting his foot on the animals
neck roped him. AS soon as he was let up
il was discovered that the dog was mad.
He at once attacked the gentlemen and
they shot and killed him.
The animals bitten soon died or be-
came seized with hydrophobia, and had
TO be killed. Mr.. w. IL. Hopkins, our
informant, was in the city yesterday, and
says that all the animals bitten are now
dead except one hog. and one OF his dogs
that caught the mad dog soon showed
symptoms OF hydrophObia and was killed.
He is watching the other closely, and
win Kill it IL the least symptoms appear.
Hydrophobia is entirely new thing In
Florida.

Not being satisfied with this kindness, he
though he would see what he could find;
so he first went through trunk and two
valises which were in the room in
which he slept; he took from the trunk
postage stamps, which he had con-
cealed in his hat lining, and some postal
cards. He went into another room, rum
rumaged through clothespress, and took
gold necklace which belonged to Miss
Maude. On it was small gold ring. Not
liking the way the boy acted, some of
the family went in, found he had
