!ripperies Of civilization and the useless
adnTnment Of clothes.
Mr.. Wilson sent Nugget, the dog, TO
board with q dog fancier In q canine
boarding house, and then went to a
clothing store and exchanged his cow
boys rig for new clothes of the latest
cut. The next day he called on Nugget,
but Nugget would have none Of him.
The master whistled TO the dog, petted
him, and made every effort 10 make him
understand that affection was not
changed, even though clothes had been.
The dog looked up at the silk hat which
had taken the place Of the broad
bfimmed slonch 10 which he had been
accustomed, shifted at the dude.like
cane, and surveyed the light trousers
from several points Of view, and then
walked off 10 the corner Of the room, lay
down, and gave long, mournful howl.
Mr.. Wilson tried to coax him out Of tho
corner, but could not. Nugget would
look up at him with knowing expires.
sion in his eye, and occasionally give
the feebIest little wag TO the end of his
tail, but he could not be induced 70 re.
consider his evident determination not
TO recognize his master In any such
ridiculous attire as that.
bIr. Wilson vent 70 his hotel, donned
bis cowboy rig again, and then returned
70 Nuggets quarters. The instant che
dog saw him be was almost Wild with
Joy, and his delight at seeing his master
again clothed as he thought man ought
70 be was almost unbounded.

Special to the REvIEw.l

SEATTLE, March 3O.--Last evening at 7
O'Clock, Geo. Folsom, whose rea. name is
A. Cortes, and who until recently had been
employed in the Merchants dining saloon,
opening oysters, went on walk with
fellow boarder, John Hughes, who until
fortnight ago was employed as pantryman
on steamer. Having passed out of Madi-
son street they entered the brush by the
roadside, and while seated on log, Cortes
called his companions attention to some
thing at distance, and while his head was
turned, deliberately made an attempt to
leut Hughes throat. The wound inhiqed
was about eight inches long and deep
enough to sever the wind pipe. Hughes
attempted to grapple with his asssilant but
the latter fed. Hughes, though weakened
by loss Of blood, managed to reach Grace
hospital where he was cared fer. The po-
lice were notified and at about o'clock
p. M. Cortss was arrested and lodged in
Jail. Hughes had some sixty dollars on
his person, and the assault was made evil
IDENTIFY with the intention of robbery. 1t Is
somewhat doubtful II the wounded man
will recover to testify to Cartes making the
assault. but the evidence against him is
VERY strong.
