Vanquished by a Dog.

Norman Simmons, Camden's first
dog-catcher, says the Philadelphia Rec
ord, is a negro who stands nearly
feet high and is as black as raven.
Business got so brisk the latter end of
last week that Simmons hired a little
colored man named Henry Brown to
help him. On their rounds of South
Camden on Saturday they ran across
big curly dog of uncertain breed TAX
ing the morning sun on IL Kaighn ave-
nue. doorstep
'Dah's anudcr doilah" exclaimed
Simmons, his mouth stretching out in
the direction of his ears; ''go fur i'm,
Brown"
''Look a heah, Simmons" said the
assistant, .'my net amt big 'nuff foh
dat dawg."
'.Yas, It's; you'se feard OBJ dat dawg,
Brown, pears Ter me-"
By this time a big crowd had collect
ed and matters were assuming thrill
ing aspect. The big curly dog slept
peacefully on.
Simmons, you'se got ter ketch dat
dog" said Brown at length.
''WhO's dc boss OBJ dis racket" asked
Simmons. with great dignity. II want
yer to know Use de ketcher and you Sc
de 'sistant! You got ter ketch dat dog.
foil dah's anuder dollah in i'm, / tell
yer"
Brown went gingerly forward ar
ranging his net for a good throw. He
got within ten feet of the steps. The
dog started up suddenly with low
growl and made spring for Brown.
The unhappy darkey was not quick
enough to escape and he went flying
through the scattering crowd minus
the seat of his trousers. Simmons
dropped his net and fled precipitately
in another direction, and the big curly
dog settled leisurely down on Browns
net. A policeman was summoned, the
owner of the dog was called, and the
paraphernalia of war were restored to
Simmons, who knocked off for the day
with the remark: ''Sistans is no good
no how"
