Death of a Fayorite Hound.

An old hunter in Mexico gave to the au-
thor of "Summerland Sketches" his expert
enCe with favorite hound, which exhibited
feelings that would honor humanity
you have no idea" said he, chow they
get used 10 you if you are alone with them
for weeks together; the worst Of it is that it
comes so awful hard on fellow TO lose a
creature Of that kind.
II brought fine Scotch deerhou1d in Bal
timore in &c. had him nearly eight years
and tell You, sir, felt like shooting myself
when lost him. The Mexcans poisoned
him because he wouldn't let them come near
my smokehouse at night
"N0 square, straightforward poison, either,
for 1t took him whole week to die. 1t lust
went through me like knife TO hear him
whine, and perhaps ought TO have put him
out of his misery, but was thinking of all
the scrapes we had helped each other out of =
we had frozen and starved together all over
Texas and Arkansas-and | couldn't kill
him while there was ghost of a chance OF
his pulling through"
The voice Of the old rough became mar
ticulate at the recollection. He had spread
the dogs couch at the side of his own bed and
palted his shaggy coat till he lay silent and
motiOnlcss.
But late in the evening, when the logs in
the fireplace had fckered almost their last
the hound raised his head and placed it on
his masters arm, looked into his eyes and
sank back dead, like the last pressure of a
human hand a farewell mutely spoken, but
not easy To forget"

man; and an address on entomology,

excellent points. 1t certainly was an

TIE People of Peru Have Them Sat and

A man called at the Philadelphia
Inquirer office the other day with a
handful of what looked like dull red
dish golden eye-balls. They were of
various sizes. ''Do you know what
these are?n said he. You will never
guess, nor do believe there are many
persons who can tell you. They are
taken from the mummies of the Incas
of Peru. When | was stationed out

naval service, | got a whole lot of
them. The mummies were thrown up
and in some cases destroyed by seismic
commissions. There are thousands of
them about, particularly near
Arequipa. These that show you are
taken from the skulls, and are believed
to be the real eyes of the Incas, and
are respected as such. The women
wear them made up into necklaces.
scarf-pins, and other articles of jew
elry. AS a matter Of fact. however,
they are really the eyes Of the octopus
Or devil fish. They are thoroughly
dessiccated or rather mummifed, by
the air, and were put in ages ago to
take the place of the natural eyes,
which the aborigines found would not
last in that climate. In having them
set as a piece of jewelry you must be
very cautious. The workman in trim

Queen Margherita of Italy.

Queen Margherita of Italy possesses
many graces and accomplishments, and
while she is we'll versed in classic and
modern literature she is also one of
the best violoncello players OF the day.
Wishing to pay special tribute to
Italian genius, she not long ago had
published at her own expense, for the
ton of Dante's works, containing much
that has been written about the poet
with the reproduction of every picture
inspired by him. She is also an ardent
patron of the arts and Industries of her
country, and under her fostering care
the manufacture of Burano lace, once
apparently lost, was savad from extinc-
ton. Her alms-giving is munifcent
but practical, and in her religion she
is neither a bigot nor freethinker.
Her attitude toward public questions
has been SO wise and polite that she is
generally loved by the people, and the
greatest criticism made of her by her
enemies is that she does not dress in
good taste. -Harper's Weekly.

lh"r"''fer Spy'S Boston L"nr.
MIR. Edwin Booths gift of n fine residence
in New York to the Players Club" has
been warmly applauded. | am told he is
looking for n house here, SO there is a pros
poet of claiming him as a Bostonian again.
Several years ago he established himself in u
Chestnut street house, whose furnishings. ex-
quisitely beautiful in color and design, were
carefully selected by Mrs. Aldrich, the wife
of the poet. The suit of rooms, specially
designed for Mr.. Booth. were entered from an
old fashioned landing, half way up the wind
ing staircase that leads to the second story.
These rooms were full of antique furnl-
ture. many pieces of which belonged TO his
parents. II was all of the richest descrip-
ton, and the walls were hung with historic
relics, armor and old family portraits. He
slept on a narrow, quaint. colonial bedstead.
which had four posts and a tester and was
hung with dull red satin draperies. This
home was presided over by the great actors
daughter, Edwin0, who. with her husband.
Mr.. Grossmau, gave many charming recep-
tions. Az that time Mr.. Booth was a familiar
figure in our streets, but he always wore n
weary, misanthropic air. rs if the spirit of
the Prince of Denmark brooded within him.
