no other buyer would vontu.e to cffer,
and which conservative cotton men say

Dog Thieves

4 Dogs have been trained to do many
useful and many amusing things. but
the most degrading instruction over
given to noble animal OF it's species
came to light early in tho week. A
great Newfoundland dog ontered O
noted store near tho Bastilc, wandered
about for some time among tho Gus
toners and finally seized n bundle con-
taining some shooting jackets with
which hc made off as fast as he could.
Some of the clerks saw him and about
q hundred Of them ran out after him.
The cry was taken up in tho street and
the "dog thief" was soon being pur-
sued by half a dozen police and hun
dreds Of boys besides the clerks. The
animal was finally run down and
marched of to the police station, and
eventually to the pound, where ho has
probably been smothercd before this.
Several shopmcncomplamcd that they
had been visited by the dog and had
suffered from his deprcdations. so that
there is no doubt that he had been
taught to steal by some Fagin Of the
ncighborhood, which is not q particu.

ane Govii Scared by a Saint.

When St. Colum Gill was in Ire.
land there lived u Pagan priest in the
county of Tyrconnell who erected a
temple of great beauty and magniii-
cence. Among other curiosities Of
art he made an altar of fino glass,
which he suporstitiously adorned with
representations of tho sun and moon
It happened that this priest was seized
with sudden distemper which took
away his senses and he was without
motion, as if he had been in swoon.
Tho devil, who had a particular re-
sentiment against the man, took ad-
vantage Of tho opportunity and, sciz-
ing him with his talons, was hurrying
tlhL away LnTouyn inc ar. St. Colum
Gill, looking up, perceived the Gend
on tho wing bearing his prey, and
when he was flying directly over him
the saint made the sign of tho cross in
tho air above his head, which so as
tonished the devil that he let go his
hold and dropped tho priest, who fell
a. az. Columns feet. This dclivcrance
was SO gratefully received by the
priest that he became convert to
