NONSENSE ABOUT sLoooAouNos

The Dogs Used in tho South to Catch
Prisoners Arc Only Small Foxhounds.
Bloodhounds are inseparably asso-
dated with slavery In the south. 'Un-
ole Toms Cabin" and other stories and
dramas of that character would lose
half their interest without the horror
inspiring bloodhounds. Since the war
the bloodhound has been associated
with the recapture Of escaped conviots.
These convict catching bloodhounds
are a myth. There are no such dogs In
this. section of the country. The dogs
used In trailing escaped prisoners are
very small fo1hounds, insignificant and
harmless animals.
At Pratt Mines, five miles from this
city, there are 1900 convicts leased by
the state to the Tennessee Coal, Iron
and Railroad company. To capture
those who escape the company keep a
large stock of hounds. These dogs are
small red foxhounds. A few of them
are spotted, but the majority are a
solid, dull red color. They are small,
slender limbed animals, capable Of fair
speed and endurance, and they can
without difficulty follow a trail five to
eight hours old. J.,
The dogs are kept In a large stock
ade short distance from the prison,
and never taken outside the inclosure
except when wanted to trail escaped
convicts. To get the dogs on the right
trail a coat or hat belonging to the es-
capped convict is obtained, II possible,
and held to the nose Of each dog, while
Trainer Crosswel by signs makes them
understand that it is the scent they are
expected to follow. They are then
taken to the point where the convict
made his escape from the mine or
prison, or to the place where he was
last seen. The moment they scent the
trail they recognize it and give short
yelp. Their 1eashes are then slipped
of; they are told to 60, and the chase
begins. Guards ON horses follow close
behind Trainer Crosswell, who rides .
feet horse and keeps right with the
dogs. .-i
Trainer Crosswell is proud of his
dogs. Once fairly started on a trail
they never lose it, unless thrown off tho
scent by hard rain or the convict
taking to water. They have trailed
men through the principal streets of
this city, where thousands had passed
over the trail, and finally run the fugi-
tive down. They never make mis-
take. If they are started on the right
trail they follow it to the end. When
several convicts escape together and
separate in the woods when pursued
the dogs are divided and the separate
trails all followed.
On several occasions these dogs have
done good service in trailing down
murderers and burglars. Trainer Cross
well says he can take any ordinary fox
hound when young and teach it to trail
men. 1t is entirely a matter of eduoa-
ton and not of breed.-Birmingham

A new shell, to take the place Of all
distress signals now used in marine
signaling, such as rockets and firing
of minute guns, which involve the loss
of much valuable time, has lately ap-
peared. 1t is intended that the shells
shall be distributed about a ship but
particularly kept on the bridge within
easy reach of the captain. When he
desires to give signal of Distress in
stead of losing time in loading and fir
ing cannon, or touching off rocket,
he seizes shell, pulls the cap off the
detonator, scratches the illuminate
with the rough end of the cap, and
throws the she'll overheard. In twen-
ty-five seconds there is an explosion,

1t is rumored that serious attention is
now being paid in official circles to the
project of connecting the Baltic and
Berlin by a sea-going ship canal. This
was favorite idea of DR.. Strousberg in
his later and bankrupt days, when he
cast about for some means of turning to
account his financial genius, and there
is reason to believe that even Count Won
Moltke thought the idea worth serious
