JAPANESE PUG DOGS.
a Famous Family Now Dwelling
in San Francisco.
DefyinE All Precedent by Living The
Pretty Pets of Mrs. KennIson and
the Misses stone Described
IN a Few Words

japanese pugs rarely thrive in this
country. The few born on American
shores generally die very soon after
ward. There is one family. Of this breed
of dogs, however. in this city evidently
destined to defy all precedents, says the
San Francisco Chronicle.
The grcat-grandparcnts of this fam
ily were Romeo and Juliet, brought
from Japan Il few years ago. Romeo is
still living. and is about ten years old.
He is the property Of Mrs. ]. Collin, OF
Taylor street, near Bush.
Japan, the son of Romeo and Juliet,
belongs 10 Judge Gunnison, of 1904 Van
Ness avenue. Judge Gunnison a year
since brought from Japan another pug.
Yum Yum Kel1ko. NilllSO, Tama,
Chinii and Yum Yum H. were the fam
lily Of Japan and Yum Yum |. OF these
all died except Tama, thus it would
seem sustaining the theory that Jap
anese purs cannot live in this country.
With TaTna's little doggics came a
change. Out Of five four lived. and
these are over a year old Tama and
her babies passed into the hands of
Misses Laura and Belle Stone, of so7
Leavenworth street. Tama,s littleofie.s
We're named on October II, lsal Miss
Laura Stsne, who is wclI-ltnown
artist, held a regular christening party
in her studio. Amid company Of assem-
bled friends the five baby pugs were
grouped upon white fur rug. 4 young
gentleman performed the ceremony Of
tying a mime card around each neck
with baby blue baby ribbon. Ashe did
so Miss Belle Stone sPrinlzled each with
cologne, emptying over all the contents
of whole bottle. The names given
Were Tori. a bird; Kcl;ko. wonderfully
beautiful; Kin, gold; Iiahna, flower,
and Amida, an endearing name of
Buddha The last persisted, not of the
grandeur Of his name, but Of conges-
tion OF the lungs, to which Japanese
pugs are peculiarly liable. 1t was this
fell disease which carried off his inter
estinC relations.
At present the Misses Stone have
charge Of Tama, or. Sweetheart, and her
daughters, Kin and Hanna. Mrs. Ken

none Of the outward and visible signs
Of the clergyman. Rather, he rcScni-
