lChAmpion Bloodhound.l constitutJng tba
pack is more desirable thar large size of
any individual. In color they may vary
greatly-from black and tan to white,
through mixed colors of all sorts. Nose
and speed and endurance they must have,
and the structural points most certain to
give those qualities nave been cultivated
at the expense of all others.
1t is now about $50 years since the first
pack of foIhounds, with huntsman and
whippers-in on horseback, was established
In Dorsetshire in England. In this country
there were packs in Virginia and the south
many years ago, but in the northern
country they have been established during
the last twenty years or so, and now there
are many packs. affording their owners
and their friends many days OF exciting
and valuable sport. The barrier is a dwarf
used. as his name indicates. in hare
or rabbit hunting. In all but size he Is
very like the foxhound. 1t is probable,
however. that the ordinary rabbit dog of
this country is a mongrel not very closely
related to the true barrier.
The beagle is a very small and delicate
little hound, standing about twelve or
fourteen inches high, although sometimes
not higher than nine inches. Their tongues
are musical and their noses excellent.
They are patient and persevering, and NJ
they must be followed when at work by
men on foot their speed Is not great or i'm
portant. In color they are generally black.
white and tan or black and white.
The dachshund Is a dog bred for use in
the field or forests in Germany. He is,
though slow, very certain in scent and per-
formance. In England and this country
he Is kept, IL at all, as a companion, and
his intelligence and cleanliness make him
agood one. He is long in body and short
of leg, with long ears and a face something
like a bloodhound.
The greyhound, the large, smooth coated
dog with which we are all familiar, makes
an excellent companion, being kind, affec-
tionate and intelligent. For work or sport
he is nowadays only usedin coursing trials.
To win in these great speed and great cour-
age are needed, and these qualities are pos
sessed only by dogs of high breeding.
Ths deerhound Is one of the Oldest breeds
OF dogs known. The breed was almost
permitted to become extinct, but owing to
the great care exercised by a few owners
the breed was cultivated, and now there
are many kennels devoted to the raising
and breeding of these noble dogs. Al a
companion he is chiefly desirable for his
grand size, and his defect is desire to chase
any moving object or pick up small dogs.
He has great strength and is a swift run
ner. In the west he Is becoming n favorite.
and is used In the hunting OF all large
game; and he is useful to shepherds whose
sheep need protection rather than to be
prevented from strHying.

No more shocking affair has come to
light recently than the row at II wake in
Rondout, n. Y. A number Of people had
assembled at the home Of a family named
DoOley on Pierpont street. Pipes and
cigars were smoked and the growler was
freely worked. Near midnight some OF
the party became hilarious and a free fight
ensued in which two sons of the dead man
took a prominent part. The coffin was up
set and the corpse rolled on the floor. For
Il time this quieted the r~uction; but after
the remains were picked up and replaced
in the coffin the men came 10 blows again
and the fight was renewed with increased
yigor. 1t didn't stop till every one wa

as the chief failing that brought dupes to
her feet. She met n young business man
OF New York city who looked coldly on
her charms and declined to contribute to
their adornment.
This unexpected rebuff reused in her a
mad, passionate longing for the purity she
had lost, for the respectability she had
never known. She wanted to be this man's
wife, to win his respect and esteem, and
the more he soorned her the darker grew
her desperate mood. All her pretty ways
and dainty arts failed, and despair claimed
her for its own. Humbled, crazed, hope,
less, she dressed her shapcly form In costly
robes, deCkcd her neck and wrists with
diamonds, locked the door to her apart

Half a dozen years g Ebert +. Hale
and Lottie Middleton, Of Newman, Cal,
were lovers. They quarreled, as lovers
sometimes do, and parted. Soon Hale
married, and Miss Middleton became the
wife OF Perry Mcdowell. The two fumi-
lies lived not far apart and the members
met frequently, although they were not
on the best OF terms. Remembering his
old affection for another, Mrs. Hale was
not exactly angelic in her treatment Of

Two brothers. As soon rs they had reoov-
cred from the first shock they ran ont, but
failed to find any trace of the assassin.
Daylight brought a clew in the shape Of
footprints. The murderer wore No. 5 high
heeled boots; 50 did Hale. The murderer
who made the tracks vas weaker in his
left than in his right leg and favored the
feebler member; the same conditions OBJ
tanned with Hale. So suspicion rested on
him, and when he was found wandering
about in an aimless manner officers took
him into custody. To add to the somber-
ness of the situation, on the day that he
was arrested Mrs, Hale prsmaturely be-
came a mother.
Another home made desolate by insanity
is that Of Jesse Higbee, a prosperous resi-
dent Of Meade county. Ky. A few weeks
ago he had an afTectionate wife and four
bright children. Now the little ones are
beneath the sod, and Mr.. Julia Higbee
raves behind the bars OF a lunstic asylum.
During her husbands absence the woman
broOded over certain suspicious until the
lark cloud Of madness settled down upon
her mind. Then calling her little ones
about her she gave them food in which
arsenic had been mixed. She watched
their agonies with indifference. and smiled
as one by one they breathed their last.
She smiled in the face OF her horror stricken
husband, and smiled again when placed on
trial for her life. The jury acquitted her
on the ground of insanity, and her mental
failure being thus established the law con
signed her TO the living tomb provided for
those whose existence has ceased to nave

found refuge in the House of the Good

In one case at least a good hard cold has
proved a blessing instead of a nuisance.
Miss Elizabeth Cation, OF Constantine,
Mich, lost her voice seven years ago
through an attack Of scarlet fever, and
until lately was not able to speak above
a whisper. Recently she went to her broth
er's in Kalkaska TO stay a few days and
caught cold, which brought on a fit OF
sneezing. She sneezed three hours, and
when the attack ended was SO weak
that she could scarcely stand, but was
overjoyed TO find that she had entirely re-
covered the use OF her voice. The doctors
arc unable to accoun for 1t, but those who
have heard her talk since her return, and
she has talked all the time in joy over the
