large the pack may pe they never attacK
a man, but keep up an incessant baying
that tells the pursuing guards that the
chase is ended.
The keen scent of these dogs is wonder
ful. If the ground is damp and the at
uosphere moist they can follow a trail
10 or 12 hours old. If il is dry or raining
= trail four TO seven hours old is all they
can be depended on 10 follow. Once
started on the right trail they never make
a mistake, unless the fugitive takes TO
water and follows it for great distance
In this way he may throw them off the
scent, but in no other. They will follow
q man for hours through the crowded
streets of city, into house after house,
sroas the tracks of thousands of other
nen, and never lose the original trail.
Once started on the track Of criminal
shey are a veritable Nemesis that can not
oe shaken off, Various means of getting
them started on the right track have been
sdopted IF any article of clothing worn
by the escaped convict can be found it is
held to the nose of every dog in the pack.
They are then released at the place where
ae was last seen and told to go. For
few moments they win circle about with
their noses close TO ti;s ground, and then
short, 81. .rp bark is si,nai that they
nave fouRd the sect. Ak ain they are
given the word TO 80, and in a moment
they are off at full cry, if the trail is
fresh. If the trail is cold one they
move very slowly at ftst, keeping their
heads close to the ground.
When the trail grows warm they in
crease their speed to a swinging gallop,
run with heads well up, and then give
full vent TO the cry that stirs the blood in
the veins of every true huntsman.
Where no clothing or article belonging
to the escaped prison r can be obtained
the keepers must find lis tracks if possi-
ble. If that can not be done the only
thing to do is to tai the dogs to the spot
where he escaped or was seen last, give
them the word to go, and trust to them
to find the right tail. These are the
facts about the n.,n hunting dogs of
the South. They ale small and harmless
foxhounds, carefully trained TO follow
only the trail Of men.-Chicago Herald.

An old admiral, hose long sea service
had given his LEI a decided outward
curvature, once had singular adventure
on this account with ships pet, says the
San Francisco Argonaut
The crew of the ship owned large
black spaniel, and took great pains in
teaching him to Jun lp. A man. standing
up, would put one foot against his other
knee, thus making a hole for Nep, the
dog, to make his Il p through. The dog
always jumped Trough the aperture
readily, though if Lis trainers legs hap
pened to be short it was sometimes a
rather tight squeeze.
One day the admiral came aboard from
the flagship on a visit of inspection.
Happening to walk to the forward part
of the ship, he stood there for few min
utes conversing with the officer who had
attended him.
Here he was spied by the dog. Nep
stood moment s, rveying the admirars
bowlegs Suddenly the dog made rush
at the legs and a mad leap through the
tempting gap.
In astonishment at the black tornado
that had passed b meath him, the adj
miral whirled qui y about to see what
was the cause. II dog took this action
as a signal for an "encore" and jumped
again.
Once more the admiral turned, and
again the dog jump, d. The bewildered
face of the admiral md the serious atten-
ton of Nep to VIII. t he imagined was his
business were too much for the gravity
of the bystanders, and, forgetting the re-
spect due to rank, they all roared with
laughter.
A sailor, however, had enough presence
of mind to break IN the crowd and
catch the dog by t collar. He led him
off, and as he did so Nep seemed to won
der why he did not receive the praise due
to such spirited efforts.
The excited adm ir.I got but an imper-
feet explanation Oh the affair from the
spectators, for they could hardly tell him
that his legs had been used as kind of
circus hoop by aforecastle dog. Perhaps
to his dying day the occurrence was a
mystery to him.

II. Puzzled IN. Inha..

An eminent lord chief justice who was
trying right of way case, says the Irish
Times, had before him witness --an old
farmer-who was proceeding to tell the
jury that he had "knowed the path for
60 year, and my feyther tould / as he
heered my grandfather zay-"
"Stopi" said the judge, "we can't have
any hearsay evidence herel"
"Notl" exclaimed Farmer Giles, "then
how dost know who thy feyther was 'cept
by hearsay?"
After the laughter had subsidized the
judge said: in courts Of law we can
only be guided with what you have seen
with your eyes, and nothing more or less.
"Oh, that be blowed for a talei" re-
piled the farmer, Il ha' got bile ON
the back of my neck, and never seed
'un, but be prepared to swear that he's
there, dang uni"
This second triumph on the part of the
witness let in a torrent of hearsay evil
dence about the footpath which obtained
weight with the jury, albeit the judge
told them it was not testimony OF any
value, and the farmers party won.

the other day on the same boat with a
man and his wife from some town in
New Jersey. She appeared to have heard
and read all about it, but he hadn't. She
had considerable sentiment in her COM
position, but he had none.
well, you've got down here, and now
what of it?" he growled as they walked
along the wharf.
why, John, we came TO see this won-

where's the wonderful? They've

stones and set that figure on top. What's

But it's grand, John-everybody says

II had no idea IL was so grand and

veyed the figure.
"I should think it orter bel" he
growled as he felt in his pockets. Its
cost us 90 cents to git down here and
back, and they orter give heap of heroic
for that"
John, do you notice the pose of the

"No, don'tl There amt any pose to
1t. 1t just stands up there a-doin'

Some P1ayine card Lore.

Says an old gambler: l have often
been asked what the figures on playing
cards indicate or how the figures came to
be first used. My grandfather was, like
myself, an all around sport, and have
heard him tell that they originally indi-
Gated the different classes of people in the
kingdom of France, which, l believe.
was the first to introduce cards. Hearts
represented "choir men" or ecclesiastics.
and the early cards of that suit have a
cape which in form resembled heart.
The spade was originally pikehead, typ
flying the nobility or soldiery. The ar
tisans were represented by stone tile,
now known as the diamond. Farmers
were represented by the trefoil, or clover
leaf, now called club. The four kings
were originally David, Alexander, Caesar,
and Charlemagne, representing the four
great monarchies. The queens were Ar
gine, Judith, Esther, and Pallas, repre-
senting birth, fortitude, piety, and wis
dom. The knaves were either knights or
servants to knights.-Chicago Tribune.

Suffering Martyrdom From the Prss-

"A bug in his ear" is figure very ex-
tensiyely used in common conversation,
says the Mexico (Nto.) )IntelligeRcer. But.
reader, did you ever have bug in your
ear in fact2 If not, you have no idea
how it feels. II. +. Tomlinson, who ex-
perjeneed the sensation last week, says
he never suffered such torture in his life.
The bug crawled into his ear while no
was lying in bed asleep between II and
IL o'clock one night.
1t was only a common candlebug OF
ny, but the degree of torture one OF them
can inflict while in the ear is beyond the
scope of the imagination. Mr.. Tomlin.
son said that when he awoke he dreamed
that a railway train had jumped the
track, struck hHn in the ear. and was
ploughing its way through his head. The
train kept going, but it seemed that il
never would get through. Occasionally
it would stop and then start again with
renewed force. Then again the train
seemed to be at a standstill, but the
wheels would be turning with lightning
rapidity.
The train would move off gradually
with grating noise and would not stop
till the whistle blew for the next station,
or it ran off the track, or collided with
another train, which frequently oc-
CURED. Mr.. Tomlinson stood the torture
till daylight, when he sent for q
doctor, who succeeded in fishing
out the bug, which in the meantime had
died. Mr.. Tomlinson said that il the
bug had remained in his ear an hour
longer he would have been raving
maniac.
