The graceful and symmetrical Russian
wolf hounds will gain fresh admirers.
There have been many importations and a
large class of these may be expected. They
are very similar to the English grey hound
and Scottish deer hound. Fox hounds,
both English and American, come in for
some attention, but it is when we come to
the sporting class-the hunting dogs-that
the awards become numerous and valuable.

ABOUT DOGS
CANINE ARE7MRA7S At THE GOTHAM DOG SHOW.


NEW YORK, Feb. 1.--One of Gotham's
great society events ia the dog show. This
has invariably been held under the auspices
of the Westminster Kennel club, and it
has grown in importance year by year until
now nearly all of New York's society lead
ers are seen there admiring the dogs and
criticising each other.
The show will be held In the Madison
Square garden on the 24th, 25th, 26th and
9th of this month. The club has dster-
mined this year that the exhibition shall sur
pasb any previous event Of the kind, and the
encouragement offered to owners Of valu-
able dogs includes so many unusual induce
ments that the honor and the special prizes
are not the only inducements to be consid-
cred. Many OF the dogs must come from
distant states, n the money prizes rarely
pay the expenses of transit, but the honor
of a prize taken in New York is very
attractive and there will be in Madison
Square garden this year greater and more
notable assemblages of canine aristocracy
than was ever seen before. Many of the An
est dogs to be procured in England, Russia
and German will be OF exhibition side by
side with the pride of American kennels,
and may fnd themselves outranked in the
contest, for the enterprise and skill of the
American breeders have gone as far as it is
possible, and at the New York show there
will be specimens which cannot be sur
passed.
There will not be many of tbs last field trial
winners at the coming show, not because a
good share of the winners came from Eng
land. but from the fact that the dreaded
6istemper has carried off two or three of
the most noted dogs, and others are only
just recovering. There will be future win
ners on hand though. Mr.. Geo. Jarvis will
have his brace of pointers. which he intends
TO run in the trials next year. Lad" has
already won first at New York. being sue
cessful in the puppy class last year.
1t is in the Irish setter ranks that more
of 1.-THE coming will be heard of. At the
last show, principally through the efforts of
Mr.. Louis C~ontoit, the Irish Setter CLUB
was recognized. This led to much talk,
but the action is to come this present year.
MIR. Contoit and others will then bring for

at the show.

Some Exciting Scenes in the Early
Legislative history of the sta.e.


Legislative history of the state.
From the San Francisco Examiner.
The scenes recently enacted in the legis-
lative halls of Lincoln call to mind similar
troubles which convulsed the peace of the
state in the sixties.
Whom Butler was governor a great out
cry was raised against his methods of con-
Quoting his Office, and his impeachment was
made an issue of the campaign.
Nearly every county convention in the
state exacted a pledge from its legislative
nominees to vote for the impeachment of
Butler. Senator Schofield OF Nebraska
City was elected from Otoe county on an
anti-Butler platform, tut after he reached
Lincoln 1t was reported that he had been
FRUSTRATED by the governors sack to the
extent of $1,000. The correspondent of the
Nebraska City NetcS charged hum with
being bribed, and he notified the CORE
spondeut that he would shoot him at noon
if he did not retract his statement.
The proprietor of the Nei1S was William
Hicklin, man of great determination He
was captain OF the City Guards, and hear
ing of the danger threatening his cor
respondent wired him not to weaken aud
that be would be there before noon to help
him.
BE called together his company of sixty
men, chartered a train, and took all bands
to Lincoln.
They made the run at extraordinary
speed, everything being side-tracked for the
occasion, and reached the depot at ten min
utes before II.
When Hicklin reached the Tichnor house
Scoheld was standing in the billiarn-room
holding his watch and drawn plstoI and
saying that the correspondent would not
live after ~ O'Clock if he did not apologize.
1t lacked but few seconds of the hour
when Hicklin came in, and seeing Scofleld
before his correspondent, knocked him
down and dragged him in a room, where he
disarmed him. Several more men came in
aud they told Scofield that unless he voted
to impeach Butler they would hang him.
Next day the vote was taken, and Hiok-
lin, with his company, sat in the gallery
and dangled a noosed rope over the recresnt
senator's head.
When his turn came he voted as be was
pledged to before the county convention.

Immediately over nv head, and found
that the soft blue light of my grotto

What g0l'ious sight awaited me!
The heavens were without cloud, and
the sun shone with dazzling splendor
