Scarcely day passes in New York

If the dog is a denizen of the street
its peculiar actions attract an excited
crowd, and the dog. driven to extremi-
ties. loses all control of its passions, and
finding every mans hand against it
uses the only weapon nature has given it
to defend itself with.
The carelessness and ignorance of how
much there is i'll common between the
nature of man and brute is largely re-
sponsible for the increase of these SEEM
ingly rabid dogs. 1t is the neglected.
half starved and prosecuted dog who is

In all this great city it is a matter of
comment that there are so few drinking
troughs for horses. and it is a most ex-

for philanthropy in this respect.-Forest

where Wns Adam Buried?

Was Adam, 1.-The first man." the hus-
band of Eve and the victim of the ser
pent's wiles. buried in Missouri: The
Talmud says: The remains of Adam
were taken by Noah into the ark. and
when the ark rested on Mount Ararat
Noah and his sons removed the body
from it, and they followed an angel,
who led them to the place where the
first father was To lie. Shem being con-
secrated by God TO the priesthood per-
formed the religious rites and buried
Adam at the center of the earth. I"
Others relate that Noah on leaving the
ark distributed the bones of Adam
among his (Noah's) sons; that Shem was
given the skull, and that he buried it at
Golgotha, which, by strange coinci-
dence, you will remember, was known
as the place of skull. S. Basil says:
According to Jewish tradition, the
skull of Adam was found in Golgotha.
Solomon, by his great wisdom, knew
that Adams skull was buried there"
Golgotha was also known as Mount
Calvary, because Adams calvaria, or
skull, was inferred at that place.
But Joseph Smith, the Mormon proph-
ct, who was a most remarkable man,
was of the opinion that a place near
Gallatin, Mo-, was the center of the
earth. and that Adams remains were
buried there. A mound near that place

wild ca,,l. in the Northwest,

In several parts of Washington and
British Columbia are herds of wild ami
mails descended from domestic ancestors.
For instance, in the western edge of
Washington, next the coast, is the rem
nant of IA herd of cattle which for years
has roamed through the woods and over
the prairies there.
Long ago military post was main
tanned ON Gray's harbor, and adjacent
was large amount of cleared land,
cultivated by soldiers as farm. The
troop owned good many cattle. which
pastured ON part Of the garrison ranch.
For some reason or other the post was
abandoned ana the soldiers found il i'm
possible to take their cattle with them
So the animals were left there. and since
there We're no settlers in the vicinity 10
look after them the herd grew wild.
In spite of the fact that the heavy for
est afforded but small amount of pas
turage, and Notwithstanding the depre-
dations of black wolves, which then in
tested the woods along the coast, the
cattle increased i'll numbers very rapid
" and were "A constant annoyance To
early settlers. Fences were broken
down, crops We're destroyed and tame
cattle coaxed off to the woods Many
of the animals were killed by parties or
ganized To exterminate them, and the
remainder of the herd was driven into
