OLD BUFF KILLED.
Blind John slmmons's Dog Meets with
Fatality.

Blind John slmmons's Dog Meets with a
Fatality.
Poor John Simmons lost his best
friend yesterday by an accident at Ben
wood. His famous dog, Buff" was SC
badly nurt by being struck by Balti'
more & Ohio engine that, though he
was still alive last night, it was evident
that he could not recover aud that death
was only Il question oil time.
John was pcddling at Benwood yes
terday, guided by his faithful dog, as
usual, and late in the afternoon both he
and the dog were pretty tired, and he
let the dog loose to amuse himself as he
saw fit, while he himself sat down to
rest. Tho dog started to cross the raft
road track, and the engine struck him,
knocking him about twenty feet away,
aud injuring him fatally. 1t was not
two minutes after his owner unstrapped
him until he was lying, bleeding on the
ground.
The death of the dog was n severe
blow to poor Simmons. The pair were
among tho most familiar sights about
the city, and great interest was stirred
up in the afflicted man by m account OF
him and his dog printed in the INTEL
IIGEHCEa, with illustrations. Tho dog
was n marvelously intelligent guide,
displaying sometimes almost human
Judgment. lie could take his owner
unerringly to any place he had once
been by being directed by the name OF
the firm or person. He led him up
stairs and down, and took him through
tho crowded streets without an acci-
dent in all the four years he served him.
Simmons tried to train younger dog,
but could not do much with him. The
pup would not work TO suit old Bull,
and he punished it over and over, until
the two had to be kept apart.
The accident is q sad blow to Sim.
mons, who got around in all parts Of
town by the dogs aid, in a way which
caused wonder. 1t will be hard to get
another guide as intelligent aud faith

An arrest was made yesterday which
recalls very sensational burglary com.
mitted over eighteen months ago.
John Johnson, popularity known MS
"Jacky" Johnson, was arrested by Po-
liccman Dan O'Brien, on warrant is
sued by Squire Phillips. The COM
plainant was John Auber, sheet roller
at the Whitaker mill, whose house was
entered and robbed, and he made aili-
davit that johnson was one OF the two
men engaged in the burglary.
johnson was arraigned before the jus.
tice. who sent him to Jail in default OF
bail for his appearance for hearing at
p. m. to-day.
johnson is an employee Of the Balti-
moro & Ohio Railroad Company, and
his acquaintances were much surprised
when they learned OF the serious accus-
alton against him.
Auber has relcntlessly followed up
every clue to tho persons who robbed
him. and this arrest is the result.
The burglary occurred shortly before
midnight on the night OF February 8,
1892. Mr.. Auber was at work in tho
mill. Mrs. Auber was asleep with her
two little boys in room. She awoke
aud saw that the light was turned on
brightly and man was in the room.
She called out:
"Johnny, is that your"
FrL.O ..&lu anl ,.1alY,n;t,1 q
pistol, told her to keep quiet or he
would kill her. He was smooth faced
and had OH brown dicer. He had II
chid's money bank. He went to the
bureau and tool; up box containing
gold watch and chain and some jewelry.
Just then another man came to the
door and looked in. This man, Mrs.
Auber thinks, had a mask on, though
she is not sure.
The man in the room said:
go back, Jack! Go back"
Then both went down stairs and out
the door they had come in, locking the
door after them. This was side door,
Just outside OF which the key always
hung. They had found the key and
let themselves in.
In another room tho mon had search
ed several drawers. They took $45 in
bills, but lett certificates of deposit for
several hundred dollars. In all they
got about SO in cash and jewelry, in
Guiding the watch, worth about 5000.
The manner OF operating looked as if
the men knew something about the
habits of tho household. They wore so
bold that there can be no doubt that
they knew Mr.. Auber was generally
away at night, and their discovery OF
the key also looked as ii they we're not
entire strangers in the neighborhood.
Just what circumstances connected
johnson with the robbery is not known,
and the evidence heard at the examine
tion to-day will DO listened to with u
great deal OF interest.
