The Yak.

The yak, or grunting OK, derives its
name from its very peculiar voice,
which sounds much like the grunt of a
pig. 1t is native of the mountains Of
Thibet, and, according to Hodson, it
inhabits all the loftiest plateaus of
high Asia, between the Altai and the
Himalayas.
1t is capable OF domcstication, and is
liable to extensive permanent varieties,
which have probably been occasioned
bv the climate in which it lives and the
work to which it has been put. The
noble yak, for example, is large,
handsome animal, holding its head
proudly erect: having a large hump,
extremely long hair, and very bushy
tail. 1t is shy and withal capricious
animal. too much disposed to kick
with the hind feet and to make threat
ening demonstrations with the horns,
as il iiitintended to impale the rider. The
heavy fringes Of hair that decorate the
sides of the yal, do not make their ap-
pealance until the animal has attained
three months Of age, the calves being
covered with rough curling hair, not
unlike that of black Newfoundland
dog. The beautiful white bushy tail
of the yak is in great request for
various ornamental purposes, and
forms quite an important article OF
commerce. Dyed red, it is form
cd into those curious tufts that
decorate the caps of The Chinese, and
when properly mounted in silver
handle, it is used asa fly ilappcr in In
dia under the name OF Il chowric. TEe:e
tails are carried before certain officers
of state, their number indicating his
lank.
The plow yak is altogether more
plebian-looking animal, humble of de-
pertinent, carrying its head low, and
almost devoid Of the magnificent tufts
of long silken hairs that fringe the sides
of its more aristocratic relation. Their
legs are very short in proportion to
their bodies, and they are generally
tailless, that member having been cut
oil and sold by their avaricious owner.
There is also another variety, which is
termed the ehainorik. The color Of
this animal is black, the back and tail
being often white. The natives of the
country where the yak lives are in the
habit of crossing it with the common
domestic cattle and obtaining mixed
breed. When overloaded, the yak is
accustomed to vent its displcasure by
its loud, monotone, melancbolia grunt-
ing, which has been known to affect the
nerves Of unpracticed riders to such an
extent that they dismounted, after suf-
fcring half an hours intlictiom of this
most lugubrious chant, and performed
the remainder Of their journey on foot.

A Mad Dog scares tho Girls.

A mad dog caused a wild scene in
the Agnes Scott Institute for young
women at Decatur, Ga, yesterday.
In the morning the matron of the in-
stitute discovered canine in the din
ing-room. Ordinarily there would
have been nothing in such 4 discovery,
but the matron perceived that there
was something wrong with the dog.
There was an unnatural glitter about
the eyes. The matron sent for Butler
McMulliu. He took look through
an open window and then rcconnoitcr-
cd from the hall door. lie went TO the
diniug-room, but didn't stay long, for
the pug gave chase, swapping bis fierce
looking mouth in mad frenzy. The
butler closed the door behind him and
the pug was prisoner.
By this time the news had been COM
municated to the young women and
The excitement was intense. The ma
tron solcmnly forbade any one to leave
the building. a panic was imminent.
The butler declared war and sent boy
TO his house for a pistol. Carefully he
opened the door and through a crack
took aim and banged. The mad pug
was winged, but was still in the ring.
Bva flank movement the dog was seized
aud thrown out of a window, when two
more bullets ended his misery.
Afraid of him no longer, the young
ladies gathered about the dogs re-
mains with fearful eyes, their fright
having changed to lamenting. They
gave him the grandest of funerals, af-
forwards cremating the remains. In Il
body the girls followed the dog to the
furnace and joined in the refrain OF
"ashes to ashes
