Queen victOria's Dogs.

Dogs were first admitted to the
court of England in the reign of Hen
ry VIII. Under the present reign
three dogs have been elevated to the
highest canine dignities on account OF
their aristocratic families and their
own peculiar merits. The names OF
the arristocatic Trio are Marco, Roy,
and Spot. Marco is the Qeen's ia
vorit, and he used to he very jealous
of John Brown. His ancestry can be
traced back to the crusaders. He Is
what they call in England a Pomcra-
Man, and at one of the recent dog
shows won the first prize, the mug of
honor. The other favorite, Roy, is a
collie, and Spot is a fox terrier with
a record of twenty-five rats in Il quar-
ter of an hour.
These canine lords have their resi-
dences with their special names. Her
maiesty's dog palace is divided into
three parts the Queens veranda,
collie court, and umbrella court.
The veranda is the principal one.
1t is covered gallery around the
kennel, and the Queen likes to walk
there.
Each kennel has dining-room and
bedroom. The floor of the dining
room is separated from the yeranda
by an iron grating. 1t is paved with
red and blue bricks, and the furni
ture consists Of a trough, always full
of fresh water. The bedrooms have
two large windows generly kept open
for the purpose of ventilation, and in
snug corner in each room there is
low bed with mattress Of fresh
straw.
Umbrella court gets its name from
the big umbrella in the middle Of it,
under which the dogs can shelter
themselves from the sun and rain. A
host Of servants wait upon the canine
nobility, and the Queen isycry severe
with the official who do not pay prop
er attention to her dogs. A chief is
provided FOR them, and his instruc-
tons are to very the menu ofthe din
ners Of her majesty's pets and to con-
suit their tastes. Elk.

hands of the Catholic hierarchy.
They made many offers, all of which
were refused, Gaping the climax by
offering it's weight in gold. As the
weight Of the book is exactly 325
ponds, that offer was considered as
being equivalent to 1925, 900 of United

Postmaster General biasell told a

that he though the question OF cam

any one else, and undoubtedly their

said also the statements that women

The Worlds Fair siay Open on Sundays.
1t is thought. by many that the bill
recently introduced in the legislature
at Springfield to open the Illinois
exhibit to the public on Sunday, will,
if successful, result in opening the
entire fair on that day
The attorneys who drew the bill
for the the Secular Union claim that
if the bill passes it will open the en-
tire fair. They say the Exposition
Company is an Illinois corporation,
and as such is subject to all present
and future laws OF the State.
They consider the Congressional ac-
ton closing the fair on Sunday as a
contract between Congress and an H.
linois corporation. and insist that the
laws of Illinois form the first and main
part of such contract. 1t is claimed
that the State has not coded the iuris-
diction over jackson Park to the Unit
ed States, and therefore Illinois re-
tains its police power over the park.
The attorneys say that had Congress
contracted with the exposition to keep
open on Sunday, the State legislature
would have had the power to close the
gates at this time. They admit, how
ever, that their bill may be defeated
and that their plans will be weak.

The Cherokee ssrin.

-
When the Senate ratified the treaty
tor the session to the United States
of the Cherokee strip it inserted
therein a clause which provides that
the compensation for the land is TO
be made in time payment in place Of
the requirement that the Government
pay cash, as was contemplated in the
agreement originally drawn up with
the Indians. This modification of
the treaty has not been accepted by
the Indians, but will be considered by
their legislative body, the Cherokee
Council, at a meeting to be held at
the capital of the nation next Mon
day.
The early opening of the strip will
be entirely dependent upon the Conn
Gil, for should it reject the modifica
ton Of the treaty made by the Senate
then it wall be necessary for the mat
ter to be again brought before Con
gress, which would, of course, indefi-
nitely delay the opening Of the lands
to settlement. If, on the other hand,
the Council accepts the change the
anxious settlers who are now holding
10 secure home in the new country
will have an opportunity to CRAFTY
their desire. While the officials OF
the Interior Department are making
active preparations to open the strip
yet they say the public should be
made acquainted with the exact status
of the case, so that if any unusual
delay occurs in the opening of tho
lands to settlement the responsibility
will not rest with the department.
