Faithful Dog Friends Separated.

The corner of Second and Marion
streets is haunted by a mournful
looking dog of uncertain breed. His
behavior isstrong evidence that dogs,
even despised stray mongrels, feel
grief at the loss of friend
The locality has long been the loaf
ing place of two homeless dogs, with
neither owners, friends nor good
looks. There were as inseparable as
Damon and Pythias, but some I'M
feeling human, who seemed to have
a grudge against them, threw piece
OF meat dosed with strychnine in
their direction, and death carried off
one Of them. He writhed in Convul-
slons three times, and then he
stretched out his legs.
His old friend sat down by him and
mourned, nor would he be comfort
ed. A man tried to drag away the
body, but he was so sayagely at
tackled by the bereaved one that he
desisted. Others drove the dog away.
but he returned to his post. He sat
watching by the cold, stiff body of
the canine until the health officer
came along and had it removed, and
then he madesuch q disturbance that
his attacks were warded off with diff

Shakespeare wnsn.t a Deer shpale,

The ancient tradition of all the
textbooks in the English literature
to the effect that Shakespeare was
caught stealing deer and rabbits
when q lad from the park of Sir
Thomas Lucy of Charlotte is boldly
swept out of existence by the testi-
mony of the able librarian of the
Shakespeare Memorial library of
Stratford. This gentleman, in the
course of an able Series of papers in
The Home Journal, positively de-
clares that when Shakespeare was a
lad Sir Thomas had no deer park
and, moreover, that from the time
OF Henry VIII to that of James 7
there was no legal protection for rab-
bits and they were regarded as wild
ANIMALS. Consequently Shakespeare
could not have been indicted or pun
lshed for either reputed offense.

true to nature as anything Dickens
ever wrote. l could hear between
the lines the monotOnous patter of
rain and see the Pickering lights of
swaying lanterns and men moving
about the streets swearing at the ele-

on to within a half dozen lines of
