HOMAGE TO DOW.

w. C. T. u. of England and America

Hearty Greetings Flashed Under

NEW York, March 21.--Homage that
a king would appreciate has been paid
for the past two or three days on two
continents to General Neal Dow of
Maine on the occasion of the Goth BIRTH
day of the famous father of prohibitory
law, or the "Grand Old Man of Prohibi-
ton" as Miss Frances Willard has
christened HIM, and it has fallen to the
share of few men not identi-
fled with political life to re-
ceive the international recog-
milton that goes out to the venerable
New England citizen of the Pine Tree
state. Nearly year ago the idea of
an international celebration of the day
was conceived, and the event was for
INFLATED by Miss Frances Willard, and
it was at once taken up by hundreds of
branches of the Women's Christian
Temperance union in this country, as
we'll as by the temperance societies Of
Great Britain, the latter designating it
as white Letter day."

This Dog Knew Too Much.

Jack, an Irish setter whose home is
in Maryland, has the regular duty of
bringing the mail from the letter box at
the gate, the house standing we'll back
from the road. His family were an
ticipatfHg a two weeks visit to New
York and proposed sending Jack to the
country during their absence. Jacks
wishes in the matter were not consulted,
and he was not invited to take part in
the discussion, but that he listened was
proved by his actions. 1t was decided
to start on a Tuesday evening, provided
a letter were received by the mornings
mail. 1t did not come, however, nor in
the afternoon, when Jack brought up
whole batch, and to bis satisfaction no
one left home. Several days, passed.
Then telegram came inquiring what
was the matter. An exchange of letters
disclosed the fact that the promised let
ter was written and should have been
received when expected, Asearch, into
which Jack was impressed, much against
his will, discovered the missing letter
hidden in a hencoop, and it here unmis-
taxable evidence that Jack had placed
it there,
New, it is not to be supposed that
Jack could read or distinguish hand
writing. so his keen nose must have rec
ognized the writer, who was frequent
visitor, of whom he was very fond, but
only from listening to the talk could he
have connected that person with the
plans for departure. This is the only
instance OF lacks ever betraying trust.
