The creation of something like Ian
guage among our civilized dogs has nat
urally been accompanied by the devel-
opment Of an understanding of human
speech. Although we cannot attach
much importance to the mass Of anec-
dote on this point, there is enough
which is well attested, sufficient indeed
which has come within the limits of my
own observation, to make it clear that
dogs even without deliberate teaching,
frequently acquire tolerably clear I'M
derstanding of a number of words and
even of short phrases. They will catch
these not only when given in distinct
command. but when uttered in an ordi-
nary tone without any sign that they
relate to their affairs. 1t is true that
these understood words generally relate
to some action which the dog is accus-
toned to perform, yet there are instan-
ces SO well attested that they deserve
credit, which Seem to show that the
creatures can get some sense Of the
drift of conversation even when it is
carried on by persons with whom they
are not familiar and does not clearly re-
late to their own affairs.
An extremely human characteristic OF
our canine friends is shown in their
susceptibility toEridicule. Faint traces
of this quality are to be found in mon
keys, and perhaps even in the more in
telligent horsessbut nowhere else save
in man, and hardly there, except in the
more sensitive5natures, do We find con-
tempt, expressed in laughter Of the kind
which conveys that emotion, so keenly
and painfully appreciated. With those
dogs which are endowed with a large
human quality such as our various
breeds of hounds,it is possible by laugh
ing in their faces not only to quell their
rage, but to drive them to a distance.
They seem in a way to be put to shame
and at the same time hopelessly puz-
zled as to the nature of their predica-
ment. In this connection we may note
the very human feature that after you
have cowed a dog by insistent laughter
you can never hope to make friends
with him.-Prof N. S. Shaler in Serb

The Art of N untIng u Camel.

To mount a camel for the first time
is for a Howadji, until he gets the hang
Of 1t, q complicated and anxious pro-
cess. The first risk Is that the animal
will rise while the rider is climbing
into the saddle. This he will inevita-
bly, do If the attendant has forgotten
to place his foot on the camers knee.
The novice having settled in his sad
die which is like fiat wooden tea
tray on the top of hump, and taken
tight grip Of the "horns." of which
there is one in front and one be-
hind. waits in suspense, wondering
which end of the animal means to get
up first. The action. when it does be-
gin. is a violent seesaw in three jerks,
which impel him alternately in the di-
rection of the head and tail. until If he
is he lucky, he finds himself ten feet
from the ground. The fifteenth century
pilgrim, Felix Fabri, so exactly eX-
presses my sentiments about camels
that L will quote his remarks. He says:
A camel has a small head and is
without horns. 1t has big and terri
Bile eye, and always seems a sorroWful
and troubled animal. It's eyes are like
fire beacons, and big reflections shine
in them. for whatever a camel looks at
seems great and huge to it,wherefore it
seems to view everything with wonder
and alarm. When, therefore, a man
goes up to it, the beast begins to
tremble, so that the man perceives
that the beast begins to trcmble be-
cause the man coming toward it seems
| to it to be four times bigger than he
| really Is.
Had not God so ordered it, this ami
NAL would not be as tame and disci-
plined as it is. When it screams. be-
ing in trouble it opens its mouth,
shakes it's head and raises up its
long neck. wagging it to and fro, so
that a man who is not accustomed to
it is disturbed and frightened.

Lower Prices the Rule and the Stock Mark
ct Was Very Dull and in the Main
Heavy.
New York, June &.-Thc comparatively
slight interest which the stock market has re-
Elected this week has resulted in lower prices,
particularly for stocks Of bankrupt railway
companies. Northern Pacific preferred, Union
Pacific and Atchison have been the principal
sufferers. The shares Of q few solvent corpo-
rations, namely, Missouri Pacific, ST. Paul,
Denver and Rio GrNnde preferred, and Wabash
preferred have sustained losses nearly as
great as those recorded by the stocks first
mentioned. The industrial stocks have been
fairly active, ald, as rule, closed higher than
week ago. The only noteworthy exceptions
arc Distiling ard General Electric. Tic eiIec-
tive selling of railway stocks has been by for
eign holders or operators, who have apparent
ly become convinced of the magnitude of the
contributions they will be required to make
in connection with the reorganization Of i'll
solvent companies by the publication Of the
Atchison plan Of reorganization.
To-day's bank statement shows that receipts
Of money from the interior have been about
Si5O,000 in excess Of the money withdrawn
from the banks to secure gold for export. The
most gratifying change in the statement Is an
increase of over two and a half millions in the
loans This and the increase in cash bring
the deposits up over 100000, which is very
nearly margined by the increase i'll reserve,
so that tho surplus is only SCI 900 less than last
week. The stock market was very dull, and
in the main heavy and lower, the only note
worthy exceptions being Chicago Gas and
General Electric. The weakness OF the mar
ket on light transactions created an uneasy
feeling, aud it was entirely among profession
al traders.
As compared with the final prices Of last
Saturday, the list Is lower with the exception
OF Chicago Gas, which is X per cent. higher,
and National Lead Il per cent. The more i'm
portant net declines were In Consolidated Gas,
per cept.: Union Pacific, 90; Missouri Pa
ciic ah; Atchison, Northern Pacific preferred
aud Wabash preferred an each, St, Paul, 2;

Probably Fatally InJursd.
An italian who Is known rs Pasquale

resides Mt 215 Commerce street, was
probably fatally injured at the Union
depot about $3.50 o'clock Inst evening
aud was taken to the hospital where II
was stated that he was in very pre-
earious condition and would probably
not survive his injuries.
Jcnetta or Matello, is Il workman em-
ployed NJ the Shore Line cut. After
finishing his work yesterday he came
into the city on the regular work train
which arrives In this city about $50
o'clock. When the train reached the
north end of the depot, Jenetta was in

train before IL came TO stop.
In stepping of jenetta struck against
one Of the posts and was thrown back
under the train. The wheels passed
over the lower portion of his body cut

The left leg was cut completely off and
the right leg hung only by shred OF
skin. The police ambulance was sum-

A CHINESE SCHooLBOY.-Proo
the happiest boy in the Washington
high school today is young Chinese
lad, the son of one Of the attaches of
the legation here, writes a correspou-
dent in the Brooklyn Eagle. This
bey has been going to the high school
for the past year, and while he has
always been very anxious to don the
uniform Of the battalion and drill with
the rest of the cadets, the Chinese
minister has steadfastly refused to
grant permission, and has insisted on
his wearing his native costume at all
times. The result Of some of the bat
ties of the war now pending between
China and Japan, however, has appar-
emily opened the eyes of the minister
to the Importance OF military training,
and be has so far relented that he has
given the Chinese lad permission to
drill twice every week with the rest
OF the high school cadets. According
ly the boy has had his measure taken
for the regulation school uniform, and
will make his first appearance in tho
battalion during the coming week.
That he will not be perfectly green in
the art of drilling may be inferred
from the fact that during the past few
weeks he has been receiving private
instruction in military tactics from q
tutor who was specially engaged at
the legation.

a GREAT AND USEFUL MAN.-Hon.
Robert G. Winthrop, chairman of the
board of trustees ofthe Peabody fund.
and for whom the Girls Industrial
college ut Rock Hill was named, died
at his home in Boston, Mass, on the
10th inst. Mr.. Winthrop was born in
Boston, Mass, on May IL, 1909, and at
the time of his death was in his Seth
year. He was descendant in the
sixth generation Of the famous John
Wlnthrop, who was one of the colonial
governors OF Massachusetts,. He was
graduated from Harvard College in
1873, studied law under Daniel Web.
ster, and was admitted to the bar in
1881. He abandoned law shortly after
ward Tor politics, and was several times
elected rs u member of the Massachu-
setts Legislature. He next went to
Congress and served in that body 10
years, the last two as Speaker of the
House. In 1850 he was appointed United
State Senator to fill out the unexpired
term of Daniel Webster. The next
year he was candidate before the
Massachusetts Legislature for the full
term In the Senate; but was defeated.
Some years afterward he became one
OF the trustees of the Peabody fund,
and since he has been engaged in the
work OF furthering education, especial
ly in the South. Mr.. Winthrop was
great in intellect, great in philanthro-
ply and great in character. His long
and useful life was model of proprie-
ty, and he will certainly be remembered
by future generations as benefactor
to his race.

thereto. They have been so expended,
as will appear by the reports Thereof
submitted to the Federal authorities
and to the, Governor of the State, as
required by law.
The strain upon the resources of the
colleges by reason of the great demand
for II privileges, has been and is still
enormous. The board of trustees feel
that they5voice the sentiment of the en-
tire people of the State when they say
I that this demand should be met amply
and to. the fullest extent. The neces-
stiles of the institution to this end have
BEEN carefully considered, and the fol-
lowing appropriations NE asked for
with the assurance that every dollar
asked for Is actually needed and neces-
sary to the equipment and proper con-
duct of hecollege.
1t is therefore j especially requested
that the General Assembly make an
appropriation of S35, 900 to further de-
yelop and equip the institution.
The convict labor heretofore fur
nished by the State has proved invalu-
able both in the construction of build
1ngs and the development of the farm.
There still remains large amount of
work on the farm to fit 1t for experi-
mental and other purposes, which can
only be done economically by convict
labor. We therefore ask that at least
thirty-three conviotsS be furnished to
the college next year,upon the same
terms AS heretofore.
In conclusion, the board desire to
assure the General Assembly and the
citizens of South Carolina that their
fixed and unalterable purpose is to
maintain the characteristic distinc-
tions of Clemson College, and we. feel
safe in saying that in this purpose we
will be sustained by the President,
members OF the faculty. and every off,
cial in the college.
