ing at the village he deposits his basket is no one in the store he barlxs two or three times to call attention. When he sees the paper in the grocer's hands he goes out to reconnoiter; he drinks at the fountain, holding a smelling conversation with the dogs stretched out in the sun, like lizards, but he call culates his time so well that his loafing never exceeds a qucster of an hour, when he returns to the grocer. Coulo- mier has placed what is ordered in the basket, gives it to Mouton, who seizes it with his strong jaws and runs off with it homeward bcand.
 But one day the basket contained live cells, wrapped in napkin. The route was along near canal, and follows it for long distance. Mouton, with the basket in his mouth, was trotting along, when suddenly the child of the lock- keeper, baby two years old, fell into the canal. The dog hears the cries of the infant and the sound of splashing in the water; he sets down his basket, leaps into the canal, seizes the baby by
  The child does not move, and Mouton, who had laid it on the ground, takes it up again by it's garments, and bears it to the loclx-lSeeper's house. The mother was seated in the kitchen pairing pota- toes. Mouton enters at one bound and places the child upon her lap, and then hurries off to get his basket. But he finds that those rascally cells, per ceiving that they were near the water, have wriggled and struggled in such way that they have succeeded in escap- ing from their cloth prison. They were squirming in the dust, and aiming for the canal. Mouton, instead of seizing them by the tail or the middle of the body, grasped them by their heads and wrung their neclSs. After having thus laid them all out he placed their bodies in the basket again and took them to his master.
 To go and carry that basket to the place where he had been taught to put it might, if necessary, be attributed to instinct merely, but nobody had taught him to save a child from drowning, and then, seeing the child inanimate. to tdhc lb up dSsilu tnd it oO ieo mother, shows not only intelligence but goodness of heart
 Many a man, less intelligent than Mouton, would not have reasoned so we'll as this: Tn order to take to my master what has been intrusted to my care I must kill these cells, for living I cannot get them back into the napkin, as while em picking up one the others will get away" And notice that the seven cells were killed in the same way.
 This brave dog is, according to my idea, more intelligent and has more mind than a good number of fresh young men of my acquaintance, who little suspect that they are far from being of as much value as the good Mouton.
 The scene of saving the child and that of recapturing the cells was wit messed by two peasants wfo were on the other side of the canal.
 This story, one year old, is absolutely true.-Paris Revue Spirite.

SOME ASPECTS OF DRESS.
Mrs. Amelia B. Barr on Costume
 in It's Social Phases.
Women Are Extravagant. But Men Are Che First and the Greatest einacra- They Buy and Provoke Women
 to Buy Also.
lcoPYRIGHT. lse4.l

One of the most proper and into lest ing studies of the present day slcos- tune in it's social and moral aspects; for its relation to fashion is in comparison but partial and passing af7air Dress has deeper sigHiRcatios1s than mere mode; it is, In fact, the outward and visible sign of thrt harmony which al- ways subsists between man and his artificial covering. The scant, square, gracelcss clothes of the Egyptians were us characteristic as their obelislxs and pyramids. The loose ample robes of the Asiatic, the homelincss of Saxon fashions, the picturesque taste of the Stuarts, the hundred different styles which Fashion has tried on the women of the last two centuries, have a. far deeper meaning than mere personal pride or vanity. They touch religious, social and even political aspects, and are the mirror of their periods.
 The most noticeable feature in the dress of the present day is the disap- pearance of national and class cos tunes The picturesque, comfortable dresses of the peasantry of every na- ton are being rapidly abandoned, and men and women grow yearly moro and more cosmopolitan in character. Ladies in all countries wear the same gowns and trimmings, and bonnets, and every respectable male on the planet is supposed to own a tweed suit and a derby hat. New York has seen many nationalities in their pecul- far costume, brighten Broadway, but in the future she. must resign herself to uniformity of dresses and bonnets, of trousers and coats and headgcar.
 The next feature noticeable in the dress of the present day is it's extrava- gance. The world is growing rich and we are passing from the old to the new, because making money is slowly alter. ing all our opinions. Hardly anyone is now content with "the station in which it has pleased God to place them," and they disdain all the signs peculiar to it. Servants wear sham silks and jewels

 My hero is not a mutilatcd ram nor ''spy," in the technical terms of the po- lice, but large, robust, magnificent dog, whose beautiful white and curly fleece, like that of sheep, was the cause of his being named Mouton (sheep.) His eye is mild and intelli- gent, and at times, when he is in good humor, one would say that he lausts, so animated his eye becomes and his jaws wriggle so drolly.
 Mouton belongs to Duke J., who resides in charolais. When say that he belongs to the duke Pm mistaken, for he is the property of the adopted son. the friend and the porter of John. his keeper.
 John has brought him up carefully;he has taught bim to perform tricks, but he has specially trained him to do his errands. The village from which the supplies are obtained is. nearly two miles distant from the homestead, and when John has not time to go there he writes an ordcr of what. he needs on a piece of paper, puts the paper in a basket, and the handle of the basket in the dogs mouth, then pointing in the direction of the village, he says to him: Run quick to Coulomiers."

Lord Aberdeen is reported as telling the following story of himself: He left London at midnight in sleeping car for the north. In the morning when he was awakened he saw stranger opposite him.

 Somewhat surprised, his lordship re piled that he was tolerably well to do

THOUGHT 1T WAS DYNAMITE.

An Explosion in San Francisco Which
Startles Residents in the Vicinity.
SAN FRANCISCO, March 13.-Residents
on Mission street, between Seventeenth
and Eighteenth streets, were startled
about O'Clock this morning by loud
explosion, which, it is said, was followed
by second one of equal violence. Win
dows were hurriedly thrown open and
people pushed their heads out to ascertain
the cause. Many labored under the inn
preston that another dynamite explosion
had occurred, and expected when they
reached the sidewalk to find two or three
people killed or badly injured.
The explosion occurred in the paint
shop OF Charles Phelan, at 2117 Mission
street, and by it the owner was blown
clear across the street. His clothing was
on fire, and before any assistance could
be rendered Phelan was severely burned
about the head, face and hands. He was
hurriedly taken TO the Receiving Hos
pital, where his injuries were attended to
and the pain allayed.
But that is not the worst of Phelan's
misfortunes. His actions in connection
with the fire have impressed Fire Marshal
Towe as being mysterious, to say the
least, and policeman sits near Phelan's
couch in the hospital TO see that he does
not escape the law if he does escape
death.
Fire Marshal Towe has learned that the
place was on fire once before and the
origin was suspicious. Beside, Phelan
has 81 900 insurance on the place. He
says his stock was valued at 100, but
the Fire Marshal discredits this state

In his report Mr.. Gregory dwelt upon
the advisability of sub-dividing land
holdings as much as possible, and using
all possible means to encourage immigra-
ton of people likely to form desirable
class of population.
w. II. Mills, following up the line OF
the Presidents report, said that he was
certain that immigration on large scale
into this State would commence very
soon. 1.-THE general movement starts
after hard times" said Mr.. Mills. 1.-The
people want to move into new country
and start anew. | am certain that this
immigration is about to take place, for
unmistakable signs of it are seen on all
sides.'' He thought that large landed
proprietors should be induced to put
some Of their land on the market at rea-
sonaple figures.
A resolution for the listing of salabIe
lands with the board was referred to the
Finance Committee.

NO FEAR OF TROUBLE.
WASHINGTON, March 13.-The War De-
partment has received no request for ra-
tions from any one connected with the
Industrial League, said to be contemplate
ing a raid in force on Washington, and no
such requisition is likely to be honored,
if made. The army officers do not relish
the threat that the Capital is to be overrun
by horde of unemployed and hungry
people, as it would add greatly to the bur-
den of the relief organizations here. But.
touching the implied threat of trouble
and disturbance in store for the town if
the extraordinary demands of the foment-
ers of the Industrial League movement is
not granted, the army officers have no
anxiety. Ever since the riots here in the
seventies the War Department has real
lied the Importance of having at hand a
sufficient force to meet any emergency,
and they feel that there is no fear of
trouble from this last sensational move

HEATH MURDER TRIAL.
A New Witness Placed on the Stand
by the Prosecution.

O5 tuo ITOSecuC1On.
FRESNO, March 13.-A. V. Morse.
new witness, was called to the stand in the
Heath case to-day. He now lives in San
francisco, but lived in Fresno at the time
OF the McWhirter murder, and was in
charge of vineyard. He testified that
Heath had been in his employ prior to
McWhirter's death. The witness was in
town at the time of McWhirter's death.
he saw Heath the day before at o'clock
IN the evening and at 10 at night at the
Grand Hotel. Heath came in and en-
gagged room. The next morning at
O'Clock he saw him in front of a saloon.
He asked Heath if he had heard the
news. Heath said: II would not be sur
prised if they gave me trouble about this.
I'm accused of it. They say / know

living there, and that / went there to get
even with him. They may make hard
case against me. | was in bed all night,
but it may be pretty hard for me to prove
L was In bed all the time.'
A Deputy Constable Of MADEIRA, How
ard Wells, also was a new witness. He
gave more important testimony. He
said he was in Fresno on the night of the
murder. He had come here after man
wanted at Los Banos. Witness was at
the Grand Central Hotel about 1880
o'clock at night, and saw Heath coming
out of the hotel.
Samuel K. j. Hooking was brought to
Fresno from a ranch near Selma, last
night, by Assistant District Attorney
Mark Walser. II was rumored that
Hooking is the John Doe who assisted in
the murder of McWhirter, and for whom
the officers have been looking ever since
the tragedy. Walser absolutely denied
such to be the case. He said Hooking
had no connection with the crime. Hook
ing was wanted because he could throw
light upon certain point that it was the
intention of the prosecution to introduce
at the trial
