Pnrs md Pictures.

Apropos of the recognition of pictures
by dogs, think you mas rs interested
in the tyro following facts which came
under my notice few years ago. A
sagacious but quito uneducated old ter
rier came with his master to call for
me. and coiled himself ON the hearth
rug while we talked. Turning himself
round in the intervals of slumber, bis
eye caught an oil painting just over his
head Ga life-size half-length of n gentle
NAM. He Immediately sat up, showed
his teeth and growled, not once, but
continually, as both angry and mortl-
fed that neither eyes nor nose had Civ
en- him notice of the arrival of strang-
or. The next instance was similar, eX-
cept that the chief actor was young,
intelligent collie, who. on the sudden
discovery of man looking at him from
the wall, parked long and furlously..
In both instances. after their excite
ment had subsidized, l led the dogs to
look at another picture similar in size,
and also OF q gentleman, but neither Of
them would take the smallest notice OF
It, I need only add that the picture
which the dogs appreciated was painted
by Sir Henry Raeburn-the other was
not. Might not few sagacious canire

THE earl of Dunmore. whoever he

strait on the ice from America TO
Asia Many people believe that the

Is constantly frozen over from shore
to shore, the current being sluggish
and seeminglyrareiess as to whether
IL runs north or sbuth. Sleighing or
walking, however, is not likely to
be easy, and the adventurous noble

along with him. But even If he
should succeed it is difficult to see

1t is to be hoped for the sake OF
the Central American states that
there is good foundation for the re-
port that a movement is on foot in
Guatemala for the union OF all the
states referred to. Separated they
are not strong enough to maintain a
national life that would be Of in
fluence upon other nations or bene-
fetal to their inhabitants. But united,
they would constitute a small but
sufficiently capable union. National
union would also tend to prevent
those wars that are in the nature Of
civil conflicts being between the
states that would COMPOSE the pro-
posed union.

KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAs.
A Split in the Order Over the Liquor
Question Possible.

A special dispatch of yesterday,
from Washington, D. c., gives the
following interesting details of the
Pythian proceedings in Supreme
Council, now in session in that city;
"a split in the Knights of Pythias
is said to be a possibility and per
haps the probable outcome of the
meeting now in progress here. AL
ready the committee designated to
consider the question of member
ship of liquor dealers has decided to
report against the future admis-
sion of this class, and now it is I'M
derstood that the committee in
charge of the matter known as the
"Gorman question" that is, the
question of permitting lodges to
perform the ritual in the German
language, has decided to make an
iron-clad report for the use of the
English language only 1t is said
by Supreme Chancellor Blackwell
to be the intention of Pythians to
make their order patriotic one
and to bend all its influences to the
support of the institutions of our
government. The opponents Of
the German lodges say that the
perpetuation Of a foreign language
in the United States will not tend
to support demonstrations of this
government, and think the foreign
members in the United States
should be Americanized.
The German lodges have been
open in the ayowal of their deter
mination to secede and conduct
their branch Of the order on their
own responsibility, in case the con-
test went against.them. 1t is I'M
derstood that a committee report
will be made against the recogni-
ton of the Pythian sisters as an
order.
The morning session Of the SUI
preme Lodge today was devoted to
the consideration Of the proposed
new constitution In the morning

DEATH AND DEvAsTATION.

Special Geographic news from the
scene of devastation and death,
caused by the terrible forest fires
in Minnesota, confirm the horrible
details given in yesterdays dis
patches. A later specialization st.
Paul, under date of Sept. Bird says:
Later details simply confirm the
reports received yesterday as to the
magnitude of the Hinckly disaster
the most conservative estimates of
dead in the six or eight towns in
Pine county being 1862, and from
that the figures so up to one thous-
and.
Although the exact number OF
dead will never be known, enough
is known to make this one of the
most appalling disasters in Ameri-
can history. More have persisted,
but never 50 many in so terrible a
manner. AS to property loss, all
thoughts have been of the dead,
and few could be made to talk
about their business losses. 1t is
probable that the loss at and around
Hinckly will exceed $2,OO0,O00, al
though no careful estimates have
yet been made. None can be made
at present, all papers and all rec
ords have gone up in the same
flames that so quickly deyoured all
the houses, the vegetation and al
most the land in large section OF
the Pine country. The rains today
cleared the air somewhat from
smoke, but were not heavy enough
entirely to quench the fires, which
would break out on slight provoca-
ton If they had aught to feed up
on.
OF the fires across in Wisconsin
less is known here up to midnight
but there has been no loss Of life
reported, and it is hoped all is over
Notwithstanding today's showers
however, the ground is dry an(
parched and all vegetation so dry

which he had procured for that
purpose. On being refused permis
sion to leave the house, for any
such hazardous undertaking, the
nervy boy proceeded to get possess
ion of his fathers gum large bore
rifle, with which he advanced to the
edge of the gallery, where he secur-
ed rest for his gun, and taking
steady aim severed the snakes
head almost from the body at

feature of the occurrence was that
the boy managed to take a sufici-
emily steady aim to kill the snake
while his mother, who feared for
her boys safety, was nervously tug
ging at his Jacket trying to pull
him back into the house. The
neighbors who saw the incident de-
clare it to have been a most won
derful exhibition of nerve and dar-
ing in a boy Of such tender years,
and declare that such a boy is
better protector for defenseless fe
males than the average man. The
hero to this interesting snake
story bears his honors with be-
