Of Pulaski, Tenn, secured a male and fe-

but failed. He kept them a year, and at
the end of that time they were as wild as

they became. Within the year they consum-

church mice. During that time the sow had

Booth could not tame any of these nor get

Finally he gave them to a negro, who now

Drowning Bulldog That Turned ON

A savage locking bulldog, which belonged
to schooner lying at a wharf in San Fran
cisco. fell into the bay the other day I'M
noticed by any one on board After vainly
trying to scramble up the vessels side saws
the Call. he caught hold with his teeth
on rope attached to a small boat living
alongside. Then attempted to place his
fore feet on the line to use it as a rest
but in this he was again unsuccessful. for
every time he made the attempt the small
boat would back, the rope would sag and
the brute would duck beneath the surface
Every time he came up again he was hang
Ing by his teeth with a sort of deathIike
grip to the line. This exercise, without
benehcial results, seemed to exhaust him
even more than his attempts to reach the
deck of the vessel For few moments he
rested, then turning his ugly face and his
wicked eyes toward those on the wharf
ne set up howl. A Newfoundland leaped
INTO the water. true to his instinct, and
swan toward the struggling bulldog The
latter, also showing his nature regarded
the rescuer's approach as challenge to
light. Releasing his hold on the painter
he turned and not only put himself on the
defensive but growled and snarled, and
f1nally made an attempt to bite the one
that would have helped him to a place OF
Saiety. Inc NeWloundiand not coward
by nature, but not fighter, realized that
bis good intention was not appreciated or
understood by the brute that had given
such bowls of distress, turned and swan
to the boat steps, from which he made
his way to the wharf, shook himself and
trotted away. In the meantime the unap-
preciative terrier swan back to the painter
got another grip with his teeth on it and
howled anew. About this time some one
belonging to the schooner seized the rope,
hauled the shrivering brute alongside and
Selling him by the skin of the neck hauled
him on board.
