around the corner of Eighty-tir: street
into Central park west late one Sunday
night, says the New York Sun. two
fresh wounds on his back indicated that
his friendly advances had been re-
pulsed. Somebody had struck or
kicked him and his body was quivering
with pain. He was unattached, hun
CRY, and weak, but he had hopes
A boy came down the street and
made strike at him with a stick. The
dog drew back into the doorway Of an
apartment house and stood there
thinking it over He shifted the air
weakly and found in it no suggestion
of food. Then, with little whine, he
nursed his wounds. A man came out
of the door, and finding a scraggy-
looking cur blocking his way, kicked
him to one side and walked up town.
The dog picked himself up. Perhaps
he would have better luck next time,
so he just loafed around. He attempt
ed to tag behind passerby as if he be-
longed and just as he was regaining
his self-respect the man turned
around and said: Get out, you
cur" The dog stopped short. He
watched the man until he turned
down a side street. Then the dog
walked back to his corner still hoping.
When a young woman with her escort
passed him he was a wise dog and he
got up d little appealing bark. The
young woman bent over and said:
why, you poor, lonesome little dog"
And when she patted him on the head
his stubby little tail waggled hard and
his eyes frightened. This was the
sympathy he had been looking for. He
fell in behind and followed his newly
acquired friends to an apartment house
half a dozen blocks up the street. Sew
era1 times the woman turned around
and addressed a remark to him, and
she called him ''doggie'' because she
hadn't known him long enough to give
him a name. She probably would at
tend to that after she had fed him. AS
his two friends entered the apartment
house they evidently forgot him, for
the door was closed in his face. They
would remember him when he barked,
so he made noise. Then he whined
little and waited.
An open English avenue car was COM
ing down grade at rapid pace, and
party of picnickers in it were singing.
The dog walked out to the curb and
watched the well-lighted car approach.
Possibly the lights and the noise dazed
him as he was crossing the track. AS
the car bowled by there was wild
kiyi under the horses hoofs and the
wheels rolled over something. The
conductor went back to investigate.
"Only dog" he said as he rang to go
ahead, land he's dead for fair What
I don't understand is why, with the
whole street free, he should permit
himself to be run over"

II. j. staff, Liverpool clerk on a
touring trip in Ireland, had a remark
able escape from death at Howth, SAYS
the Westminster Gazette. One even
ing he descended by the grassy slopes
which lie some distance downward
from the top Of the cliffs for the pur-
pose Of gathering wild flowers. He
was thus engaged at a point between
the nose Of HOwth and the Bailey light
house, when he accidentally missed
his footing and went topping down
ward. This occurred at about $40
o'clock, and when he awoke to con
seriousness about 9 o'clock, three hours
afterward, Mr.. staff found himself
resting on platform about a foot
wide, lying between two lodges Of
rock. and on which some stones and
heritage had accumulated The inter-
veniug three hours were passed in rncr-
I ciful oblivion. His position was one cal

to height Of 200 feet, while the
waves played 100 feet beneath him.
Here he was, suspended between
I heaven and earth, with only an inse-

him and almost certain death He
\ called for assistance, but in vain. As
/ the night wore on he still continued to

with it came rescue. About o'clock
John Leyland and Andrew Moore, two

ed to climb to his assistance. but in
vain. Moor advised him to return to
the boat and he did 50, and both men
rowed to Howth for assistance. The
knowledge Of the cOming help inspired
the poor fellow with renewed courage.
The fishermen, on arriving at Howth
acquainted the police with the state Of
affairs, and ultimately, after further
exciting scenes. rescue party OF coast
guardsmen succeeded in removing the
unfortunate man from his perilous
position. No sooner had they done so
than the platform Of rock came crash

IGNoRANUs.m
In answering the above the Brook
Ign Eagle says;
The best man is not always un-
married. but he is usually selected
from IA groom's bachelor friends, and
is supposed to be as much his intimate
as ordinary men ever choose TO have.
To him is conhded the route Of a
wedding journey, and he secures
drawing-room seats, telegraphs for
rooms ut hotels-if a hotel is ia the
plan of a wedding journey; sees that
the baggage is properly checked, pro-
yided the groom has no valet, ac-
companies him to the church, stands
next to him during the ceremony, pre-
sents the clergyman with his fee, and
afterward, il requested by the brides
family. sends to the press an adver-
tisement OF the marriage, particulars
for which are furnished by them. also
by the groom. whenever his line of
descent or special titles are added to
the same. OF course, the cost
of all this is borne by
the groom, except, perhaps, the eX-
pense Of the press, which the brides
father will choose TO defray. A best
man is last to leave the church. but at
the reception later he is at liberty to
Join the guests or take q place by the
maid Of honor. He goes to the rail-
way agent or steamer to see the
bridal party oil, provided the distance
to the place Of departure is not too
great, and then returns to the parents
of the bride to bring back their greet
ings. The best man relieves the
groom Of many essential details and
every care possible at q time when a
bridegroom has right-it such right
is due any man at any time-to per-
feet freedom and from every anxiety
and every duty. It is his hour Of hap
piness, and to be truly content tran
quillity Of mind is a necessity. Of
course a comrade is undeserving the
name of friend if he is not glad to
make, if possible, this bridal day u
perfect memory. The secrct-if it
has been kept a secret-of the destin-
alton of the married travellers is his.
and he protects it. Indeed nobody is
likely to ask it Of him.
