Historical Age of the Dog.

NJ. Quatrefages, the BIOLOGIST and all
round scientist, states that in China the
exact period of the introduction of the
log is well known, viz, in the year 1112
B. o., which puts it at about the time
of the siege of Troy, 1900 years ago.
1t also appears, from the Chinese his
oric account, that the dog is a domes-
Heated jackal and that the jackal of to-
day is simply wild, savage dog-N. Y.

"FLIRTATION WALK"
She Saw 1t, But Her Visit Was Fiv
Years Too Late.

Sho Saw IL, But Her Visit was Five
Years Too Late.
One of the guests at the West Point
ball the other evening was a lieuten-
ants wife who had never been there
before Five years ago she married a
West Point man, and, from hearsay,
she was familiar with every stick and
stone about the place. But it was the
first time she had set foot upon West
Point soil. She was, therefore, highly
delighted at this first experience. Her
enthusiasm knew no bounds, and her
husband declared her to be the worst
West Point struck girl he had ever seen.
She was, moreover, determined to enjoy
the experience to the full. 'Now, Tom,' -
she said, after she had "taken in" all
the regulation sights, you must take
me to Filtration walk All my life
long have wanted to GO there Why,
I'd rather see it than all these other
things put together" The lieutenant,
being a dutiful husband, accordingly
piloted his wife toward Filtration
walk"-the sylvan retreat SO rich in
sentimental associations. But, oh,
what a disappointment" said the lieu
tenants wife in recounting the expert
ence later. Not the place itself, You
know, but the way l was hustled
through it. As matter of fact, 7 really
saw nothing of it, SO speedy was our
gait. Instead of the leisurely, romantic
loiter I had looked forward to we tore
along at mad pace over the sticks and
stones, my husband in the lead and
every now and then calling: Hurry
up, Polly over his shoulder. Wait,
Tom would cry, 4 just want to see
this shrub, or rest a minute on this
bench Not bit of it. Utterly deaf
to my entreaties and to all sentimental
associations, my prosaic better half
forged ahead as if he were taking part
in a walking match. We reached the
end of the walk, warm, tired and
breathless. Well. that's over re-
marked my unromantic spouse, as he
mopped his brow. Where do you want
to go now, Polly? Nowhere 1 re-
piled, stiff1y; L want to sit right down
and weep, because our visit to 'F'lirta-
ton walk was just five years too late!"

SWITZERS AROUSED.
Murder by Italians Causes Their
Wrath to Assume Danger
OuS prODOrtiOnS
Gus Proportions

Paris, Aug. IA serious riot has
occurred at Zurich between Swiss and
Italians. A dispute arose between a
number of persons of both nationali-
ties, and Swiss living in the Ans
sersihl quarter was attacked and
stabbed to death by the Italians. A
body of Swiss thereupon started in
pursuit of the murderers, followed by
a large crowd, who, entering the cafes
and places of amusement drove out
all the Italians, amid scenes of great
est uproar. The police were power
less, and many people were seriously
hurt. The feeling between Swiss and
Italians has been running high during
the last few weeks, and this outrage
appears to have been the eliminating
point. Disturbances were renewed
on an increased scale in the evening,
when an Infatuated crowd assembled
and committed serious excuses. The
police force was inadequate to cope
with the rioters, and at one time was
in great danger of being overpowered
by the mob. At the request of the
cantonal government, the military de-
partment gave orders for a detach-
ment of soldiers, provided with ball
cartridges, to be dispatched to the
scene of the disturbance. The mill
tary, after making seventy arrests,
succeeded in restoring order without
having found it necessary to use their
firearms.

MKINLEY BIKERS.
AN IMMENSE ARMY OF REPUBLI-
CAN WHEELMEN.
They Will be Organized Into Companies,
Regiments, Brigades and Drilled
a la Militaire.

Chicago, Aug. 1.-THE executive
committee of the National Wheel
mems Mckinley and Hobart club held
meeting in their rooms last night at
Republican headquarters. Hanna and
Dawes, of the Republican national
committee, were present and a line
of action was agreed upon.
From correspondence received from
other cities asking for information it
is certain that large masses will have
TO be handled and nothing but mill
itary discipline can accomplish this
and the national committee have
adopted the following plan: Compa-
MES of not more than so nor less than
80 shall be regularly captained. Eve
ry corps shall be organized into a
battalion and shall choose a major
who may select his aide and a stan
dard bearer. Every three batallions
shall form a regiment. For each reg
iment a colonel shall be chosen, who
shall select his aides and standard
bearers. The executive committee
shall choose brigade generals. 1t is
anticipated to have meeting at Chi.
cago of all the members at least dur
ing the campaign. For organization
in other cities and towns the execu-
tive committee urge that the above
line be followed far as possible. Any
person desiring to form branch in
his locality by addressing the national
secretary, Charles A. Whitaker, at
the national headquarters, Chicago,
will have forwarded to him the neces-
sary literature and instructions.

HOW MACEO WAS KILLED.
A Companion Who Was despatched
With His Blood Tells How
If Hammered.
1t Happened.

Philadelphia, Pa, Aug. 14.-Ser-
geant Lorenzo Guallaro, a Cuban who
for seventeen months has seen active
service in the revolutionary army, has
arrived in Philadelphia, and tells
some thrilling stories of military life
in the war-girt island. He was one
of an escort of nine men delegated to
accompany Captain Isadore Rodrigo
to this country, the captain bearing
secret dispatches to the Cuban Junta
in New York. The party had peril
Gus time in getting away from the
Island, setting out for San Domingo
in a leaky boat without its compile
ment of oars and with few provisions.
After describing the party's perilous
march to the coast and their embark
alton in the boat, Sergeant Guallaro
went on to say:
'The boat capsized and we were all
precipitated into the water, while nine
of us chung to its bottom and sides
expecting every minute to be drown
ed We dashed ourselves to the oars
and to two water casks and fioated in
that way for two days, and owing to
the smoothness and warmth of the
water not a man was lost. On the
third day after the boat capsized we
sighted a schooner which in answer to
our distress signals hove to and took
us aboard. We were landed at San
Domingo, where four of the nine men
forming the escort remained. i, with
four others. came with Captain Rod
rigo."
Continuing he said: 81 was bespat-
tered with the life-blood of General
Jose Maceo. was right at his side
when he fell and helped to carry him
from the field and bury his remains
at Songo.
"Maceo died bravely, giving orders
to his men. His back was turned to
the enemy. A shot suddenly rang out
and Maceo reeled and with cry fell
to the ground. The blood spurted
from a fearful wound in the back Of
his neck. The bullet went through
his neck coming out in front He
cried: L won the fight; am glad to
die! Cuba! Cuba?"
Sergeant Guallaro says there is no
truth in the statements frequently
made that there are dissensions be-
tween the whites and blacks in the
armies of Cuba.

it was claimed that this was due to

LII HUNG CHANG.
CHINATOWN THIRsTING FOR HIS
PIG TAIL AND GORE.
His Head Endangered at HOme-He is
Charged With Teachery During
the Japanese War.

San Francisco, Aug. Ali Hung
Chang, China's aged viceroy, is
threatened with deposition if not
death. A few days ago telegram
conveyed the intelligence that the
diplomat had found it necessary to
cut short his American tour. The mes
sage says he is threatened with po-
litical intrigues at home and after a
short stay in Washington he will hur-
~ home via Victoria. That Ii Hung
Chang should avoid San Francisco,
the western mecca of his race, seemed
strange, but it is explained. For seve-
raj days the dead walls of Chinatown
have been illuminated with bright
posters proclaiming the purpose Of a
new society, known as Hing Chung
Woey" and calling upon all patriotic
Cinnamon to acquaint themselves with
the principles of the new order and
lend it their moral, physical and fl
nancial support. The circular COM
plains in the bitterest tones of the in
fluence brought to bear upon the en-
peror by corrupt officials and refer
ence is made to the viceroy. He is
charged with traiterous conduct in
connection with the late war with ia
pan, and incidents cited at length to
show that Ii Hung Changes relations
traded their honor for Japan gold
during the war.
Members of the local Chinese colo
MES entertain a bitter hatred for Ii
Hung Chang. The present political
movement has increased this hatred
and those who pretend to know the
state of affairs in Chinatown state
that the viceroy would certainly be
killed if he came here. 1t is believed
that Ii Hung Chang has been fully
advised of this and his purpose to
avoid San Francisco for these rea-
sons are plausible.
