EFFECT OF MUZZLES,
Some of the Changes Caused Among
the London Dogs.

The muzzling order has now been so long
in operation that one is able to See its
practical results, at all events SO far as
London is concerned. They are really
very remarkable, especially from a point
OF view not likely to be immediateiy y taken.
The supremacy of the fox terrier is gone
One misses the little vivid, white spots that
moved about so quickly and made streets
and thoroughfares gay, and it must be ;id-
mitted, noisy. Most OF these dogs were
mongrels, and, being of no appreciable
value and probably of no clearly defined
ownership, they passed quickly III a whole
sale way into the lethal chambers. London
is rid of them, but at all our watering
places and at all our garrison towns the
white terrier with the old MARKINGS is
still in the ascendancy.
on the other hand, here in town we have
the Irish and the Scotch. These are AS yet
pretty pure. They keep rather to them
selves, after the manner of the provincials,
but in a couple OF years mongrelism will
assert itself and London will be overr,in.
AS it is, the hardy little Aberdeen, with
his long body, short legs and nondescript
markings Of black and gray and mustard,
holds the street, and the Irish terrier loafs
about, social and easy going.
Both are excellent in their own way,
but for all that one misses the sharp, quick
vitality OF the fox terrier. Even as m on
grel, he seemed 10 concentrate i'll his active
little body all doggy qualities, especially
fidelity and hatred of cats.

DEFEATED BY VIRGINIANS.
GaIlaudet Lost by the Narrowest
Kind of Score.

The Gallaudets met defeat yesterday at
Cha rIott sville in their game with the
University OF Virginia by the small score
OF to o. The silent players gave the
Southern champions one of the hottest
fights they have ever had, and their game
was as clean and pretty an exhibition as
was ever given in Charlottesville
Virginia's IS sole touchdown was made
from a beautiful sixty-yard run OF Grover
around right end, Iioxton kicking goal
Gallaudet's defensive work was splendid
and her interference ran finely. In fact
the Gallaudets Outplayed the Virginians,
and IL was only hard luck that kept them
from winning. Twice did they have the
pigskin within Virginia's five and ten
yard lines. but could not make the coveted
touchdowns.
Rosson and Brockhagen for Gallaudet
distinguished themselves by their splendid
work. The Gallaudets, although they lost,
put up game. of which any team might
he proud, and their supporters have high
hopes that the team VIII beat Columbian
College on Thanksgiving Day.
