the arrival Of the gray old gull for
now these tweuty-four years, and if he
survives till another season his depart

During all these years Dick has
never failed to make his appearance

THEENING POINTER DOG,

Pointer dogs can always be trained
to steal. Many Of them are natural
tiievt, without training, and any OF
the species can be taught. There is a
dog Of this kind in northwest Wash
inston. He viii pick up anything he
can find around yard or outside Of a
stora, bat his speciality is ladies
pocNetboohs and handbags. When he
sees one Of these, he grabs il and
runs, always succeeding IN getting
otlt Of sight before he can be captured
or followed. No owner has ever been
seen, hence 10 complaints have been
made al police headquarters but there
l., bat little doHbt, f it were possible
to follow the animal, that it would be
found that he has been carefully
trained rs Il purse snatcher and thai
he takes his booty home to his master.
H. seems to be aware that he is doing
wrong, jumping fences and dodging
around houses when running away.
