will do at bidding the required commits
sion, often over long stretches of ground,
the trainers being invisible fruin the
direct route of transit.
The exercises just described are but
preliminary to teaching the dog the use
OF the report pouch, which is one OF his
| most important duties In his military
| career. The pouch is shown to the dog,
o piece OF paper is put in the pouch, and
the dogs attention called to ~, and he Is
6hen sent to the assistant, who takes the
paper from the pouch, and, by petting
the dog, shows him that he has performed
Gnat which was required of him. The
distances are gradually Increased, and
tlie WORK Is continued in such Way that
the dog passes from master to assistant
oy Jhe reverse of road known to ghim.
Little influence can be exercised on the
speed OF a dog, and great care Is taken to
preserve his pleasure in the WORK, and
6hatshe be not oyerworked Or bored.
1t now remains to practice traversiug
great distance by tho shortest route, and
the work is done over ground where the
view IS obsti uct9d. The assistant lead
Ing the dog by the leash, walks away
from the conductor. moving in various
directions, and sends the dog back ITO his
master with the proper word of COM
mand. Alter some attempts to follow the
scent, the dog will seleoE the shortest
|
means of making him understand how to
take cross cuts.
The canine Mercury is also habituated
to overcoming obstacles of terrain and
art. avoiding water COURSES of some
width, which necessitates particular
training in swimming, not very difficult
for most dogs. When Tray has gained
much self-confdenoe, and is thorough in
his previous work, the exercises are held
In frequented places, in villages, and in
the dark. He easily becomes aocus-
toned to ring, since, as soon as he is per-
mitted to leave the barracks, he is taken
along to the target ranges, and his first
service may consist in maintaining oom-
mnnication between the firing stand and
the markers.
The final test of his training consists in
the dog performing his work in the same
reliable manner when led by some one
not his instructor. The use of an assis-
tant latterly has made it O lear to the dog
that he Is not to obey his master alone,
and If the previous trainer is replaced by
some one else, the latter learns the CHAR
acter OF the dog and the method by which
he has been trained, that he may follow
up the training in the same way. II,
under such circumstances, the work of
the dog remains reliable he is considered
trained for employment in the service

HAY FIRE WORKS.
One Was Full of Burning Grass at Calais.

Calais, August A very calm eve
ming prevented what threatened to be a
disastrous fire in Calais, Monday. About
O'Clock Monday evening the stable be-
longing to Mr.. George CulIerton on Bel
more street was found to be on fire and
in short time two adjacent barns a
she'd and the residence OF Mr.. Cullerton
were all in flames. The stable contained
hay and large punches of this hay, all
a flame, rose high in the air, but happily
there was no wind to carry the burning
brands to any distance The fire was
checked before Mr.. Cullerton's residence
was completely destroyed. but what fire
didn't consume water greatly damaged.
The loss was over $4,000 and was partly
covered by insurance.
