SOME ROYAL DOGS.


 Nearly All the Sovereigns of Europe Are
 Fond of Canine Pets.
 Nearly every one of the soyereigna of Europe, it appears, has one or more pet dogs The collies of Queen Victoria, the fox terriers of Princess Beatrice, with Jock as prime fayorite, are known at least by hearsay to every body.
 The emperor of Russia is also great lover of dogs. A London paper reports that he is always accompanied ill his walks by couple of fine Danish hounds. whose strength and vigilance their master considers his best safe guard. The grave czar is often seen playing with these monster pets. He himself has taught them their tricks and they are nearly always about him.
 The king of Greece shares the czar' s taste for the Danish hounds, which are as intelligent as they are strong, and which, with hardly bark to announce their intentions, will fly at the throat of any one whom their master may point out to them in case of need. When the empress of Austria goes on her long walks or rides, several pet dogs always accompany her But per haps the most widely known of all the royal dogs" of the present day is Black. the pet dog of the Russian Grand Duke Alexis.
 Black is sportsman's dog, of no very aristocratic breed. Indeed, if the truth must be told, he is member of the race of mongrels which the fisher men in the south of France take out to sea, employing them to recapture any willy fish that may fall through the meshes of their nets or slip suddenly back into it's element after it has been once landed on board the barge. Black is still rejoicing in the days of his youth, but his record, not only as g common fisherman but as fisher oi men, '' is already great, for he has saved no fewer than six persons from a watery grave.
 Some three or four years ago ths Grand Duke Alexis was staying al Biarritz. One stormy night he went ou' on the cliff to get view of the angry sea. A boat was just being wrecked be low. and he saw dog dashing witt angry growls and barks into the water and bringing to land. one by one. three drowning men, while the crowd cheeret the brave mongrel to the echo Int grand duke approached to caress th' dog. and the animals master theI offered Black to him, refusing to aeeep any payment-St. Louis Pest Dispatch

THE Arkansas Democrat makes the following comments, which are very true and correct, upon the in- creased assessment of railroad property in this state:
 "The increased assessment of rail road property in this State as com pared with the assessment of last year is an evidence of better out look. We have DO doubt that the rail road property of the State has increased in value since last year, and the statement prepared by the State Assessment Board shows an increase of mileage. The railroads pay large per cent of the taxes necessary to run the State Govern ment and every new mile of road lessens the taxation borne by the people. 1t is, therefore, matter of revenue to the State as well as convenience to it's citizens to have more railroads. It is short sight ed policy that fails to encourage railroad building, and the Legisla- ture that offers inducements accep- table to railroad builders is the best friend to the people and to the State. ,"

IT may be astonishing to state it.,
 but, nevertheless 1t is fact, that the wealthiest class in the United States is vastly richer than the wealthiest class in Great Britain. According

 come of the wealtliest hundred Englishmen is given at s4oO, ,O0O, while that of the richest one-hundred Americans is given at not less than sl 200, 900. and probably exceeds S1,- 500, 900.

 THE Americoa Monthly Rtvie,o..of Repieaes has good deal to say about the Andrews incident and Brown Universlty--not so much, as the edi- tor remarks, on account of the per sonal interests involved in the case as because of the far-reaching prin- ciples affecting academic life and lib ertyswhich have become matters au issue. A fair-minded and lualclous estimate of President Andrews serv- ices to Brown is given by a writer fully conversant with the facts, and the protest of the faculty is printed in full. The editorial comments on the awkwardness and needlessness Of the situation are piquant and to the point.

MAY BE GEORGE SPENCER.
Boston Police Onicials Specializing In Re
gard to John Reed.

Boston, Dec. 3l.-In connection with
the cases against John Reed, the al
legged bunco man, who has been several
times arrested within the last few days
on charges Of swindling, a local paper
says that a Cambridge man who went
bonds for Reed says there is 100000
behind Reed to secure his freedom from
the charges pending against him. The
suggestion is that there is a regular
syndicate back of him, which is willing
to put up any amount of money rather
than have its operations exposed.
1t is now believed by officers who
have had much to do with the case that
Reeds real name is George Spencer.
full description of Spencer has just been
received here from the west, and ii is
said TO fit Reed to a dot. Spencer has
been indicted in seventeen states and
has, with his associates, separated
more than 900 from it's unwary
owners. Spencer is known to have had
as his pal in many of his operations

NOT EVEN HORSE SENSE.
diotic Action of Gerry Society Onicer In
New York.

New York, Dec. 3l.-Madeline, the g.
year-old daughter of Thomas A. Edi-
son, the inventor, was to appear In
charity performance at Carnegie Ly-
eeum, but the Gerry society officers in
terfered. They informed the managers
of the entertainment that Miss Edison
would not be allowed to appear, so her
part was taken by an older girl. The
second half of the programme consisted
of a performance OF THE Pied Piper OF
Hamlin," in which parts were taken by
more than one hundred children. Chorus
songs and elaborate tableaux made up
the greater part of the performance.
Mr.. Edson's daughter was to have ap-
peared in what was Seally little more
than a walking partSonly few dane
ing steps being intermingled.
The Gerry society agents heard that
little Miss Edison was TO perform a
dance and word was sent to Carl Mar
wig, the dancing master, who was In
| charge of the affair. that she would
not be allowed TO appear He called on
| the Gerry society officers and explained
| to them that the affair was to be moth
| ing more than a children's performance
| for the benefit OF charity, but the Ger
| ry agents persisted in their refusal 70
| allow Miss Edison to appear. In addi-
ton they instructed Marwig not to per-
| NIT Miss Flezin, a 14-year-old girl, to
appear in a gavotte. The managers OF
the entertainment were incensed when
they learned of the action OF the Gerry
agents, as they had taken special care
to obtain Mr.. Edison's consent to the
appearance of his daughter in the tab
| leaux.
At the rooms of the Gerry society the
only explanation of the action vouch'
safed was that the proposed dancing o
Edisons daughter was clearly contrar,
to law. Mr.. Edison took the matte
good -naturedly. He said;
my opinion is that the Gerry SO
ciety probably is a good and necessar,
institution, but its agents do not al
ways use horse sense, as II appear
in this case"
Mrs. Edison said. "Commodor
| Gerry's action was wholly uncalled 10

there could be anything demoralizin
/, l certainly should not have let IN
