In the present day the British army
seems the only one in which dogs are
not trained eithe2 as spies, messengers
or to help the wounded. The Germans,
French, Austrians, Russians and ltal-
ians have all found them to be worth
Che trouble. The Germans have devoted
themselves chiefly to the training Of
iogs for carrying messages to and from
outposts and pickets and the main bodies

are taught to march without frisking

meanwhile with their forefeet planted
and barking to attract attention. They
are even harnessed to little handcarts,
such as we see them use in Belgian
and German towns, and can drag two
wounded men. The French, in their
wars in Tunis and Algiers, have used

A Colored Child That Could Talk When
Week Old.


Nashville is rapidly gaining reputa-
tion as a producer Of sensations The
country has scarcely ceased to discuss
Professor Bernard's successful trip In
the airship when another phenomenon,
equally as curious, though differing
vastly, is sprung.
Scarcely any one believed that navi-
eating the air was possible, and fewer
still will believe it possible for q
8-months-old child 10 talk. However,
such is the case, and any one can verify
the truthfulness of this statement with
very little trouble.
The parents Of the child are Richard
and frankie Cleveland, colored. living
at IL Short street, and the child has
been talking since it was week old.
Hundreds have visited the little wonder
and have left the house completely mys.
titled at what they have seen and heard.
The child is girl and differs only
from other babies in that it can talk as
plainly and be understood as distinctly
as a grown person. The voice. of course,
is naturally weak, but has none Of the
baby prattle about it. In addition to
the child's talking propensities it seems
to be possessed of superior intelligence
and gives voice 10 utterances most as
tonishing, coming as they do from one
SO young.
The Rev. q. w. Martin, a coloret
preacher who has church in the vi
cinity, and majority Of his fiocl
called at the house to convince them
selves of the truth of the rumors which
have been circulated concerning th'
child. The little one seemed to enjo,

rHE CASE OF Mr.. poRR.

1t is now more than a week since
the Mcdowell Recorder, Republi-
can newspaper in good standing,
gave currency to serious charges
against the character of Charles P.
Dorr, representative in Congress
from this district. The Recorders
charges were in the nature of ex-
PLANTATION and defense rather than
allegation, but were of so serious a
nature that it is impossible to pass
them over, to palliate or excuse them,
unless Mr.. Dorr can prove that in
reality he IS not the person involved
in the outrage. We will again set
forth the charge, together with the
explanation, as made by the Nc
Bowel! Recorder:
"For some time the report has
been quietly circulated that during
the summer Mr.. Dorr was guilty of
gross improperly, if not worse, on a
sleeping car, in his conduct toward
an unprotected young lady, whom
he CHANGED to meet travelling alone.
'sThe truth is that the young lady
in question was shamefully and
grievously insulted, and by man
who pretended to be Dorr, and that
the conductor of the car, when he
learned the facts, made the guilty
man get out of his berth and leave
the car, rightly saying that no such
backyard aud ruff an should be
allowed to ride in the same car with
decent people. 1t is also true that
the conductor thought at the time,
and we are informed still thinks,
that Mr.. Dorr WAS the party.
"The man guilty of this disgrace
full act was not Mr.. Dorr, himself,
but friend of his to whom he had
loaned his railroad pass, and who,
by representing himself to be the
party to whom the pass was issued,
subjected Mr.. Dorr to to this unjust
suspicion. This we understand, is
Mr.. DORIS explanation, and we in
sist that mere suspicion should not
outweigh a mans word in serious
matter like this. He is certainly
entitled to the benefit of the doubt "
We submit in all seriousness that
no man, be he public servant or pri-
vate citizen, can afford to rest under
an allegation of this kind. If Mr..
Dorr is not guilty, let him tell who
held his pass, 1t is mere shabby,
low down trick to lend railroad
pass. 1t is gross and brutal crime
that would bar the perpetrator from
association with gentlemen, to as
sault AN unprotected young woman
on railroad train. If Mr.. Doris
conduct was merely shabby, he
ought to come out and plead it. One
thing is certain, it will not do to ig-
more the general charge. Editorial
postmasters and candidates for post
masterships may attempt to gloss
over, or make little of it, but the
people of the State as whole will
not close their eyes to the gross
ofense charged against one of their
representatives in Congress
