il happened. Rutherford and Delaney
were miners and each man owned a fine
bull terrier. The dogs had never got to-

under a good deal of restraint to hold them
apart. Whenever Delaney and Ruther-
ford happened along into the same
place with their dogs. the dogs had to be
tied a sufficient distance apart to prevent
them from chewing each other into mince-
meat.
RUTHERFORD and Delaney came into Bel
knap's place few minutes apart one
afternoon in the spring of 92 with the bull
terrier trailing after them. Delaney, who
was the fiFvt to arrive with his dog, chain
ed the dog at the rear of the saloon, and

Rutherford,s bull terrier was tethered

Belknop himself went to where Delaney's
dog was chained. Then Belknap gave
whistle and the two dogs were unleashed
at the same instant. They were at each

lightning and it was funny to see how
quick the two men,, just on the point of
cutting each other all to pieces, dropped
their knives to watch the performance of
their dogs. They seemed to forget all
about fighting with the first yelp of the
canine battle, and for ten minutes they
stood over those fighting dogs and made
bets with each other on the outcome. De-
laney's dog, after fifteen minutes, killed
Rutherford's bull terrier.

equal to the enormous sum of &C. SIS, ,S22, ,OOO

The Upset in Austria,

1t is evident from the proceedings
in the Austrian reichsrath that the
racial fcrment so long latent in the
politics of that patched up empire has
begun to work again with ominous
rapidity. The troubles of which Amer
leans have recently been reading are
asCrihed in their immediate significance
to the enactment of Il law making the
Czech language coordinate with the
German language in Bohemia. This
angered the German element and forced
a parliamentary crisis. But back
of the preteXt of course is the fact that
AuStra-HunGary is a mere hodge
podgc Of unassimilated and largely an
taSonistic racial stocks, with Pole and
Czech and Slav and Magyar contend
ing one with the other and all against
the Germans, the Jews, the Italians,
the Tyrolese and the Montcnegrins.
into the details of the situation in
Austria we lack the knowledge to en-
ter. Those familiar with them assert
that the probabilities point to serious
consequences, perhaps involving the
perpetuity Of the Hapsburg dynasty
and very certain, unless speedily COM
posed, to end in the dismemberment of
the present Austrian empire and it's
reorganization ON new lines. That in
the peculiar adjustment which now OBJ
tains in the international relations of
Europe such a contingency carries with
il a grave hazard of continental peace
or war is readily credible after what
the world has seen in the Armenian
affair. So that, from the apparently
small matter as to whether contracts,
checks and business paper would be
valid in Bohemia if written in either
of two languages we have a develop
ment in race passion which already
menaces the worlds equilibrium and
may at any MON ent deluge Europe
with blood.
Americans, viewing this scene though
il be but dimly from afar, can derive
lesson from it most timely at this
moment. We, too, have race problems;
and we have been in recent years by
no means eager to solve them. We
also have had attempts TO wedge into
legality in school curriculums foreign
tongues, thus perhaps paving the way
for wider authorization of foreign
speech and usages: and we have had
the cultivation for political purposes
of the natural clannishness OF alien
races set down in a new environment.

WHAT CONGRESS WON'T Do.

Rochester Democrat and Chronicle.
1t must always remain with congress
to define the status of people battling for
liberty. More than a year ago congress
declared that the Cuban patriots were en-
titled to the rights of bellgercnts, and
so far as we can observe, the president
through Minister Woodford, has been in
ssting upon those rights. General Blanco
has ordered that prisoners of war be
treated as such, and that the wounded
be cared for instead of being slain in
their cots. Should congress at it's next
session find that the conflict will not
cease because of Spain's offers or the eff
forts of diplomacy, it may define the
status of the Cuban republic as indie
pendent Such definition would not be a
war resolution. One thing congress will
not do; it will not tolerate "A practical al
lance with Spain to coerce the patriots
in arms, struggling for liberty. If our
diplomacy squints in that direction, there
will be an explosion when congress
meets.
