TESTING SHEEP DOGS.
Rare Intelligence and Sagacity Dis
played by the Animals.


How very clever! Really WONDERFUL
The exclama tons came from the lips of
a weIl-known woman of title as she
watched the performance of Bob. the Ian
cashire sheep dog, at Tring Park And,
indeed, it is no exaggeration to say that
the intelligence and sagacity displayed by
these animals are astonishing and must
be seen 10 be believed. The course at
Tring is some 500 yards long. and on an
eminence az one end of il were the Judge.
the stewards and the master Of the dog
While at the other stood "a van. from
which the sheep We're released three az
a time, as required. They were Welsh or
Scotch breeds well known for their run
ming powers. The sheep being ready. the
master gives the sigma, and away goes
the deg, who has the sheep in sight when
he starts, but soon loses his view OF them
rs he descends the hin This makes no
difference, tor he obeys his masters wills
tie, and stops TO see The signal which is
given by wave of the hand to The right
or the left, as required. In a few min
>utes he has rounded the sheep and is
bringing them at a rafting pace down the
course 60 the first obstacle, an opening in
some hurdles This is fairy easy as the
hurdles extend some distance on each
side, but having passed il The sheep are
now 10 De driven through obstacle No. ?,
consisting of parallel hurdles Here the
master is allowed 10 assist the dog, and
together they bring the sheep up to the
mark and endeavor 10 get them through,
but the animals show a decided prefer
ence for the outside, and il is only after
repeated efforts that the hurdles are sue
cessfully negotiated, The third obstacle
consists of hurdles paced in the shape "
through which the dog must drive them
without assistance, the shepherd giving
his orders by voice and gesture, and here
the dog displayed great sagacity round
lng the sheep time after time, bringing
them closer to the goal each time, finally
craving to within a few inches and urg-
ing them through the opening-his sue
cess being greeted by the spectators with
rounds of applause, which the shepherd
tried TO quiet, as it may brighten the
sheep. which have still to be passed
through narrow opening in the final pen
and here, in one case, there was a failure,
for the shepherd got two animals in. but
the third passed round the outside, aud.
having lost touch with It's fellows, made
off down the park and was lost. 1.-The
subsequent proceedings interesting him no
more" Nine dogs competed, the same OPP
cratic being performed each time, with
fresh sheep.

white, having only very light tint of
pink. Out of the center of this comes a
red rose, perfectly distinct but quite
small. This is a very uncommon freak of
nature, and of course is no species. but
simply a freak.

Waynesboro True Citizen: j. V. Bonnell
shows us the shell of a very large hen
egg that contained two yolks. In length
it measures 312 inches and is exactly six
inches in circumference, measured by the
square. One curious thing about it is that
it had a seam in the center around it,
which if patented by any hen would bring
her fortune. This seam saves the trou-
bic of Breaking the shell with a knife for
when 1t was desired to open it, a little
pressure and il parted in the middle CEN
trally all around as il done by machinery.
Mayor w. 7. Livingston of Newton is
an expert in raising fruits of all kinds
His orchard is small, but is a collection
of choice fruit trees, which Mr. Living
ston has spared no pains or expense to
procure. He has on hand plants of the
colorless blackberry, blackberry that is
not black. 1t is a luscious berry of rich
creamy hue with just the faintest dash
of olive to relieve il. Mr.. Livingston de-
serves the rank of discoverer of this won
derful berry. 1t is known in that sec
ton, but its splendid development in size,
color and taste is due to the Mayor. 1t
retains the flavor of the true old-feld
blackberry, but is much larger, sweeter
and prolific.
