Career of Noble Newfoundland in the Days That Tried
Mems Souls

sion about to be related, I had reached
home on another visit. on Sunday
evening, very tired from my long march
Mother told me the troops had just
raided the country a few days before
and were not likely to be about soon,
and j could get Il good rest, and have
a good time, so / retired early ana
was soon in the blissful land of dreams,
no doubt filled with the delightful pros
pect of seeing my best girl on the next
day, but trouble was brewing. About
three o'clock in the morning l was
startled from my slumbers. not By the
blast Of bugle or rattle of the long roll,
but my mother was shaking me, saying:
'Get up my son quickly; the house is
surrounded and YOU will be captured IN
less secreted." She arranged my bed ~
look as ii no one had used it. and took
me to her room below and hid me in
closet concealed by the head Of her bed.
Meanwhile the soldiers were rapping for
admittance. AS soon as mother dressed
they were admitted, to her room first.
They searched the whole house but failed
to find me, and left. / remained in
my hiding place until daylight revealed
the certainty Of their absence. |
had, for the first time, failed in his
vigils, and was told that the soldiers
entered the premises by stealth, and the
dog did not discover them in time to
bark, but he did run to the window OF
my mothers bed room, and reared upon
the side of the house, and with his
paws scratched and pounded until an
swered by my mother, who knowing
at once, what it all meant proceeded to
hide me as already stated. Thus 10y
this faithful dog | was saved from the
horrors of prison-life and saw my sweet
heart next day.
Now reader, / have given but n few
of the incidents in Brunos life, but
think from what is told you will agree
with me- that he was q wonderful ami
NAL and faithful friend. Bruno lived
to ripe old age. In his declining years
he received the tenderest care, and at
the close of his eventful life was laid
TO rest as one of the heroes of the Civil
War.

Biblical Repartee.
(Wlashingto Post.)

Champ Clark, of Missouri, has a fad.
He collects every story which has Bib
lical quotation as its chief point. and for
years has made study Of the effect
which the Bible has had upon law and
custom. He has prepared a lecture
in which all this information is interest
ingly presented.
Il think the best instance of crushing
retort | ever heard said Mr.. Clark.
yesterday, was based on the use of two
quotations from Scripture Tom Ben
ton and "a man nam2d Green were politi-
cal rivals. Benton would not agree 10 n
joint debate, but Gre N used to follow
him around and take the stump to adj
dress the crowd after Benton had finish
ed. One day Green took occasion to
repeat some ugly charges against Ben
toms honesty. When he had conclude!
Benton turned to depart without reply
ing. With apparentlg a second thought,
however, he halted ana faced Green.
SIT is written said he, in deep dra-
matte tone of voice. 'Th0u shalt not
bear false witness
1T is also written instantly replied
Green, 'Thou shalt not steal"
