A MILITARY DOG

One of the most popular characters on the rock of Gibraltar is no more. "Smiler," for that was the name of the garrison guard-roon1 dog, broke his leg so badly through slipping on rock that he had to be shot to put him out of his agony The little dog was at home in all the guard-rooms on the frontier, and would sometimes patronize one, some times another. Snailer was great pet both with officers and men. He consti- tuted himself an extra sentry, kept on sentry go" all through the night, and could hear the field officer of the day approaching long before the human sen- try could. He always attended guard- mounting parade, and there selected the guard that he would favor with his presence for the next twenty-four hours. London Telegraph.

SEVENTEENTH CENTURY SUBMA-
 RINE SHIP

We have heard so much recently con- cerning submarine vessels, and the ex- periments made by various naval pow CTS, that we are apt to consider the boat which sails beneath the sea as one of the inventions of the century, sug- gested perhaps by the fertile imagina- ton of Jules Verne. As matter of fact there is nothing new about the idea, for as long ago as the year 1641 the scientist John Wilkins, Lord Bishop of Chester, published treatise "con- corning the possibility of Framing an Ark for submarine navigators," in Ark for submarine navigations," in conveniences of such contrivance are discussed" An ancient writer, Mersen- nus by name, had already largely and pleasantly descanted upon such sub ject, and said that such a contrivance is feasible and maybe affected is beyond all Question, because it hath been al Cornelius Dreble."

 ''The iRue das Frores-"Stteet of athe Flowers probably so called because there are no flowers in it--is interesting on account of its display of the gold work for which Oporto Is famous. It appears not only in the windows, or every shop, but on the persons ot the brawny and bawling fish-women. This fantastically-g -garbed class of Portugese citizens are everywhere greatly in eVlT dence. They may often go dinnerless and supperless to bed, but none are so poor as to lack enormous golden ear rings and filagree necklace and heavy rings on every digit, to say nothing or pins and bracelets and buttons galore.
