has been the most successful in winning popular affection. From the rowdy, harem- -scarem favorte of the huntsman, he became the "paP' of the dude, the wag- gish, humorous companion of the boudoir and the faithful, trusted friend of the ordinary man.
 Deerhounds, from their activity, com poacher. All walks of life were the same to him; dry bread and water was just as succulent as cold chicken and crackers and cream. Men have devoted a lifetime to trying to perfect him, and there are hun dreds of others willing to do the same thing. Impudent vivacious, full of devil try, capable of mean action-unless kill ing a cat be one-a fox terrier is at once companion and source of the greatest amusement.
 Irish terriers, bigger and more powerful than their distant relative, the fox, have the same inclination for a rough and tum-
 be, the same sense of humor, but they are quicker to resent correction.
 Other terriers who are as companfona- ble and perferred by many, are the wag- ging, fiery little Scotchmen, the stolid, un- f1inching dandie dinmonts, the rowdy shag- gy-coated Skyes, and the Bedlingtons the pride of Newcastle pitmen.
 Of toys, pugs for a time held unbounded sway. Full of conceit, precocous and con-
 sequently they are as bright as a new penny. A sense of their own importance has often been mistaken for stupidity, but when they choose nothing is more alive to grasp a situation.
 The King Charles, Ruby, Blenheim and Prince Charles are all entitled to rank among the most beautiful of toys. The
 King Charles, with it's blue coat and rich
 tan shadings, and the Blenheim with its more delicate color of red and white, being
 the older breeds are worthy more consider ation. Their cousins, the Japanese span iels, or pugs, some authorities insist
 upon calling them, as toy dn the most
 pronounced sense is, with the exception of the Yorkshire terrier, more entitled to the name. Little delicate creatures of a few ounces in weight, 1t would seem that a dog in this boisterous, rugged climate would wither up like flower Without the constitutions of the other toy spanels, they must be treated more in the light of a hothouse plant, and essentially as an or nament.
 Not so with the Yorkshire or English terriers with their long, silky coats shining like furnished silver, sheded in parts with warm glow of deep gold These little
 frames, embedded in their beautiful coats,
 are impudent and fiery, and in defense of their mistress would tackel lion. With
 these descendants of the Skye ends the
 category of the more popular breeds.

ing. They are up early. too. and If any one is awake their how1s can be heard when the buglers sound "revielle' in the early morning.
 On April 25. the day of the fight between the American and Filipino armies at Bag bag, the dogs played an important part. The signal corps was back along the raii- road track stringlng wires, so that General Otis could be informed of the progress of the fight. Not a gun had been fired. Sud- denly a white dog went streaking along through the grass at the side of the rafl- road The signal men called to hdm, but he paid no attention; just kept his head due south and ran as fast his legs could carry him. How 1t was that he knew bull lets were going to fly over that place is more than can be told by dog experts. But he knew, for it was but a few minutes after he passed when shot rang out on the SUM air. It was signal for the beginning of the battle.
 More dogs came running past. Bullets knocked the dust in front of them, and struck in the bamboo trees over their heads. They could not run faster and they dared not stop. No one knows how far they ran. Perhaps until the din of battle was entirely lost to their sharp ears
 There was one dog wiser than all the rest. Had he had human intelligence he could not have found a safer place. We found him as we hurried along the railroad grade in the river lying in the deepest part of the ditch, covered on one side by the high embankment and protected on the other by grass covered mound. we thought he was dead he lay so still, and some passed on with their bodies bent, for the bullets still whistled in the air, though the enemy had been routed and was on the retreat. I looked closer The dogs eyes were wide open. But when he was spoken to he only winked, never stirring muscle: The look which came into his eyes asked as plainly as human tongue could speak that he be left alone. He was left behind this wise dog was, but he saw the charge of the Kansas volunteers-they rushed past him. He heard the shrapnel explode ana the bullets cut the air But he was saIe' and knew it.
 That night he came to the camp timloiy, and some one threw him meat. So he grew braver and followed the army on It's ao- vance to Calumpit. Where he was during this fight no one seems to know, put ne came to us the night after and lay down near where a group of officers were taiklhs'

TWO DOGS OF
 HIGH DECREE
One the Biggest Dog in the Word the Other is the Smallest and Both Belong to the Fine Kennels of
 j.. Pierpon Morgan

J. Pierpont Morgan, besides dallying in stocks and influencing railroad deals
 takes a prominent part in the raising Of full blooded dogs, and at his kennels on the Hudson river he has the finest assort- ment of high bred dogs in the United States, probably in the world. Last spring there was an epidemic of poisoning, hum dreds of valuable dogs disappeared or were found dead along the Hudson, where 1t Is lined with fine estates. One morning ten of the finest of the Morgan dogs were stretched stiff and stark within their en- closures. That night a burglar alarm sys
 tenn extended over the entire estate. A nttle later MT. Morgan's most valuable pug engaged in a single combat with a neighbor's prize cat The dog was so seri- ously injured that he died.
 But there are other stories to be told of the Morgan kennels. One is of the possess sion of a very fine breed of Great Danes of enormous size. Contrary to most high bred dogs the Morgan Danes are strong and gentle. They are a peculiar grey and

The efforts Of the fire underwriters.
or. more properly speaking. the insur-
ance trust Of the Pacific coast, to con-
vince the people OF Seattle that they are
being treated with unusual considera-
ton by the trust If the present excessive
rates are allowed to stand without IN
crease. has caused the Post-Intelii-
gencer to make some comparisons be-
tween the ratio OF fire losses TO pre-
miums collected in Washington and
the great states of the East and Middle
West
In this state in 1885 the ratio OF losses
to premiums was Az per cent: Massa-
chusetts, for the same year. sos, and
the average for the six Eastern states,
SIS per cent. New York. sos per cent. !:
Pennsylvania. Sal per cent, and the
average for the Middle Atlantic states.
5s.5 per cent: Ohio. 6oS per cent: Ill
inois, s7.3 per cent. and the average
for the Mississippi valley and Lake
states. 57.2 per cent.
The figures herein given are taken
from insurance publications and are
authoritative They include twenty
eight states and the District of Column
bia. and conclusiveiy prove that the fire
risks In this state are less than In any
of the great states named and less
than the average of any of the groups
! named. Further. they conciusively
prove that the placing Of this state In
the category OF pioneer communities,
where the risk is great and the rate
correspondingiy high. is an unjust dis
| elimination for which no reasonable
excuse can be offered
| The Post-Inteliigencer has been I'M
able thus far to obtain the rates charg-
ed by underwriters In the states with
| which the comparison is made. but IL
| challenges Mr.. Mackenzie or any other
| insurance representative to produce
| them and show by them that the peo-
| pie Of this state are not paying unduly
high rates. as has been declared by the
/ Pust-Inselligcncer.
| The fire losses In this state for the six
months ending June 80 last were $751;
| sss. "a against s3is,sle for the CORE
| spending period last year. and this city
! bears its proportionate share in this

which VIII largely increase the annual
/ expenditure for the fire department. be-
