Queer Case Of Philadelphia Dog
With Two Owners.

WbkN We 0WH%t@s
Do dogs die of broken hearth That
Is a question which has frequently ex-
cited the interest of dog physicians
and OF particularly fond owners OF
canine pets, and with view to ans
wering that question TO particular
owners satisfaction post-mortem ex-
animation was held recently af the
dog hospital Of the University OF
Pennsylvania.
The animal in question was huge.
shaggy English mastiff, white In color,
and with a fond attachment for its
master. c. b. Mellor of West Phila-
delphia. It seems that a dispute
arose az to the dogs ownership, and
one day It was taken away to Haver-
ford by Andrew McPhillips, drover.
McPhiliips claimed to have owned the
dog two years. but Mellor claimed that
the brute was but is months old, as
the detention of the teeth would show
Melior then swore out warrant
charging the drover With larceny, and
the case was called before Magistrate
Jermon in the city hall. Mellors
counsel demanded that veterinarian
be brought into court to testify that
the dogs teeth proved to be less than
advised that a dogs age could not be
determined in that way. so the dog IL
self was ordered into court to act as
witness In the case. Court was then
adjourned till the dumb witness could
be summoned, and when the case was
called for trial again ii was found
that the dog had suddenly died. Nc
Phillips brought its body to the city
hall In a wagon. The magistrate then
quashed all legal proceedings on the
ground that both parties in the suit
seemed sincere in their claims to
ownership. There was evidently
mistake somewhere.
But MelIor did not like the idea OF
the dogs sudden death. and declared
that II his pet was dead 1t had died
OF a broken heart. caused by being
separated from him, its right master.
An autopsy, he ayerred, would prove
II.
McPhillips scornfully gave up the
body and Melior. with an officer of
the Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty to Animals. hauled the corpse
out to the university veterinary and
canine department. There DIR. ]. N.
Adams. the veterinarian. held a post
mortem examination to determine the
cause of the dogs death.
The dogs heart when cut into. was
found to be swelled almost to burst
Ing, and filed with dark. half-coagulat-
ed blood The head and neck veins
were swollen and blue, and In places
bloody serum had been forced
through the walls of the blood vessels
into the cavities of the body.-Phila-

WHITE OTTER SKIN DANCE.


About i00 Sac and FoN Indians were

Oklahoma, few days ago, dancing
the religious otter skin dance. This Is

Then when they are 80 tired they can

them the otter skin, aud They bury
their face IN it, While thus situated
they claim TO see all their dead rela-
tions and get glimpse Of the happy
hunting ground. The dance lasts
week
During the first two days Of the
dance only 46 Indians received the
otter skin. They are not given il un-
til the great spirit SO directs he lnedi-
cine man, and hence there is ~ ping
and wailing at the dance. &SxsS who
have prayed for the otter skin and not
yet received it think they ire lost
They take this rs an evil omen aud
think the great spirit is angry With
them.
