CHEWED A DIAMOND.
A Pug Dog hanEled the Gem Until IL.
Was Necessary to Have 1t O.,
% Recut.

Allegheny, Pa, has produced sthe
champion dog story of the season. It
il a champion dog because it chewed
the corner off diamond stud. Peter
Donaldson, a Second'ward saloonkeep-
er, is little sore over the loss on his
diamond, for it was damaged SO that
it had to be recut; but he cant help
feeling proud of pug dog ath such
powers in its jaws, saysthe Pittsburgh
Press.
The story is told by August Loeb, a
jeweler on Federal street, Allegheny.
Donaldson walked into his store one
day lately with "a diamond that he
wished reset. Mr.. Ioch took the stone,
and Oh examining it found it was
cracked. He told Donaldson, who gave
the following explanation:
A few days ago Donaldson left his
diamond stud, a beautiful two-carat
gem. on the dresser and went into an
adjoining room. When he came back
he noticed his pet dog chewing some
thing and saw that his diamond was
missing. Upon investigation he found
the dog had got it and ecrushed the
mounting out of shape. After some
time he succeeded in taking the dia-
mond out of the dogs mouth, and at
his earliest convenience started to have
it reset.
Mr.. Loeb then examined more close
ly and discovered the dog had bitten
a piece from the stone and damaged it
badly. Donaldson was certain the
stone was perfect before the dog got
it in his mouth. He could scarcely
credit the jewelers. statement until
he saw it through a magnifying glass.
Telling of the matter the other morn
ing, Mr.. Loeb said: 81 have been in the
jewelry business for 35 years, and it
WAS the first time l ever heard of such
a case. The diamond was beauty and
to all appearances as hard as the Or
dinary diamond. One corner. however,
about one-fortieth of carat. had been
bitten off by the dog. The dog that can
bite pieces off diamond is a wonder
The stone had to be recut and set,
and that cost fair sum.
There is great moral in this case,
too. 1t demonstrates the fact that a
pug dog has more power in his Jaws
than the average person imagines. and
the moral is that people should keep
their gems out of their pets reach.
The news of Donaldson's dog chew
ing up diamond is widespread in AL
1, 10
the dog that has eclipsed all his canine
friends. The case is being talked about
everywhere, and all claim that Alleg
heny leads the country with the sensa-
ton.

an interesting piece Of ancient history.
For centuries Pharsala, in Southern
Thessaly, has been regarded as the
scene of the famous defeat of Pompey,
which gave the dominion Of the world
into the hands of Caesar. According,
however, to the Messenger" and the
journal d'Athenes," Capt. Dousmais,
of the Greek Engineers, after an ex-
haustiye study of the ancient battle
fields of Thessaly, affirms that beyond
question the battle between Pompey
and Caesar was not fought at Phar-
sala, but near the modern Karditza,
which is about so miles to the north,
west.
