HIS JUDGMENT WAS WRONG.
Hound that Tried to Whip All the
Dogs in the NeiRhborhood.

Hound that Tried to Whip All the
Dogs in the NeiRhborhood.
Sooner was a waif, or, more correct
ly speaking, a soldier of fortune. No
one knew his antecedents. He had
dragged himself into Hogarth's yard
one day, worn out and exhausted after
long run on the trail of buck. There
was no telling how far he had come, as
a day, and keep it up for two or three
days. But he had driven the buck into
the lake, and the Hogarth boys had
killed it; therefore they treated the dog
well, and as he liked the place he re-
manned and became one of the house
hold.
The time Sooner discovered he had
fighting blood in his veins marked an
epoch in his life. He overestimated his
ability, it is true, and suffered in con-
sequence. A new settler moved into
that part of the country and estab-
lishee himself about six or seven miles
from Hogarth's. Regarding the size
of his family, he was far behind Ho-
garth, but when it came to dogs it was
were represented in his collection, but
the "yaller dog predominated.
Sooner undertook to clean out the
entire crowd alone and unaided. 1t
was something of an undertaking, and
he spent six out of seven days in the
hospital while the war was on.
''Ie doesn't seem to be much Of a
fighter" 1 remarked to Hogarth one
day when the subject was under dis
cussion.
"Oh, he kin fight all right" Hogarth
replied; ''it's his Judgment what's
wrong. Sooner's fust-rate fighter,
but he's dern poor jedge of dorgs."
He was game though, and stuck at
lit until he had conquered each one of
the new dogs in turn, with the excep-
ftfon of huge brindle bulldog. With
this dog he employed strategy. He
bowed down before him and addressed
him with smooth words and made
friends with him, and then one day he
enticed-him over to his own home, and
all the dogs there pitched on the brin-
die bull and half killed him. Sooner
became more blase than ever after this
achievement. 1t so plainly showed his
superiority to all the rest of dog crea-
ton.
-. This fighting trait was unusual in a
hound for as a rule they are peace
ably inclined. 1t served to accentuate
the fact that Sooner was not like other
dogs

The Mermaid was the name of a IA
nous London tavern frequented by
noted literary men and actors during
the reign of Queen Elizabeth. All the
wit and talent of the time assembled
there for convivial enjoyment. Au-
thors have made it the scene of great
mind combats between such men as
Shakespeare. Ben Jonson, Beaumont,
Fletcher. Selden. Carew, Dome and
others of reverential memory. 1t was
the gathering place of the celebrated
Mermaid club, the origin of which is
ascribed to Sir Walter Raleigh. The
Mermaid tavern was located in Bread
street and was handily reached from
three thoroughfares, so that it has been
often referred to in various ways. The
Mermaid in Bread street, the Mermaid
in Friday street and the Mermaid in
Cheap street were, however, all one
and the same. 1t was the nearest to
Bread street. The Mermaid was de-
stroyed in the great London fire. There
were other Mermaid taverns, one in
Cheapside and another in Cornhill, but
they had no such associations as chung
to that of Bread street.

O,Conneu and Massey.

Laughter has been fatal to at least
one bill in the house of commons. In
the days of O'Connell Thomas Massey,
who was a sworn foe to everything
that suggested popery. introduced a
bill to abolish the suffix mas" from all
words in our language and to substi-
tute tide" thus converting Christ
mas" into "Christtide," and so on.
When he had ended his Introductory
speech. O'Connell got up and said:
''Since the honorable member has such
an insuperable objection to the word
mas why does he not set a good ex-
ample by anglicizing his own name I
In that case we should be quite willing
to speak of him as Thotlde Tidey."
The house rolled with appreciative
laughter, and Mr.. Massey never recov-
cred sufficient courage to speak of tho
bill again.

Some years ago Colonel Crisp was in

Well, rather! Running his fingers

harangue he became very warm and
asked that some water be provided In
compliance with the request diminu-

Successful Long-Distance Experiment

successful Long Distance Experiment
by Honolulu Amateur.
One OF the queerest freaks of hypnot-
ic influence ever recorded is reported
from Honolulu, where, according to the
Pacific Commercial Advertiser, a sub
1ect was put to sleep by a hypnotist
who was several blocks away. j. E.
Davis plays a typewriter in the office
of the attorney general at Honolulu.
lie is an amateur musician and prom
inent member of the Triangle club,
which is allied with the Young Mems
Christian Association. He is an ardent
student of hypnotism.
One evening recently number of per-
sons gathered in the New England
bakery to see the telephone experiment.
A youth of p years who had been OPP
Grated on by Davis several times took
the telephone receiver in his hand while
Davis spoke to him from an instrument
in the Judd building, several blocks dis
tant. A card over the telephone in the,
bakery had written on it the name of
Thomas Williams. AS seen and heard
from the Judd building the following
subject-who being we'll known here
does not want his name mentioned-to
take the card in his hand.
What is the name on the card?" he
asked.
Then he said: "It's growing dim. The
letters are blurred. You can't see them
well. Your eyes are closing. You are
getting sleepy. You want to sit down.
You are going fast. See, there you
are"
Those in the bakery saw the subject
take the card in his hand, heard him
answer the questions, and finally reel
and fall into the chair, assisted by Nc
Laughlin, Davis guide in the creepy
science. Mclaughlin telephoned to
Davis that the youth was gone" and
the Davis fastened in a hack to the
bakery. There he ordered the subject
into the lanai, where there was more
room for experiment. The young man
itottered along with one hand on Davis
arm and seemed glad to sit down when
he reached the spot pointed out to him.
His eyes were closed. but when COM
imanded to open them he did so slowly
and stared vacantly ahead. A candle
held to his eyes did not cause him to
wink nor did a needle passed over the
eyeballs bring any signs of feeling. He
was like a man drugged. When told
to hold out his arms perfectly stiff he
obeyed and kept them there for four
minutes without evident fatigue. So
when made to believe By Davis per-
suasive language that he was at hula
he laughed and clapped his hands and
seemed pleased. He ambled through a
cakewalk-not being 4 graceful dancer
in his waking hours-and shufIled his
feet when told that he was listening to
ragtime music.
The most curious phenomenon of the
experiment was in the startling differ
ence between the pulses of the subject.
Before he submitted to the test the sub
ject's pulse registered "A. After fif-
teen minutes it was 96. Under the di-
rection of Davis and Mclaughlin the
left pulse went to 90 and at the same
moment the right was Ia. Bringing
them lower the right was 112 when the
left was 81.

RECENT INVENTIONS.

A Pennsylvania has patented an
improved coal bag and unloading ar
rangement, comprising a central sus
tanning member, surrounded by n bag,
which has a gathering cord at the top,
the bags being suspended by the stems
on a wooden support for filling from
the chute.
Dustless roads can be rapidly made
by a Californian's machine, which has
n plurality of dust-stirring fingers,
which are adjusted to stir up the earth
in the road, a series of pipes extend
ing at the rear of the fingers to sprin-
kle oil from a reservoir mounted on
the machine.
Shoes can be quickly laced by the
use of a new attachment, comprising
a pair of slotted rigs carried by the
edges of the upper, with headed studs
set in the slots to slide freely, with
lacing attached to the studs to draw
the edges of the upper together as the
studs are raised.
An improved automatic safety lock
for elevators is formed of two triangu
lar blocks pivoted on top of the car,
and held in a folded position by the
cable, the breaking of the latter throw
ing the blocks out and operating two
links, which catch i'll the sides of the
we'll and support the car.
In New York a man has patented a
collar button which will save trouble
in fastening a stiff collar, the shank
of the button being telescope, with an
internal spring which prevents the
shank extending too far out and also
locks it in a contracted position after
the collar is fastened.
A handy tablet for telephones has
been patented by an Ohio man, com
prising a reel suspended in two brack-
cts at the edge of the battery box, a
roll of paper being placed on the reel
and held smooth across the top for
writing, with a sharp metal strip to
sever the sheet after use.
Moving and reaping machines can
be provided with new whip holder
which is formed of a support attached
to the tongue of the machine. carrying
whip socket with gear wheel at the
rear, which meshes with a gear shaft
extending in position for the driver to
turn it and operate the whip.
A handy adjustable bracket for U.S.
.on painters easels has sleeve to fit
around the upright legs of the easel
with an L-shaped arm pivoted in each
sleeve to engage notches in the legs
when in a lowered position, allowing
the sleeve to be raised or lowered
when not engaging the notches.
Runaway horses can be brought I'M
der control by a new dashboard attach
ment, which has base bolted to the
dashboard, with lip pivoted to clamp
to rein against the base when pulled
from the front, backward pull releas-
ing it for tightening the reins when a
new hold is taken by the driver.
