The EAlrhEuL DOG.
How He Saved the Lives of a Party
of Prospeotors.


Last winter a party of prospectors
were camped on the Naldcs one Of
Alaska's great glaciers Day after
day they had worked their way for.
ward, death disputing every foot
with them until It was decided that
the main party should remain i'm camp
and two of their number. accompanied
only by dog, should cndcavor to find
n trail which would lead away from
the glacier.
For days the two men wandered
until nature succumbed and they lay
down, weary and exhausted Their
faithful companion clung to them and
the warmth of his body was grateful
MS they crouched low with the bitter
icc-laden wind bowling about them
Their scanty stock of provisions
was wcll-nigh exhausted, when one of
them suggested sending the dog back
10 camp. This was a forlorn hope, but
their only one. Quickly writing n few
words on leaf torn from book
they made II fast around the dogs
neck ana encouraged him to start
back on the trail
The sagncious animal did not appear
TO understand. but after repeated ef-
forts they persuaded him to start. and
he was oOon swallowed up i'm the
snow. the mist and the storm.
Two days and nights passed during
which the men suffered untold agon-
les. On the evening of the third day
when all hope had gone and they
were becoming resigned to their fate
out of the binding and drifting snow
bounded the faithful dog. and close
behind him came ready hands to min.
lister to their wants.

was strong, well-knit lad. and he
was shoveling coal with will under
the strangers directions Pretty soon
the stranger said, with q sigh:
"Old four eleven. | used to run this
engine myself, years ago"
There was nothing more said until
they reached a little station this side
of Hazelwood, when the fireman, who
had only been stunned and had recov-
cred, though his head was bound up,
came forward to take his place, and
Tad asked permission to 20 back and
pack up, as he would not be needed,
and he wished to get off at home.

that the strange engineer" for whom
he had been firing was none other
than the president of the road, and

BIG JACK AND TAD,

"1ad sat upon pile of baggage laz-
lily swinging his feet and waiting till
his train was ready to start on its long
night trip across the country, when
among the last struggling shoppers he
saw Il tall pleasant-faced looking
man walking leisurely toward the
train with a swing that made Tad"

been railroad man.

SOLICITORS OF CUSTOM.
Dogs That Pilot Their Fellows to
Haven of Comfort

The fact that dogs have Il way of
communicating news TO one another
was demonstrated to me in Il very sin
gular and amusing fashion about two
years ago.
1t was in South Georgia. where as
yet little provision Is made for the
comfort of domestic animals. where
during cold wind-swept nights shell
tcrlcss cows and mules wander about
restlessly, where chickens and tar
keys roosting on leahess trees ill the
sharp air with their plaintive voices,
where dogs ana other domestic ami
mails must seek their own night quar-
ters as best they can.
One Of those bitter cold nights, such
ms cold wave often brings, | heard
at our front door the unmistakable
sounds of scratching and whining ana
found, upon opening, two of my little
neighhOring friends, Il pug and n little
terrier asking admission to all appear
anccS. In face of the cruel cold ii was
granted them and they were welcome
to share the comfortable quarters OF
my own two dogs.
In the morning they took their de-
parture. But how great was my aston
islmcnt to see them return the follow
ing COlu evening anu accompanied Dy
n large Irish setter who likewise
wagged admission to the warm quar-
ters he seemed to have knowledge of.
If there were any doubts as to
whether these hospitnble night lodg-
ings were discussed among the shelter
less dogs OF the neighhorhood these
doubts were removed on the third
night, when my three tramps re-
turned, their number increased by an
other pug and an old pointer. The
mute but eloquent language of their
wagging tails, the humble appeal in
their sincere eyes were certainly
amusing.
With my two pets aud these five
tramps | had *ow seven dogs stretched
out comfortably before my dining
room CRATE But with their irreproach-
able behavior and their many lngratia-
ting ways they had insured for them
selves welcome Mt our house as long
as the cold spell lasted which was
nearly n week. As soon as the cold
subsidized they returned no more.
Is not this good evidence of the pow
er of communication among our
speechless friends.-Our Dumb Ami
mails.
