An Intelligent Dog.

A gentleman once had very hand
some and intelligent collie in his pos
session. One day he lost the dog when
taking it through the city. The crea-
ture in vain searched everywhere for
his master and at last, seeing hanson
cab creeping leisurely along. jumped
into it and settled himself determined
" on the seat. The driver tried to en-
tice it out, but without success, and
little crowd collected. None dared to
tackle the dog, but at last facetlous
spectator shouted out, II say, Bill
darn me if he don't want to be druv
home" THAT'S it; that's what lie
wants." they all agreed amid shouts OF
laughter. Then one examined his col
lar and found an address clearly en-
graved upon it. Without further ado
cabby jumped up and drove up to TINS
same address, which proved to be the
correct one. Needless to say, the cab
man was substantially rewarded: Ihe
dog had been in the habit OF driving
home every evening with his master IL
a hanson and, with doggie reasoning
had decided to follow his usual custom
when he had given up hope OF nndlhs
his master.-London Opinion.

His Innocent Client.

This story is told of celebrated
North Carolina lawyer who was prac-
ticing in a backwoods mountain dis
trict:
While he was waiting for his case to
be reached the trial of a notorious
highway robber, who had been caught
red handed, was called. The prisoner
had no counsel, and the presiding
Judge requested the distinguished law
yer to defend him. The trial lasted
two days and, to the courts astonish-
ment, the jury returned verdict OF
acquittal. AS the prisoner was about
to be discharged, the lawyer stepped
up to the judge and requested few
words in private.
"What is it?" asked the court
II would ask your honor" replied the
lawyer, Ito have the prisoner detained
in jail tonight. have to cross lone
ly field on my way home and the ras-
cal happens to know that l have money
about me-"

The Extiact QuaSga.

The quagsa. the half cousin to the
Wild ass, has vanished from Africa
and only exists as imperfect specimens
in The European museums.
The quagga exists as name still In
South Africa, for the name has been
wrongly applied to Burchell's zebra.
but the true quagga, which took its
name from its cry "quacha," has been
extinct since 1872. when the last Of
his or. rather Of her race, for this
quagga was female, died in the Lon
don Geological society's menagerie.
It's extinction in South Africa was
due solely to the zeal with which the
Dutch farmers hunted it for It's hide,
and it is a saddening reflection that
thousands of Kaffirs used to be fed on
| II by their Boer masters.
The idiotic wastefuiness of thus ex-
terminating species becomes the
more marked in view of the fact that
! the quagga which was midway be-
tween Il Zebra and u wild ass, could
be broken to harness and was the
bravest as well as the hardest of ami
| mails. Some Boer farmers used tc
keep tnm,' qua&gas OH their farms tt
craze Wit horses in order to protec'
| them fraigl boasts of prey.

ESKIMO COURTSHlP.
How the Native Selects q Bride-The
Marriage Ceremony.

The Eskimo gentleman. never selects
wife in his own village. AS soon as
he is able to make living for a family
he goes into ueighboring village and
falls in fit Of love before some likely
girl. She is then penned up-for some
time in Il housed sort Of dugout or
burrow in the ground-and when the
bride day COMES he goes there and
crawls in. 1t is in the play that the
bride to be shall so strenuously object
that she fights him off. He then goes
out and gets his dogs and sled, and
when they are harnessed up he goes
in again. overeomes her, ties her hands
and feet, places her on the sled and
hauls her to his own village That
completes the ceremony Of marriage.
The whole village gives them we'd
ding feast. Next day. or later on, if
they don't forget it, they go before a
minister of the gospel and are married
in due form. This feature of the union
however, is not important and does
not bother them very much.
The dressing of the brides hair is
a revelation. 1t is done up in a series
of knots about Il foot high on top OF
her head and pulled so tightly from the
scalp that very often big patches of II
are fairly pulled out by the roots, leav
ing bald and barren places around the
ears and the temples.
