A DOG.

He came to town few days ago
a perfect stranger. He was Il little
bit woody, but not in the least
shaggy. Some one had deprived
him OF those membership ears and
tail---by which dog indicates tho
state Ct his mind and the temper
Of his feelings. AS he was a strange
dog and appeared to all who met
him entirely neutral, if not abso-
lutely Indifferent, all began to
reach different conclusions about
his sanity. lie was Of medium
size aud weighed about 45 pounds,
well proportional. Il few Of the
grlz2ly hairs that surrounded his
eyes were projected across those
organs and slightly obscurod tho
expression, This dull colored chest
nut sorrol creature walked up the
street Ono trot) placed his feet on
the pavement in front Of the drug
store and stood pat with his hind
feet on the street, lie seemed to
haYo formed the habit Of standing
on all tour feet, not once assuming
parade rest as other doga, Several
spoke to him, but the only response
was quick straight look into the
eyes OF ;he speaker, the dog not Il
syllable expressing. He was not
tongue tied, but he had no tail.
This made him appear ugly and
impolitc. Soon it was suggested
that he was mad. "Get gun and
kill him' was said by two or three
at once, and all began to get back
further from the dog and several
were reminded that they had busi-
ness in the drug store and come on
top Of the counter. The dog still
did not move, but stood pat on four
toet for inspection. a man who
has seen many kinds of dogs
stepped up, patted him on the head
saying: Gle is not mad" The
dog still did not move muscle.
Neither raised or lowered his head
IN response to the touch of sympa.
NY. The gentleman repeated
,lhls dog is not mad but more
'han that he is not scared, uneasy
or even nervous. Look at the
shape Of his head--how round.
Not alike, but he has more sense in

tlo next day and stood around or
tho street. Uo neither asked nol
refused an introduction to other
dogs who came around. lie sim.
ply looked at his acquaintance
and kept all his feet straight under
his body. He never tlinchcd or
growled at the crude methods of
somo yCung dogs towards strangers.
1t was evident from his quiet we'll
hammered behavior that ho was
not seeking fuss, foot-race or a
hight, He watched the young dogs
play around just as people watch
them. All agrood that he was a
peculiar dog, but his dlgnilied
good hammered course won him q
few friends. Ono boy dld not
want Tiger to get at him. He said
it would not be fair fight, and he
did not want To see him mutilatod.
1t was soon announced that Tiger
had come with his mastor who was
at once informed Of the situation.
He said he did not want Tigor to
get into fight, but he was sorry
for any dog who picked a quarrcll
with him. The lawn was cleared
for action. Tiger declined for
NAL introduction, because he did
not know how the strange dog was
holding, or would be holding his
tail, if he had one, so he plunged
forward with all the vigor of his
lnsulted and angered nature to
make short work Of the contemp,
tiblc pup. Tho pup lent firmly
forward, If possible to withstand
the maddened onslaught. ]Io with.
stood it-all four feet right on tho
ground. Tiger had run against q
cast iron dummy dog once before,
but he did not remember that it
hurt and held on like this thing.
He tried to pull back and get a
new hold. lie could not. Flo

run forward. He could not.
tie was up against something.
Lie took a tremendous twist and
whlrl then stopped to study the
effect. He felt himself worse hurt
and worse fastened than ever. IIo
growlcd deep-throated growl.
Pup chewed big dog vigorously.
Pup just showed by his actions ifl
there was a dog any where could
whip him, he did not care to live,
He kept both eyes on his business
the big dog. Tiger wanted to 60
home the worst he evor did in his |
life, but the pressing business of
the moment showed no signs of in
termission, lie looked at his mas
ter and looked at the spectators.
All agreed that he had undcresti.
mated his antagonist. He could
never whip him. They began to
try to part them. Pup said no; he
didn't begin that fight, but he was
going to win it or die in the at
tempt. TEey overpowered him
and pulled him loose. Tiger ran
home not thinking what he came
after, but he got lesson by trying
to dictate to other dogs how they
shall wear their tails.
Everybody who has heard of ri.
gers rout and overthrow is q great
friend to the pup. They all want
him. Some say he is not dog.
Pup stands pat on all four feet,
and the dogs have quit running up
against him.
