LONGEVITY OF DoGs.-The age to
which a dog lives in the ordinary
course Is always a somewhat interest,"
| ing subject. especially at the present
| time, when so much Is done in the way
of breeding for early maturity. For
instance, we have both collies and fox
| terriers becoming bench champions be-
fore they are we'll out Of their puppy
hood, but it Is sad to say that in a ma
jority Of such cases the overshown dog
afterward rapidly degenerates or dies
an early death. A correspondent writes
to The Field Of the death Of his fox
| terrier at the advanced age of Is years,
having been born in 1884. He was
either q son or a grandson of Broken
hurst Joe, his late owner does not
know which. This Is, no doubt, case
Of unusual longevity, but instances of
dogs living to IA and Is years are COM
mon. DR.. Leeney recorded the death
of dog of Lord Ogilvie's at % years
old, 1t arising from an accident; while
Mr.. w. L. Littleton-Geach about the
same time mentioned two of his own
dogs, one Of which was then living
hard on to 20 years Of age; the other
had just died when over that age. The
we'll known fox terrier BelgraVe Joe
was born July 81, 1868, and died Janu-
ary 13, 1888, while another aged terrier
was one of a working stamp which
came from George Carter, of the Be
dale, born in January, 1880. and died
February 13. 1900. In several Of the
above we'll authenticated cases Of Ion
gevity death either arose from acci-
dent or was brought about by the
owner. owing to growing feebleness OF
the poor creature. No mean can be
struck as to the average age Of the or
binary dog, but this might be taken at
10 years as he is now.-Pall Mall Ga
Zette.

believers, in word, in conversation, in
charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity;
and again in his epistle to Titus, In all
things showing thyself a pattern Of
good works. and,
Whereas, It is our purpose as min
sters Of the gospel, to set worthy exam
Piles in all things before our people, and
their children, and in no wise to abro-
gate the teaching Of parents to their
children. Therefore, be 1t,
Resolved, First, That by the grace
Of God, we will set wholesome examples
before all men, as overseers Of the
flock, by abstaining from the tobacco
habit, and all other habits inconsistent
with our high calling, as ministers of
the gospel.
Resolved, Second, That we will dis
courage the use Of tobacco in all other
Christians, by kind admonitions, by
preaching against its use, and by prop
er instruction to the people, as to the
injurious effect Of tobacco on the sys-
tenn.
Resolved, Third, That 1t Is the sense
Of the district conference, that no ap-
plicant for license to preach, or for ad
mission into the annual conference,
who uses tobacco in any form, should
be licensed or recommended to the an
nual conference, unless they solemnly
promise to quit 1t, and that forever"

The King and the Beggar.

A rather amusing story Is going the
rounds in the Danish capital concerning
the king and his little adventure with
Ia smart beggar, says the Copenhagen
correspondent Of the Paris Herald.
The Democratic habits of King Chris
the senior monarch Of Europe may be
seen walking about taking an early
constitutional. In some cases he Is at
tended by Prince Waldemar, and at
other times he is alone but for a favor
ite dog. The king on such occasions is
entirely unguarded.
On the occasion Of one Of these walks
q man approached his majesty. He
was rough looking fellow, with all
the suavity Of the professional mendi-
cant.
King Christian, like the late king Of
Italy, is particularly kind to the poor
and he goes out Of his way to notice
them and say kind words.
Taking off his hat, the man ap-
preached the king, who, seeing he wish
ed to say something, encouragingly
asked:
well, what is it?"
Please, your majesty" came the
somewhat astonishing request, might
ask for a picture of your majesty as
Ia souvenir"
The king, rather taken aback at so
unexpected a request and yet feeling
pleased at it, replied in laughing
tone, "Quite so, but do not carry my
likenesses about in my pocket"
Excuse me, your majesty" said the
beggar, with a knowing expression, Il
think you do. II your majesty will
only look in your purse, you will find
one"
King Christian disbursed at once to
the extent Of 2 kronen piece, but
little later the police, who had been
watching, quietly grabbed the man,
and he was warned and lectured
against begging.

Pat Callahan snarled:
Ibid yes see our swell commissary
sergeant behind the thickest tree there
was? I'm thinkin' he was .afeard o

"G'wan to blazes!" snarled Mick Nc
Twyny in reply. "Commissary sar-
jints don't made to fight If they don't
want to. Besides. It's better that
we'd lose the captain-yes, or the colo

tions."
T'm not sayin' ye lie." Pat replied,
"but If had as little stomach for grub
as he has for fightin' I'd 60 to the hos

After unsaddling I was greatly de.
layed in reaching the quarters, for
event over" my horse very carefully
to learn whether he had been wound
ed. Horses have their own reasons
for not reporting "a mere scratch"
that might in time disable them.

pocket mirror in one hand. my cousin

tears in his eyes.
"Brace UP. old chap" said |.
He quickly turned his bands to hide
their contents. but his face was too
honest to hide anything that was be-
hind it. Besides. he said in fragments
between sobs:

I'm disfgured for life. The surgeon

Brainard mopped his eyes with his
hands and looked proud an instant.
Then he groaned:
"'Tis q hard world. Jack"
The cruelest thing about it was that
Brainard was the only member Of our
company that got scratch, though
fully half of us. not being handsome,
like Hamilton. coveted the scar which
Brainard wore after his wound healed.
Among the half that did not covet that
-red badge of courage" was Hamilton.
He never spoke Of 1t, but many times
afterward did l see our handsome COM
missary sergeant look at Brainards
cheek with an expression that indicat-
ed extreme satisfaction and triumph,
with dash Of contemptuous pity that
made me hate the man. though he had
always been so considerate Of my abb

me double rations Of hard tack when

they were being bound. was afraid
they might be looking at me. Besides,
l had too much else to occupy my
mind. Capture meant prison, poor
food. perhaps sickness and death. 1t
certainly meant no more communica-
ton with home for months. Probably
my parents would think me dead, and
they would daily wonder where and
how l met my fate. Oh, what an aw.
full load of punishment belonged to
whoever was to blame for the war!
When all of us had been bound, the
men who had kept US covered with
their guns arose, came In front Of us
and stared at us. Suddenly one OF
them exclalmed:
"It's a fact! l was doggoned sure OF

"What you talkin' about?" asked an
other.
"This here" was the reply as | felt

continued my old acquaintance. I'VE

"Of course" growled the leader Of

told him truthfully that II we had to
be captured I was glad we had fallen
into the hands Of some one who seemed
to remember us pleasantly. Then my

told me they had hung about the edge
of our camp all the. day before. trying
to find out what we were doing. word

miles away, that ''lot Of Yanks was

followed us. keeping on one flank as
my little squad went up the river, for
/ they wanted to learn what we were up
to. They were glad they had seen US
leave camp; otherwise they would have
missed their boat. on which they night
ly crossed the river to the house In
which they slept.
All this was interesting. but 1t made
cold chills play hide and seek all over
me. Suppose. instead Of following us
through mere curiosity. they had shot
us as soon as we were out Of hearing
of our camp. Ugh!
"Guess we'd better git across the riv-

leader of the party. 'The Yanks III be
