trap set in my wife's bedroom in pur- suit of-the cheese
 Now and again temporary fits of in tense and most exigeant affection for some one member Of the household would overcome him. And, as he pre- ferred to utilize the powers of scent rather than of sight in recognizing his friend for the time being, I have seen a stranger literally bound off his seat ir alarm when Moroo came up behind him and sniffed audibly at his calves during his search for the person he wanted to talk to-
 When we let our house Moroo formed a part of the fixtures and accepted the situation gracefully--so much so, indeed that he more than once managed to in- duce the tenants to believe that he was an unappreciated and underfed animal. But, though people used to pet him and fatten him up, never had subse- quent application for his character, with a view to a, change of situation. As he once strotted rnanfully for two miles along the railway in pursuit of a train which was conveying the temporary ob- ject of his affection to our market town, and on another occasion, having been

regular meal, both in our dining room and the servants hall, and filling up odd chinks by periodical attacks on the pig bucket. It is hardly to be wonder ed at, then, that he suffered from chronic dyspepsia, and occasionally used language which-mutatis mutandis was worthy of gouty invalid in the Georgian era. At a certain period of each day-i, e., between Il and 1 o'clock, when meals were temporarily off-it was his common habit in fine weather to sit down by the front gate and at- tract the attention of passing dogs by prolonged whining.
 "Any stranger who, attracted by the sound, stopped to pass the time of day then had the pleasure of hearing some plain truth about his own personal ap- pearance, moral character and every thing else connected with him. If one might judge from the transports of rage into which the animal on the wrong side of the gate was commonly driven, noth- ing in the way of vituperation came aniss to Moroo, and I am convinced that each newcomer was informed that not only he himself was outside the pale of civilization, but that his female an- cestors up to the third and fourth

RAID ON coUNTERFEITERs.

Dynamite Found in a New York Flat.
 New York, Nov. is. Following up the arrest yesterday of Mrs. Josie Biodo Bi- pndo for attempting to pass a counter felt quarter secret service agents raided the flat where the woman lived, finding there metal moulds and formulas for the composition of counterfeit coin and also four big sticks of dynamite, weigh ing six pounds a coil of fuse and sup- ply of illuminating caps. The. woman's husband, Salvatore, was arrested.
 Among the papers found in the room was a list of several hundred names, both Italian and American, which, the secret service men are inclined to think has something to do with Mafia matters.
 Blonde, the secret service men say, Is acquainted with Moriro, the leader of the gang arrested for alleged complicity in the "barreP' murder. This gang con- sisted of seven or eight connterfeiters who were rounded up by the secret ser- vice men. There is a possibility that the arrest Of Blonde may lead to the finding of several small counterfeiting plants.

thing really should be done. The stick. was accordingly held up, and Moroo, taking a tremendous run, after two or three balks and false starts, would gall Top furiously-underneat and then. clarmor for his biscuit! If the stick was held foot off the ground he would blunder over it somehow; at six inch es he would actually clear it.
 T have heard people who profess to be knowing about dogs declare that no other dog comes near poodle in the point of intelligence. Moroo, then, I imagine, must be numbered among the exceptions that prove the rule. For, apart from a natural gift looking after his own commissariat. I never found a glinniering of intelligence, and if he had any of that commodity he kept it religiously to himself. What an egregious fool he really was may be gathered from the fact that, if I stuck my stick into the ground, and then in- vited Moroo to inspect the hole, he would at once declare that there was a rat about, and spend the rest of the afternoon in digging. He never, to my knowledge, really did kill or wish to kill a rat. but he once wrecked a mousse

PENSION BILLS

Introduced in Congress Yesterday.
 Senator Platt yesterday in the senate presented several pension bills in be- half of Senator Hawley. They were as follows: In behalf of John Adamson of Southington, at the rate of $50 per month. Adamson served in Company 10, Fifth Connecticut volunteers. Am other for Mrss Emma E. Taylor of Middletown, former widow of David B. Buck, late first lieutenant Company F, Twenty-frst Connecticut. This bill calls for $25 per month. Also an increase to SIP per month for Henry V. Sims of Hartford, late Company F, Seventh Connecticut volunteers. MT. Sims is getting $50, but is now totally blind and helpless. Another increase to Hamlet F. Roberts of Hartford, Company A, Twenty-first Connecticut volunteers. The bill calls for $50 per month. Also increase to $3O per month for Thomas Davis of Company c, Twenty-ninth Connecticut volunteers. ~
 Senator Platt also presented a bill granting a pension of SIP per month to Mary Mclean Wyllys of Glastonbury, one of the very few living real daugh- ters of the revolution. Her father was James Mclean, who served as private during the revolutionary war.

generation were no better than they should be, and his male progenitors, if possible, worse. That was real fool of dog which, goaded into positive fury, thrust it's nose under the gate. For this was the thing which he was evident ly playing up for, and the nipping of the aforesaid nose being safely accom- plished, and acting on him like sherry and bitters. he would trot back to the house in better heart for the next meal
 "Never, under any circumstances, did I know Moroo study any ones comfort or amusement but his own. Accident however, coming to the rescue of in- capacity and unwillingness to oblige, often rendered him involuntarily anus ing. For, having just sufficient sagacity to discover that other dogs in the establishment were rewarded for do- ing tricks by biscuits, Moroo rose to the situation and professed a desire to be- come a trick dog. ...
 Here are two of his best and most classical tricks. After watching two collies, excellent jumpers, clear my, stick at considerable height, Moroo by loud barking and general display of ex- citement, sigified his intention of entering the lists and showing how the

SOME WAYS OF A DOG.

A Refutation of the Belief that Poodles
 Are Intelligent.
 "An omnivorous appetite, a plethora of bad language, a deep and sincere affection for Number One-are they,to be regarded in the light of virtues? If not, then of virtue, I fear, Moroo had none," says 'Blackwood' s." "Nor again had he many positive or at least actively objectionable vices. Nay, rather, his. intense and grotesque, ugliness, his whimsical disposition, the unfailing readiness with which he lent himself to be made fool of on every possible occasion, were so many points in his favor.
 ''Nohing in the way of food ever did come amiss to that dog-not the richest cake, the strongest cheese, the cats meat, the garbage in the pig bucket, or even brand-new leg of mutton. The last certainly did not come out of our Iafder. .... ..t

AFTER THE ROAD WAS OPENED.
 The celebration of Founders day by Mount Holyoke college recalls pretty story of the early years of Mary Lyon school. At that time the road over the
 notch was little more than the original
 Turkey Pass" of Indian days, and the
 president of Amherst college believing
 that a highway should be constructed,
 led to the foot of the mountain crowd
 of students equipped with spades and
 axes and bade them work. And it is
 related that on the day when the road
 was broken through Mary Lyon
 brought her little company of girls to
 the foot of the mountain on the South
 Hadley side, and prepared the dinner
 for the students and the president of
 the college. Whether the two presi- dents drew aside to discuss the deep question of leading youths and maidens | in the paths of knowledge and the ways of God, while these same youths and maidens searched for chestnuts, and talked of other than educational sub- iects. we are left to conjecture. It is interesting to note that in the past few weeks the Amherst Mountain club has been instrumental in having other paths cut through the forests of the Holyoke nge.--Springfield Union.
