Couldn't "Do" the, Mississippi Pup.

That the State of Mississippi ex-
cells in all things good-"even in a
dog-was demonstrated again last
week at the trials of the United
States Field Trial Club at Grand
Junction, Tenn. The lavish ex-
penditure Of money by the Whitneys,
Duryea's, Ameses, Lorillards and
others to win the Derby, resulted in
signal defeat for them, and a vic
tory for a poor Mississippian's
pointer pup. On the first day there
arrived in special train the
wealthy men of the East, including
Hobart Ames, H. B. Duryea, H. H.
Sturgiss, P. Lorillard and others.
Their trainers brought the dogs that
were looked on as enjoying a mort
gage for the rich purse hung up for
the winner Of the Derby. Little at
tention was paid to pointer, han
died by plainly dressed man, from
Corinth, Miss. When the final
brace were started to settle the first
heat the pointer had things all his
own way and by all round good
work caught the judges eye and
won for his owner the title Of cham
pion Derby dog of America. AL
fred's John was the name of the
pointer pup and Mr.. Jones that of
the handler. Jones left his Missis-
sippi home full of confidence and is
reported to have said just before
leaving: eff | win that Derby I'll
give the church $780," and he kept
his word Immediately on receiving
first money and the trophy that
went with the purse. Alfred's John
is regarded by dog men as a marvel.
He has no pedigree, and but for this
handicap he might be worth thou
sands instead of $500, which Mr..
Whitney,s representative offered af-
ter facing defeat in the last run-off. |
Before the start of the last run-off. |
entertained spectators around the
hotel with sideshow features by
making Alfred's John do tricks that |
would compare with similar stunts
accomplished in refined vaudeville.
Alfred's John is also coon and |
'possum hunter, and will stree" the
varmints of the woods as readily as
he hupts quail on the ground. After
the easy victory of the poor mans
dog the Fasteners. were the first
to extend the hand of congratula-
tion. The next move was to pur-, /
chase Alfred's John for Mr.. Whit
ney's kennels. But Jones refused
all offers and will leave for his home
near Corinth, carrying with him the
purse, pointer pup and $50 prom
ised to the little village church.

WE'RE COMPARISONS oDious2

The Worcester spy Of March q has a
rather spicy editorial on the conduct OF
a "Josephlte' preacher In Cleveland. o.
Il seems he was very much dlsgruntled
over the presence OF Salt Lake Elders
In that field, and proceeded to make
personal remarks and illusions which
exhibited his spleen and did not help
his cause. This Is frequent display
on the part OF "ReorganIzed' speakers.
whose chief theme Is usually made up
Of attacks on the Church, the headquar-
ters Of which are in this city The
Cleveland director declared that the
Utah "Mormons' purposely selected
the best looking and best educated
young men for work in the Cleveland
field. OF course that, II true is a se-
rlous ohense, But the Worcester spy
makes the following caustc comments
on the assertlon
Evidently something had grated ter
ribly on the good elders feelings In
his excitement he forgot TO be polite
lie should have confined himself TO DIS
cussion Of differences of doctrine in
stead Of lntmatlug that he was little
bit jealous OF the fine personal appear
ance and excellent address a his III
walls.
"The result was that the Utah Elders
at the first opportunity moiestly as
serted that they were not abe the aV-
crage OF their brethren IN Utah as to
physical and mental attachments They
went so FAR as TO say, indeed that had
an effort really been made to select the
best. more handsome and more brilliant
men than they would have been sent
TO preach in Cleveland. II Is to be fear
ed that unless re Recognized Nor
mons can calf together men as conely
aud as bright as the men from Utah,
the chances will be somewhat against
them in their missionary work, partic-
ularly II they continue to call atten-
ton to the enemys good looks and
mental ability"
