a Maternal Collie,

Giles, the shepherd of Folly Farm,
was brushing the white ruff of his ST.
600 collie. "The collie" he said, "is
the most intelligent Of dogs. Permit
me to tell you true collie story.
There was a Scottish shepherd, whose
dog gave birth to litter Of pups. All
but one of them died and the mother
devoted herself so thoroughly to this
sole remaining child that her masters
work was quite neglected-the sheep
were not looked after at all. The man,
enraged at this state of affairs, took
the pup and drowned it in bucket
before its mothers eyes. Then he
went off to the town for the day. In
the evening on his return, the drown
ed pup was missing. The shepherd
said to his collie, pointing to the
bucket: What did you do with your
pup, BeSsT The collie gave Il low,
mournful howl and set off, looking
backward often to signify to her mas
ter that he should follow. She led him
to a knoll and paused, moaning, beside
q SPOT where the earth had a fresh
look. The shepherd turned up the
soil, and there beneath it the drowned
buddy lay. It's mother had taken it
out of the bucket and given it decent
burial"-Philadelp Record.

Blowing Out Of Fuse Causes
Panic on the Central
Avenue Line.
THREE WOMEN in PERIL.
Only the Presence Of Mind Of
Three Letter Carriers
Saved Them From
Death.

The blowing out of fuse ON trolley
car No. las of the Summit avenue line
Of the Jersey City. Hoboken and Pater-
son Railway company while the car was
ascending the elevated structure to the
Heights set the car ablaze and created
panic amongysa number of women pas
sengers. The presence of mind of three
letter carriers and the conductor and
motorman prevented them from doing
themselves harm.
The three letter carriers were on their
way to the heights aud were the only
male passengers on the car. When the
fuse blew out sheet of flame soon shot
up from the floor and threatened the
skirts of the women. Three of them,
Mrs. c. H. Franklin, Of Charles street,
and Summit avenue, this city; Miss Kate
Duberstein, Of No. IA Forsythe street,
West Hoboken, and Miss Estelle Bennett
of No. 10 Bayard, Manhattan, attempted
to raise windows in an effort to jump
out. They were prevented BY the msa on
the car. Had they crawled thrcHgh the
windows they would probably have been
killed, as the trestle at she point where
the ear was standing was dfty feet from
the ground. The letter carriers were
William Fink, William Peat. and Thos.
Jefferson.
Effort was made by the motorman,
John Franklin to rush the burning ca
across the trestle, hut the motor refuse
to work. Meanwhile the men in the car
had to prevent the women from climbing
out of the car windows by force. a car
in the rear was signailed to and came
up and the burning car was attached to
it and drawn hastily back to the Hen
derson street station. When this was
reached Miss Dubersteia broke away
from the, man who was holding her and
climbed through window. She fell to
the station platform, but was only slight
ly bruised. Mrs. Franklin's skirt caught
fire in a dash for the door but she made
it and men quickly srncthered the fire
by pulling off their coats and wrapping
them about her. Deir hands were burn
ed in their efforts. Miss Bennett was
passed through a window. She escaped
injury.
An alarm of fire brought No. 2 Truck
and an engine to the scene. The wood
work of the car was badly damaged.
