DOG COMMITTED SUICIDE.
This Spaniel Could Not stand Bully ing of Kennel Mate, It Es Thought,
 So Ends Life with Gas.

Mig, pet spaniel owned by Lafay- cite Heidell, of Rochester, N. r., is dead, and the manner of his shuffiing off establishes a precedent in dogdom. He died by asphyxiation, and whether the case is one of suicide or murder is puzzling the disconsolate owner.
 In company with bull pup Mig oc- cupied comfortable quarters in MT Heidells home for several years, and his lot was happy far beyond that of the ordinary dog. If his end was in duced by his own devices the cause for the act is hard to trace. Motive for the murderous deed on the part of the bull pup is equally difficult to find. Therefore mystery surrounds the lam entable case. But Mig is certainly dead
 MT. Heidell was awakened one night recently by nauseating odor of gas. Being familiar with the use of gas jets, he was convinced that he had not blown out the gas before retiring. so he searched the premises to discover the leak
 The cause of the trouble was found in the kitchen, where the gas range was discharging its fuel from an open pipe. Near the range were stretched the two dogs. Evidently they had be- come restless and in moving around the stove had opened the stop-cock. Both had been overcome, and Mig had passed away to the dogs paradise. After some trouble the bull pup was revived and is still in the ring, though weak.
 Persons acquainted with Mig's dis position are inclined to believe that. long suffering from the pups bullying abuse. he sacrificed his life in spirit of revenge.

GINGERsNAPs KILL cows.
Herd of Maryland BOvines Make R Midnight Raid on the Sweets and
 All Die as a Result.

Edward M Gillet, of Venora, Baltimore county, Md, has lost S2, ,750 worth of prize cattle because of their inordinate ap- petite for aged ginger snaps, mixed and fruit cakes. Eleven of his fine herd of Hereford cows died after a too free in dulgence in the American delicacies men toned He valued the cows at $250 each.
