TERRIER TRACED CHECKS.
Dog Makes Cash Payment for the Uni
form Kindness Shown to Him
by His Master.

Fox terriers are reputed to be among
the very brightest of CANNES. some
fanciers claiming that they have no
peers among dogs in quick and ready
instinct or intelligence. However that
may be, 1t is an indisputable fact that
fox terriers are exceedingly bright
and that their instinct at times leads
to fortunate results.
Nottingham Jack is the registered
name of q fox terrier owned and loved
by Dexter H. Walker, Of Jamaica, L. l.,
and Mr.. Walker attributes the recov-
cry OF large sum Of money to the
intelligence Of Jack and the training
the little dog has received Of unwav-
ering kindness since, as puppy, he
entered the Walker household.
During the year 1898, when Mr..
Walker was travelling in England with
his daughter, now Mrs. Thomas W.
Lamar, he saw Nottingham Jack ex-
hibited for SALE Mr.. Walker was a
close friend of Mr.. Bergh. founder Of
the Society for the Prevention Of
Cruelty to Animals, and is an amateur
fancier of broad knowledge. He says
he knew the puppy had breeding the
moment he saw him, and when he
learned that he was the son Of prize
winning parents he purchased him and
took him to his lodgings, near Hyde
Park. After spending one day making
the acquaintance of his new home.
Jack INDICATED his masters estimate
of his intelligence by finding his way
home alone after being lost by Mr..
Walker in the streets of London.
Mr.. Walker does not believe in the
use of the rod in the training Of dogs.
but maintains that they should be
taught by kind words, just as babies
are taught. If their training 10 thus

Mr.. Walker. says the New York

money a few days ago. It was in the
form of checks, and the memoranda
showing from whom the checks had
been received were with the checks, so
that the loss bothered Mr.. Walker not

had lost the checks about his home at
% Union Hall street, or had dropped
them in the street. He had payment
stopped upon the few he remembered.
but was at a loss to know what to do
about the others. He talked about his
loss at home, and finally said,. in a
spirit of fun, to Jack, when the little
dog was greeting him in the evening:
"Jack, I've lost some checks; 60 find
them"
The dog trotted away and COM
menced busily searching about the
house. In five minutes he barked JOY
ously, and kept up such din that the
notice of the household was attracted.
1T cannot be possible that Jack has
found those checks" said Mr.. Walker
to Mrs. Lamar.
They went to q pantry where JACK
stood barking, and there on the floor
