Teeth OF an Aristocratic Can.

There was an item famine at Ship News
the other dav which may have accounted
for the story in red ink that dog fight
on the gangplank of La Bretagne delayed
the French liners sailing for several min.
utes after ten o'clock, the hour set, states
the New York Sun.
What really happened" said French
Line pier official, who seemed to think
that two yarns were better than one, was
. gaucherie by . proletarian yellow dog
and q reprimand by an aristocratic blue
ribbon bull pup with bat ears.
The yellow dog was excited, never hav.
ing been allowed on board before, and
went up the first cabin gangplank by mis-.
take, when it should have headed for the
steerage.
This annoyed the dog with the bat ears
and the topaz studded collar, who was
going aboard at the same tine with his
mistress He put his teeth two filled
with gold) firmly but not viciously, into
the ear of the yellow dog. led him down
the plank and along the pier to the foot
of the steerage gangplank and there let
him go. Then the aristocrat hurried back
to the first cabin and got aboard just a
minute to ten That dog was so swell that
if he had got left he would have hired a
tug and chased the liner down the bay.
But there was no fight. The Jewelled
pup was too well bred for that, and the
yellow dog was too much awed by the
topazes to resent being corrected"
Other officials say that no dogs sailed on
La Bretagne.
