ACCIDENT eRIEvEs DOG.
Refuses to Come from Watch Till Lost
Food 10 Recovered.

Morristown, N. j., May 27.-Nero, a
large Newfoundland dog owned by ].
Newcomb of Dover was so heartbroken
yesterday over his carelessness in drop
ping into the canal luncheon he was
carrying that he nearly killed him
self in his efforts to regain the parcels,
and refused to come out the water till
they were fished up.
Yesterday Nero started from his
masters home for his shop with a
lunch pail and some coffee In glass
bottle having a handle by which 1t
could be carried. He suddenly seemed
to remember that he could shorten the
trip quarter of mile by going across
lots and over the foot bridge Of the
canal. The bridge is a narrow plank,
and in crossing 1t Nero had to be 80
watchful of his steps that he forgot
to keep his jaws tightly shut on the
coffee bottle, and It dropped into the
water. Forgetting that he had the
lunch pail in his mouth, Nero jumped
in after the coffee, and thus lost both
burdens.
Then he began to plunge and swim
around frantlcally in the canal. The
accident had been seen by two boys,
and after they had watched the dog
swim around for half an hour they went
to the shop and told Mr.. Newcomb
about 1t. The latter hurried over and
found the dog swimming about, plung-
ing here and there, endeavoring to get
the lost luncheon. He called he dog
to come out of the water, but Nero
would not leave the canal. All efforts
to get him to the shore were fruitless.
The dog was becoming exhausted, but
still he swan around, yelping piteously,
grieved and nearly heartbroken at hay-
ing met with the accident.
