DOGS AS AID TO WOUNDED
Scotch Collies Adopted as a Part os Italian Army to Retrieve
 Injured Soldiers.

It has been recently recorded that our friend, the Scotch collie, has been appearing in a striking, new Italian military role. A Milan paper recent ly appeared with an interesting ac. count of the manner in which little corps of collies has been added to the Italian army and turned into dogs of war. They are not used for fighting, but for retrieving wounded soldiers. Their trainer, Capt Ciotola, has adopt ed the method employed with the St. Bernards. Tn the training process the captain employs his men to play the part of the wounded. These collies, however on finding wounded sol dier, are not trained to haul the man along with them, but they carry a small wallet of restoratives, to render. first aid. After the wounded man has been refreshed the collies hurry off to give the signal to the scouts of the army, who then bring the wounded into the relief line. One of the col lies, Asta by name, coaxes and encour- ages the wounded man to accompany her, If he can; failing that, she dashes off and in little while returns con- voying the search party. Another, who Is called Mars, on finding one of the wounded, takes to the nearest high ground and raises howl to summon the ambulance men.

AN INTERESTING VILLAGE.
Writer Says Igorot Is Rather Care less1y Applied Calls Them
 Mountain Agriculturists.


 Tn the Igorot village, at the worlds fair, are representa- of several vil- lages and even of several tribes. It Is the most interesting portion of this whole ethnic display. Igorot is a rather carelessly applied general term, says Frederick Starr in the World To- day. Tn general the Igoretts are ,,,e...;:;s-- ...:s- tain agriculturists, living in the in teriOr. Their bodies are finely devel- oped, the skin is handsome brown, the faces are attractive. While they were occupied in building their houses their activity and industry called out frequent comment from visitors. When at home the men go naked or wear a simple breech-clout; the women are simply but decently clad, with waist garment and skirt of cloth woven by themselves. Men wear great wooden plugs in holes in their ear lobes and women are fond of necklaces of beads The men are bold head hunters" and their tattooed bodies evidence their success in head hunting expeditions In the village there are three principal groups: The Bontoc Igorots, the Suyoc Igorots and the Tingianes. The Bon toes are famous head hunters" the Suyocs are miners and metal workers. the Tingianes are agriculturists. The Suyocs are outfitted with forges, bel lows and the other requisites for demonstrating their craft The Tin gianes have planted some rice in food ed terraces to illustrate their mode of culture.

she soon steadied it. have never seen a more admirable presence main- tained in the face of dreadful humil- iation.

 TT" Her eyes opened wide in won. dering doubt 'If I was I did not know it. have no remembrance of it."
 Your condition of mind and that of MT. Jeffrey seem to have been strange ly alike" remarked the coroner.
 ''No, nor' she protested
 Arguing like source"
 NO, no,' she cried again, this time with positive agony. Then, with an effort which awakened respect for her powers of mind, if for nothing else, she desperately added: II cannot say what was in his heart that night, but I know what was in mine dread of that old house, to which had been drawn in spite of myself, possibly by the force of the tragedy going on in- side 1t, eliminating in delirium of terror which sent me flying in an op- posite directiona from my home and into places had been accustomed to visit when my heart was light and un- troubled"
 Another question, Miss Futile. When you heard pistol shot sound ing from the depths of that dark H. Drary, what did you think 1t meant@
 Something dreadful; something su. perstitious It was night, you remem- Der, and at night one has such horri- ble thoughts"
 Yet an hour or two later you de- clared that the hearth was no load stone. You forgot it's horrors and your superstition upon returning to your own house."
 Tt might be-" she murmured, ''but if so, they soon returned. had reason for my horror, if not for my supersti- ton. as the event showed"
 The coroner did not attempt to con- trovert this. He was about to launch a final inquiry.
 Miss Futile, upon the return of yourself and MT Jeffrey to your home after your final visit to the Moore house, did you have any interview that was without witnesses?"
 "No."
 ''Did you exchange any words ?'
 T think we did exchange some words; it would be only natural"
 Are you willing to state what words?"
 She looked dazed and appeared to search her memory.
 Il don't think I can," she objected.
 But something was said by you and some answer was made by him?'
 T believe SO"
 Cannot you say definitely" ?"
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1904-09-14

"We did speak,
 'In English?"
 ''No, in French
 Cannot you translate that French for us?"
 Pardon me, sir; it was so long ago my memory fails me"
 "Is it any better for the second and longer interview between you the next dayY'
 "No-sir" K "You cannot give us any phrase or word that was uttered there"
 No"
 'Is this your final reply on this sub ject2"
 "It is."
 Simultaneously with her withdrawal the gleam of sensibility left the faces of the jury, and the dark and breeding look which had marked their counte- nances from the beginning returned, l, and returned to stay.
 The ceierity with which that jury ar rived at it's verdict was shock to us all. It had been a quiet body, offering but little assistance to the coroner in his questioning, but when 1t fell to these men to act, the precision with which they did so was astonishing. Tn half hour they returned from the room into which they had adjourned, and the foreman gave warning that he was prepared to render verdict.
 MT. Jeffrey and Miss Futile both clihched their hands: then Miss Futile pulled down her veil.
 .'We find," said the solemn foreman, "that Veronica Moore Jeffrey, who on the night of May II was discovered lying dead on the floor of her own un- occupied house in Waverley avenue, came to her death by means of bullet. shot from pistol connected to her wrist by length of white satin rib bon.
 'That the first conclusion of suicide Is not fully sustained by the facts.
 "And that attempt should be made to identify the hand that fired this pis- tol."
 It was as near an accusation of Miss Futile as was possible without men honinG her name. A groan passed through the assemblage, and MT. Jef- frey, bounding to his feet showed an inclination to shout aloud in his vto- lent indignation, but Miss Futile. turn Ing toward him, lifted her hand with a commanding gesture and held 1t so till he sat down again.
 It was both majestic and an utter ly incomprehensible movement on her part, giving to the close of these re- markable proceedings dramatic eli max which set all hearts beating and, | am bound to say, all tongues wag- ging till the reem cleared.

 And how can you suppose me to be in position to prove that? Say that l had sat in my front window all that evening and watched with uninterrupt- ed assiduity the door through which so many are said to have passed be- tween sunset and midnight--somethin which l did not do, as have plainly stated on oath--how could you have ex- pected me to see what went on in the black interior of house whose ex- terior is barely discernible at night across the streetT''
 Then you cannot aid herr" asked.
 With light bound he leaped into the carriage. As he took his seat he polite ly remarked:
 II should be glad to, since, though not a Moore, she is near enough the fam, fly to affect its honor. But, not hay ing even seen her enter the house. I cannot testify in any way in regard to her. Home, Cesar, and drive quickly. I do not thrive under these evening damps."
 And, leaning back with an inexpressi- ble air of contentment with himself, his equipage and the prospect of an indefinite enjoyment of the same, the last representative of the great Moore family was quietly driven away. ITO RR coNrINUED.l ;1
