Burlington, May 25 Fire broke out
yesterday afternoon about o'clock in
the basement Of d, w. G. cIapp's ear
penter shop on Mechanic street. When
the firemen arrived, they found that
the shop was locked up, none Of the

had secured good Roadway and it
was some time before it was under
control. In the basement were stored
brackets, ladders, horses, etc The bases
ment and hatehway doors were open
and it il supposed that somebody went
in to get some shavings aud dropped
fire from pipe or cigar which started
the blaze.
Unfortunately Mr.. Clapp has no in
surance on the property as the policy
lapsed only d short time ago. The
building is owned by Mayor James Il.

DRAUeHT DOGS IN HOLLAND

Animal Does the Work Of the Donkey
in the Low Countries.
In Holland and Belgium the dog oc-
cupies the place which the donkey
does in several other countries. In
the former the sight of a couple of
dogs dragging along a pushcart loaded
with vegetables, flowers or shining
| milk cans is a familiar one. They
trOt along underneath the cart with
in easy reach Of the blunt toe Of the
sabot Of the woman, who walks be-
hind it to guide it by the handles at
tached at that point.
In Belgium the dogs are hitched in
front, as the Russians attach their
| horses to their droskies, three abreast,
and are guided by a pair of rope reins
fastened to a muZzle about the nose
Of the dog in the middle.
Recently the National Cart Dog AS
ISOLATION, organized to regenerate the
original race of Belgian mastiffs, held
it's first exhibition of cart dogs. The
Flemish breeders have found that in
crossing the Belgian mastiffs with the
Great Danes, with the idea of increas-
ing the size of the cart dogs, and SO
securing additional strength, they
made a mistake. The result proved
to be animals with weak headquarters
and disproportionate limbs. Now they
are endeayoring to revive the original
stock.
The women and dogs Of these two
little countries are another evidence
that human and canine nature are the
same the world over. When one sees
the white-capped Belgian milk woman
with her dogs standing near a we'll,
the woman having battered can
slung on her forearm, one Instructive

is confirmed when one discovers a po-

pair of sulkyfaced milkmaids, with
their dog team and cart laden with
