PUZZLE FOR THE POLICE.
Dog Belonging to Thirsty Australian
Successfully Evades Law,

The law badly wants to arrest q
Taihape ON. L) dog for aiding and
abctting his owner to quench an un-
lawful thirst. The owner had a VIC
lent desire for beer, and he also had a
prohibition order out against him. So,
not being able to get beer personally,
he handed the dog a kit with a shil.
ling in it.
In a few minutes the dog came back
minus the shilling, but with a bottle
of beer. The local policeman has
been lying awake at night wondering
whom he is to arrest for infringement
of the "prohib." order. For one thing,
it can't be proved that the man told
the dog to get the liquor.
The dog can't be accused of will
fully supplying a prohibited person,
partly because the dog had received
no legal notice that its master was
prohibited, partly because the dog
wasn't a vendor of liquor, partly, also,
because it didn't take the cork out
to see what was in the bottle. So it
can't be proved that it knew what ii
was supplying. And there is no law
against supplying liquor to dogs, so
it is hard TO see how the publican can
be dealt with.-Sydney Bulletin.

KILLED BEAR WITH A ROCK.
w Nevada Indians Had an IN
pleasant Experience.

TWO Indians were attacked by a
large black bear on Berry creek in
White Pine county, Nevada, yesterday,
and after a desperate fight they sue
ceeded in killing the enraged animal
with a rock. The fight was unequal
and the Indians were torn and cut in
q terrible manner by the claws of the
huge beast.
The bear vas sleeping in the will
lows along the bank of the stream
when the Indians, who were fishing,
came upon it. The animal rushed at
them with an angry growl and sue
ceeded in knocking one of the Indians
s~enseless with a blow of its paw.
The beast then closed with the 9th
err redskin and endeavored to draw
him within reach of it's open Jaws.
The Indian fought with great bravery,
but was about to surrender to the
beast when his companion regained
consciousness and rushed 10 his aid
with a large rock.
He struck the bear at the base of
the skull and stunned it, and before
it could ecove crushed it's skull with
the rock.-San Francisco Call.

GOAT AS SOLDIERS MASCOT.

In some regiments of the army also
an animal mascot Is maintained,

Victoria to the regiment in 1894, and

Billy had, therefore, served with the
battalion for ten years and accom-
panied them to Malta, Egypt, Crete,
Hongkong and India. The first goat
was presented by Queen Victoria SO
long ago as the year 1889.
How the custom arose of having a
goat as a regimental pet is not known.

Picture in Cisuuise.

Many and strange have been the vi
cissitudes of some of the worlds
greatest pictures, and a fine painting
which now graces Lord Leigh's resi-
dence in Warwickshire, Eng, has an
interesting history. This remarkable
picture, which for some years consist
ed of a painting of flowers, was pro-
nOunced by an art dealer to be merely
a mask for some other picture, and on
his receiving permission he gradually
cleaned off the flowers, discovering
underneath a very fine portrait of
Charles |, by Nandyke. II is supposed
that the portrait was thus disguised in
order to ave it from destruction by
the Roundheads at the time of the
Commonwealth.

Eiqht.Inch Hat Pin in Pet Cat

A pet cat belonging to the family Of
Mrs. F. a. Hurlbert of Oberlin, Ohio.
had been sick for several weeks, and
a veterinary surgeon was called. On
examination he discovered a sharp
point protruding from its neck. He
made a slight incision, and pulled out
q hat pin eight inches in length, the
head of the pin having been imbedded
in the cats stomach. After the opera.
ton the cat began to purr, which
showed that it was perfectly satisfied
with the treatment, and it has once
more taken its position with the choir
on the back fence.
