all the knowledge I had Of him was
pick'd up on the rare occasions that
din'd at his table. He had early married
and lost Tn aged shrew. whose money
had been the making Of him; and had
more respect for law and authority than
any three men in Oxford. So that / re-
lected, with kind of desperate hilarity,
on the greeting he was like to give me.
This kinsman of mine had fine house
ut the east end of Merton street as you
turn into Logic Lane; and was ten
yards from the front door, and running
my fastest, when suddenly tripp'd and
fell headlong. Before Iscouid rise,
hand was on my shoulder, and voice
speaking in my ear:
Pardon. comrade. We are two Of
trade, I see."
Twas a fellow that had ben lurking
at the corner of the lane, and had thrust
out leg as pass'd. he was pricking
up his ears now to the Grief of "Thief
theft" that had already reach'd the
head Of the street.
Il am no thief" said l.
"Quicky' He dragged me into the
shadow of the lane. Hast crown in
thy pocket7"
"Whyr
why? For good turn. I'll fog these
gentry for thee. Many thanks, comrade, "
as pull'd out the last few shillings Of
my pocket money. Nov pitch thy sword
over the wall here, and set thy foot
on my hand. It's a rich mans garden,
t'othcr side, that was meaning to ex-
plore myself; but another night will
serve.r
'Tis Master Cartsr's." said I; 'and
e's my hnsman."

The Bulletin believes that the state

and act accordingly.
The Bulletin did net hesitate To take
the position as soon as the possib lity
of yellow fever spreading into this sec.

should enforce rigid quarantine. II
believed that the commerce of the

munity depended upon the measure.
IL is jua as much convinced today 4
mat there was such q necessity and I /
does not hesitate to say that this city
has been spared visitation of the
plague largely If no entirely because
the quarantine WAS maintained.

An Episode in the Life of Two Dogs.
BY MINERVA SPENCER HANDY.

There was the greatest excitement in
Merrivale. Miss Margery Dale, the teacher,
who had come to take the place of the one
married at Christmas had arrived In ad-
dition to her two trunks she had Travelled
with her dog That was bad enough, but
her dog was a freak one to the people of
Merrivale. 1t had pug nose, long ears
shaggy hair. and its under jaw protruded
in such way that 1t suggested a monkey
more than dog. This specimen was a
valuable one and the winner Of many
blue ribons, but in the opinion of the
townspeople 1t was the queerest looking
object that had struck town since the cir
Gus had been there.
The strangest thing about Miss DaIe's
dog was that his back was covered with a
neat-ftting golf jacket, trimmed with bands
of sealskin. This garment capped the climax
of Merrivale's disgust. Seth Jones, the
postmaster, said he had often seen pictures
of such things in the Sunday supplements.
but he never really believed any one owned
one. When he realized that he was mis-
taken. he shook his head sadly and gave
as his opinion that any teacher who travels
around the country with thing like that
couldn't be much on reading or writing or
sensible things like them
The only person in town who knew that
the school teacher intended to bring her
dog was Mrs Barney, the owner of the
house where Miss Dale had engaged board
In writing to her, Miss Dale had said that
she would be willing to pay extra for her
dog, from whom she was never parted

day night. Mrs. Barney had written
back that she should never mind the extra
for the dog that she had two herself. and
there were always enough bones for several
dogs from her table. Besides that Miss
Dale's dog would be company for hers.
Poor Mrs. Barney! As soon as her eyes
lighted upon the object Of these remarks
she knew that she had made a mistake
Her dogs were evidently not good enough
to sleep in the same part of the house with
this elegantly bIanketed and berlbboned
animal. How she did wish that she had
charged Miss Dale extra two dollars a
week board. But all this has little to do
with this dog tale-though to tell the truth
the tail OF this dog was the best thing
about It.
Miss Dale and Lady Hflary-the dogs
name-were unaware of the sensation they
had created in this peaceful village. Every
supper table was made merry by accounts
of how they both looked and just how the
remarkable blanket was cut.
While the humans were discussing Lady
holding an Indignation meeting down. by
Fras1er's barn. So prolonged and fear
begetting were the growls that came from
that location that 1t was good that no

mans dog, "she wears her mistress coat
