Citizenship by Cabin.

A pretty row is on between Mr..
Edward Hotehkiss, of Oberlin, Ohio,
and DR.. Doty. the health officer of
the port of New York. 1t is inter
csting because the thing Mr.. Hotch-
kiss objects TO might happen to any
American citizen whom duty or
pleasure CHANGED to call out of the
country temporarily.
As the story goes, Mr.. Hotchl1iss
arrived in quarantine, New York
harbor, last Wednesday morning
aboard the Ward liner Havana, from
Havana. He owns a plantation near
Santiago and has been there look
ing it over. He came second cabin
because there was only second cabin
berths left when he boarded the
ship, and he did not want to wait
for the next one.
The rule of the port of New York
IS that first cabin passengers from
Havana are supposed to be more re-
sponsible than second cabin and
steerage passengers, and may come
up to the pier provided they report
there at the end of five days from
the time of their departure from
Havana and let a doctor of the
health department examine them.
Meanwhile, their baggage is held at
the pier TO secure their coming
back.

of the "hooter," and that the owl would
get a run for his money. Although
owls live on mice principally, this owl
found in a short time that he had
bitten or just about "as much as he
could chew" The owl would fly at the
rat, which would be looking out for the
coming and scamper away out OF reach
OF the claws, but would then turn and
run in, handing the owl good, hard
bite. Once or twice the owl tried TO
get away from the clutches Of the rat.
but the little beast held on and two or
three times Il looked as IL the owl would
have TO surrender. Finally. however.
after fighting from early In the day until
the middle Of the afternoon, with an Oc-
casional resting spell, the owl caught
the rat mapping. and IL was all over.
Several bets were laid on the combat
ants. with the owl an Odds-On favorite.
Some money was wageTed on the rat
however, particularly after 1t had made
two or three vicious attacks upon his
owlship.

TERRIER STOWAWAY
ARRIVES ON LINER
Bright Little Animal Be-
comes Pet of the
Ship.

NEW YORK, June 4.-There have
been human stOwaways in plenty, but
when Eitel. Manchester terrier, came
in on the Graecia, Of the Hamburg
American Atlas line. from Santa Marta,
after a $500 mile journey, he is be-
heved to be the first dog TO have me
title bestowed upon him. As 10 his
status, Herr Zurmer, purser Of the
liner, is seeking information Of the Gus
toms officials. the purser having taken
Up the cause OF Eitel. for the dog be-
longs to nobody.
On the last trip out of the Graecia,
four weeks ago, from West Twenty
fifth street. the dog was first observed
walking about the deck. The ship was
well filed with passengers. and no one
asked as to the ownership of the dog,
but being bright, active little animal,
he received much attention.
When the island OF Haiti was reached
and the passengers went ashore one by
one, at the various ports, the cog Etill
remained on shipOoaJd- When the last
passenger had landed at Santa Maria.
Eitel still failed to leave the ship.
About that time the officers began TO
realize that the dog had come aboard of
his own VOlitiOn. and. living on the best
that the ship afforded, was immensely
enjoying the trip.
There was a suggestion that he be left
at Santa Marta, but Mr.. Zurmer stood
by the dog and insisted that he might
have a little master awaiting his return
at New York.
So as the pet of the ship, from the cap.
tain to the cabin boy. EiteI. so named
because of the lack Of knowledge Of his
real cognomen. came back on the liner
in as grand style as that in which he
travelled outward.
When the liner tied up here the
purser craned his neck over the side
Of the ship looking for man who
had lost a dog. No one appeared.
According 10 the customs rules a
dog who is not a thoroughbred cannot
be brought into this country from a
foreign port without payment Of duty.
Although the purSer knows that Eitel
slowed away at New York, he is not
at all assured that he can convince
