There are at least 2S5.Oo0 dogs in
Constantinople, which has a population
of 10000 They are the vilest of
towards and are the scavengers Of the
city. II is said that scores OF people
are bitten daily by the dogs OF Con.
stantinople. but that a case Of hydro
phobia was never known there. Three
centuries ago Nassuf Pasha. grand
yizier to Achmet Ill, transported all
the dogs 20 Asia and would have had
them destroyed there, but the sultan
on consulting the mutt, was told that
every dog had soul and consequently
forbade such wholesale destruction
After the slaughter Of the janizaries
Mahmoud intended to get nd of them,
for he caused an immense number Of
sausag es @ 10 be made and. having
poisoned them, gave the dogs a feast
Many thousands were thus killed 10
one day, but the people murmured so
much that he was afraid 10 begin q
second days work. He therefore order
ed them to be expelled 10 Asia. but the
order was very indifferently executed.
and in a short time the dogs were as
numerous as during the time Of the
janiZaries.

What Its Size and Shape Are Said 90
Indicate.
A high forehead to be very good
should be we'll developed about the
eyebrows.
Breadth Of forehead Is always favor
able. 1t is distinctly connected with
breadth OF character.
A forehead that curves hack reveals
a poetic temperament fondness for
the arts and a talent for either music
or painting.
OF course a broad forehead may be
part Of a weak face, and weak chin
and mouth will naturally give a truer
impression OF character than even
combination of a narrow forehead
with an otherwise strong face.
If there is quite a perceptible bulge
of the eyebrows, combined with high
forehead, the sign is Of a calm, cool,
deliberate thinker.
If with these eyebrows is combined
a forehead that slopes gradually back,
a sensitive, poetic temperament is dis
closed. II, again, they are combined
with a short, narrow forehead, the
subject will be successful In business
and In everything connected with
worldly matters, but he will be In
capable Of approaching to any extent
or Of creating anything connected with
the arts.-New York American.

A Lost Check and the Peculiar Way Il

A wealthy New York lawyer sat up
late one night writing letters be had
not been able to finish during the day.
It was past midnight when be went out
to mail them, and when be returned
and was undressing he paused in dis
may, missing q check for a large sum
received during the day and taken
home with him. In vain was the house
ransacked at that late hour. He went
to bed convinced that the lost check
must be in the house. An hour later
he fell into uneasy slumoer and bebeld
as with his eyes Of the flesh the pink
check curled about an area railing four
or FIVE doors from his own house.
SO real was the dream THAI the trou-
bled man woke up, dressed and slip
ping down the stairs into the street,
walked along the sidewalk to a spot
still seen wildly in his mind, and there
sure enough. standing edge upward and
pertly curled about the iron. was the
missing check. II think" he reported

There is more Catarrh in this sec
ton of the country than all other
diseases put together, and until the
last few years was supposed to be
incurable For a great many years
doctors pronounced it a local disease
and prescribed local remedies, and by
constantly failing to cure with local
treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be q
constitutional disease and therefore
requires constitutional treatment
Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured
by F. j. Cheney. & Co., Toledo, Ohio,
Is the only constitutional cure on the
market; 1t is taken internally in
doses from 10 drops to Il teaspoonful.
1t acts directly on the blood and

offer one hundred dollars for any case
it fails to cure. Send for circulars and

TO ABOLISH TRUSTEES.
Growing Sentiment in Favor of
Board of Regents.

The sentiment seems to be grow
ing throughout the state in favor
of abolishing boards of trustees of
the four educational institutions
under the control of separate
boards, and substituting a single
board of regents who would control
the University of Mississippi, the
Agricultural and Mechanical Col
lege, the Industrial Institute and
College, and the Alcorn A. & M.
College (for negroes.)
Interest is added to this senti-
ment by the near ar-certainty that at
either the next or the succeeding
Legislative session will see the pas
sage of an act creating state
normal school for teachers, a thing
which has been advocated with
much ferver by practically every
educator in the state, and when
this is created it would come under
the supervision of the governing
board, giving them five institutions
to manage, which would require
practically all their time.

have been on the verge of fighting
on several occasions.
Neither Col. Cooper nor his son
will make any statement concern,
