30C that TOLLS FOG BELL
Intelligent Animal Is invaluable As.
sistant to Keeper Of Isolated
Light Station.

Of the shores Of Alaska, on small,
rocky island, is a little light station.
connected with which is a fog bell.
During the continuance of dense fogs,
which frequently prevail, the bell
is used to warn vessels Of the dan
ger OF approaching too near the island
aud coast.
The hghtkeeper has a large and
very intelligent shepherd deg that an
swers to the name Of Don Carlos. This
dog has been trained to toll the fog
bell when the weather is very heavy.
So well trained is Don Carlos that,
when the fog comes rolling in, he
rushes, unbidden by the keeper, to the
bell and begins to tug at the rope and
to sound the alarm.
Don Carlos often takes his turn at
the bell during the night when
the keeper is busy looking after
the light.
Il do not see how I could get along
without Don Carlos" the keeper de-
clares. q am all alone and have no
other assistant; but I can always rely
implicitly on my dog. He knows his
duty and faithfully performs it, wheth.

NATIONAL POULTRY SHOW.
CLASSY Exhibits of Barn Yard Pro
ducts Compete for Prizes.

New York. Dec 2S.-A thousand
barn yards combined into one could
not produce the volume of noise
which echoes through Madison square
Garden today. The growing of roOst-
ers, the cackling of hens, the quack
of ducks and geese, the gobble-gobble
of turkeys, the cooling of pigeons and
the sweet music of song birds serve
TO produce an uprOar that is constant
and almost deafening. The foolish
ROSTERS. lhistaking the electric lights
for the dawning of the day, keep up
a continuous roar
There is some class to the exhibits,
too, as the finest poultry and pet
stock of the United States and Can
ada are brought together in a com
petition for the coveted prizes to be
awarded at the twenty-first annual
show of the New York Poultry, Pig
con and Pet Stock Association. Incu-
batOrs of all sizes and makes hourly
bring into existence new flocks of
poultry, and the varied accessories of
the industry are on exhibition.
Tomorrow the meowing of Toms
an dtheir wives will be added to the
general din, when the Atlantic Cat
Club opens its annual exhibition in
the concert hall of the garden, which
the directors think is the most APP
propriate place for a feline show.
However, the pUssies to be shown are
all well bred and polite, majority
being Persians and Angoras, and
many of them are valued at hundreds
of dollars each. Some of the cats will
have maids in attendance, whose sole
duties viii be to look after the com
fort and welfare of their own par
ticular charges.

A Thing of the Past.

Leonora O'Reilly, the vice-president
of the Women's Trade Union league,

MUSICIAN A MASTER OF WIT.
Biography of Edward Mcdowell Re

In a biography of Edward MacDow-
ell by Lawrence Gilman, the writer
quotes some of the famous musicians
Witticisms. On one occasion he had
been told Of a performance of his
composition, ITO Wild Rose" played
by a high-school girl on a high-school
piano at a high-school graduation fes-
tivity Well" Mcdowell remarked,
Il suppose she pulled it up by the
roots!"
Some one sent him about this time,
relates Mr. Humiston, a program Of
an organ recital at which this same
wild Rose" was to be played.
He was not pleased with the idea,
thinking doubtless Of a style of per-
Torrance which plays Schumann's
'Traumerei' on the great organ dia-
pasons. He remarked simply that It
reminded him of a hippopotamus wear
