SHOOTING STRAY poes.
EVANS & SMITH, pub.


The reports OF the opening OF the
dog-killing season In several cities are
replete with brutality. The police
men shoot at all the prescribed ca
mines, and in missing them, which is
oftener the case than not, they are
apt to destroy the lives of men, wom-
en- and children, who may happen to
be within pistol range. II the bullet
hits the dog at all, It probably wounds
the poor brute, and makes an other
wise safe and sane deg writhing,
foaming creature, mad from fear and
pain, and scattering alarm and dis
gust wherever 1t may run or drag its
tortured body. says the Washington
Post. Even when the policeman is
marksman eaough to dispatch the dog
without suffering or scattering bull
lets among pedestrians, the killing is
offensive to the sight Of every human
being with spark Of feeling and Is
brutalizing to impressionable children.
In the midst Of the heat and semi
hysteria which may be expected from
the dogs and dog days. Washington is
to be congratulated thus far in not
resorting to the pistol for the removal
of friendless and homeless dogs. What
ever crusade may be nesessary to re-
assure the nervous and protect the
people from unlicensed or otherwise
outlawed dogs, let there be no turning
to the policeman's pistol as means
Of mending the situation.

he give any opening for criticism in none of his actions does he give any opening for criticism; in none, too, does he insure any great enthusiasm. An uninteresting man? One hears that comment passed, and on the whole it Is not, perhaps, without some share of truth If he has not inher- ited his fathers swiftness of apprehension, neither has he inherited his tact; and prehaps the most interesting thing about him is his recklessness of speach in pri- vate, the way he blurts out anything that may be in head. Moreover, he has which incline toward a decidely stiff necked Toryism; and in addition he Is fond of getting up cases in connection with the leading questions of the day. The combination of the qualities leads at times to some amusing developments, and the spectacle of the Prince of Wales trying to convert a leading free-trade publicist to tariff reform, and featuring Cabinet Ministers on their inquites, Is by no means uncommon. In another age one can easly conceive the Prince enact- ing the part of George III. He holds forth at any rate, on the misdeeds of 'those damned Radicals" in quite the old autorcratc style. But a Prince and Q King are two very different personages: and as the supreme head of affairs the would one imagines, be everything that is decorous, solemn and a trifle dull. At the same time he would be free from em- barrassing ties, he has no set" and strongly disapproves of his fathers "set," and in time. no boubt, he will make d most manageable ruler.

Painter Turner's Meanness.

From the Strand Magazine.
 Apropos of Turner's meanness, there is an emusing story told of Gillot. patron of Turner's, calling upon the great paint CT to purchase his work, and turning to him and saying; Now, Turner, l have bought many a picture of yours, and spent many thousands of pounds, but you have never even offered me a glass of wine. Yet I am told that you have some of the best; grand old stuff you buy down the Thames when you go to your favorite haunts among smugglers and others. Out with itl I will not leave your studio until l have tasted it."
 Turner reluctantly produced bottle of old port, and grumbling all the while, poured out glass. The connoisseur drank it.
 Well. neverl That's the finest glass of wine 1 have ever tasted. You mean old fraud! I'll be equal to you next timel"
 Next year Gillot came around again. After business wine was suggested. and after some difficulty Turner had to pro- ducc his port Gillot drank 1t and then spluttered:
 "oh. good gracious, Am I poisoned? Whats this? Some of your internal bitu- men. or what?"
 "No, that's all right. It must be, for you praised my port last year, and that Is out of the very same bottle!"

From Harpers Weekly.
 Intellectually he is typical Guelph; he had not inherited his fathers quiekmov- ing mind. His speeches are rather ter rible performances to read or listen to. He has never quite found his platform legs To do him justice he has no desire to find them; he would far rather be on a quarter-deck. But he cannot escape the penalties of his position. Hardly week goes by without his being obliged to deliver a public speech on some sub ject of which he probably knows nothing, of which at any rate, he cannot possibly know more that the alphabet. A clever man would get use to such ordeals, would learn how to emerge from them trium- phantly. But 15 years at sea are not good preparation for this kind of work and the Prince gets no further than
