DOG WON'T QUIT HIS MASTER
Little Animal Pleads So Earnestly
That He IL Taken Along and
Struggles on Patients Cot.

New York.-Doctors and nurses at
Bellevue hospital are much interested
in little black dog called Jim that
was brought to the institution with
his master, John Miller. who received
injuries from fall caused by q
banana peel.
When the Bellevue ambulance re-
sponded to a call at First avenue and
Twelfth strete. DR.. Bran found MIL
Ter lying on the sidewalk with several
severe gashes In his head. Beside
him sat little black dog that looked
solicitously into Miller's face. When
the doctor took Miller to the hospital
the dog followed the men bearing the
stretcher to the step of the ambulance
and begged to be taken along.
DR.. Bran was at first inclined to
leave the dog behind. but the little
animal set up such a wall that he took
the animal beside its master In the
ambulance. There the dog licked the
hand of the unconscious man.
The rules of Bellevue strictly pro-
hibit dogs within the grounds, but
| when Miller was taken into the recep-
| ton room the dog refused to be left
behind When the dogs master re-
gained consciousness his first request
was for the dog Little Jim, hearing
his name. responded by jumping upon
the cot. and smuggling beside the pa
tent
Miller said he lived at SGT First ave-
nue.. When told that the dog would
have to be taken away he told Jim to
ask permission to stay. Jim walked
on his hind legs over to DR.. Rutledge
and pleaded to stay with his master.
The doctor gave orders that the dog
should be given the best of care and
that he was to see his master every
day.

her other cases. Her mind had In
stantly been made up to a certain
thing. however. and next day she pro
ceeded to carry her plan into execu-

way to the store OF Moses & Vain
right. She wanted to get an eye on
the afternoon shoppers. She had a
feeling that she could tell a shoplift-

a well dressed woman with diamonds
in her ears, and she might pretend TO
be at ease, but there would be fur

Miss Cleo passed from counter TO

spotted and followed two or three

didn't feel SO self-satisfied, however.
Mr.. Marshall reported that never had
the shoplifters been so busy. There
had been no less than seven cases
right under the noses of the brightest
salesgirls.
Should that report discourage a nat
ural born detective? Not in the slight
est. II should stimulate her to great
er exertions. That's what IL did in

astonish her brother-in-law and 9th
