Negro Badly Used Up In Fight With
 Infuriated Canine

In desperate battle with an infur- lated mongrel of huge stature, Char les Shields, a negro of 397 Charles street, was badly used up last night, and so weak that for time he was unagle to leave his home to seek sur- gical attendance
 About midnight he made his way to the Emergency hospital where Dr. Andrew McQueeney dressed many lac erations on both hands, and cauter- lzed the wounds as safeguard against hydrophobia. Shields feared the dog had gone mad, and asked the surgeon to use every precaution to prevent his being seized with the dread convulsions.
 Shields had the dog for a dozen brought home another, a puppy. The elder dog, he says, appeared jealous of the attentions the strange canine received. Last night he was walking through the yard when the older dog attacked him and bit his left hand. He snatched up a stick and beat the dog, and the canine attacked him sav- agely. Despite the blows Shields rained upon the animal. the dog leap- him and barking savagely. Shields retreated, snatched up a shot gun and fired at the animal. The dog escaped and again attacked him.
 Shields fell in the struggle, and the dog took a stand foot away, snarl- ing viciously whenever the negro of- fered to arise Mrs. Shields shouted at the dog, and catching the animals at tent1on for the moment, gave her hus- band an opportunity to get into the house second time, when he reloaded his gun and killed the beast

 The basement of store was former. ly regarded merely as a cellar, ft for storage, packing boxes, etc. Then came a merchant of the present day, gifted with an imagination to an un- usual degree, who ecognized-though, perhaps, not in these terms-that the customer was guided by subconscious control and argued that the lack of effort in going downstairs would ap- peal to the subconscfousness and that the glimpse of displays seen at the foot of the stairs would lead customers to the basement, notwithstanding f5e low ceiling, the imperfect verdiatfon and the absence of daylight This merchant has lived to see not only a daily attendance on a basement floor ten or a dozen times greater than that on the average floor above the first, Sut also to see his discovery copied by practically every store in the land The real gist of his discovery was that subconscious control leads us to do the easy thing first-namely. go downstairs-without reckoning with the next problem, which was, of course, getting out of the basement- Cassier's Magazine. z

West Point Traditions,

'1t is an interesting fact, often re ferred to at alumni reunions and in addresses delivered to the cadets at West Point" said a retired army off Ger, "that one of the most distin- guished of the graduates of the acad- emy, who afterward wore the epau- lets of a major general was once a bootblack on the streets of New York and was plying his trade when he no- ticed in newspaper an announce ment of a vacancy at the academy for the district in which he lived, and he applied for it.
 Another of the traditions" contin ued the officer, '.is that one of the best cadet officers that ever wore the gray was the son of a convict, and, al though that fact was known to every one of his comrades, it never made the slightest difference in his social standing. I do not know of any other institution where the same social rec Ognition and the same loyalty of com radeship would be displaye Wash ington Herald.

His Cns.cs oi eapons.

fn "A Century of English Ballads" i" a book by Harold Simpson, there Is a delightful story of Stephen Incledon, an eminent tenor of other days, whose singing of Black Eyed Susan" was peculiarly to the peoples taste. While staying at country inn Incledon had quarreled during the evening with an army officer. He imagined he had closed the controversy by going off to bed, but the officer, left downstairs to brood over his wrongs, thought oth- erwise. Making his way to Incledon's bedroom, he found the singer fast asleep. When he succeeded in walk ing him, a matter of some difficulty, the officer demanded satisfaction.
 Satisfaction murmured Incledon sleepily. Well, you shall have it. Whereupon he sat up in bed and sang "Black Eyed Susan" in his best style.
 .'There," he said, lying down again, ~my singing of that song has given satisfaction to thousands, and it will have to satisfy you" And he turned over and went to sleep again.
