He was, for all his many sided talents the least adaptable or adjustable Of men. He nursed the ldealisms of the poet and the painter. He was fas- tidious to degree in his methods and opinions. resisting the inevitable even whilst he admitted it. He took little in politics, or law for granted. He valued his friends was indifferen. to money; loved human companionshlp and rose to it's requirements; but, his convictions. they were adamantine immovable.
 Yet there was nothing downright or aggressive in his personal inter course. On the contrary. he was the gentlest and most sympathetic or men. As consequence be soon abandoned ambition and dropped out of political activity. He was unequal to the increasing hurly burly, the lowering demands, of public lie They offended his finer sensibnities. He preferred the quiet ways of the co.'s iege professor and the country gen. tleman. and was as happy in his re- tirement as he had been when stai of the first magnitude in the halls oi Congress and the society of the Ma tional Capital.
 He had certain love of solitude and was never accessible to strang- CTS. As humorist he shone only amidst the unconscious gayety of his familiar friends. He was clever equal ly as raconteur and comedian His liaetic talents were extraordin- ary He knew the people among whom he had lived, the country side in Kentucky and Missouri. and coulC reproduce with minute and startiins effect their peculiarities of action and utterance.

Rear Admiral Robert f. Peary's dogs at
Eagle Island to-day Margaret Neal, the
ten-year-old daughter of Professor Herbert
V Neal. of Tufts College. was horribly
bitten about the feet and legs by Old King,
the leader and the largest and most
ferocious Of the pack. The child was wad-
ing, while her father and sister, who had
accompanied her to the spot, were in an
other part OF the island, when the dog
sprang upon her. and the remainder OF the
animals. twelve in all, gathered about and
fought TO get at her.
The keeper Of the island was attracted
by the childs screams and the snarling Of
the pack. and with much difficulty drove
the animals of. The little girl, semi-con-
scious. was carried to the Tufts laboratory,
IN this place. where her wounds-twelve
ragged gashes-werc dressed. She will re-
cover.
The Peary dogs are usually clever and
playful and have never before been known
to attack any one. II is said to be one Of
their instincts 10 catch fish in shoal water
