INTELLIGENT DOG HAD OBJECT
IN "LIFTING" GOOSE.
Therefore His Owner Insisted That
He Was Not Thief, and Magis-
trate Was Forced to See
Things In the Same Light.

A live goose and a Scotch terrier
occupied the attention of Magistrate
Dodd for longer time than any other
case on the calendar in the Manhat.
tan avenue police court, Williams
burg, the New York Sun says. The
goose was the property Of Joseph Ru.
dolph, a roofer at 1919 Grand street
and the dog, named kusch, belonged
to William F. Donges, who lives at
913 Flushing avenue. Donges was
accused Of stealing the goose, and in
stoutly denying the allegation he
pulled out from under his coat the
dog, and setting him on the judicial
bench, said he was the thief.
Rudolph said that Donges was en-
ployed by him as driver, and Donges
brought home the terrier. The par
ticular goose that was stolen was
kept with others ia the back yard,
and all were being fattened up for
the holidays. Rudolph said that the
dog ran about in the yard ard finally
the cackling of the geese drew his at
tention, and he saw Donges' dog max
ing of with the latest goose across
the open lots toward the Donges
home. Kusch had pulled his quarry
out of hole in the fence and with
his teeth gripping one of the goose's
legs made of with him.
THAT goose" added Rudolph, ''was
worth at least s1.75, and when 1 told
Donges about 1t he laughed, and said
he couldn't help what the dog did
He wouldn't pay me. so 1 told him
l would hold him responsible and got
a warrant"
When policeman went to Donges'
house and arrested him, Donges took
along the dog, and both we;e locked
In the prisoners pen. A friend OF
Donges took along the goose, whose
right leg was somewhat disabled as
the result Of being dragged over the
rough ground to the Donges home.
As Donges placed the, dog on the
judicial bench he said:

Mr.. Rudolph should have back the

After a moments hesitation Magis-
trate Dodd said:
Il can't send Donges to jail because
he has committed no crime, and the
dog can't be arrested, because there
is nothing in the statutes applicable
TO the case. The only way to settle
the matter is for Rudolph to take

USE OF CROSS IN HERALDRY
More Than Four Hundred Forms Of
the Device Are Recognized In
That Science.

In early pagan days the cross was
only those deformed or misshapen
trees that could be used for no other
purpose were formed into crosses.
But since the cross has become dear
to Christians, says the Ave Maria"
the most precious woods and metals
have been formed into it. To the third
century may be traced the custom of
making the Sign of the Cross. In
the days o. Constantine, Christians
painted crosses on the entrances Of
their houses as symbol of their
faith.
The impetus to the use OF the cross
in heraldry was given by the Crusa-
ders, who wore red cross upon their
right shoulder as token OF the OBJ
legation they had taken upon them
selves. Its form and meanings in her
aldic designs are many. In fact, over
four hundred and seven different
forms have been recorded by students
of biography and genealogy.
In heraldry the cross is formed by
two perpendicular and two horizontal
lines crossing in the center of the
shield This form is modified In va
rious ways by additions and combina-
lions, thus expressing many meanings.
II has been said that human intelli-
gence has never devised system so
infinite in it's varieties and so endless
In its application as is to be found in
the science of heraldry, in which fig
ure twenty-seven basic or fundamental
crosses.
The Greek cross has all four arms
of equal length, while the Latin cross
has the earth end longer than the 9TH
er three arms. The Calvary or Christ
Cross rests upon three steps or de-
grees. The Patriarch cross is recog-
nized by its double crossbar. The
st. Andrews cross is an x, in token
of the form of cross on which that
saint suffered martyrdom by having
his hands and feet bound to its four
arms. The ST. Anthony cross is
shaped like T, and has it's name
from the cross that ST. Anthony, abb
bot, wore upon his cloak, though the
origin of his cross seems to be Egypt
ian.
1t Is matter of interest that many
American families have the cross as
the basic emblem Of their escutcheons.
Among them are at least FIVE of the
presidents. The Garfield shield has a
blue cross in the dexter canton, and
the family motto is, 'In the cross /
conquer" The Tyler shield had on it
bar, two crescents and a cross form.
The shield of the Adams family was
adorned by large cruciform device.
