LIFE SAVING DOG DIES.
Jake Was Prize Winning New.
foundland.

Jake, the big Newfoundland dog which
won the first prize in the open class
for dogs and bitches at the Westminster
Kennel Clubs show in Madison Square
Garden last fall. died last Saturday of
paralysis and distemper at the home of
his owner, II. w. Palmer of Harvard
Delaware county. The animal would
have been three years old next fall and
was valuable dog, Mr.. Palmer having
refused as high as $4,000 for him.
But Jake was not only worth consid-
cradle money. AS Mr.. Palmer expressed
it, he had "fine soul" He had lived
only little more than two years. but
in that time he had crowded into his life
many good deeds. He had saved two
human beings from death. he had won
two gold medals for saving childfen's
lives and he had been decorated for
work in the great war.
Jake made many friends wherever he
went. At Madison Square Garden last
year the great shaggy dog was one of
the chief centers of interest He didn't
mind being petted he seemed rather to
like It. in fact, and he especially liked
TO have children run their hands through
his shaggy hair and pull his huge ears
He was the only Newfoundland entered
last year, but had been shown here the
previous year also. He was considered
one of the finest and most valuable
dogs of his kind in the United States
but Mr.. Palmer valued him not so much
for the money he was worth and the
prizes he had won as for the "fineness
of his soul"
