‘They Were Regular Attendants" in Old
Colonial Days.
The principal disturbers of worship
in the colonial meeting-house were
dogs, says William Root Bliss, in “Side
Glimpses from the Colonial Meeting-
House.” 'Theyzseem to have been regu-
lar attendantsat the Sunday services,
and of necessity were placed under/dis-
cipline.
At New London (1662) one of the
duties of the. r-sexton was “to order
youth in the emeeting-houSe and ”beat
out dogs.” .At Charlestown (1666) :a
man was hired at four pounds agyear
“to ring the bell tchmeeings and to
keep out dogs in meeting time.” At
Dedhaun (167.4) a man was paid-eight
shillings .a year “for keeping dogs out
in meeting time and shutting the door.”
Andover did not Object to dogs, but
made them pay for the privilege of com-
ing to meeting. The law of this town
(1672,») said: "‘Whatsoever dogs :shall
be in :the meeting-house on the'Sa-b'bath
day the owner thereof shall pay six—
pence'for‘every time.”
The dog law of Redding (1662) was
peculiar. It runs thus: “Every :dog
that comes to the meeting, either of
Lord’s day -or denture day, except itbe
their dogs that pays for a dog-
whipper, the owner of those dogsshall
- pay Sixpence for every time they come
to the ‘meeting that doth not pay the
dog-Whippet”
Twenty-six men wrote their names,
or made their marks, in the Bedding
records, agreeing to “pay the dog-
whipper” to whip other people’s dogs
out of meeting, 'while- their dogs re-
mained and were recognized as mem-
_bers of the congregation in regular
standing.
DOG :A‘ND COW. a
A Remarkable Instance of Affection Be-
“ . ' tween Animals.
"A remarkable instance of affection
between a dog :and a cow is related by a
by a well-known suburbanite. His lit-
tle black Scotch terrier became infatu-
ated with a small Jersey cow in his
neighborhood, and every morning he
would run off to the pasture where his
slip out the side way and walk along
with“ the cow. He often missed his
breakfast and often did not taste a
mouthful all day. When she munched
_ grass by the roadside, he patiently sat
on his haunches until she moved along.
Sometimes he was confined at home to
break up the habit, but as soon as he was
released, off he would go at a full run
1‘ or the pasture, singling out his love
from the herd of cattle and following
close at her heels. He would jump up
and kiss her in the mouth, lick her feet,
and show signs of greatest joy when he
came to her. While the cow on her part
did not appear to appreciate his atten-
tions, she did not hook him away. Final-
ly, the family grew tired of keeping a
dog thatremained away during the day
and only came home for his supper and
to spend the night, on“. {rave him to per-
sons living some distance in the coun-
try. The cow, who had never seemed
to notice any of his demonstrations of
affection, missed his companionship
when he was gone. For she would come
to his former home at evening, put her
head over the palings and low. She did
this at intervals for several‘months. _
WHEN A TELEGRAM ARRIVES.
Usual Routine Through Which Women
, Go on Such Occasions.
“What is it, Mary?”
“It’s a. boy, mum, with a telegraft.” .
“A telegram! 011, as]: him if James
is killed!” 4
“He says he'doesn’t know, mum.” _
“Ask him what he does know about
it.” .
“He says all he knows about it is that
it’s for you, mum.” ‘
“Oh, dear! Oh, dear! What shall I
do? Oh, my poor James! I just knew
something would happen to him before
he went away this morning. Will they
bring him home on a stretcher, Mary?”
“I s’pose so, mum. Maybe you’d bet-
ter read the telegraf .”
“I can’t, I can’t! Oh, it serves me
right for not (kissing him. three times
when he left. And we’ve been married
such a short time, too.”
“Why don’t you read the telegraft,
mum?” - ‘
“Well, I suppose I must; but, oh, I'
can’t tell you how .dread it.”

“Oh! the heartless wretch!” ,
’ Utilizing Popular Airs.
The Boston Post/tells a. story of a
' young man who is forbidden to call on
- or write to the girl with whom he is
deeply in love, and by whom he is loved.
He manages to circumvent the vigilance
of her parents by whistling popular
airs, she. answering on the piano. He
walks by the house, for instance, piping
“Alice, Where ,-Art. Thou?” In good
2-, time he hears “Home, Sweet Home” _
~ Sweet ‘
‘ curiously at her hair.
“Will bring friend .
. home to dinner.——James.”
played within. After aturn around the
block he starts on “Oh, Nannie, Wilt
’ Thou Gang wi‘ Me ?” Perhaps the re.-
turn will be “Where Are You Going
To?” A few bars of “Come Into the
Garden, Maud,” convey to her the tip
and the opening of “All’s'Well” on the
piano tells him everything is under-
stood.

Accommodating. ‘ I
The following is told of an old lady
who had her hair cut off in a severe
illness, pnd wore a wig in its place. She
was staying in a continental hotel, and
one day noticed a gentleman looking
.Soon after, on
some excuse, he crossed the room to
behind where she sat. TShe'calmly got
up, turned around, and, lifting her hair
from her head, said: “Yes, sir; it is
a Wig.”
How They Eat. .

POINTS FOR oun'aomLs.
'A young woman should not bow to
any young man, no matter how well
mannered he nray be, who has not been
properly introduced to her.
When you have been invited to call
on a. friend who is vi siting your friend,
and find both hostess ’and guest out,
you should leave a card for each.
When you arrive in a. strange city
send'your card, with your temporary
address upon it and the hour at which
you will “be at home, to the friends
whom you wish to see.
At an afternoon tea. it is customary,
especially if there are to be many vis-
itors, for the hostess to ask some of
her young girl friends to pour the tea,
coffee and chocolate.
There is no impropriety in giving to
those men friends with whom one is
well acquainted some trifling souvenir
at Christmas or Easter, or when :birth-
days come.
No matter how friendly a young girl
may feel toward a- man whom she has
known for years, any letters, when
trouble comes" to his family, should be
addressed to his wife, and not to him.
When calling on a married lady you
leave one of your own and two of your
husband’s cards; when your hostess is
unmarried you leave one of your own
and one of your husband’s cards.

of her schoolbooks than of getting mar-
ried, for it is scarcely likely that she

Armstrong Says New Yorkers Were rEn-
riched by the Theft, of His Maps.
NEW YORK, June 10.—After 20 . years
spent in organizing and accompanying ex-
peditions to the uninhabited island of Co-
cos, 400 miles southwest. of Panama,
Where he believed he- would find the tens
of millions of treasure which. the great pi-
rate Morgan is said to have buried there,
Richard W. Armstrong of San Francisco
has now come east to sue wealthy New
York and Boston man who, he says, stole
his-maps and discovered the treasure.
In the. forties, Armstrong says, his fa-
ther met at a California mining camp an
old Spaniard who was sick, poor and with-
out friends. Armstrong‘s father provided
him until his death with the necessities
and some of the comforts of life. J ust be-
fore his death the old Spaniard called his
benefactor to his bedside, confessed to him
that he had been one of Morgan’s band,
' told how they had buried their plunder on
Cocos island and gave Armstrong a draw-
ing of the island by which he said the
treasure could be easily found.
,Armstrong’s father soon died, leaving
to his son the map of Cocos island and in-
structions to seek the treasure. Two years
ago be interested the New York and B05-
ton men whom he is now going to sue,
and they backed an expedition of 12 men.
Ten of the 12 died or were murdered.
Armstrong and the other survivor re-
turned.
While he was sick in San Francisco,
Armstrong says, an agent of the eastern
syndicate stole from him the map which
located the pirate trebSiire. Then the east-
ern men fitted out an expedition, went to
Cocos and found there the treasure, which
was worth more than $20,000, 000.
Neither Armstrong nor his lawyer will
give the names of the persons they intend
to sue. Cecilio Delgodo, consul general of
Costa Rica, says it was reported several
months ago that an expedition had suc-
ceeded'in getting the treasure which Mor-
gan’s band had hidden on the island of
Cocos. -
Another British Victory.
AKASHEH, June 10.-—-Major Burn Mur-

and captured the entire dervish camp and
a great quantity of supplies. Many
of the enemy were killed, and 40 der-
’vishes were made prisoners. Sir Her-
bert Kitchener has sent a detachment of
infantry to hold Suarda, as it is a. very
valuable position. The pursuit of the der-
vishes has been stopped, as the entire force
north of Suarda, with the exception of
about 200 fugitives, has been killed or cap-
tured. The whole of the Nile north of
Suarda is now in the hands of the Egyp-
tians.
Lives In Peril at a Fire.

after 9 a. m. The flames sprang from floor
to floor, and girls on the third and fourth
floors climbed from the windows and
seemed about to jump to sure death upon
the pavement. Urged by the spectators
they held on until ladders were raised,
and all escaped in safety-
