DOG BOARDING-HOUSE.
Pet Canines Belonging to Upper-Ten
dom of New York.
Big and Little, Ugly and Handsome,
All on Their Good Behavior—
The Doe Judy.
Th« boarding-house for the pet dogs
of the Four Hundred is located uptown
on the west Bide. It is conducted by an
Englishman and his wife, who make a
good thing out of it by giving the elite
among the doy creation a comfortable
home and the tenderest care. The price
of board is not high, but it is more than
some poor families have to live on a
whole week.
The quarters are modest, and not so
luxurious as these aristocrats are used
to. The is a gmail plot of ground where
they run, a cosy tittle parlor where they
may yawn and snooze and stretch them
selves before bedtime, and snug ken
nels where they sleep the sleep that only
doga may know. The Knglißhman and
his wife go in for bulldogs, both raising
them and importing them. He says
tiiere is "something grand about a 'uge
dors: of the breed, and their intelligence
is immense." A whole pack of them are
about the place, inside and out.
The dog boarding-house is necessary,
because many of the rich dog-owners
don't own country places where they can
take their pets for the summer, so they
are forced to leave them in town. From
n> to $12 a month, according to size, is
paid for them, bize makes the only dil
ifcreoea in price.
There are (spring and Nellie, two Eng
lish buli terriers belonging to Mrs. James
Kernochan, pronounced the beat pair of
English terriers at the Dog Show of 1893,
Like other ladies Mrs. Kernochnu has
come round to the bull terrier as a pet,
finding it more faithful, hardier, less
peevish and more to be trusted with chil
dren than the lazy sybarite little lapdog.
Mrs. Kernochan is a great lover ot dogs,
aud from her early girlhood, as Miss
Eioise Stevenson, she has spent many a
loner hour among the proud pets of the
boarding-house.
Julia Marlowe frequently drops in to
■ay "How d'ye do" to all the dogs, and to
take out her own Irish setter Hanger for
a scamper in tiie park. Kau;; ir is on
capital terms with all the little dogs and
hus the freedom of the place. The big
dogs sometimes are quite ill-man
nered and aggressive towards the little
ones, despite the tact that they have hud
such select bringing up. When they
misbehave they are iocked up in the ken
nels and forbidden the parlor.
Just before Miss Lulu Morris married
Frederick Gebhard she imported an
eighteen-inonths-old blue audtan York
shire terrier. Hex, for which Mr. Geb
hard paid $200. Little Hex is on the best
terms with Tarquin, the great prize-win
ning bull terrier, belonging to the pro
prietor. Tarquin is king at the board
ing-houße. Mr. Gebhara's own six
pouna bull terrier keeps them company,
and if they didn't die pits in the grass
plat they'd be an absolutely irreproacha
ble trio.
None of these does are chained up.
They all get fond of the place and don't
want to run away. A toy Dull terrier,
Tin, belonging to Miss Baruett, of Eigh
ty-seventh street, looks out for strang
ers. He is a four-and-a-half-pound mite,
light, brindle and white, but ne is a line
watch doer and could give quite as much
trouble to a burglar's calves as any larger
animal.
The prize dogs, Carney, Little Plim
nier, and a number of others are on hand
to show the manners of the ring circuit
to the boarders who may have fallen into
slovenly habits. There's one man in
Xew York who would have given a good
deal two months ago had he left his line
English bulldog at the old stamping
ground of the boarding-house. Dr. Jo
seph N. Henry of the Hotel Vendome,
whose Marcus took first prize at the
show, hesitated about taking Marcus to
W aahington and refused $1,000 for him a
few days before the stark He did not
like, however, to leave him behind, even
at the boarding-hcuse. In Washing
ton the doctor went up the big monu
ment. Marcus jumped on the parapet,
overbalanced, fell 500 leet and was killed.
Some dogs have a prior right in the
boarding-house. There's Tip, Mrs. Perry
Tirfany's terrier, whom she carried
away one winter afternoon in her mutt'
when he was only a month old. She* was
then Miss Havemeyer. Tip joined Mag
gie Ciiue, another prize terrier in Miss
Havetneyer's boudoir, and never gnawed
anything in his early youth that wasn't
oi tine lace or silk or velvet.
Then there's Archie Pell's Prince, an
other swell boarder, who is entirely at
home, aud H. Van fiensselaer Kennedy's
imported fox terrier Spot, who fluctuates
regularly between the Fifth avenue man
sion and the Eigth avenue lot. There
are also Hose, owned by Arthur Taylor of
the Osborne Flats and the Taylor estate
at Whitestone, L. 1., a really snobbish
dog, and the two heavy and light weight
bull terriers, Nettie and Ethel, for which
Trenor L. Park gave in exchange two
bulldogs aud $600. The dogs prefer the
boarding-house to his steam yacht a good
deal. Then there are Mrs. Whitelaw
Keid's collie Harrison and her French
poodle Dodo, both valuable dogs, who
never deserve anything at the boarding
house but a good time. When Mrs.
Held visits there she makes the round
oi all the dogs for she is a great dog-fan
cier and well up in dog flesh.
Pink-eyed, black-nosed ni.onster Marc
Antony, an English bulldog*, is now be
ing led round by a chain, growling at his
unlucky fate in reaching the country two
days late to take a prize at the Philadel
phia dog show. The Eighth avenue lot
seems too amall for Marc. With him has
come Judy, a toy bull terrier, declared
by pedigree aud registration papers
oi all kinds to be the smallest of the
breed living. This is certainly a curi
osity of a dog going on eight months' old
and weighing just three and a half pounds.
Judy is dark brindle and white, looks,
pretty and wise and not a bit conscious
that she's bound to make a big American
sensation.—New York World.
BOSS OF THE BOAT.
So Cnluese Women are Called Among
the River Population.
Such a sight as is presented by the Can
ton River population is a thine never to
be forgotten, says a writer in the Chris
tian Jiegit'ter. Here, in their sampans
and larger boats are born, live and die a
quarter of a million of people. . They
have no dwelling places ashore. A di
minutive section of the stern of the boat,
covered with matting, and not often over
seven feet by four, is parlor, kitchen, bed
room, birth chamber and the death cham
ber of the whole family. With her baby
tied on her back, the mother sweeps the
heavy geuli, while the older children take
as naturally to the oar as ducks to the
vater. Indeed, the women, a 9 a general
rule, command the boat, steer it, and
iuake the bargains. As the phrase runs,
"She bosses the boat, and her hus
band bosses her." But boss the boat she
does, and a delectable sight it is to watch
tha skiil with which it is done. The mo
ment there is a ripple of indication of a
i.re of any kind, nfty sampans dash for
tha spot like a flight of Florida turkey
buzzards suddenly cognizant of a dead
aog. The melee that ensues is simply
ji describable. The babies' heads, on the
backs of their mothers, roll round like a
planetary system of bowling alley balis,
but always continue to stay on. The
sampans clash and thrust and lever off
one another. The smaller children sit or
are jounced, in patient, impressive Ori
ental imperturbability, while the father
and the older ones poke with bamboo
poles or skillfully kick at critical stages
of the maternal tactics. Each family is a
co-operative unit, for success means rice
or no rice.
Thus for miles the immense river was
one vast, successive human ant heap,
wriggling with bamboo poles for anten-
Cjs and oars for legs. At the break of
day we had witnessed the religious de
votioua of the countless swarm, which
I consisted in discharging fire-crackers
from each separate boat to scare away the
devils. Never before had I seen on so
impressive a scale the practical applica
j tion of the maxim: "One must tight the
devil with tire;" and the spectacle inevi
tably led me to certain curious specula
tion on the relations between religion
! and business. To supply all the missals
I and breviaries for the morning devotions
' of such millions, the manufacturers of
! firecrackers in China must be on an
I absolutely colossal scale. Imagination
1 refuses to grasp the numbers of
the powder and paper mills thus
literally ''rooted aud grounded in
the faith." Now, should foreign mis
sionaries convert the millions of cus
; tomers to a creed that prescribes a less
; noisy aud more inward form of morning
devotions, what total nuancial ruin would
I stare no cud of manufacturers and work
j ing men in the face. Forthwith they
! band together to a man to destroy iv
■ blood the exrcrable superstition. A
new and vivid light thus broke on the de
scription in the Book of Acts of St. Paul's
' experience in Ephesus with makers of
: images of Diana, till, just as the streets of
I that city rang with the cry, "Great is
Diaua of tho Ephesians !" so I seemed to
hear all over China a mob of hoarse and
i ferocious voices shouting, "Great is the
firecracker as a uevil lighter!" Thus to a
thoughtful mind may foreign travel be
uiade to aid the cause of scriptural exe
gesis. To see a iamiliaT and threadbare
principle tricked out iv a brand new suit
1 of clothes is a wonderful stimulant to the
I traditional mind.
PRACTICAL FERTILIZERS.
Restoring Wornont Acres by the Ap
pliCiitiuu of Mineral Constituents.
About ten years ago Julius Hensel of
Germany, a physiological chemist of
great reputation, hrst promulgated the
idea that the reason so many farms at the
present day produce Birialler and more
inferior crops than in times past despite
a lavish use of stable manure and other
fertilizers is due to the fact that the min
eral constituents of the fields have been
sio'vly but Burely takeu out of the soil,
and that while stable manure, super
phosphates, etc., furnish an abundance of
nitrogenous elements to the plants they
are woefully deficient in the mineral food
so necessary to the growing of healthy
and abundant crops.
He maintained that the very thing
which the farmers are co anxious to re
move from their fields, the rocks and
stones, if put back in assimilable form —
i. c., in a finely pulverized state —will be
of immense benefit to the soil, and that
their persistent application iv that form
I will restore seemiugly wornout acres to
! their former natural fertility. In order
to test the truth of his idea he analyzed
the ashes of wheat, rye, corn, potatoes,
clover, grasses, etc., and from these he
ascertained the mineral constituents of
the grains, etc., and by supplying these
to the soil found that his claims were
abundantly confirmed by large and
healthy crops.
He maintains that the soil of the val
leys and plains, which are most fertile,
were formed primarily of disintegrated
rocks washed down through ages from
the mountains. Vegetation ensued, and
after its decay becoming mixed with the
innnitesimally small particles of rooks,
furnished the ideal plant food.
His views, promulgated with all the
power of earnest conviction, soon aroused
the interest of some intelligent and pro
gressive farmers. Experiments were
made with most surprising and satisfac
tory results. An enterprisiug man was
induced to engage in tho manufacture of
these fertilizers in a small way, aud the
results have been simply astonishing.
This discovery has most docidedly
passed the experimental stage, aud it be
hooves the farmers of the eastern part of
this country to investigate this most im
portant discovery, which may point tue
way to counteract the cheaply raised
grain on the low-priced lands of the
West. It is claimed by the best authority
that by means of this discovery they can
not only increase the quality of their
grain aud other crops, but the yield also,
and in many cases threefold, at a small
cost.
Experience has demonstrated that tho
annual application of from 1,000 to
1,200 pounds of the proper fertilizer per
acre is as much as is necessary, and the
eilects will become more and more mani
fest from year to year.
COMMERCIAL.
The Volume of Trade in Wheat Both
Light and Slow.
Mora Activity Beginning: to Develop
In Oats, In the Belief That Trade
Will Shortly Improve.
San Francisco, July 6th.
The volume of trade in Wheat is both light
and. slow at yO@92>£c for good to choice ex
port quality, with milling descriptions selling
at $1.;, i 10.
Millers took choice old Feed Barley at a
■mall advance in preference to new. It is re
ported that shippers are looking for new
Brewing at about UOc, though not obtaining
much, if any, at that figure.
More activity is beginning to develop in
the belief that improvement in trade is near
at hand. Receipts have been somewhat small
lor quite a while, and more or less lowering of
stocks has rebUlted in consequence.
