Origin of Names of Dogs.
There, are not ninny boys or girl,
or K"'n follia, either, fur that mat
ter, who know how (ho breed names
of dona llrst on nit- Into common use.
For Instance, tho spaniel In so-culled
because lli first types of thin beauti
ful and Intelligent Hiilmul arrived In
KiiKland from Spuln and wero culled
Spunlsh dH?s.
The beautiful Hlenheim spaniel Ik
mined after Illenhelm palace, where
this dog first was mnilc fiiKhiomtblp
In the time of tho Rivnt Marlborough.
The Klin? Churlus, as might be guess
ed, owes Us name to tho merry mon
nrch.
The sltye terrier was originally bred
In the Islo. of Skye. and the Scotch
terrier,' of course. In Scotland.
Many other dogs show the original
pliire of their breeding or develop
ment by their names, such as the
Ireiit Dane, the Newfoundland, Sibe
rian bloodhound, und so on.
Tho masllIT means "house-dog," nr
doubt because of his great strength
and size and ubillty to guard the
home.
Poodle means "waddle," nlthougl:
these pretty little pets of to-day don't
uecm to partake of any ancestral
clumsiness.
A Wingless Bird.
Far away on tho other side of thr
world, in New Zealand, thero is I
most curious species of bird, whlc!
has neither wings nor a tall. Wha
do you think of that? There are ver:
tew of these strange creatures left
oven on their native Islnnd. but the!
cousins, tho Ki-wls, are still muneroir
in Australia. The ki-wi gets its nam
from its peculiar cry, which sound:
like "ki-wi, ki-wi."
The learned name of this bird I
apteryx. It. has feathers that rescn
Me coarse hairs, and has a long bill
by which it secures its food easily
It lives on insects and worms, whlc!
it catches on the ground in its night
ly rambles, for this bird only goe
abroad at night and hides during th
day. In sl.o it is about as largo as r
goose, the feathers on its head belli;
short, but those on tho body increm
ing in length. Altogether, it is i
nueer-looklng creature, and as it ha:
10 little means of defending itself, i
falls an easy prey to larger am
stronger beasts.
A Water Treadmill.
The men who work in tho great
logging camps in the West and North
west, where miles ami miles of grea'
logs are floated down tho rivers U
sawmills below, have a peculia:
t-port. They grow so at. home on slii
uiiirtinir loirs rolling and tosslnj
about in tho swift current that the;
can leap from one to nnother and rid
on them like circus performers whlh
Greeting their course around a bom
or bad place in tho river. These
"loggers" make a specialty of stand
ing on a log and making it roll, firs!
forward, then backward, by leaninp
one way or tho other, and standing ot
die log nearest tho direction tho
wish it to roll. They can even makr
the log roll through tho water lik
a wheel or hoop rolling over thr
ground.
Sometime when you are "in swim

stand on it. Yon will be Furi.ri.--ed to

Plndertoy.
Scissors and a pin only needed. This
prattling parrot If cut out and fasten-
d together with a pin will make a
very attructlvo toy. If you push tne
oln firmly into a cork or the end of a
:tick und paste the pieces on un old
Isiting enrd before the pieces are cut
.ut, this piudertoy will last longer.
Butterflies of the Sea.
If you visit any of the seaside towns
outh of Cape Cod perhaps you will
o so fortunate as to see a flock
f sea butterflies flitting through the
lue water on some fair day. You
urtainly will pick up some of their
mpty houses on the beach.
Those shade from pure white,
hrough buff, lemon, orange and coffee
olor to dark brown. You can make
iany pretty souvenirs with them.
These "butterflies" are not butter
lies nt all, however, but are molluscs,
ping nothing more nor less than
callops.
Tho "butterflies" live among the
el g:-uis, and by rapidly opening and
hutting the two halves of their shells
nd thus squirting out tho water, they
an dart swiftly through the sea.
The shells are prettily fringed and
ach "butterfly" has thirty silvery
due eyes, but with all of these ho can
carcely see as much as we can with
ur two.
A Cat's Revenge.
A gentleman who was very fond of
lshing, and who usually caught a good
nt of fish, frequently promised his
,ext door neighbor to give him part
,f his catch, but. never fulfilled the
romlso. The cat of tho next door
leighbor evidently overheard the
romlse and tnougni uie n."--
ught to be made to keep his word,
nr one day when the people of both
ouses had gone out for a little while
he sneaked Into the fisherman s
,ouse, took two line large trout ho
ad Just caught and laid them on the
;:tchen table of her own mistress.
This lady returning and finding them
here, supposed that her neighbor bad
I l,l nrnilllsp. SO she PrO-
II IUSI m-pi. 1 "
ceded to clean and cook the fish for
he next meal, thanking nun, wnen
5no next saw him for his generosity.
The fisherman Is now trying to find
,emc secret method of killing the cat.

Tunnel Built Up to Escape Raiders.
Excavations ror a sewer in .miicou,
Vln.. reeentlv led to a em-lous discov
ery. A ennir of Inhorei-a was at work
tn tho rear of tbe Hotel Miller. When
about five feet down one of them
Funk his ahovoi in the earth and It
went, out of sight. Tho laborer would
have followed his Implement had a
comrade not caught him.
An Investigation showed they had
fanned a seven-l'uot tunjtol. extending
northwest and southeast. Going north
west a few hundred feet the under
cround nassacc termlni'.ted In a largo
loom, roofed with heavy timbers. This
had evidently been the entrance irom
above, for there was a manhole cut
through the timbers. Hoards had ben.i
laid across this and covered with
earth to secrete the entrance.
Tho tunnel extended to tho limits
nt the eltv in tho southwest. It wa?
carefully boarded on the sides nr.d
roofed with railroad ties. A tall man
enulrl nnss throuch without stooping.
Tho entire distance was about a mile.
The tunnel was finished from end In
end In a substantial and workman
like manned and tho wooden roof was
in a fair state of preservation.
Although no ono was aware of the
existence of this queer subterranean
avenue, it. is known that the entrance
is about the center or the old Harris
prison stockade, and it. is conjectured
that it owes its existence to military
expediency. Tho Harris house prison
acquired considerable fame of a cer
tain sort during the war. It was the
Andersonville of northern Missouri. It
had been a hotel, and was large
enough to hold several hundred pris
oners by a little crowding.
Macon was the depariment. bead
quarters for northern Missouri. On.
Lewis Merrill was commander. Mer
rill's Horse was constantly rounding
up bushwhackers, oath violators and
marauders generally. Sometimes thev
eorraled men who came under neither
head. In September. 1HA2. there wore
among the prisoners a lawyer and a
banker of unquestioned character, but
with sympathies for the South. They
wore charged with acts for which the
military law provided a death penalty.
Their guilt had been pronounced, but
it was decided to execute only ten of
the prisoners, tho unfortunates to be
drawn by lot.
The lawyer nnd the hanker had
high friends on the outside. At S
o'clock on the afternoon of the twenty
fourth day they were released and
returned home. At 4 the provost mar
shal entered the room where the con
victed were and superintended the
drawing. The ten drawing the death
cards were shot the next day. The
lawyer and banker, yet following their
respective vocations, nre bulb promi
nent In Missouri to-dav.
Owing to the rigor with which the
bushwhackers were chased by Mcr
rill's Horse retaliation by the enemy
was constantly expected. Hay by day
reports came In of Intr columns
of :;tn-ri-lllas under the :.... ii."

arriving.
The bodies were laid In tbo freight-
room and on the plat form of the
North Missouri depot until tne nam
pressed uuderiskcrs, who worked
night and day on tho Job. could wake
li e colllns to convey the remains of
iho federal soldiers lo their homes
in Monroe couuty, Missouri, and Iowa.
(Jreat crowds of people went to tbo
dcMt to look at the dead soldiers and
then went home and buried ihelr valu
ables. Many left town. Kor several
days a reign of terror existed. Con
stant lookouts from church towers
wero maintained. Most of t!iu borne
guarda were away ou an expedition
and the town was practically defense
less, savo for tbo smull gurrlaou lu the
stockade.
Just ut that period the outlnw An
derson wus the most dreaded man In
Hie state. It was said that bo hud
scalped many of his victims at On
l.nlla nnd Hint death notches quite
covered his plslol stocks. It was a
hnblt among the guerrillas to make a
record of each man killed by an In
I'outatlon ou their pistolH.
While tho excitement was on O. 8.
Ilearce. a druggist, decided to savi If
possible, S'.i.f.iMi that he had In blu
i trong box. His plan was unique. Ho
drersed as a brakemnn r.nd boarded
a freight train for Qtilncy. 111., where
he Intended to put his wealth in tho
bunk. En route h carried It In hlB
boots, as tt was all In bills.
At Hunnowell tho trnln was held up
by a tyro bund of bushwhnckers, snld
to bo under tho command of Hill Ste
phens. When measured with Ander
con. Stephens was quite a gentleman.
Tho few cattlemen on tho train pass
ed up ft pot of $'!. Hearco was on
tho way car platform twisting a
brake. The leader came out and want
ed to know what ho was doing.
"Stopping tho train till you gentle
meu In thore get through," said the
druggist.
The chief said he was a gcod fellow
and patted hlni on the back. Hearce's
hoots wero not inspected and no goi
afely Into Qulncy with his wan oi
money.
In lifter years he related tho mci
,iont to one of Anderson's rough rid
ers, who had hung up his six-shooters
and settled down to a life or peuco
nd quiet,
"MnniDh!" said tho old guerrilla,
contemptuously, "that gang never
went to school. When wo wero oiu
111! the first thing we did was to
i,.f.i.-n 'em null off their boots. Men
didn't carry "money in their pockets
ihpm dnvs. If you'd a met us you u a
been $9,000 short, that's all."
Use for Her "Beggings."
If t na Sister t'rancla of the Order
of tho Sisters of Charity who rebuked
a northern general with the loiiowing
words after he had spoken severely
to her when sho asked for supplies for
wounded men..
"i?nhel or federal." for it must I j
remembered that the sisters made ,io
distinction between northern and
southern soldiers in their mXiaua
tions, "I do not know; Protestant or
Catholic. I do not. ask. They nre not
soldiers when they como to us; they
are simply suffering follow creature's,
xlich or poor, of gentle or of lowly
birth, it is not our .rovinoo to inquire
Untinil'ormed, unarmed, tide ami neip
loss we ask not on what side they
fought. Our work begins after yours
ii done. Yours the carnage, ouis uiu
i.iiifiinir nn of tho wounds. Yours the
battle, ours tho duty of caring for the
mangled left behind on the num. ice
1 want for the sick, the wounded, the
dying. I plead for all. I beg for all,
I pray for all (lod's poor sulTerliig
creatures wherever I mny find them."
"Yes, you can beg. I'll admit," ro
I timed the general. "What, do you do
with nil your beggings? It Is i.lways
more! more! never enough!"
Finally ho gave the sister nn order
on the commissary with tho remark,
Don't come bothering me again!"
In less than three weeks tho gen-
nl was taken to Hotel Dieu. a bos
iltnl in New Orleans, which was In
'lunge of the Sisters of Charity. It
was Sister Francis, who nursed him
'enderly back to life and strength.
Two months afterward she received
t cheek from the general for $I.ihhi.
villi the penitent acknowledgment. "I
think I know now whut you do with
your beggings."
