New York Sun. - i Twenty-third street Tras crowded with early evening holiday shoppers. Most of them had bundles, and all of them showed that nervous hurry that char- acterizes Christmas purchasers. The one leisurely figure in the crowd was a j young man in a long frock coat, em- bellished with a bunch of carnations, the most shining of shoes, and a tall hat scarcely less shining, who had a black spaniel attached to a chain. The spaniel would have liked to be leisure- ly, too, but he had to skip about with much agility to avoid having his paws trodden on. .-.-v.V In his saunterings the young man came to a little heap of packing boxes obstructing the sidewalk. He unfast ened the dog's chain and whistled in a peculiar way. The spaniel leaped up on the highest box as if it were only a step. Instead of four feet high, and sat up with one paw at salute.The hurrying shoppers stopped as if a brick wall had appeared in front of them and gathered around the box. The young man took no notice of them. "Now, my boy," said he to the dog, "we'll have a quiet smoke. Cigarette or pipe?" As he spoke he drew one of each of these articles from his pocket. The spaniel barked when the pipe appeared. . '.'Pipe, eh?" said his master. "You're very English, chappie, aren't you? Well, I'll take the cigarette myself." ' He handed the pipe to the dog, who MANNHEIMER BROS. Woo!

Then the young man filled and lighted it, lighting his own cigarette with the same match. The dog held the pipe up and appa rently puffed at it. "Like it now, don't you?" said the young man; "but you didn't used to How did you feel when you first smoked?" Down dropped the pipe from the span- iel's mouth. He clasped his paws pa- thetically over his stomach; his ears dropped, his head hung down, and he looked like the picture of misery. The crowd roared with delight. "Why, what a crowd you've gathered, old man!" said the master to his dog, in appaient astonishment. You'll have to move on- or -the police will be after you. Now say good by and hop down." Straightening up, the performer made a military salute first to one side, then to th 3 other, and with a joyful bark jumped down and joined his master as he sauntered on. "What are you advertising, mister?" called one of the crowd. But the young man only smiled and turned up Broadway.
