THE DOG A.re Dogs ?Property Greenvil The Supreme Court will be called to | decide the question whether a dog is j property in South Carolina. The Su preme Court may be a very wise and wonderful assortment but it does not seem to understand the dog question. Any man who knows anything about ' dogs knows that the question whether a dog is property does not depend at all on the law and does depend en tirely on the individual dog, and the ideas and purposes of his owner.* ? dog which can do things and add to the sum of human happiness and assist in making life worth living is property, and mighty good property, and his owner, if he be worthy of such a possession, regards him as an avail . able, asset, puts .a distinct commercial yal?ation upo_n him and is ready to fight for him, jie" for him and in rare | eases, even, to pay taxes on him. It. ia not often that affection and faith rush to this desperate extreme, but there are such instances on record. We once knew a big," red dog named Bob. He wis by profession a possum hunter and he \ devoted his time and thought to thai business- with assidui ty whiph won success and honors for ' Hm'., \ He waa a serious dog and api paren tly spent much of .his life in the deep consideration of problems about possums. Waile other dogs" slept he thought. His work was to him a joy. Like Jim Bludso, he ; never flunked ~ and he: never, lied-never came'fur ??*'lively crawling at the. rear of the pro cession, never sneaked behind the colored person with ^he bag or dodged ^ out of the range, of the light of the torches* In the woods where dark ness was deepest or brambles were thickest his faithful, tireless foot falls rustled the dead leaves, his nose down enquiring of each spot of ground for the scent of the sbft treading, prowl . ihg, wandering game; Oth.er.and more : . frivolous dogs might tafe backtracks.[ \ V^JCT. even chases off after cats or rabbins, i but.not so Bob. The one weakness in ?is character was a tendency to coons, : : but when he struck a coon track he . ' said "coon" and if no encouraging -' snouts and whoops responded to his announcement he would quickly turn from that dangerous and tortuous career and rei ume his strict attention to, business. It was a delight to see him work. - He had a" large and kindly tolerance forinferior dogs and'would investigate; with unwearied diligence the 'possum reports they from fcime to time threw out.: He never hurried. Exploring his own conscience he knew that he had never in Ms life struck a trail and lost his bird. He attacked the opera f\ lion of picking up the track with gravity becoming its importance and the responsibility attaching to it. He 1 compared'with, his well balanced nose the flavor pf .each foot fall, each place where possum hide had touched, may be hours before. 'When he. found it distinct and growing and ' judicially determined in his own mind that he was right-hs opened up. Those who knew him always waited to hear what he had to . say. However loud and general the baying and yelping of the . balance' of the pack*, might be, the white and colored personsoff in the woods waited still and silent to hear from Bob. He began always with one triumphant,- booming canine shout in one syllable, and then he.t?ok the lead and made the woods ring with his yells of exultation and'his threats and denunciations to the doomed foe gal loping anxiously on into the darkness far ahead., Bob was, property and real .property ' at that. He. was respected 'by biped and. quadruped. He had business and attended to it. He had a definite standing in the community and a purpose in life and responsibili ties which he understood and lived up to. When he treed he was always right and he judged from the lay of the ground where the fall and catch would be and got there in time. - But there are other dogs. .Also there ' are other people. Some folks actually attach value to pugs and poodles and animals of that kind are, we suppose, property to tihose who like them. The big strong brindle cur with honest brown eyes who supervises county premises at night and comes to town under the wagon and is incited to have fights in wagon lots by town boys who obligingly hunt up antagonists for him, also has a place and function and a value, and may be property. There are other dogs, big and little, which are of. recognized families and known qualities, and they, perhaps, are property. But the multitude-the masses of canine citizenship, the indescribable, indiscriminate, mingled, blended, crossed and criss-crossed and crazy quilted many! What of them ? We ave all familiar with th*! affilia tion between dogs and poverty, the mysterious inclination of men to in crease their accumulations of dogs with the increase of their debts and the disappearance of their incomes. I iCA fool for luck and a poor man for j children and dogs" ;s a maxim known ! OUESTION. in Scmth Carolina P lie Neics. I to everybody. Dogs seem to be a re sort of desperation and to gather and cluster and increase about the home j of utter, barren absolute poverty. We have always thought this curious ten dency .to be the origin of the saying that a man has gone to the dogs. When he is absolutely ruined and penniless he begins to acquire and at tract dogs. In some experiences in distributing public bounty we have found a family of seven needing cloth ing, food and fuel and with the barest apology of shelter happy in the pos session of fourteen dogs representing fourteen separate and distinct varieties o? eccentric and obscure ancestry. A familiar character in the streets of Greenville is an elderly woman whose weekly rent is twenty-five cents, which she acquires usually by forced loans from the Greenville News office. She has a personal stan! of four dogs, two of them females with most amazing capacities for reproduction-one of ?hem very -small and, white and with chronically sore eyes. This interest ing animal, within oar knowledge of her, has been the mother of thirty odd interesting dogs, most of them white and with sore eyes and tendencies to snap at the public. Are these.prop erty ? If it is so decreed by the Su preme Court the increase of values for taxation in ?he State will be enormous, but there will be no corresponding in crease of revenue. The people who do most laboriously and affectionately acquire dogs will never yield np those possessions. They will rather call the miscellaneous and variegated as sortment of their howling, yelping, snapping, furtive train about them and move over the State line to escape the sheriff. For if a dog is property he must not be destroyed. When taxes on him are not paid h? must be seized in dueoform and course of law and offered for sale'and if not sold bid ia-which;will make the sheriff's of fice a joy and be delightful for the State. We suggest that if ?he Su preme Court decides that dogs are property, all dogs seized be turned over to th? Supreme Court for its amusement and enrichment, by enact ment of the legislature. There is unusual activity in the dog market in Greenville just now. The soldiers caused the boom in this direc tion. A most remarkable collection of dogs of varying sizes and many de grees, and some of them: representing in one individual every kind of dog that was ever invented or heard of, gathered about the camps where there were idle men to play with and other idle dogs to fight with and unlimited supplies of. free food/ Now they are left forlorn and stranded and are wan dering about-the riff raff and tramp elements of. the dog 'population of three States. Are these property? If so, whose?'. Have the titles to them passed to the United States from the mustered out and gone soldiers? Are the frisking fice and the bench legged curs, the rabbit chasers of sum mer and incorrigible loafers of winter, dogs which take back tracks and tree wrong, misfit hounds which can not smell anything less pungent than a bacon rind, setters and pointers which sulk and wag their tails amiably and helplessly when they are supposed to be hunting-are all these property? Are any members of the Supreme Court dog men? Do they know a dog when they see-one? Do they under stand the fine discriminations as among dogs which have purpose, sig nificance and worth and those which arejjust dogs? - ''Are you going to be an old maid now, Ethel?" asked thc young lady's 10-year-old sister. "Why, certainly not, you silly child," she replied. "I shall masry Mr; Spooner, of course." "But you can't now." :'Why not?" "Isn't he a bachelor?" "Yes." "And he joined the church, this morning." "I know it." "And he was confirmed." "I know that, also." "Well, doesn't that make him a confirmed bachelor?" - In Germany a clock has been made that is warranted to go for 9,000 years. - "Isn't Maud a rather uncertain friend?"

Many old soldiers now feel the effects of the hard service they endur ed during the war. Mr. Geo. S. An derson, of Rossville, York County. Penn., who saw the hardest kind of service at the front, is now frequently troubled with rheumatism. "I had a severe attack lately," he says, "and procured a bottle of Chamberlain's Pain Balm. It did so much good that I would like to know what you would charge me for one dozen bottles." Mr. Anderson wanted it both for his own use and to supply it to his friends and neighbors, as every family should have a bottle of it in their home, not only for rheumatism, but iame back, sprain;?, swellings, cut?, bruises and burns, for which it is unequalled; For sale by Hill-Orr Drug Co. He Wasn't Sure. A clergyman was telling anecdotes of incidents in Ms early life a^s a pas tor, says the New York Tribune. One of them was about a marriage cere mony which he once performed. A young man of the country district came to the pastor one day. "I want to get married," he said, "and I guess I've got about as good a woman as there is around this part of the State. Can you marry us ?" The clergyman thought he could, and so the young man went away and soon returned with his bride. They both took the affair very coolly, and when the ceremony was over the bridegroom took the clergyman aside. "I don't want to drive any bargain at a time like this," he said ; "but of course I ain't sure this marriage busi ness is going to prove all that I expect of it. How would half cash now, one fourth in one month, and the rest in two months, after I have had a fair chance to see if I got a good bagain, suit you ?" "Well," said the pastor, "if that seems fair to you, I am willing. You seem to be a prosperous young man. We'll say ten dollars now, five dollars in one month, and five dollars in two months." "That's a go," answered the happy bridegroom, and he handed over ten dollars. At the end of a month he returned with five dollars more. "I ain't sure," he said a little doubt fully, "about it yet ; but I'm willing to give you the benefit of the doubt and to make the second payment. You see," he added, "while I have my own doubts about the blessings of mar ried life, I don't know as it's going to make much difference. I ain't just so sure as I was that I could get out of this thing now if I wanted to. She's got an opinion of her own," he said, with a faint grin ; "and if she says we have got to keep on being married, I guess I'll have to go at that. "You aren't thinking of getting a divorce, are you ?" asked the clergy man. "Oh, no ; at least not just yet." "Of what faults in your wife do you complain?" "Oh, nothing in particular." "Why are you dissatisfied then?" "I ain't just dissatisfied. I say I haven't made up iny mind yet." "Why shouldn't you know one way or the other ?" "Well, to tell the .honest truth., I don't believe itfwould do any good. I'm afraid whatever she decides will settle it." Then he went off looking rather puzzled over the problem. At the end of the second month there came a knock at the door, and the pastor himself answered it. The bride was standing there, and about five feet behind her was he: doubting husband. "My husband owes you five dollars, doesn't he?" she asked sharply. "Well," answered the pastor with a smile, "I am not so sure about that point." "Yes, he does," she said firmly. "He owes you five dollars. Henry, wasn't your bargain that five dollars should be paid at the end of the second month if the marriage was satisfac tory?" "Yes," said the husband weekly. "And it's satisfactory, ain't it?" Henry looked at the pastor. "It's satisfactory, ain't it?" she re peated. a\-e-s," said the husband looking down at his boots. "I thought so," cried the wife tri umphantly. "Now pay him that five dollars." ' The husband handed a bill to the clergyman, and said to him, in a low voice : "I ain't quite sure yet, one way or the other ; but she's got me, and I guess she means to hang on to me. So I'll just have to worry along till she dies or I get a chance to run away!" - Schlatter, the "divine healer," who is now in Boston, announced upon arriving in that city that he proposed to be buried for forty days at a depth of one hundred feet, and that God would resurrect him at the end of the period named. The board of health however, refused to issue a burial per mit unless a certificate of death should be filed. Of course, this action of the board was a great surprise to the "divine healer''-at any rate he said it was-and so the credulous people who bad counted upon witnessing the interment were disappointed. - A story is going the rounds of the Western papers to the effect that a justice of the peace in Kansas re cently presided at the "hearing" of the corpse of a man who had been found drowned, with a revolver on his person and S50 in his pocket.

A minister's wife, who is not so seriously minded at all times as her husband is, tells some laughable sto ries relating to marriage ceremonies which he performed while they were living in a newly settled district in the backwoods of Canada. The minister always felt it to be his duty to give each young couple a lit tle serious advice before he performed the marriage ceremony, and for this purpose he utually took them aside, one at a time, and talked very soberly to each of them regarding the great importance of the step they were to take and the new responsibilities they were to assume. One day he talked in his most ear nest manner for several minutes to a young woman who had come to be married. "And now," he said, in closing, "I hope you fully realiee the extreme im portance of thc step you are taking, and that you are prepared for it." "Prepared?" she said, innocently; "well, if I ain't prepared, I don't know who is.
