SUNSET.
After a day of tempest.
A battle of wind and rain.
Just w in n the eloom was thickest.
The uu shone forth sKain.
Lit with a Maze of Rlory
The track of the Mu-thinc; waves:
Fell like an aturel'H blenaitur
On the detmlate church-yard graves;
Gave heart of hope to the flaher
Wearily farimr home:
Driirhtened the brow of the pood wife
Watching till he should come.
And the words of the Holy Scripture
Were borne to my soul arain
As I thought of the wonderful gladness
Of Buuabine after rain;
And thought that ever the Master,
As once in Galilee,
la ready to calm the tumult ,
Of storm on land'or sea.
And yet when the ploom la thicket.
And the day Li almost done.
He sends us cheer and courage
In the gleam of the setting .un.

The pafjes of history from the ear
liest times record with honorable men
tion the services of dogs as auxiliaries
in war. They were utilized in the
Greek and Roman armies, and Corinth
is said to have been saved by fifty war
dogs. Kinff llenry VIII. employed
bloodhounds in France, and the Karl
of Sussex had no less than eight hun
dred of them in Elizabeth's array in Ire
land. SL Malo, when it formed a sep
arate republic, was guarded by three
hundred doffs. Philip V., in 17W, at
Mount J'liillippi and at . the fort of
Etoile. fed the dogs which were at the
gates and which remained nncared for
by the Austrians, and afterwards
turned them to useful account as auxil
iary sentinels and for accompanying
the patrols. In 177S the Turks were
greatly helped by dogs both at the
siege of Dubitza and at Gino lierdo.
They used them as a cordon to guard
their ramps and later to track the un
fortunate inhabitants of the countries
they were devastating. There is a fine
for killing a dog in Turkey, and it is
exacted as follows: Tlie dead dog is
tied up by the tail with his fore
patvs touching the ground, and the fine
consists of as much corn as will cover
the dog in that position.
Iluring the siege of Sebastopol the
French on several occasions received
alarms of sorties through the watchful
ness of a dog called Minette. The fame
of the French military dog Moustache
is renowned. When encamped with
his regiraont before Alexandria, the
first night he was tlie means of detect
ing a surprise; he fought at Marengo,
ami saved the standard of his regiment
at Austerlitz, for which service he was
decorated on the battlefield by Marshal
I .an ties, lie captured an Austrian ser
geant, and brought two pri
vates as prisoners into camp. He
served also in the Spanish cam
paign and was the means of de
tecting several ambushes. At dress
parades he invariably appeared at the
head of the regiment, conducting him
self with soldierly dignity. He bore
on his body many honorable scars of
hot encounters, and was finally killed
by a bullet directly after the siege of
Itadajoz.
(icu. Skobeleff, in Asia Minor, had &
corps of dogs instructed as pen trios,
and they are now used in the artillery
and other branches of the service. The
Germans began experimenting with
dogs in 1SS5, instructing them on out
post duty. A Jager battalion has about
tueuty dogs of all sizes stationed with
I
the advance guard. The Germans
dress men in French and Russian uni
forms (aud the French have recourse to
similar tactics) who lie in wait and
frighten the dogs, so as to impress
them at once with the appearance of
an enemy. A well-trained collie in a
German regiment on the approach of
anyone he does not know, will hide in
the nearest ditch and will wait until he
passes, the dog will then continue his
journey only to repeat the process
should he be again interrupted.
It was a maxim with Frederick the
Great that it was pardonable to be de
feated, but never to be surprised. When
troops are wearied by long marches,
and sentries besides being fatigued
have in addition to struggle against
hunger and severe cold, in such cases
the aid of well-trained military dogs
would be appreciated by any prudent
commander. It has been ascertained
that on a calm night dogs can with cer
tainty detect the approach of strangers
up to five hundred yards, and in stormy
weather they will scent an enemy
within two hundred j-ards and can
distinguish friend from foe.
Regarding the breed of dogs best
adapted for military purposes, it is con
ceded that the farmers' sheep dog has
the finest qualities). The retriever
makes a good war dog, and spaniels
have much to recommend them. In
Germany they are considered second
to the sheep dog. Iiloodhounds have
no sujierior when it comes to tracking,
n Austria the Dalmatian has been
ained; Russia prefers the Caucasian
og; Turkey selects the Asiatic sheep
og, aud Italy, like England, is ex per i
enting with various breeds.
On the wall of the reading-room of
ow street police office, London, hangs
he portrait of a remarkable dog. One
day in August, 1So7, an old. starved,
homeless animal took up his quarters
on the steps of a seldom-used door con
nected with the office. As neither dog
nor man had a right to loiter in that
doorway, the superintendent gave or
ers that he should be made to move
n. As often as he was driven off,
owever, he reappeared. The men of
he division became at last very much
ttached to the dog and adopted him in
he corps, bestowing upon him the
lame of Charlie. At a quarter before
lix every morning the first day relief
was paraded in the yard of the station,
previous to setting out on duty at six.
At that hour, and at every parade, day
or night, Charlie was always present,
marching up and down in front of the
line with all the importance of a
drill sergeant. Parade over, Char
lie would head the relief in its
march round the beats and then
went on a tour of inspection,
walking for awhile with this or
thai specially favored policeman.
Charlie was also known as the "White
Sergeant," and on state occasions,
when the attendance of the greater
part of the division was required, a
sergeant's armlet was buckled around
his neck, and he appeared to be very
proud of the decoration- At the Vic
toria Cross presentation in Hyde Park
thirty-five hundred of the police were
on the ground. Charlie had been de
tained at the station, having lieen ac
cidentally shut in a room. As soon as
he was set free he made for the park,
working his way through the immense
crowd, and took his place at the head
of his own division. Previous to leav
ing the station his armlet had been
buckled on, and as he sat, stiff and
erect as an old soldier, in front of the
long line of constables, the queen, as
she passed along the park, noticed the
dog and smiled. After performing his
duties faithfully as sergeant for nearly
eight years, Charlie died in front of the
mess room fire.
The patient submission of dogs to
surgical treatment is well known. Mr.
George Fleming, veterinary surgeon of
the Second Life guards, operated on a
fine pointer, having a large, hard,
fibrous tumor of the breast, with deep
and far reaching roots. During the op
eration the animal displayed an amount
of patience that would have been cred
itable to a human being. Even during
the most painful part of the proceed
ing, that of inserting the sutures, the
dog never flinched. The same resigna
tion was displayed when the time for
dressing the wound came round, and
he would place himself in position for
the surgeon. ,
The frontier of France abounds in
smugglers and the resources of the
contraband traders are called into ac
tivity. They have trained packs of
dogs to carry prohibited goods across
the line. The dogs are kept without
food many hours; they are then beaten
and laden with goods, and are started
on their travels as soon as it is dark.
When they reach the abodes of
their masters they are well treat
ed, and receive a good meaL
According to the accounts of the
sFrench custom house, on an average
fifty thousand of the dog smugglers are
destroyed annually, on which account
fifty thousand francs, as premiums,
were paid to the customs officials.
The intelligence, bravery and endur
ance of dogs have been attested in all
ages and countries, and their fitness
and value for military purposes has
passed beyond the experimental point.
In the event of an European war they
will be found operating in large num
bers with th various arms of the serv
ice, and they have. received training as
auxiliary sentinels; as scouts or the
march, 011 reconnaissance, and patrol
duties; as dispatch carriers, on the
march, in camp, and in action; as
auxiliary ammunition carriers, on the
march and in action; as searchers for
the wounded and killed after an en
gagement, and for lookouts on men of
war of all descriptions.
In support of the value of dogs cover
ing the duties in connection with mili
tary operations, a great many reasons
might lie advanced that have not lieen
touched upon; but the average military
man who has given the subject any
thought or study will scarcely deny
the fact that trained dogs for the art
of war can be made as useful as the
skilled hunting pack to the sportsmen.

OLD IULLS MADE NEW.
TJnclo Sam
Is a Very Honest
Gentleman.
Old
lie Will til re rrlap New Note, for Old and
Mutilated Currency Kven Money To
tally Destroyed Is Sometimes
Made flood by lllm.
The amount of money in the shape
of bank notes and bills that are lost or
destroyed every year is enormous.
Nearly all of this is a clear gain to the
government. If a man throws a twen-ty-dollar-bill
into the fire with a lot of
paper, and realizes too late that flames
are no respecters of persons or papers,
he may tell of it as a rather rough joke
on himself, but he gives it up as lost
nine times out of ten, and pays no more
attention to it- If he saves a small
part of the bill he may perhaps think
it worth something and goes to inquire
about it. If he does he stands a good
chance of recovering his entire loss.
The law upon the subject is quite
plain, and one that people ought to lie
informed upon. The paper issued by
the government and called money is of
course merely a makeshift. A gold
certificate for ten dollars is merely a
promise on the part of the government
at Washington to pay the bearer ten
dollars in gold when he presents that
certificate at the treasury office. If
that certificate is never presented and
no demand is made for the gold it rep
resents the gold remains in the vaults,
and the government is ultimately that
much ahead. When bills become worn
or in any way unfit for circulation the
treasury or any of the sub-treasuries in
the country are not only willing but
glad of the chance to make an ex
change, and thereby put good bills in
circulation. United States notes, frac
tional currency notes, gold certificates,
silver certificates and treasury notes of
15'JO are all redeemable by the I'nited
States treasurer. The assistant trt us
urers at the different suli-treasury
offices are also authorized to rejeem
these bills, provided the bill retains
three-fifths of its original p:-otor-tions.
If. however, more than two
fifths of the bill is gone the ussistant
treasurers have no authority to act,
and the matter must go before the
treasurer. If two-fifths of the original
proportions of the bill remain and a
possibility exists that the remainder is
still in existence, then the United
States treasurer will redeem the muti
lated currency at one-half the face
value.
There are circumstances, however,
under which the entire sum lost will
be made good by the government if
the treasurer is thoroughly satisfied
that the bills have been entirely de
stroyed. This fact has to be made
clear by the party asking for the re
demption of the destroyed money; a
detailed description of the circum
stances must be given; it must all be
sworn to, and the good character of
the person making the application
must be satisfactorily showu by some
officer with a seaL Even after all this
is done, the matter is still left discre
tionary with the treasurer as to
whether he will make the loss good or
not. The wording of the law closes
with the provision that "The treasurer
will exercise such discretion under
this regulation as may seem to him to
protect the United States from fraud."
These provisions do not refer to the
national bank notes, which, when less
than three-fifths of a bill remains,
mrst lie presented to the bank of issue.
The main reason for this law allow
ing the redemption of mutilated cur
rency is that the government loses
nothing by it. As already stated, the
piece of paper is simply a promise to
pay, and if this evidence of a nation's
indebtedness is entirely destroyed the
government, as a matter of honesty,
will give the owner a new evidence of
the same indebtedness. The former be
ing destroyed, there would be no pos
sibility of the government haviug to
pay the same debt twice. The same
reason applies to the redemption of a
bill with a part torn off. It can lie re
deemed at its face value only when
clearly three-fifths remain, and if any
one should present the other part
(which is less than three-fifths) he
could get nothing at all for it uniess
showing clearly and satisfactorily that
the first portion had lieen destroyed, lu
this way the government protects itself
entirely, and at tlie same time does
what it can to shield its creditors and
protect them from loss.
Very few people know the law on
the subject, the general opinion lieing
that when money is too badly used up
to lie kept in circulation it is practi
cally useless. A man came into the SL
Louis sub-treasury not long since aud
showed a numlrcr of badly used-up
bills, as he asked if they were worth
anything. The officers were busy a
the time, and, as the bills were quite
badly mutilated, he was told to come
liack at five o'clock and tlie matter
would lie looked into. As he went out
the door he remarked to a friend that
he guessed it wasn't worth while, as it
probably wouldn't amount to anything,
and so he never came hack. The same
sort of an incident came under the ol
servation of R. 1 tar low, the notary
public in Cashier Hayes office at the
post office, about a month ago. A gen
tleman who had fallen Into the river
had so completely saturated hia clothes
that when he was pulling some paper
out of one of his pockets (forgetting
thirty dollars in currency) he tore the
money all to pieces and had only a wet,
soggy mass left- He was referred by
the treasury department to Mr. Harlow
in order to furnish a necessary affida
vit, and. when he found it nouU take
some little time, work and patience, he
said he wanted to start to Philadelphia
that night, and he guessed he wouldn't
take the trouble on the slim chains, of
getting anything. In this and all sim
ilar cases the real feeling of the appli
cant almost invariably Is that any ef
fort to regain what is lost is simply
time thrown away, and so he dismisses
the matter.
M.r Harlow, mentioned aliove as lie
ing connected with tlie cashier's ofliee
in the post offic department, has a
great many applications for assistance
in getting mutilated currency re
deenietL and as he prepares the nffi-
davits for the parties he makes him
self thoroughly acquainted with the
circumstances of each, ami can narrate
some interesting cases. An old matt
living out in this county came in one
day heartbroken over the loss of sev
eral thousand dollars which lie had
placed under the hearth for safe-keeping,
and which mice had almost totally
destroyed. It took some correspond
ence, but he finally got new bills for
the old ones Another man had twist
ed up a wal of paper without looking
at it and lighted his cigar, when he
found that his new cigar-lighter was a
ten-dollar bilL An interesting case was
that of an old negro from down in one
of the adjoining counties, who was at
the Union depot alniut a jear ago
buying a ticket home. He had a roll
of bills in his hands and a
couple of St. Louis toughs jumped
on him and tried to rob him.
In the scramble that ensued the bills
were torn to shreds and the pieces
strewn over the floor, but the old ne
gro held onto most of his wealth, while
the thieves, failing in their attempt,
made their escape. The African's
wails over his mibfortune brought tlie
suggestion from some one that maylc
the treasury officials would help him,
and he went up to inquire. A few
affidavits and a little time brought him
an entirely new lot of bills in exchange
for the pieces. Mary Davis, an elderly
negro woman living over on Morgan
street, came to Mr. Harlow some
months ago "in a peck o' trouble." She
had a twenty-dollar bill, which she
was treasuring as the apple of her eye,
and lieing about to make a visit one
Sunday afternoon she thought the best
place for her fortune would lie in the
oven of her stove, where she carefully
placed it. Returning late in the even
ing she built a fire without thinking
of her treasure, and it was some time
afterwards that she attracted the at
tention of the household and her
neighliors by dashing water over the
hot stove and screaming at the top of
her voice. The charred remains of the
bill were nearly destroyed by the
water, but enough was saved to sat
isfy the government as to thi truth of
the story, and Mary got a brand new
twenty-dollar bi'L
Perhaps the most interesting case
that has come up before the depart
ment in St. Louis was the one of young
Miss II., which was taken before Mr.
Harlow for an affidavit some months
ago. Her father, who lives out on Dor
cas street, and is an employe in one of
the wholesale drag houses, had made
her presents of little sums till siie had
sixty-five or seventy dollars saved
up. Her pet dog one day got hold of
it, and when his young mistress came
in it was all torn to pieces and most of
it chewed into pulp. She was in terri
ble distress, and not wishing her papa
to know of her loss, she, ut the sug
gestion of a friend, applied to the sub
treasury. Part of the pieces were
large enough to come within the three
fifths rule, and so about one-third of
the amount was cashed at once. The
rest had to go through the process of
satisfactory proof, but in due time she
received a draft from Washington for
the full amount.
Instances like the foregoing could be
given in great numbers, though the in
stances in which the losers "pocket"
their losses, to use an old but common
expression, are much more numerous.
The amounts range all the way from a
one dollar bill, (over which sum one'
man of some means spent two months
of correspondence a year or so ago) up
to packages containing thousands of
dollars. Perhaps the largest amount
ever redeemed at St. Louis after total
destruction was the instance which oc- .
curred about four months ago. The
treasury at Washington hud shipped
by express to the sub-treasury at that
point a paekugt of currency amounting
to forty thousand dollars. The express
car with all its contents was burned,
and the express company was responsi
ble for the loss of the forty thousand
dollars under its contract. Realizing
this, the company took Chief Clerk
Rickcr of the -sub-treasury and
had him present when the safe was
opened very carefully, and the charred
remains of the money examined. The
packages could le plainly seen and
identified as to the amounts, a paper
when burned will sometimes retain its
lettering, and so these bundles of
burned paper were carefully shipped to
Washington, from which point foity
thousand dollars in crisp new bills
came back.
When we realize the immense amount
of money that is lost or destroyed every
year, and never found or made good,
we can appreciate what a sum Unule
Sam has constantly accumulating for
the right side of his profit and loss ac
count Of course many losses occur
which are Vital and cannot lie made,
good, because it would be practically
impossible in some of the cases to sat
isfy the United States treasurer to such
an extent as to preclude the possi
bility of fraud. Hut there are also
many losses of money occurring all the
time which could easily be made gma
if the parties were aware of the law
and the methods of procedure. The
grand total of these losses, which ore
clear profit to the government, runs up
into the millions. Globe-Democrat.
Not Ail Imagination.
The most remarkable manifestation
of the great religious movement which
swept over this country just la-fore the
war of IM'2, was the physical and nerv
ous disorder known as "the jerks." The
jerks took their name from the fact that
the arms and legs would lie thrown
atxiut apparently by a force Wyotid
control of the individual. The disorder
was epidemic in Tennessee. A slave
owner, a man of great wealth and
prominence, and irreligious, called his
slaves together one Sunday morning,
when a camp meeting was in progress
near by, and announced his del ill
crate intention of horse-whipping any
one of their tiumWrwIm took the jerks.
"It is all imagination," he said, "and I
will whip any one of you that takes it
within an inch of his life." He went
to ranip meeting, and while conversing
with a friend In the outskirts of the
ground, was told that one of his negroes
had the jerks. Seizing his horsewhip,
he hastened toward the spot, aud,
when half way, was himself seized by
the jerks.
