I was in a small town In Jersey, and In walking down tbo street ono day I saw an cldorly man carrying a small hlaok Mill tnn dog wrapped In n sort of n blanket which had been made ospcclallr far It. I approached tho man and ven turud.thnt ho must think n great deal ol tho dog from tho care ho took of it. 'A great doal,' said tho old fellow. 'Why, if ho was my son I could not think moro of him. Uo has actually a human Intelli gence' I told him I had hoard of such cases beforo, but had always attributed tho show of intelligence to a well dovlsod trick. 'Well,' continued tbo old man, 'my friend, I can provo to you that this dog really does reason. Ho will do anything you tell him to, discriminate uotween ob Jocts and mon, and, In fact, show an In telllgcnco which will surprlso you.' lis this tlmo three or four men passing by, hearing tho conversation, became. Interest ed nnd stopped. Tho owner of tho dog thon took a llttlo sqnnro piece of black flannel from his pocket and spread It Upon tho pavement. Ho then placed tho dog upon It and asked mo to tell him to pick out any one in tho crowd by the description I should glvo of blm. I then spoko to tho dog, 'Pick out the man who I1113 tho red mustache and red nocktlcand wcattojilij light ohooked trousers.' "I referrotl to a man In tho rear ot tha crowd. Tho llttlo dog sat up, nnd raising his oars looked all about tho crowd. Then, as soon ns ho splod the man, ho ran lo him and jumped up, putting his foro paws on tho man's logs. I tried this several times on dltloront people, and never onco did tho dog mako n mlstako. Then tho dog was asked his age, and by a number of barks told It. lie then did 501110 addition and subtraction. I thon told tho man that I thought there was somo trick abont it, so ho said ho would convince mo fully that tho dog renlly reasoned. 'Now, ' said ho, 'tell him to go to any object you mny eoo within two blocks of horo nnd toll him to point it nut by placing his foot upon It whon ho finds It. I will go into this storo, out of his sight, so that thero will bo no ohuuco of my giving n signal.' Aftor tha man had retired I noticed a bicycle, lean tng against a post about a block and a half up the road. I turned to tho dog and said slowly, 'Go find a blcyclo up tho road, and when you come to It put your hind feet on the back wheel.' Tho dog started on a lazy walk, looking all about him in tho direction of tho blcyclo, and when ho saw it ho broko Into a llttlo trot. Ho thon set his foot on tho hind wheel and stood In this position looking townrd us until a shout of approbation told him ho was cor rect, whon lie got down and rnn toward ns as fast as he could. When ho reached us, ho Jumped up and down, seeming pleased with bis accomplishment. Ot course there was no room left for mo to doubt I had to believe that If I ever was to believe anything. After this the dog pointed out nn open carr'age from a num her of vehicles; also a drug store and a grocery from a block of miscellaneous stores. Ills scope of tricks, If thoy could be so oalled, seemed unlimited. He was able to do anything that was told tilm Tho man told me his education had been llko a child's. At first hooould tell but one object, nnd by degrees he was taught to know more until out of 86 various ar ticles placed In a room he oould plok out any one tliat would be mentioned," Pittsburg Dispatch.
