FRKELAND, PA., MARCH 21, 1898.
Big, shaggy dogs are in great de
mand in Maine, and there is money to be
made in filling orders for dogs of this
description to be shipped to the gold
regions of Alaska. So great is the de
mand that many fine St. Bernards and
mastiffs have been stolen. The chief of
police of Bangor received a letter from
a friend in Alaska, who wants a carload
of dogs for draft purposes, and offers
good prices for all that can be got
here. Two carloads of dogs from the
maritime provinces passed through
Bangor a few days ago bound for Alas
ka. There were 240 in the lot, and on
the way thither they had many fights.
The Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty to Animals stopped the train
and would not allow it to proceed until
all the dogs had been muzzled. This
done, the dogs continued on their jour
ney west.
A bride of a year was recently heard
to say that ten of her acquaintances
were to be married before Christmas,
and that as the parents of all of them
had sent her expensive wedding gifts,
she and her husband were in mucQi per
turbation about the customary return.
There is food for reflection in her com
ment that, as they lived in a small
rented house and kept but one servant,
their valuable silver was still stored in
the vault where it had been placed at
their marriage; that although the gifts
represented over $3,000, the young husr
band had to struggle for their liveli
hood, and that the most modest pres
ents they could select for their ten
friends would take his whole month's
salary.
The recent "national" irrigation con
gress, held at Lincoln, Neb., is said to
have been a spiritless, uninteresting
affair. The western farmers used to re
gard the great irrigation companies
with much hope and not a little fear,
but they seem to have learned that
they themselves can make quickest and
cheapest such dams and ditches as are
necessary to them. They seem no long
er inclined to "take stock," practically
or figuratively, in the big companies,
while the latter, except in portions of
California, seem to have but little
money of their own.
Some of the leading farmers in the
Indiana oil district are taking advan
tage of the oil boom and are using the
crude oil to feed their swine. One
furmer put some of the oil in the feed
ing trough and found the pigs became
wild for it. He finds it an excellent
preventive for cholera, and has been
able to keep his herds, while those who
do not use it have lost many animals.
The oil can be bought at the wells for
43 cents a barrel.
An eastern exchange tells the story
of an enterprising merchant w ho gilded
a lump of coal and placed it in his win
dow, labeling it "A nugget from Klon
dike—value, $9,000." lie failed to re
move this "valuable nugget" from the
window one niglit recently, and in the
morning found the window broken and
the gilded coal gone. It cost him S9O
•to replace the broken plate glass. This
is the result of deceptive advertising.
Sir Thomas J. Upton, who has just
been knighted by Queen Victoria, packs
meat in Chicago, has a tea and coffee
business in New York, manufactures
ginger ale and mineral waters in Ire
land, makes confections in London and
grows coffee and tea in Ceylon. In
other words, he is a hustler in business.
It is reported that Jam** 15. Berry,
who died the other day, was very far
from being the "millionaire tramp"
some of the newspapers called him. His
millions amounted to just $15,000, and
when lie died he did not have a cent.
It took him less than a year to throw
his money away.

divorce. This is likely to produce much
discord among the Highnotes.

GETTING TO A FIRE.
The Splendid Homes of tlie American
Fire Depnrtinentn.
F. S. Dellcubaugh writes an article
for St. Nicholas on "The Quick Horse,"
devoted to the training-of horses for the
American fire departments. Mr. Dellen
haugh says: When a fire breaks out in
America, it is necessary to reach it at
once. The telegraph was brought into
service in sending the alarm. In
Munich some years ago the method in
vogue was to hang out a red flag by day
and a red lantern by night from the top
of one of the Frauenkirche towers, on
the side in the direction of the fire; but
in America such a system would have
resulted in the destruction of the whole
town. The telegraph is the only thing
for us.
But it is not enough to know imme
diately the exact location of a fire; it
is also necessary to reach it immediate
ly. The steam fire-engine was a splen
did machine, witjf steam always up and
everything in readiness for instant de
parture, but how to secure this instant
departure was a question. Horses were
kept standing in their stalls with the
harness on, but this was not quick
enough. Each second's delay meant,
loss of life or possibly millions of prop
erty destroyed. So the first swinging
harness was invented; a harness con
trived in such away that, while always
attached to the engine or other appara
tus, it could he made to drop instantly
on the horse's back and fasten there.
This seemed to solve the question, but
there remained one more step, and this
was the training of the quick' horse.
Not only must the engine and the har
ness and the men and the horses be
ready, but the horses must be in tlie
harness at once—the operation must be
as nearly instantaneous as human in
genuity and brute intelligence together
could contrive. In every fire-engine
house in the United States to-day,
therefore, we may see and admire the
"quick" horse, sleek-limbed, elenr
eyed, with an alert, intelligent air,
standing not far from the machine of
which he is the moving power.
The casual visitor saunters in. He
thinks tlie life of a fireman is a quiet
RUNNING TO A FIRE.
and easy one, judging from the appear
ance of the quarters. All is serene.
The machines are immaculate in pol
ished brass and red paint. Some of the
men ate reading, others are playing a
game of checkers.
Suddenly there is a tihkling some
where, and the stroke, of a gong. A
snap, a click—and through the wide
open doors the various machines fly,
one after another, until the visitor
views in astonishment an empty house.
It is like magic—a wonderful "trans
formation-scene." He gazes up acd
down the street, but tlie galloping pro
cession has vanished as if it were a
dream.
The quick horse has done his duty,
and once more exhibited the power of
J organization and training. Within the
time required by the firemen of the old
en time to throw open the engine-house
doors, the complicated machines of to
day are throwing water on the flames,
and the bravo firemen, having scaled the
building with the agility of acrobats,
arc dealing well-considered blows
against the fire foe.
In almost every city there is a prac
tice-drill at least once a day in the en
gine-houses, and the visitor may have
an opportunity of inspecting the admir
able development of the American fire
ystcm and the fine horses so splendidly
rained. And he may also have an op
portunity nt. tlie same time of lament
ing that other branches of our public
service are not conducted with equal
efficiency.

A farmer who lives near Chicago

farmer's wife placed SSOO in gold for
ufe-keeping j„ „ | M >xftil of bran in
the cellar. One day, during the moth

of bran and carried it out to the barn
for the cow to eat. When the woman
oncltided to look at her treasure again,
it. was gone, and she believed it was
stolen. About a week Inter the cow was
taken ill, and acted so strangely that
when she died a veterinarian asked
leave to dissect her to discover the
cause. When the stomach was opened,
there was SSOO in gold, and the former's

| A Fleeting Show ol Hen. |
I Fun In a Railroad Coach for a Boj 1
Is with a Frayed Coat. S
NOT more than a dozen persons were
in the cur. These were a sharp
nosed man who divided his time be
tween glaring discontentedly out of the
window and asking the conductor why
the train didn't go fuster; an elderly
and benevolent-looking old lad}' who
sat across lhe aisle from the sharp
nosed man; three or four men who
lounged hack in their seats and dozed,
and a quartet of young people, two men
and two giris, who were amusing them
selves by singing college songs.
As the train pulled out of one of the
(Wintry villages a poorly dressed boy
who might have been 1G or 17 yenre old
came into the car and took the seat
across the aisle from the four young
people. Under his frayed coat was a
big bunch, suggesting that he was car
rying something concealed there. As
the young people struck into another
vong he looked anxiously ut them and
then down at the bunch under his coat.
Presently, at the end of a verse, there
sounded quite emphatically from the
coat this remark:
"Cut-cut-cut-cut%nidaweut!"
"Goodness!" exclaimed the girl who
had been singing the alto part, turning
wide brown eyes upon the youth. "He's
got a hen there. Did you hear it ?"
"Cutta-cutta cudduck!" made Itself
sufficiently audible for every one in tlie
car to hear it.
"She's a good hen," said the boy,
apologetically, "but she don't like mu
sic. I was scairt that you'd wake her
up."
"Cudduck cudawcut!" In rather tart
tones from beneath the coat seemed to
indicate that the good hen was tired of
being good and wanted to get out and
fly around the car awhile for a change.
"Shuttup!" said the boy, poking the
bunch with no great gentleness, a per
formance which brought forth a wrath
ful cackle.
By this time all the people in tlie ear
were craning their necks toward the
seat occupied by the boy. The old lady
put on her glasses to see better, and the
sharp nose of the discontented man
fairly glowed with indignant surprise.
He pointed a bony finger at the place
whence the hen language seemed te
proceed.
"Look here!" lie said. "Do you mean
to say you've got a hen under your
coat?"
The youth turned a deprecatory
glance upon his questioner, but evinced
no signs of meaning to say anything.
It wasn't really necessary that he
should.
"Cluck-cluck, cul-luck, cul-luek, cut
tacudawcut!" was a highly adequate
reply.
The sharp-nosed man's proboscis
spread its glow over his other features.
"It's an infernal shame!" he cried.
"Ain't it?" exclaimed the benevolent
old lady, bestowing an approving glance
uj/on him. "1 wouldn't wonder a mite
if the poor tiling smothered."
"Darn the poor thing!" ejaculated the
man with such emphasis that the old
lady's glasses fell off in consequence
of the shock to her system. "I ain't
kicking on the beastly chicken's ac
count. What I object to is that young
idiot making a cattle train out of this
sa r."
"Hens ain't cattle," suggested the old
lady with evidently pacific intent; but
strange to say this veracious and sooth
ing statement fuiled to mitigate the
complainant's wrath.
"Might just as well be," he said.
"Cudduck, cluck,cluck!"came in pro
icst to this statement.
"Say, you!" cried tlie man again,
aiming his loaded forefinger at the
youth. "What d'you mean by bringing
u hen Into this car?"
"What lien?" asked the boy, Inno
cently.
"Don't you try to fool with me* That
hen under your coat."
He waggled his forefinger at the
bunch, which promptly responded:
"Cut-cudaw-we-w-wciit!"
"Oh, thnt hen!" said the boy. placidly.
"1 brought her along so's I could get a
fresh-laid aig for my lunch."
The quartet across the aisle burst
into laughter, and the sharp-nosed man
swore softly but comprehensively.
"Don't you let him frighten sou."
said the brown-eyed girl encouraging
ly to the boy.
The benevolent old lady was so sur
prised nt the boy's statement that her
glasses fell off again, and as she groped
for them she said In rather awestruck
tones: *
"Goodness me! Docs he ent the egg
raw ?"
"Yes'tn." replied the boy. politely.
"Raw nigs is the only kind this hen
knows how to lay. I had a hen to home
we used to feed on sulphur matches,
and she laid hard-boiled nips, hut the
other day she drank some kerosene oil
nn' just naturally busted."
"1 don't believe it." exclaimed the old
b'jly. quite violently, and the quartet al
to et collapsed with glee.
\ look vf sadness overspread the
plain features of the youth, but before
be could reply to this aspersion npon
bis veracity, the bundle under bis coat
attracted his attention, a well as that
( everyone else, by observing in reso
nant tones:
"Cutta-cutta-cutta-cut-cudaw - w - w -
wcut!"
"Keep still," cried the boy, adminis
tering a second poke to the covering
coat.
"The society that looks after cruelty
to animals ought to be told," announced
the old lady. "I know that hen's suf
fering."
"Hen ain't an animal," snapped the
sharp-nosed man, getting back at her
for her previous information. "I know
I'm suffering, and unless—"
"Well, the society might look after
you, then," retorted the old lady with
some asperity.
"The aged person," observed one of
the young quartette, "is not so easy as
she looks. That was distinctly the re
tort rotten."
"I'll speak to the conductor." the
sharp-nosed man was declaring mean
while. "I didn't pay my money to ride
in a hen coop. We'll see if this young
rascal can bring his cackling chickens
among decent people."
"Cluck - cluck - clu - luck -cutta - cut,"
rounded in rather derisive tones.
The brown-eyed girl leaned over the
sisle and looked at the boy.
"Won't you please let me see the hen ?"
she said. s
"I'd like to, miss, but I dassent," said
the boy.
"Do you think I'd frighten it?" she
said, reproachfully.
"No'm, but thiß is an awful intelligent '
hen au' " —with a look of direct admira
tion—"like's not if she once seen you
she'd want to leave me right now and
never come back no more."
"Now will you be good?" said the
young man who sat with the girl.
She smiled entrancingly at the boy.
"I dos't believe you've got any hen
at all," she remarked, challenging]}'.
In reply he prodded the bundle, which
promptly replied.
"Cutta-cut, cutta-cut!"
"There! Did you hear it!" cried the
sharp-nosed man to the conductor who
had just entered the car. "What kind
of a road do you call this, where the pas
"WHERE IS IT?"
sengers have to roost with the chick
ens?"
"Where is it? Which one's got it?"
asked the conductor.
"Cutta-cut! Cutta-cut cudaw-cut!"
proclaimed clearly the location.
"Dook here," said the official, striding
up to the boy, who was nervouslj* fum
bling at his coat. "I've got a mind to
stop the train and fire you off right
here."
"What for?" inquired the youth in in
jured. tones. "You got my ticket."
"You throw that chicken out of the
window or get out."
"What chicken, mister?"
"Under your coat there. Come, no
nonsense, now. I won't stand for it."
The boy drrew his frayed coat closer
around the bundle.
"Tuck-a-tuck-a-tuck," came in smoth
ered tones from it.
"Mercy! The poor thing's near dead,"
cried the old lady. "What a shame!"
"Come, get out," ordered the conduc
tor, taking the boy by the shoulder.
The train was slowing down us it
drew near a station, and the proprietor
of the assortment of barnyard noises
got up remarking:
"This is my stution where I get off,
anyway."
"Cluck-cluck-cluck, tuck-ff-tuck!" evi
denced the fact that it was the station
where the bundle under the coat w anted
to get off also.
"I should like .to have seen what kind
of a hen that was," said the brown-eyed
girl, plaintively.
The youth paused, turned and.looking
directly into the brown eyes, delivered
himself of this surprising remark:
"I'll-cluck-cluek-cluck-tell you, miss.
Just because I tuck-a-tuck-a-tuck a bun
dle under my coat-cud a w-cut, an' it
cutta-cutta-elucks like a hen; that don't

He threw open his coat and behold
there was nothing there but a pair of
skates fastened together with n strap.
"Cluck-cluck-cluck, cutta-cutta-cut;
whur-ruck-a-dood'e-doo-00-00-oo!" he
chanted triumphantly as he marched
out of the car.
"He d.idn't have no hen at all!" cried
the old lady, her surprise getting the
! better of her grammar.
The sharp-nosed man hastily went
! into another car, but not in time to es

THE REAL ST. PATRICK.
His Real Life Is Almost Lo3t In
Fanoiful Legends.
Bat Hie Work In the Redemption of
Ireland from Paganlem Was an
Abiding: Reality—la Worthy
of All Honor.
[Copy right, 1898 ]
The life of the famous Irish saint Is,
as everybody knows, buried and almost
lest under a tangled debris of legend
and tradition, much of it grotesque in
the extreme. This was only to be ex
pected. It is a fate almost sure to
overtake a great religions leader in a
rude and uncritical age; but as a re
sult, any attempt to read out the true
biography of St. Patrick from the ex
isting records is like trying to decipher
an obscure and faded manuscript over
the face of which have been drown a
succession of arabesques and carica
tures.
Still, it Is not to be doubted that St.
Patrick both lived and accomplished a
great work—greater, indeed, than peo
ple in general are accustomed to give
him credit for—and even as to the de
tails of his life we are not left wholly
at the mercy of legendary lore. A few
apparently authentic documents re
main—chief among them the "Confes
sion" believed to have come from liis
own hand. The "Epistle" also is prob
ably genuine, but is far less impor
tant.
The "Confession" Is in
teresting document, to the student at
least. From it we get a very meager
account of the incidents of the author's
career—though it contains about nil
that is trustworthy—but the Impression
it gives of the great missionary's char
acter is clear and striking. It is easy
to see that he was a man well qualified
to win men's hearts—which is neces
sarily the first step toward saving their
souls.
St. Patrick was nn enthusiast—of
course—else he had been poorly fitted
for his task. He was also something of
a dreamer, but a happy strain of prac
ticability pervades his dreaming; it
never fails to come to something. His
visions on the hills of Antrim, where
the boyish captive spent so many
nights in prayer under the open sky,
are but the prelude to his escape from
slavery; and afterward, when he had
returned to his home and friends, the
voices that haunted his sleep, calling
him back to Ireland, resulted in bring
ing an eutire nation into the Christian
faith. To "visionaries" of this type
the world is deeply indebted.
Indeed, in the "Confession" there is
no hint of the exaggeration aud ex
travagance which appears so strongly
in the "Lives" of later date. Good
sense, sincerity and modesty are the
dominant notes. He believed in his
mission—fervently believed in it—but
so far was he from imagining himself
ready for an undertaking of such mag
nitude without special training, that
he spent many years in careful prepara
tion at the best religious school acces
sible.
True, lie never attained to any ex
traordinary scholarship. In his "Con
fession," which was written as a reply
to those who declared that lie was unfit
to be made a bishop, he freely concedes
himself "indoctus" and "rustJcissimus"
—unlearned and very plain man: arid
while the fact that he wrote in Latin
proves that he had sufficient education
for all ordinary purposes, his peculiar
use of that language, showing many
♦ races of Celtic idiom, makes it evident
that his frankness was no false mod
esty but simply honesty, ne meant
just what he so.id, as strong men com
monly do. And apropos of these Cel
tic turns of expression, it is of interest
to note that, although not born on
Erin's soil, he was of strictly Irish
stock, since liis birthplace was in a re
gion almost exclusively settled by the
Irish Picts.
There are qualities far more impor
tant than finished scholarship—which,
indeed, is ever liable to waste itself in
pedantic trifling—and these sturdier
traits the victorious Irish evangelist
undoubtedly possessed. What one of
his critics could have done his work?
It was well for his mission that hi*
sympathies were not dried away by
the dust of libraries. All the better be
cause lie was "indoctus" bis words
commanded the attention of the rude
clansmen; all the more because be was
"rusticissimus." like themselves, they
trusted and believed bim. To this sim
plicity add dauntless courage and ab
solute sincerity, and you have the se
cret of his wonderful success.
It is a strong man whose work lives
after him; and the results of St. Pat
rick's labors were felt for centuries and
extended far beyond the island he re
deemed from paganism. In the period
which followed his dentil the Trish
church was tlie most zealous and ac
tive in all Christendom. Although
others—and they, too. are worthy of
praise—whose achievements were more
spectacular because they addressed
themselves chiefly to kings and nobles,
have received the greater share of
credit for converting pagan England,
most of the real work was done by
Trish missionaries, animated by the
very spirit of St. Patrick. These were
the men who. braving danger and
hardship, overcoming the obstacles of
nn alien tongue and racial prejudice,
penetrated to every hamlet in North
umberland and the Marchlands and
preached the Gospel to the stubborn
villagers until their Christianity be
came a fact, not a mere profession.
Little as we know about the life of
St.. Patrick, his work Is an abiding real
ity; and It is wife to assume that the
qualities which appear in the church
he founded were not wanting in him
self. It is unfortunate that a charac
ter so admirable has been veiled behind
such a motley tissue of fanciful
legends—but the Irish people make no
mistake in honoring the name of Si
