New York, July 3. Special cable
and telegraphic communications re
ceived by Bradstreets, how the fol
lowing changes in available supplies
as compared with last account.

bushel3. Afloat for and in Europe de

DOGS
After these instances how tame
seems the rivalry of two wealthy men
of New York for blue ribbons at the
recent dog show! One of them offered
$10,000 by cable for a famous London
collie, to be sent him in time for the
show. Yet a collie is happiest not
when lined up with a hundred others
at a bench show, but when racing the
snow-beaten hills to round up a few
silly sheep, all for love of a shepherd
who never owned 10,000 cents at a
time.
Humble friends of man, dogs are
all generosity and all service. No sane
man ever starved to death while
watching a dog's dead body, as the
dog immortalized in. Scott's "Helvel
lyn" did for his master. And no dog
would obejet to the burial in a dog
cemetery of a good man who loved
dogs, as men in Louisville, Ky., are
objecting by legal process to the
burial in Cave Hill cemetery of Billy,
which once saved lives by running jup
a railroad track with a red lantern to
stop a train when the watchman was
disabled." New York World.
