The famous St. Bernard dog trained to a show of religious practices by a Benedictine monk * lias a rival in a collie owned by \rchbisliop Hyan , of Philadel phia. The collie struck up an ac quaintance with the archbishop me day while he was taking his customary walk in Falrmemnt park , and thereafter stuck elose to the heels of the prelate , even to the doors of the episcopal resi dence. "Begone ! " commanded the arch bishop , who wan afraid that some one might think he was trying to smuggle the handsome animal into the house. The dog went sheepishly down the steps , but , caching | sight of the archbish op's kindly look , bounded up again , wagging his tail. "Well , come in , then , " said the prelate , and the collie obeyed with a bound. Since1 that day , a year ago , Ju lias been an at ( ache of the arch bishop's household. lie knows how to put his paws together in an attitude of prayer , he "sings , " thumps the piano with his big paws and exhibits penitence fAr misbehavior. The students around the archiepiscopal resi dence have taken the greatest pains with his religious educa tion , and the collie would no more think of barking during religious service than he would of trying to pick a quarrel with the sculptured hound on the lawn. During reli gions processions he assumes of his own accord an attitude of re spect , sitting on his hind legs and remaining motionless until the procession passes. The dogliad not been long in the tossession of the archbishop be fore Mgr. Ryan discovered thar le belonged to another man who vas much chagrined at his loss. This real owner approached the irehbishop us he and his collie , vere strolling in the park on" lay. " 1 beg your pardon , sir , " said he man , "but that's my dog. " " .Maybe it is , " said his excel- ene.v , laughing. " 1 never was sur le was mine ; he followed m lonie. " The stranger called io the ani- nal , whicli seemed delighted to see him. Then lie showed the arch bishop that the collie had a pedi gree which would arouse the envy of half the bluebloode'd dogs in the ity. "I've spent weeks hunting for lim , " resumed the granger , "and now that I've found him yon can iiave him. " The archbishop offered to buy he dog , but the man insisted thar heaccept thecollie as a gift , and he lid. Every morning now the col lie accompanies Mgr. Ryan on his walk through the park. He < iunvs the hours of the services in the cathredal and can be usually seen at the side door-waiting for ! he archbishop to come out. Whether there is service or not he never tries to enter the church. The dog's value is rated at about ? 500 , but five times that amount could not buy him 'from the archbishop. Prizes for Servants. In celebration of the empcitu' of Austria's birthday a short time ago 20 purses , each contain ing the equivalent of $75 were offered for competition among domestic servants who could prove long and satisfactory service in respectable situations. The qualifications of the winners showed some truly remarkable periods of service. One of the win ners a valet had been in the service of one man for 4(5years. ( A maid servant of nearly SO years of age had served about IIJ ) years in an orphanage , where she was stil in active employment when she re ceived the award. Another worn an , aged 74 years , had entered the serviceofafamilyas scullery inaie and was still with the sam'e fam ily , after 43 years' service. All of the winners had been in their sit nations more than HO years.
