THE WORKING DOGS.
AMERICAN CONSULS IN BELGIUM AND
GERMANY REPORT ON THEM.
A Problem In Breeds—Their Draft Pow
er They Are Willing: Pullers The
Qdestion of Forage—Are Easily Cared
For—4. Cruelty to Animals Crusade.
Some time ago the state department
eant to consuls instructions to report on
dogs as draft animals. The result is a
collection of much curious information.
The American consul at Antwerp says:
“I cannot better illustrate the lack of
attention to breed than by narrating an
experience which I had a few days ago
while riding on my bicycle in the coun
try about ten miles from Antwerp. See
ing upon the door of a modest one story
brick cottage of a peasant a placard with
the words ‘tehiens a vendre’ (dogs to
sell), I dismounted, knocked a,t. thp door
and at once found myself in the pres
ence of tjie proprietor of the premises.
After the greetings and after informing
the gentleman of the purpose of my
visit he gave me the following state
ment, assisted by periodical questions
thrown into the narration by myself:
“‘I have six fine dogs to sell. Three
of them have short hair, and three are
sheared, so as to please everybody.
These dogs are just ready for use—
strong, healthy and just a little under
2 years old. I know these dogs well,
because I raised them myself. I want
125 francs(about $25) apiece, but I will
take less for spot cash. The breed? Oh,
mon Dieu, I can’t tell you much about
the breed. The breed, makes nd differ
ence. What you want is a strong, well
trained dog, and that’s what mine are.
However, I may tell you that my six
dogs are all from the same father and
mother. The father is, if I remember
correctly, one-fourth Belgian, two
fourths Danish and three-fourths Scotch,
and the mother is, I think, three-fourths
Belgian and one-fourth English.’
“The dog generally in use varies in
size and color, but in probably the ma
jority of -cases-he is, when standing,
about two feet high, of a dark gray or
dark brown color, has short hair and
the tail cut. In addition to his work as
a draft animal he is a faithful guardian
of his master’s home.
“It isdifficult to say,”continues this
consul, “exactly the weight of the load
which can be drawn by one dog, for the
reason that he is harnessed alone much
less frequently than in company with
one, two, three and sometimes four
others. In the latter case they are har
nessed abreast. In the cities and towns,
when employed by butchers, bakers,
laundries, etc., to draw their delivery
carts, one dog is often used and is har
nessed under the cart. The cart is pro
vided with two handles, like those of a
wheelbarrow, which are held by a boy,
the boy* thus guiding the cart through
the narrow streets while the dog pulls.
In case of need, the boy assists by push
ing the cart as he would a wheelbarrow.
Sometimes two dogs are placed under
the cart, but not more.
“The highest utility is attained where
two, three, four or five are harnessed
abreast and placed in front of the cart,
which they draw just'as horses do. It i®
in this way that the peasants come to
town with their vegetables and flowers
in the morning, and in this way they re
turn in the afternoon, seated in their
carts, happy and smiling when they have
been able to sell their loads, and in this
contentment the dogs seem to join as
they move briskly along, with their
steady, easy trot, toward home. A team
of three or four of these dogs can draw
500 or 600 pounds for several hours. ”
The consul at Ghent says the level
plains of western Belgium and Holland
are especially suitable for the employ
ment of dogs for hauling purposes.
While in monntainous regions they are
not practicable for heavy loads, still
even in slightly rolling country they are
able to outdistance horses for long hauls.
Eor example, the distance between
Ghent and Brussels is 84 miles. Ordi
nary horses require four hours to cover
it, while a team of dogs will easily go
over the ground in three hours without
any apparent fatigue. A good team of
two to four dogs will haul a peddler’s
load from 5 a. m. to 8 p. m., with only
such short intervals of rest as they may
obtain during the sale of goods.
, The_Belgian dog may be put to work
when "about a year old and'can be em
ployed daily during eight or nine years.
He generally lives to be 10 or 11 years
of age. Food and maintenance are tri
fling items of expense. One large dog
can subsist on the kitchen waste of a
household of five or six persons. Prop
erly speaking, daily meat is indispensa
ble, but very few of these Belgian ani
mals get it. They should have daily a
pound of meat; horse meat will answer..
If they receive that much in a week,
they are lucky. In the country districts
the dog’s jrfd is exclusively milk, bread

and vegetables, but still he seems to be
healthy and to thrive on it. If specially
purchased, the food of five or six dogs
j will average 6or 7 cents apiece per day.
The care and attention required are
slight At night the dog must be given
a good kennel, full of biraw, and left un
- chained. It should be noted that his
, feet never need attention, and that he
I is likewise proof against all kinds of
weather.
! “From all that can be observed or
t learned by inquiry, ” the consul gener
i al at Frankfort reports, “the dogs, at
i least those used as draft animals in this
region, take to their work with entire
. willingness. Nothing is so irksome to
the canine spirit as to be confined in
the kennel or left at home when the
1 master goes abroad. Any sign of pre
’ paring the cart or wagon for a sortie af
’ sects the working dog much as the sight
’ of a gun or shooting costume agitates a
setter or foxhound. If left at home
‘ while the cart is taken to town by hand,
’ he is apt to howl disconsolately until it
r returns* Onge harnessed he trots* to his
’ place under the wagon, and when used
on a milk route or other uniform serv
' ice he learns the way and the place and
r i
. j average duration of each stop as well as
3 ' his master, in whose absence he guards
! the wagon and its load with a fierce
, 1 fidelity which no wheedling can corrupt
3 or fatigue impair. Barely under ordina
ry circumstances does a dog have to be
. urged to greater exertion. If spoken to
f at all, it is usually to restrain him from
drawing the cart faster than the driver
t cares t< walk.”
[ The consul at Hamburg says: “I have
noticed that the people become especial
t ly attached to their draft dogs, who are
their constant companions in business,
[ and that they treat them well as a rule.
The dogs themselves are the very hard-
; est workers and enter into their work
[ with far more spirit and vim than most
. horses. It is a frequent sight to see their
masters obliged to constantly restrain
them from pulling. It is sometimes very
3 pitiable, however, to see them pulled
out of shape by overwork and overload
t ing. Their crooked legs, nervous tem
peraments, blurred eyes and tender feet
tell their tale of fidelity and suffering.
. They ferociously protect the cart and its
I contents during the absence of their
3 masters and seem to feel a personal in
i terest in the business.
“I took occasion to interview the
3 Hamburg Society For the Prevention of
[ Cruelty to Animals on this subject and
, learned that dogs which are used as
i draft animals are seldom able to stand
i the work more than five years without
. their spines becoming affected and that
such draft dogs as are from time to time
brought to the dog hospital of the socie
ty for treatment are generally beyond
■ recovery. I was also told that the society
had repeatedly requested the Hamburg
government to forbid the use of dogs as
, draft animals and that, although its ef
forts in this direction had thus far proved
absolutely unsuccessful, it intended to
continue to use its best efforts to have
the practice abolished. Members of the
society must bind themselves not to pur
chase anything from tradespeople who
deliver their wares in carts hauled by
dogs.—St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

Boato'.i’H Clerical Romany.
“I have it on the authority of Wil
liam Dean Howells and other eminent
Bostonians that there is in the capital
of Massachusetts a certain clergyman
of widespread fame who, unknown to
the world at large, is a Romany. Every
summer this reverend gentleman cannot
resist joining some gypsy band and
roaming from place to place as his kin
dred have done since within the memory
of man. Little do the good man’s con
gregation dream that, while they pic
ture him as sedately journeying abroad,
he is sitting beside gypsy campfires and
chattering the wild Romany tongue, to
all intents and purposes a vagrant. But,
as Mr. Howells pointed out, none ever
heard it said that this preacher preached
any the worse for his wild, free life over

Hise of the Brain.
The British Association For the Ad
vancement of Science at its annuo) meet
ing took up among other things the
study of the structure of human beings.
It comments on the manner in which
the human anatomy is put together in
order to give grace and freedom of ac
tion. These peculiarities are to a great
extent wanting in the lower animals.
The marked superiority of the hand
over the fore paw of any creature is
dwelt upon. The brain comes in for spe
cial study. It is said that the brains of
boys weigh more at their birth than
those of girls and that men of great in
tellectual power have brains that weigh
55 or 60 ounces, while brains of inibe
ciles may not weigh over 30 ounces.
> bp prqbably is true,
the question arises as to whether quail
tity is the thing to be sought after in
the brain. Many of our intellectual
giants have been exceedingly small men,
with heads that could by no possibility
contain a. 60 ounce brain.

Pullman’s Giant Passenger.
There was one story of his career
that Mr. Pullman used to tell with
manifest delight.
One night, going out of Chicago, a
long, lean, ugly man, with a wart on
his cheek, came into the depot. He paid
George M. Pullman 50 cents, and half
a berth was assigned him. Then he
kicked off his boots, which were of sur
prising length, turned into the berth,
and, having an easy conscience, was
sleeping like a healthy baby before the
car left the depot. Along came another
passenger and paid his 50 cents. In two
minutes he was back at George Pull
man.
‘'There’s a man in that berth of
mine,” said he hotly, “and he’s about
ten feet high. How am I going to sleep
there, I’d like to know? Go and look at
him.”
In went Pullman—mad too. The
tall, lank man’s knees were under his
chin, his arms were stretched across
the bed, and his feet were stored com
fortably—for him. Pullman shook him
until he awoke, and then told him if
he wanted the whole berth he would
have to pay sl. "
“My dear sir, ” said the tall man, “a
contract is a contract. I have paid you
50 cents for half this berth, and, as
you see, I am occupying it. There’s the
other half,” pointing to a strip about
six inches wide. “Sell that and don’t
disturb me again. ’’ And, so saying,
the man with a wart on his face went
to sleep again. He was Abraham Lin
coln.—Pittsburg Dispatch.

Mrs. Wu « Costumes Excite Wonder end
Admiration In Washington.
Os all the feminine costumes worn at
state receptions in the national capital
those of Mrs. Wu, wife of the Chinese
minister, seem to excite the greatest in
terest and wonder. Mrs. Wu, be it
known, is a celestial aristocrat of the
first water. She is of pure Chinese
blood, unmixed with any of ‘Manchuri
an origin. More than that, she is a
“little foot woman,” which, as is well
MRS. WU.
known, is a passport to swell society
anywhere in southern China. She is of
equal official rank with her husband
and may at any time enter or leave a
room with him instead of following
meekly behind.
As the right to wear special decora
tions and forms of apparel.goes with all
degrees of Chinese rank and as Mrs.
Wu is an oriental blue blood of ancient
lineage there is nothing quiet about her
costume when she is dressed for state
occasions. Perhaps the most striking
thing about her court gown is the eagle
emblazoned with golden threads on her
breast. The tunic of purple and black
affords a magnificent background for
embroideries of extreme richness and
brilliancy. The petticoat, which is one
of the prettiest parts of a Chinese lady’s
dress, hangs about a foot below the up
per robe and is of bright reds and blues
with golden panels.
The peculiar headgear which Mrs.
Wu wears is unlike any conception of
the milliner’s art with which we are
familiar. It is a turban consisting of a
simple band of black silk, with a single
but splendid jewel in front and a clus
ter of small flowers at each ear. The
manner in which Mrs. Wu wears her
hair does not indicate that it is merely
the Chinese fashion of the day. It de
notes the province from which she
came, for in each province tH&e is a
special coiffure which has been adopted
for all time and which is never varied.

A Sermon With a Point to It.
A clergyman in the west country had
two curates, one a comparatively old
man, the other very young. With the
former he had not been able to work 1
agreeably, and on being invited to an
other living he accepted it and took
the young curate with him. Naturally
there was a farewell sermon, and we
can imagine the feelings of the curato
who was to be left behind when he
heard the text given out, “Abide ye
here with the ass, and I and the lad
will go yonder and worship. ”
Sterne once declared in regard to the
widely respected maxim, “De mortuis
nil nisi bonum. ” that there was nothing
right about it but its Latin. This view
was evidently shared by a certain Edin
burgh minister who, being asked to
preach the funeral sermon of a miserly
brother cleric, chose as his text the
words, “And the beggar died. ”—Cham

A Domestic Echo.
An cast end naan went down town in

the time the car reached Dunham avenue
be was fast asleep. The conductor came
after his fare, but the citizen was obliv

forward and shook him. The citizen
swayed slightly, but he didn’t wake up.
Then the conductor reached forward
again and gave the sleeper a violent
push. The latter merely shook himself
and then growled in a distinctly audible
voice:
“Quit your pushing 1 There’s plenty

The laugh that followed woke him
