We continued our walk down
the street and soon camo to th)
Old Bridge, celebrated in the
“The Twa Brigs; this old bridge
is built in four arches and shows
the many years of services by the
marks of time on it, and is only
used now by foot passengers.
It is said to have been built by
two ladies during the thirteenth
century and that their effigies were
cut in the stone, but time has ef
faced them.
We here turned back for a walk
along the race course road, on ei
ther side of which are beautiful!
houses and farms that are highly
cultivated,
We soon come to the little cot
tage in which Burnes was born it
is a very small house one story,
very small windows, thatch roof;
the floor is clay and in one corner
is what is called the bed plac e
built just so as abed will fit in and
it was here that Robert Burns first
saw the light.
About a quarter further on we
come to Alloway Kirk. Right in
side and near the gate is the mon
uments of Williams Burns and
Agnes Brown,the parents of the
Poet.
The tomb of the father bare thi®
inscription.
“O ye whose cheek the-tear of pity stain,,
Draw near with plusrererence and attend;
Here liethe loving husband’* dear remains
The tender father and the generous friend,”
The pitying heart that fell for human woa,
The dauntless heart that feared no hu man
pride
The friend of man, to vice alone a foe,
For even his failing leaned te virtue » side.’
The old church of Alloway
staii'is near by,lt is said to have
been erected in 1516 nothing now
remains except the walls and the
old bell still hangs in the gable it
bears the dute of 1657.
Just a short distance,but on the
opposite side ot the road is the
Burns Monument about 60 feet
high . The base is triangular in the
center of which is a room, above
the triangle are Corinthian Col
umns capped by a cupalo’ Around
the Monument is a beautiful flow
er garden that also contains stat
ues of Tain O’Shauter and Souten
Johnny that are very fine indeed.
The room in the monument con
tains many relics of the poet,
among others the Bible, the, in
scriptions still plain, presented by
him to Highland Mary.
Crossing the walk, we walked
along the banks of the Doon and
were soon at the “Auld Brig over
which Tam O’Shanter took his
eventful ride.
Well mounted on hi, Rtey mare Meg—
A better never lifted leg—
He gkelpit on through dub and rain,

Continueing our walk some dis
tance we came to the top of the
high hill, and what a beautiful pic

How we no h'ttH to part with th"

I In June 1893 i lit.de puppy of
I the Shepherd species, came toCapt,
J J tjepoud Avenue
Il was so thin And p'ttiful
in appearance that it was taken
in and fed It showed no disposi
tion to leave and supposing that
some one left it at the gate in
order to get rid of it all of us de
cided to adopt it. In a few days
the little fellow showed great im
provement and became quite sprite
ly and playful. After much dis
cussion the name given him was
“Mark Antony. ” Day by day the
little pet grew in beauty and favor,
till he git to the fu 1 statue of
young doghood.
His familiar voice through the
still houis of the night was ever a
welcome sound, and his many
pranks during the day added cheer
and merriment to the household.
All learned to love him as though
h« were one of us . He grew to be
a handsome little fellow and the
favorite of the neighborhood, Mon
day night September the 17th.
proved to be a 8‘ d period in the
Life of little Mark. In some way
and at some time during the night
he was run ovet by a street car aud
bis left hind leg was crushed, This
rendered him a cripple with but
few ctemces for recovery.
But as long as there was life
there remained hope, and a physi
cian was at once called in. With
case and skill, the wounds were
dressed and all things conducive
to his comfort and good, done, for
five days. The young ladies watch
ed him and with love and tender
ness administered to his needs.
Finnally the criscis came. The
physician called Friday night and
after exmioning, the case condi
tion fully, he .announced that he
would have to be killed, that re
covery was impossible, as the sad
words fell upon the ears of al) who
loved him, tears filled every eye
and coused every cheek. After ad
ministering a drug to deaden the
system the handsome little fellow
was cairred away and killed. But j
a little dog, he was, but we all loved
him aud miss him. Thus ended the
life of “Mark Antony.’’

Choyinski Shoots Himself
Jackson, Mich., Sept 22. —Joe
Choyinski, the Californian pugilist
who was to spar Joe Tansy ten
rounds this evening, accidently
shot himself this afternoon through
the right hand with a revolver,
the bullet passing through the
metacarpal bone.
It will be months before the
wound will entirely heal and the
probability is that the Calafornia
boy will never be able to enter the
ring again.
