A DOG'S BROKEN HEATIT.-Springaeld, Mass., April 

 14. — A prominent and well known citizen of Springfield 

 owned a few years ago a fine intelligent pointer dog called 

 Elijah. The dog was partly "moon "blind," as inability to 

 see after sunset is called, giving his eyes a peculiar far- 

 away look. The family of Elijah's owner consisted of a 

 wife and three or four well-grown intelligent children. 

 Elijah was a part of and the pet of the family. The wife 

 and mother sickened and died. During the latter part of 

 her sickness Elijah was excluded from the sick room. The 

 evening of the mother's death Elijah was found crouched 

 at the threshold of the. chamber where his dead mistress 

 lay, and with pathetic face and attitude begging each one 

 who approached for admission. He was admitted, aud 

 going quietly to the bed he touched with his nose the poor 

 dead face and fingers of his mistress, looked long and earn- 

 estly at her, turned, and with dropping head and tail, left 

 the room, passed out of the house into the night, and from 

 that moment nothing has been seen or heard of Elijah. 

 This was six years ago. The dog was known by score's of 

 people and yet no sign or tidings of him has come since he 

 passed from the bedside of his dead friend into the darkness 

 of that summer night. His body has never been found. 

 Where did he go? The dog's heart was broken. When the 

 fact of the dread invasion of death found his dumb intelli- 

 gence it was the supreme calamity to him as well as to the 

 human household, and he carried it somewhere into the 

 solitude and silence and died with it alone.— E. H. Lath- 

 ROP. 



THE BEAGLE CLUB'S NAME ALTERED.— Recently 

 the American-English Beagle Club voted on the amend- 

 ments to its then existing constitution, the principal one 

 being to change its name to the 'American Beagle Club," 

 which was almost unanimously carried, and hereafter it 

 will be known under the above title. The reason for the 

 change is that the beagle hound has so improved and is now 

 so far ahead of its English brother that the latter is out- 

 classed by its American descendant, and the club thought 

 decidedly proper to adopt that name. The proposition to 

 raise the dues from S2 to $5 was lost, but the amendment 

 for dropping members iu arrears with their dues over three 

 months was carried. The club seems to have made a de- 

 cided advance this year, several new members being placed 

 on the roll, while others ha ve sent in their names for admis- 

 sion. Beagle owners and breeders desirous of joining should 

 address Louis Smith, Saginaw, Eeast Side, Mich., care of 

 Evening News.— (Saginaw, April 10, 1890). 



A NEW BEAGLE CLUB.— There was an informal meet- 

 ing of a number of beagle men on April 3, 1890, at the New 

 England Kennel Club show in Mechanics' Hall, Boston, 

 Mass., in regard to the formation of a new beagle club, 

 the objects of the club being to hold field trials similar to 

 those help for setters and pointers, and to adopt a standard 

 for the. judging at shows. It is important that as many 

 beagle men as possible be present at the next meeting, which 

 is to be held at the Quincy House, Boston, Mass., on Satur- 

 day, April 19, at 7:30 P. M., in Parlor G. All who are at all 

 interested in the running, breeding or showing of beagles 

 are invited to be at this meeting, or, if unable to attend, to 

 send their name to the secretary and their opinion of the 

 way matters should be conducted iu regard to the trials, as 

 the opinion of every owner of a beagle is desired.— F. W. 

 Chapman, Secretary (Melrose. Mass.).
