Bism ark's Doo.— It is given to sonic dogs, 
especially if they mix much in politics, to ac- 
quire a world-wide notoriety. This lean 
black dog which follows Prince Bismark 
around, and among other peculiar traits mani- 
fests a deadly antipathy to French poodles, 
and always howls when he sees an English 
newspaper, has again come into public notice 
by this escapade: 
Since the attempt upon the emperor’s life 
by Nobiling, the nervousness under which 
Bismark has long been suffering has violently 
increased. The prince, when thus suffering, 
controls his temper with difficulty. He 
stamps his foot and gesticulates excitedly 
when in discussion. Something of this kind 
occurred during the interview with Prince 
Gortschakoff, and the dog, mistaking the 
eagerness of his master for anger, sprang 
suddenly at the throat of the Russian diplo- 
matist. Happily Bismarck was as quick as 
the dog, and had seized and thrown him aside 
before he had fastened his teeth in the person 
of Gortschakoff. Among certain classes in 
Berlin this unpleasant incident is spoken of 
as an omen. The dog’s instinct did not de- 
ceive him, they say. Prince Gortschakoff is 
plotting mischief against the chancellor, and 
the dog saw it in his eyes. 
• 
Fboo Butter.— A Middletown (Conn.) 
man put a pail of milk into a spring of water 
near the house to cool. Two hours thereafter, 
upon going to the spring for his milk, he was 
surprised to find, instead of milk, a large roll 
of butler, surmounted by an enormous bull- 
frog. His frogship had jumped from the 
water in the pail, and in endeavoring to ex- 
tricate himself from the milk by the action of 
his legs, had turned this rich and creamy 
milk into butter. 
This offers a new industry for the toiling 
millions. Let some enterprising dairyman 
start a frog pond, train his frogs to churn, 
and teach them to crow when the butter 
comes. 
— The people of the coast of Labrador are 
represented to be in a dreadful plight. The 
fisheries failed last fall, and the traders, who 
usually barter supplies with thc-m for fish and 
oil, consequently have withdrawn from that 
region. Nothing of consequence will grow 
there, and some families have died of starva- 
tion. 
Tiffany & Co., Silversmiths, 
Jewellers, and Importers, have 
always a large stock of silver 
articles for prizes for shooting, 
yachting, racing and other 
sports, and on request they pre- 
pare special designs for similar 
purposes. Their TIMING 
WATCHES are guaranteed 
for accuracy, and are now very 
generally used for sporting and 
Scientific requirements. TIF- 
FANY & CO. are also the agents 
in America for Messrs. PATEI-C, 
PHILIPPE & CO., of Geneva, of 
whose celebrated watches they 
have a full line. Their stock of 
Diamonds and other Precious 
Stones, General Jewelry, Artis- 
tic Bronzes and Pottery, Electro- 
plate and Sterling Silverware 
for Household use, fine Station- 
ery and Bric-a-brac, is the 
largest in the world, and the 
public are invited to visit their 
establishment without feeling 
the slightest obligation to pur- 
chase.
