BADGER AND PRAIRIE DOG. 
Pete, the badger, one of the few privileged 
;haracters in the Bronx Park Zoo, has grown 
in the esteem of the keepers since they dis¬ 
covered that he was the equal of a hound in fol¬ 
lowing a scent. 
It all came about through the escape of one 
of the prairie dogs from his corral, says the 
Times. Early in the summer the prairie dogs 
began a series of underground tunnels which led 
beneath the sunken wire inclosure and out to 
freedom. One morning the keepers found the 
Drairie dog corral deserted. Over by the duck- 
oond they discovered that the little animals had 
begun a new village, and were enjoying their 
liberty immensely. The keepers poured sand 
jdown all the newly made holes, the dogs 
tunneled to the surface, and were captured and 
taken back to the old corral. A trench was dug 
tround the corral and filled in with concrete. 
That stopped further efforts of the dogs to es¬ 
cape until one day last week, when one of them 
climbed the wire inclosure and got away. 
Pete, the badger, is allowed to leave his 
;;age in the daytime and wander about the park. 
Saturday morning Keeper Charles Snyder was 
in his office when he heard a commotion just 
outside his window. He ran out just in time to 
see Pete, the badger, with his nose to the 
ground, running toward the new elephant 
house. 
Snyder followed him over the ridges and 
down the valleys. They had almost reached the 
elephant house when Snyder,- looking ahead, 
saw what he at first thought was a rabbit, mak¬ 
ing the best time he could. It proved later to 
be the runaway prairie dog. Pete was trailing 
him, and was gaining rapidly. 
Snyder yelled to two of the other keepers, 
and they joined him. The prairie dog was by 
this time nearly exhausted. Snyder and the 
other keepers outran the badger and caught the 
prairie dog iust before Pete came up, panting 
and growling. 
PARTRIDGE NETTING. 
An ancient writer, in giving instructions for 
the use of the setting dog and the netting of 
partridges before the advent of the, fowling- 
piece, according to the Shooting Times, says: 
“When you perceive the dog stop of a sudden, 
you must make up to him, for without doubt 
he hath set the particles, and as soon as you 
come to him command him to go nearer; but 
if he goes not, lies still, or stands shaking his 
tail, and now and then looks back, then cease 
from urging him further and take your cir¬ 
cumference, walking fast, with a careless eye 
looking straight before the dog, and thereby 
see how the covey lies, whether close or strag¬ 
gling. Then commanding the dog to lie still, 
draw forth your net and prick one end of the 
ground, and spread your net all open, and so 
cover as many particles as you can; which done, 
make in with a noise and spring up the particks, 
and they will no sooner rise than be entangled 
in the net.”

Every one who owns a dog should possess this invalu¬ 
able book, which has been long in preparation, and has 
been pronounced by a competent authority for ahead of 
any other work yet attempted upon the subject. The 
minuteness with which every detail is considered leaves 
little or nothing for any future work to attempt. Es¬ 
pecially important chapters are those on eczema, the 
different kinds of mange, poisons, distemper, hydro¬ 
phobia, ear and eye diseases, vaginal diseases, diseases 
of the urinary and sexual organs, and pneumonia (an 
especially valuable contribution), also the portions of 
the work which are devoted to symptoms and diagnosis. 
The work is entirely devoid of technical terms, and is 
written in such entertaining style, that any one with a 
love of dogs would find it not only valuable and help¬ 
ful, but interesting as well.
