How Deliyannis Saved His Dog.
The Vienna Fremdenblatt gives an anecdote of the Greek ex-Premier Deliyannis, which places him in a more amiable light than has been shed upon him by his public performances. He is a great lover of dogs, and he had one which was as dear to him as the famous lteichshund to the Chancellor of the German Empire. When he was crossing from the Pirieus to Constantinople on board of an English steamer, the dog fell into the water. Deiiyannis entreated the captain to stop the vessel in order that he might rescue his dog. “Impossible, ” replied our countryman ; “my orders are strict. I dare not stop even if it were a man instead of a dog overboard.” “Good!” laconically answered the Greek, and at the same moment he sprang over the ship’s side, and swam for liis dog. The sequel may be guessed. The English sailor could not resist such a spectacle of bravery, and in spite of his strict orders he stopped his ship and saved both the man and the dog.—Pall Mall Gazette.
