Dom Manuel’s Scrappy Dog.

Two ladies walking in Richmond Park, London, about a week ago were horrified to have the little black and white terrier that accompanied them suddenly set upon by a fierce and very much in earnest bulldog. The ladies shrieked and the master of the bulldog appeared at once and proceeded to separate the combatants, using a whip freely and pulling his dog away from the smaller animal. When the terrier had been restored to his owner the young gentleman raised his hat and apologized humbly for the trouble his dog had caused and expressed the hope that the little terrier would not suffer from his rough treatment and that the ladies would recover from their alarm. Whereupon the two ladies discovered that the pallid young man who'was so very courteous was none other than the dethroned king of Portugal, Dom- Manuel, who was taking his customary morning stroll in the park.
